Rustic Hills road is private beyond early subdivision; Pleasantview plans 'baby box' and road speed changes reported

Oct 10, 2025

County attorney said Rustic Hills is maintained by the county only for the first portion shown on a 1977 subdivision plat and remains private beyond that; Pleasantview Fire Department announced plans for a baby box and Road & Bridge reported lowering speed limits on several county roads.

The full story

County counsel reviewed a 1977 subdivision plat and told commissioners Rustic Hills appears on that older plat only for the initial four lots; beyond that, counsel said the road was never offered to the county and remains private. "It is a private road beyond the 1, 2, 3, 4 first 4 lots," counsel said, noting that for the county to accept farther sections as county road the owners would have to offer it and the road would have to be built to county standards.
