The second parcel, owned by Charles Spira ,is half an acre in size. The county will need .02 of an acre for the project. The temporary construction easement will be .04 of an acre in size.
With an unanimous vote, the commissioners instructed the county road engineer to acquire all the necessary right of way for the drainage improvement project located southwest of Mossyrock.
