He <br />believed the easements are owned by the county, but stated that <br />he has never seen one cleaned in the five years he has been <br />there.

He concurred with Attorney <br />Clem that the original intent was to assess $5.00 or $10.00 per <br />parcel/acre for a drainage study, and that is what he would like <br />10 <br />
