- Purchase the culvert and bring the receipt to the Department of Public Works.
- Should the individual want rock on top of the culvert, purchase the rock and bring the receipt to the Public Works building.
County Responsibility
- Determine whether the culvert is in the right-of-way.
- Determine whether or not there is adequate sight distance for safe entrance/exit.
- Size the culvert for adequate flow.
- Contact the individual to discuss installation.
- Once the receipt if received for the culvert and rock, schedule the installation.
- The Department of Public Works will pick up the culvert and rock (from a reasonable location) and install it.
