Fruitland Bridge Rejected After Length Shortfall

County Commissioners Arrington and Townsend rejected the Fruitland bridge for being 38 feet shorter than the 232 foot specification after a site inspection. They offered no repair plan, leaving the project to the Thurston Bridge Company and Fruitland residents to settle or choose a new bridge. The Sao Juan river bridge near Farmington impressed the officials as the best in San Juan county, built by Farmington men for 8400 dollars. The Animes river bridge remains downed with no funds to rebuild, forcing residents to ford the river.
