Managing Director Jake Welch spoke to the Board about a request from the City of Hastings. The City of Hastings is considering a project that would place a raised crosswalk at the hospital on Green Street and a mini roundabout at Market Street & Green Street intersection. The City of Hastings was wondering about possibly putting a mini roundabout at Cook Road and Green Street intersection. The Board and Jake Welch discussed this request. There were minimal accidents at this intersection in the last 8 years. The Board had concerns about re-routing large amount of traffic on a mini roundabout when M-37/M-43 detoured traffic or the large amount of traffic when the two factories on Green Street dismissed or before and after school started. There are studies that show concerns about differing speed limits on legs of the incoming roads. Due to these concerns, the Board requested that the City complete a thorough traffic study and consider multiple options prior to giving a final decision.
Equipment Superintendent Scott Schantz spoke to the Board about grader lift system on motor graders. We have four motor graders with the lift systems for a roller attachment and would like to have a spare motor grader with this lift system. This lift system is brand specific to the piece of equipment and therefor taking bids would not work.
Motion was made by Commissioner Fiala and seconded to purchase from AIS Construction an installed lift system for $19,618.28.

Larry Heslinga, representing the Healthy Waters Alliance, spoke of their concerns to the Board about the new gravel mining operation driveway permit on Miller Road. They are concerned of the noise, dust, toxic diesel fumes, property value loss, and traffic and pedestrian safety issues. According to Stoneco there is an estimated 150-175 gravel trains per day that could be exiting the gravel mining operation onto Miller Road. The Healthy Water Alliance would like the driveway to be on Hayward Road so that this will have an impact on fewer residents.
______________________________________________________________________________
The Board discussed the pending Driveway Permit Application from Stoneco of Michigan for Hayward Road West of Miller Road. At this time, the road would need grade adjustments to gain the required sight distance to put a driveway at the location requested.
Managing Director Jake Welch explained to the Board that both Township Supervisors to the West expressed concerns regarding traffic being directed to their townships and past their residents (Jim Stoneburner, Prairieville Twp Supervisor, was in attendance and shared his concern) as well as public concerns from the Healthy Water Alliance show public concern with any option. According to the MDOT’s National Function Classification System Hayward Road is a “Local” Road and that Miller Road is a “Minor Collector” Road. Mr. Welch also explained if the Hayward Road driveway was to be approved that the traffic from there going north and south bound would be largely on the County road network and possibly either head North toward Yankee Springs or South into the Village of Prairieville. In comparison, Miller Road would lead northbound traffic to “Major Collectors” Guernsey Lake Road or Otis Lake Road and southbound traffic to a “Minor Arterial”, M-43 Hwy. M-43 is under the jurisdiction of MDOT who receives approximately 10 times the amount of road funding as compared to the Barry County Road Commission. These roads have additional funding options that are not available on the county “Local” roads.
Mr. Welch also referred to an independent traffic study completed, by Fishbeck, on Miller Road. Fishbeck stated, “Based on the results of this traffic impact study, no operational or safety issues where identified. The existing road network has the available capacity to process the additional vehicles associated with the proposed Stoneco site in Barry County.”
Motion was made by Commissioner James and seconded to deny the Hayward Road Driveway Permit due to the limited sight distance, the National Function Classification of area roads and associated funding mechanisms, and the results of the traffic study completed by Fishbeck.

Driveway Permit #1871 on Norris Road in Orangeville Township was discussed. The driveway permit was issued in 2003 and no driveway has been installed at this location at this time. It was determined by the Engineering Department that the permit had an error in measurement so it was amended. Instead of 3,085’ North of Mullen Road the new driveway permit is issued for 3,125’ to 3,155’ North of Mullen Road. The following was attached to the driveway permit:
Property located West of Norris Road and North of Mullen Road, has raised questions from residents on whether parcel #11-010-004-00 has access to the public right of way on Norris Road. Dylan Kennedy did an initial site review on January 10, 2024 and determined that a driveway permit could be attained but it appears to need an easement.
The resident called and spoke to Dylan on January 19, 2024 saying that the current owner provided a permit, driveway permit #1871 which was approved on 07-09-2003 by Mike Norton. With the existing permit in hand, an additional site inspection was completed January 22, 2024 by Dylan, it was found that the location approved on the original permit does not meet sight distance requirements. It was determined that approximately 50 feet north of the approved permit location does meet for sight distance. Based on the site review, the BCRC has determined that a mechanical error must have occurred upon initial measurement.
Permit #1871 issued on 07-09-2003 has been amended to reflect the intended location that meets sight distance requirements. The original voided permit is attached.
There is an existing two track, further north, that appears to access the parcel, but upon preliminary inspection, that drive does not meet for sight distance either.
Note that a driveway permit does not give an applicant property access rights, therefore, if an easement does not exist at the approved location, a new easement would be required or a new permit application would need to be submitted to the BCRC for review.

Robert Lothschutz with Scott Civil Engineering spoke to the Board about bridge inspections and reporting to Transportation Asset Management Council (TAMC). Mr. Lothschutz has been inspecting BCRC’s bridges since 2015 and has since added multi-barrel culverts to the inspections. BCRC currently has four bridges on the TAMC severe ratings list. Barger Road is one of them and it is scheduled to be replaced in 2026 using Critical Bridge Funds. BCRC has four bridges and thirteen culverts on the TAMC poor ratings list. The Board and Mr. Lothschutz discussed what makes bridges rate on the TAMC poor or severe list and what can be done to prevent it or how to upgrade them to a higher rating.
