Great Job Luke! County Engineers always improving their infrastructure and serving the citizens of Ohio.
Let’s talk about the Hardin County Engineer Lucas J. Underwood!
What does the County Engineer’s Office do? From maintaining roads, bridges and ditches to overseeing the Tax Map Department and assisting our townships, villages, schools and county offices, the Engineer’s Office plays an important role in keeping Hardin County moving.
This role doesn’t come without its challenges! With limited resources and a budget driven primarily by gasoline taxes and license plate fees, the office works to balance community needs with what can realistically be accomplished each year.
If you drive on roads in the county there are some things you can do to help the Engineers Office run smoothly! Report road hazards and drainage concerns, participate in public planning meetings, and contact the Engineer’s Office before beginning a new or renovated residential or other project to make sure permits, taxes and other requirements are in order.
Working together helps keep Hardin County safe, connected and moving forward! Thank you Mr. Underwood for all you do!
