County Engineer Wesley Stolz meets with Washington County Commissioners on Tuesday to review the details of an interlocal agreement between Washington County and the City of Burton for road improvement services.

Washington County has approved an agreement to upgrade roads in Burton.

County Commissioners at their meeting today (Tuesday) entered into the agreement with the City of Burton. The county will supply labor and equipment up to $15,000 for projects along Texas, Burton, San Marcos, Railroad, North Brazos, North Colorado, Navasota and South Main Streets. The city will reimburse the county for all materials, labor and equipment costs over $15,000.

County Engineer Wesley Stolz said the county has done agreements such as this before to provide road improvement services.

Stolz said the work primarily involves patching up streets that have pot holes, with a few other jobs requiring the installation of road base and the application of chip seal or hot mix asphalt. He believes the work can be completed prior to the cold season coming in.
