Roads Set for Repair on Fischer Store Road This Week
Paving on Fischer Store Road will start Tuesday August 4 weather permitting. Drivers should limit travel and seek alternate routes as delays are expected. Commissioner Craig Payne said paving will take about one day. County plans bid process for Jacob’s Well Road reconstruction from Blanco Road to Cypress Creek Bridge. Labor-only bids will be sought with materials under county contract. Construction could begin in September and wrap by early October if weather cooperates. The project will cover about one mile and be a full reconstruction not a simple patch. Commissioner Pug Rippy asked to confirm court approval for bids. If labor bids exceed $10,000 court approval may be needed. Cypress Creek Bridge upgrade was not planned due to a prior $10,000 cap. Also approved hiring another employee at $15,600 annually.
