From: Monte Reinders, P.E., Public Works Director/I/ ,
Agenda Date: February 24, 2020
Subject: A Resolution to Update the Official County Road Log for
Old Owl Creek Road, County Road #136009
Statement of Issue:
The Board is asked to sign a resolution to update the Official County Road Log by removing
Old Owl Creek Road. This road was abandoned when a bridge at this location was removed in
1966. Old Owl Creek Road is not maintained or open. This action does not vacate any right of
way which may exist but simply updates the Road Log to reflect what is open and maintained
by the county.
Analysis/Strategic Goals/Pro's Et Con's:
Making corrections to keep the Official County Road Log current helps to avoid maintenance
confusion.
Fiscal Impact/Cost Benefit Analysis:
The motor vehicle fuel tax distribution formula is based in part on the miles of roads listed in
the Official County Road Log, it is important to keep the Road Log accurate and up to date.
Recommendation:
Department of Public Works recommends that the Board approve updating the Official County
Road Log by signing the attached Resolution to remove Old Owl Creek Rd.
