Hearing. Petition for vacation of County Road #l8-3.50.34
(Lone Star Road); Fred Edwards et al, petitioners. Continued from May
7, 1979. David Johnson, Attorney for Phil Boling appeared with Mr. Boling
to speak against the vacation. He discussed with the Board the width of
the road as how the judge ruled it. Bill Howard, Prosecuting Attorney,
interpreted the Findings & Conclusions document, giving the County Com-
missioners authority to make the road the proper width.
The Attorney for the petitioners, Thomas Majhan, explained to the
Board that he feels the basic issue is just who is going to spend the
money for Mr. Boling's development, the County or the developer. If the
road is vacated Mr. Boling will have to build a road across the ravine
at his own expense but if the road is not vacated the County will in time
have to put a proper road in at the expense of the County. Mr. Johnson
disagreed, he said the issue is whether or not the Commissioners can
vacate an already existing County road that is not useless.
Mr. Johnson discussed with Mr. Howard and the Board the definition
of "free holder" as required by the petition. Mr. Howard said, he would
find this information and return with it that afternoon.
Phil Boling informed the Board that he had Mr. Seton estimate the cost
of putting in a road through the ravine, $60,000.00 plus was estimated.
The Board decided to continue the hearing that afternoon after the
Prosecuting Attorney returned with more information.
4:00 a.m., Monday, May l4, 1979. Chairman O'Meara reopened the hearing.
Mr. Howard reported on the question raised by Mr. Johnson regarding the
definition of "free holder" by saying that a deed holder does qualify
as a "free holder".

Bill Howard reported to the Board that Mr. John Keegan,

hearing without knowing what all of Northern Tier's proposals are. Mr.
