r O C T 211981 BooK 47 PnE 815 <br />Attorney Chester Clem appeared representing owner, <br />Walter Cox. <br />Administrator Nelson commented that this property has <br />been broken down into five acre tracts, and the owners who <br />desire to build cannot because there is no County maintained <br />road by their property. What Attorney Clem is requesting is <br />that the property owners be allowed to build the road up to a <br />marl standard which meets the surrounding roads, and that <br />once they do that, and it is inspected by the County, that <br />the County accept it for their normal marl road maintenance. <br />Attorney Clem explained that the property under <br />discussion is located very close to the east side of <br />Interstate I-95 and just south of S.R. 512. He confirmed <br />that the group of people owning this property do not butt up <br />to S.R. 512; in order to get a building permit, they need to <br />be on a public road and need the County to take over the <br />maintenance in order for it to be a public road. Attorney <br />Clem believed the County will have to address this situation <br />on hundreds of lots out there since there are many small lots <br />in this area with a multitude of owners, and he did not see <br />that the area could be paved unless some massive taxing <br />district were put into being. They, therefore, are just <br />requesting that they be allowed to grade the road up to the <br />standards of the surrounding area. <br />Considerable discussion ensued as to obtaining the <br />additional right-of-way we need, and Attorney Ciem stated <br />that although he was not prepared to speak to that, it seems <br />logical that something should be done. <br />It was noted we are looking to minimize the problems <br />involved in opening up large areas for maintenance, but at <br />the same time, trying to find a way to service the taxpayer. <br />Commissioner Wodtke felt if we can get the additional <br />40'of right-of-way and they will agree to bring the road up <br />to marl or shell standards in a location as approved by our <br />
