The Washington County Board of Supervisors heard a request from Washington County Engineer Jacob Thorius in regards to the Washington County Fence Policy, “We’ve had a fence policy in place that talks about how we address fence that needs to be removed as part of a construction project or road improvement project, that was last updated in 2014. The intent of the policy is not to necessarily pay for a brand new fence, but to replace the value of the fence that’s there it usually gets close to paying 95% of the cost of the fence. But we’re trying to, with this policy, make people as close to whole as possible. Replacing a fence that was removed as part of a project that we were doing. So, we went through and reviewed this, updated it.”  The board voted unanimously to approve the updated policy.
