Road and Maintenance Concerns: The plows were out a couple of times and a few areas needed some additional sanding. Duane said that we should be able to get about 5 seasons out of the front blades on the plow because they are higher quality than the ones for the side of the plow. The vests and barricade lights came in. We are going to build new barricades instead of having the County do it.
