DANIELS DRIVE EXTENSION <br />PROJECT UPDATE: Mark introduced Regan Eberhart, who was in attendance <br />for the project update. Mark stated that the design for the <br />Mt. Daniels Drive Extension was done in house by staff <br />and is now ready for construction by county forces. Luke <br />Huck explained that when county right of way was staked it <br />was discovered that there were structures and trees in the <br />right of way. After discussion with the Eberhart's who are <br />residents along the project location they requested that <br />staff preserve the tree that is located within county right of <br />way. County staff worked on a new design reducing the <br />road width and was re -staked after the modification. Staff <br />also looked at a design to create an "S" curve to avoid <br />removing said tree within the right of way. Commissioner <br />Jewell questioned if the tree creates any safety issues by <br />remaining within the right of way. Luke replied that it could. <br />Further discussion was held. <br />Board Direction: Remove tree from County right of way. <br />FEMA CTP WHISKEY CREEK <br />NOTICE OF AWARD: There is now newer technology that can create a new two <br />dimensional map that the current maps don't show. Staff <br />requested to use this new mapping program and FEMA is <br />allowing this. Previously Currier Creek was done and now <br />staff is looking at Whiskey Creek for the next project. <br />Karen Hodges was able to get a grant finalized for said <br />project. The mapping that was done in years past was not <br />acceptable to the County so new mapping will be done. <br />Board Direction: No Direction <br />BUREAU OF RECLAMATION <br />SCHAAKE LEVEE UPDATE: Mark stated that for numerous years the Bureau of <br />Reclamation has been working to set back the County's <br />Schaake Levee.
