Skip stated he felt an individual should not have to bring access road to the subdivision up to standards – too costly – this would set precedence.
Dennis stated there could be a forced subdivision plat north of Silver Lakes II subdivision. Discussion followed.
Randy stated that Charlie Holliman paid money to survey and dedicate easements – Charlie can retain easement in his ownership – if forced subdivision process begins – Mr. Holliman would be the only one consulted regarding the roads.
Dennis – the title can be fixed to have Holliman as owner – drawing of roads as they exist now to Holliman – Grangeville Highway District may have option to take title fee in future
Charlie wants to discuss the option with his lawyer whether to keep roads private and have Holliman as owner.
Forced subdivision plat discussed
Jerry Frei, Grangeville Highway District, stated the roads should be left private and leave highway district out of it.
Joe Wright stated – several individuals have private ownership of ROW/easements – still a concern – forced plat may not give perfect title to road – discussion followed.
Charlie stated that the property owners who are present in commissioners room, today, are opposed to forming a property association to maintain the Fish Hatchery Road – two years ago he spent approximately $4,000 of his money to maintain the road – Charlie stated this road has been over burdened for years.
Skip withdrew his motion from above, as Charlie requested more time to visit with his lawyer and think about what he wants to do with the roads.
Decision tabled until April 14, 2008.
