Culvert Update

Culvert Update:

At the 2023 Pine Cedar Lakes Association annual meeting, a review was done of the status of the culvert on the south end of Pine Lake. It was determined there had been a culvert present, but it was broken and clogged. The next step was for the township board to submit an application to the Morrison County Soil and Water Conservation District requesting replacement of the culvert. If it was approved, then a new culvert would be inserted based on DNR and soil/water specifications.

This application was submitted. It was subsequently rejected for being incomplete. To move forward, would require a set of engineering plans. "This plan would consist of but is not limited to the size, location, and elevation of the replacement culvert. The plan would need to be developed by the Elmdale Township and a licensed engineer to address the culvert placement details."

A discussion with an Elmdale Township board member suggested they do not have the funds to advance this, as it would likely be greater than $10,000 plus the culvert and placement cost. Therefore, the Pine Cedar Lakes Association Board tabled this item for now.
