Damage to the monitoring system at two low-water crossings, one caused by a hit-and-run and another by a police chase, will be repaired, the Hays County Commissioners Court said Nov. 26, authorizing $2,360 toward the effort.
The standpipe rain gauge at Chaparral Road was damaged in a hit and run, as was the standpipe and conduit, according to agenda background information. Damage to flasher #2 at Bunton Lane was due to a police chase and included the flasher base, LED light and housing, solar panel mount, battery and antenna pipe.
The work on both will be done by Water & Earth Technologies. Regarding the flasher at Bunton Lane, the county is currently seeking damages from the party at fault.
