Bond Vote

BOONE, Iowa---The Boone County Board of Supervisors will take formal action to put the matter selling bonds to replace the Wagon Bridge west of Boone to a vote of county residents. The matter was first brought up by Supervisor Tom Foster during a public hearing held by the Supervisors to consider the closure of the bridge to vehicular traffic. The matter is in the agenda for the Supervisors to consider, Tuesday afternoon. The proposal would include removal of the old bridge, construction of a new bridge and related roadway. Early estimates for a new bridge were about $4-million which did not include removing the old bridge.
