County Engineer Ralph Brescia advised that staff would like <br />some time to review and be able to present more accurate figures <br />as to just what the paving costs will be because the $6/sy set <br />out in the memo is just for the asphalt; it doesn't include the <br />compaction and stabilization required or drainage. Mr. Brescia <br />confirmed that Mr. Price of Global Paving has indicated that he <br />will grade the road as needed. <br />Chairman Scurlock suggested that we put someone in contact <br />with Global Paving and set up a schedule for the grading, and <br />also show Mr. Youngblood the process to follow to get up a paving <br />petition. <br />Mr. Youngblood emphasized the need to have someone to follow <br />up on the promised grading because they have been told in the <br />past that these things will be done, and they have not come <br />about. He informed the Board that about two months ago, Mr. - <br />Price brought a large dredge machine in there to take some base <br />out from the bottom of his pit and turned it over in the middle <br />of the highway and part of that machine is still sitting on the <br />road today. Mr. Youngblood claimed that the mining trucks have <br />also destroyed county property; i.e., knocked down a street sign <br />and also knocked down part of a county bridge at Olso Road. <br />They have talked to Mr. Price before, but nothing seems to be <br />done until they move ahead and instigate something. The property <br />owners would like to take care of this hazardous road situation, <br />which would be to the benefit of everyone involved, and they want <br />to settle this amicably. <br />Commissioner Bird asked if within the mining permit we have <br />the ability to require Global to grade that road once a week, and <br />Commissioner Wheeler felt once a week would not be sufficient as <br />that is undoubtedly the worst road in the county. <br />Director Keating believed Mr. Youngblood cited a section of <br />the Mining Ordinance that requires the mining operator to <br />maintain a county -owned unpaved road that is part of his hauling <br />route, but <br />that is the new ordinance, <br />and Global's current <br />mine <br />'JUL <br />4^01MBoa's <br />�� <br />F;cE158 <br />
