Residents, staff discuss options for Cabernford Road repair; county exploring grant and partnership approaches
Summary
During public comment residents asked about possible repairs to a private road (Cabernford Road). County staff said the road is private, discussed possible funding options including a community development planning grant, and said further study and cost estimates are pending.
A resident asked the board for an update on Cabernford Road, which is a private road in rough condition. County staff said the county has been discussing several options, including using planning grant funds the county received (a Community Development Block Grant planning award) to study funding options, pursuing regional partners, and asking residents to share some responsibility if needed.
Staff said they have met about the road and are awaiting a cost estimate from a regional contact. Staff recommended delaying any construction work until spring due to weather and said they will return with options once cost estimates and funding pathways are clearer. A county official told the resident that the county may be able to assist but that private-road status limits direct county action without resident participation or specific grant funding.
No formal board action or appropriation was taken; staff said they will continue to evaluate grant and partnership options and will provide updates to the resident.
