Steve Williams, Franklin Engineering, explains that due to the work load of the County Engineer this case had been previously continued. Mr. Williams also stated that there wasn't enough time to address the comments prior to tonight's meeting, but that he hasn't any problem with meeting all of these requirements. There being no other comments or questions from the Board or audience, the hearing on this case is declared closed. The Chair entertained a motion to approve or deny final drainage plans for Eagle's Valley Section II subject to the Johnson County Technical Review comments being met. Robert Weaver seconded the motion.
Motion carries unanimously.
Mr. Young continues that once the Council has approved it, then it can be sent to the municipalities as a fully accepted document, ready to receive their input. Attorney Young reminds the Board that the Board of Commissioners is not a party to the Agreement. Chairman Gervasio questions the necessity of the reference made to the Board of Commissioners on page 2, the 7th line from the bottom of the page. Mr. Young explains that one of the basic concepts of the contract is mutuality, that is both sides are mutually obligated to do something. This contract has a firm obligation requirement on the part of the municipalities, but is very loose on the part of the Drainage Board.
