Meeting
of
Janaury 21, 1980
10:00 a.m. Meeting called to order by Chairman A. l1. O'Meara with all
members present.
The Commissioners of Jefferson County Fire District #1 appeared
to discuss the problem of streets not being signed in the Hadlock and Iron-
dale areas. The Fire District is beginning a numbering program but, Mr.
westergaard explained, finding the streets is a problem when time is the ut-
most importance. The Board advised that the County has the signs and posts
but lacks the man power at the present time. The County will start the
signing program as soon as possible.
Mr. & Mrs. Michael P. Shag, property owners in Lazy C Divison
No.2 (unrecorded plat), appeared to inquire about the status of the flood
fund assistance. The road has been washed out from the recent flood but the
County cannot provide funds because it is an unrecorded plat with private roads.
Mr. Shag feels the property owners of Division No. 2 would be willing to fin-
ance the road if the Commissioners ask the Army Corps of Engineers to turn
the river in Division #1 in order to eliminate future flooding causing more
road damages. The Board will contact the Army Corps of Engineers for infor-
mation on instigating "205" assistance.
