| SB-2026-0110 | 04/09/2026 | Millers Flat Progress Association | Raise the causeway | new | yes | Raise the causeway. It is the cheapest option that keeps the school bus running and it can be built in a year. A bridge would take five years and we cannot wait that long. | ||||
| SB-2026-0111 | 06/09/2026 | L. Farquhar | Build a new bridge upstream | new | yes | A new bridge upstream is the only option that is safe in a big flood. Raising the causeway just moves the problem. Think about the next fifty years, not the next budget. | ||||
| SB-2026-0112 | 07/09/2026 | T. Iversen | Keep the causeway and improve warnings | new | no | Keep it and put money into the warning system so people stop driving into water. The causeway has worked for sixty years. | ||||
| SB-2026-0113 | 09/09/2026 | Harbour Timber Pty Ltd | Raise the causeway | new | yes | Raise the causeway. Our trucks lose two days every closure and the road is unsafe for the drivers. We would support a local materials clause. | ||||
| SB-2026-0114 | 11/09/2026 | A. Nyman-Quist | Raise the causeway | new | yes | Raise the causeway but keep the fish passage. The environment matters as much as the road. |
