Staff report
news@masoncounty. com
A 62-year-old Lake Forest Park
man was slated to be charged with
reckless driving after a semitractor-
trailer tipped over near Grapeview.
According to the Washington State
Patrol, Segii Sagaidak was driving
the semitruck pulling a fully loaded
trailer at about 2:45 p.111. Monday on
Dawn Road near state Route 3, when
he overcorrected during a turn.
The load inside the trailer shifted,
causing it to fall onto its side. The 2003
Volvo semitruck slid for about 150 feet
before stopping in the southbound
lane.
The road was partially closed from
more than an hour, and fully closed
for more than two hours, according to
WSP.
The man was wearing his seatbelt.
He was not injured.
CITY BRIEFS
CouncH-i
approves.
$52K to move
water line
During an abbrevi-'
ated meeting Tuesday,
the Shelton City Council
approved spending about
$52,000to relocate a
water line near Coffee

6-inch cast iron water .
line just beyond Hulbert
Road on Shelton Matlock

near where the Washing-
ton State Department of
Transportation is work-
ing to remove a fish bar-
rier near US. Highway
101.
Funds for the project
will come from the city’s
public works depart-
ment, according to city
documents.
City council member
Joe Schmit, who works
for the state Depart-
ment of Transportation,
said in the future, he’d
like to see better com—
munication between the
designer or builder and
the city.
“In the future when
we catch wind of projects
in our area or where we
service, it’s a good idea
to work with the local
departments or different
areas so we’re not caught
at the last minute,” he
said.
No other council mem-
bers commented on the
project.

nect a realigned Coffee
