Kewaunee County Highway Department facilities could receive a major facelift if the Kewaunee County Board of Supervisors approves the plan Tuesday.
On the agenda for Tuesday’s meeting is approval of the design, construction and renovations for the department’s main highway shop in Footbridge and its facilities in Algoma, Casco and Stangelville. The agenda also calls for the board to authorize borrowing up to $4.2 million for the improvements.
Speaking ahead of last month’s meeting, Kewaunee County Board Chair Dan Olson said he believes the project will benefit taxpayers, who ultimately are funding the work.
He added that he is already working with county administrators on a more regular maintenance plan so the buildings do not fall into disrepair after the upgrades are completed.
The Kewaunee County Board also will hear from several department heads and accept a drug trafficking grant when it meets Tuesday at 6 p.m. at the Kewaunee County Administration Office in Kewaunee.
