Des Moines County engineer Brian Carter told the county supervisors and department heads yesterday that residents are ready for Des Moines County 99 to open.
But we're going to have to wait.
Chaired by Jim Cary while chairman Tom Broeker is away on family business, the meeting essentially began with Carter's report on the DMC-99 bridge, the Flint Bottom bridge and county roads in general.
Carter said, "If it would quit raining two or three inches all at once, that would help our progress as much as anything on projects." He said Monday's storms didn't cause much damage besides a few downed trees.
