Minot
Highway Dept. Report, 2009
To the Residents of the Town of Minot
,
We
have had an extremely busy year with the washouts
that occurred last August. The total damages
we sustained were in excess of $120,000.00 with
all the repairs being completed by October. We
did an extensive amount of ditching, stone lining,
and culvert replacing (and up sizing) on Millet
Road, Bradbury Hill Road, Brighton Hill Road,
Shaw Hill Road, and Death Valley Road. A portion
of this work was done with the assistance of
the Mitigation Funds that we received from the
Federal and State government to prevent additional
damages.
We
still continue to have a strong working relationship
with the Hebron Highway Dept. and the Mechanic
Falls Highway Dept... Both of these Departments
were of great help to us during the washouts
in August. I hope for this to expand as we deal
with the ongoing issues with the economy. A few
other towns have also expressed interest in working
with our dept...
My
Highway budget, as proposed, again has some increases.
Most of this is connected to rising costs in
oil and is reflected in the price for diesel,
propane (heat at the garage), and electricity.
We have to plug in heaters on a sand truck, the
grader, and 2 buses because there
is no available space in the garage. We have
increased repair costs as the equipment is getting
older and most of it is no longer under warranty.
I
have been very fortunate to have a staff of very
dedicated people that have helped to build a
Highway Dept. that is the envy of many. A lot
of the credit has to go to you, the taxpayers
of Minot , for without your support through the
years, this couldn't have happened.
This
October will mark the 10 th year that I have
been here at the Town of Minot and I want to
thank all of you for your support over the past
years. Some changes have taken place recently
and I have been select as the new Town Administrator
to replace Rhonda Irish . Scott Parker has assumed
the day to day operations at the Highway Dept.
and will gladly answer your questions.
Arlan Saunders, Town Administrator
