OLD BUSINESS

*Discussed quotes from Road and Driveway and Gettis, Inc.

-The Gettis proposed use of a road fabric over the cracked areas of the pavement (alligatoring), and then a layer of pavement. They would allow us to pay for it over three months.

 -Road and Driveway proposed to remove the existing pavement and repave the road. They do not offer a time payment option.

-See further details of estimates in July 15, 2025 minutes.

-Observe road fabric repair. Rick went to the Siletz Key Development, who hired Gettis to repave using the road fabric. The project was completed over 8 years ago, and appeared to be holding up well.

-The board has decided to hire Gettis to do the first phase of the needed roadwork, to repair 100 feet of cracked pavement on Powe.

 

*Culvert at Silver Sands entrance determination.

-We still have not located the entrance at the North end. We will proceed with repairs when we can determine the extent of the damage to the culvert.

-See further details of culvert issue in July 15, 2025 minutes.

- Rick has located a site with a similar issue over the culvert in Yachats. We will contact the owner of the property to obtain information about their site.

-We will also obtain an unofficial assessment from a civil engineer who does this type of work.

APPROVAL OF PREVIOUS MONTH MINUTES
*June minutes read and approved.

 

FINANCIAL BALANCES
* First Security Bank Checking : $ 70.11

* LGIF: $8,403.15

*Cash: $134.05

* Total Funds: $8,607.31

 

OLD BUSINESS

*Culvert Determination. We have not located the entrance at the North end. Jonathan dug more but hasn’t found it. It appears that water is flowing into the area, but we do not know if it is coming through the culvert.

*Quotes from Road and Driveway and Gettis, Inc. The board revisited the recent estimate for all repairs from Gettis for $16,000. We are inclined to accept the Gettis bid because they will accept payments over time. We still have questions about how they would repair the culvert. Rick will follow up. We are considering starting the repairs for those on Powe and delaying the culvert and Sarkisian. 

*Raise Road assessment Rate? Jonathon obtained information from the Tax Assessor on this subject. It must be done via a bond issue and put on the local ballot. Resident, registered voters who are property owners in Silver Sands are eligible to vote on the bond issue. The board decided to table this idea until we can determine if there is interest among the Silver Sand community in passing a bond.

 

NEW BUSINESS

*Budget presented to county. Rick submitted the budget and has the receipts from the county.

*Sec of State in lieu of audit report. We will submit the required $40 to the Sec of State, rather than undergo a state audit. Rick will fill out online paperwork. We are eligible for this option because we are a very small road district.
