The Board of County Commissioners, Polk County, is considering accepting a drainage easement for a section of an existing drainage ditch. This easement is related to a drainage system called Blackwater Creek and involves the Byrd parcel. This item is currently pending review. The project involves securing the necessary rights for a portion of the drainage ditch, which may lead to future work on the Blackwater Creek drainage system. This early stage presents an opportunity for contractors and suppliers in site preparation, grading, and utility work to engage with the county or project stakeholders. Reaching out now, before detailed plans and permits are finalized, allows businesses to understand potential future needs and position themselves for upcoming opportunities.
