Hedman is concerned with the denial of his petition to vacate a county street. The Board previously denied the appeal becaUSe signatures were not from persons within the area. Hedman, stated that some of thep~~erty owners do not live on the lots mentioned and can only be contacted through registered letter. . Hedman asked why he needed, 10 signatures,. it is his opinion that since the property owners were not from Jefferson.County, they would not see the necessity for an access. road.. Chairman Brown mentioned that every contiguouf property, owner would .have t;he'right to be notified and 'g~ven, an opportunity to be heard.. The board wants to know what new configuration the lots and access roads wouid take and aSked Engineer Becker to personally inspect the property with Hedinan. . , . Hedman's argument .is that he constructed a road with'permissiun from the County. He paid the County $~,500.00 for the timber he removed from the .right-a-way, and he l1,ow'wants the money back for his portion (half) of the. right-a-way. Hedman further stated if the County will refund his $2,500.00 he .will grave.!" the portions of the road he feels ne.c.essa;ry (,approx. 250 feet.)' and will treat all additional roads that he constructs the same. Hedman presented personal bills totaling $5,200.00 in construction costs for ~his road, says timber was in a 'downhill market and he did not make as. much as'he paid the County. Value of the. timber, road and lots was $13,000.00. Engineer Becker ,told Hedman he. had to have a p~rmit issued by the County' before any work can be started on a County road. Hedman said he was not aware of,this, and that no where could he .find it stataffias ,so. NeIt:lier, ara lie know that. the timber was not owned.by the county in the right-a-way. Hedman further stated he would like to Compromise. Commiss.~oner Mercer: stated compromises can be made if. they are appropriate. The Board does not feel there ~s appropriate reason in this case. Chairman Brown pointed out that the situation was not as unfair as Hedman lets it on to be, and that the County is willing to work. along with him. . Theref.ore due to. the road being under litergation. the County has delayed graveling of the road until the matter is settled.. . In conClusion, Engineer Becker will meet with Hedman this afternoon. . Moti.on by Commissioner Mercer, seconded by Chairman Brown to Approve the Minu~es of Febuary' 23, 1976. ..
