Agenda Request
To: Board of Commissioners
Philip Morley, County Administrator
From: Monte Reinders, P.E., Public Works Directo
Agenda Date: February 24, 2020
Subject: A Resolution to Update the Official County Road Log for N. Water St.
County Road #652809
Statement of Issue:
The Board is asked to sign a resolution to update the official County Road Log for North Water
Street to correctly reflect the actual length maintained by the County. This will change the
length from 0.30 miles to 0.19 miles. The County has not performed maintenance beyond the
gate at milepost 0.19 for many years. This action does not vacate any right of way that may
exist beyond this point but simply reflects what is actually being maintained by the County.
Analysis/Strategic Goals/Pro's It 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; therefore, 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 length of N. Water Street by signing the attached Resolution.

WHEREAS, the official County Road Log lists the length of N. Water Street as 0.30 miles; and
WHEREAS, County Road maintenance historically has ended at a gate located at milepost 0.19; and
WHEREAS, N. Water Street beyond milepost 0.19 does not provide for area circulation for the

and
WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the County to maintain accurate records and to adjust the
official Road Log to avoid confusion in the future; and

County,
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the official County Road Log shall be adjusted to
show that N. Water Street ends at milepost 0.19.
