Lazy C Road and Drainage Problems: Lyle Tinker reported to the Boar t at two cul de sacs in ivision 3 and Rocky Brook Road are in very poor condition and are so narrow that they present a danger when used by logging trucks. The Board informed Mr. Tinker that the County does not own any additional right-of-way on this road and, therefore, cannot widen the road. They will, however, see about having the road graded. Mr. Tinker asked the Board to write a letter stating that the County would require additional right-of-way in order to widen the road so that community members can approach the resident who owns the land needed for right-of-way. Mr. Tinker went on to report on flooding problems on lots in Division 1. The culvert going under the County road causes water to run onto the lots instead of into the creek, because of the way it is angled. The Board stated that, if they are given permission to work on the private property adjacent to the road, they can probably have backhoe work done to correct the problem.
