Cabin Site #2 owners seek cost estimate as commission directs engineering research
Summary
Residents and property owners discussed potential Cabin Site #2 roadway improvements; the commission asked Moore Engineer Tom Weigel to research road ownership and costs and was advised by the states attorney that county participation is legal but requires roads to meet state specifications.
Cabin Site #2 roadway improvements were discussed with cabin site owners and local rural residents at the Sept. 3 Mercer County Commission meeting.
The board requested Moore Engineer Tom Weigel to research ownership of the roads in the area and to estimate costs for county participation in a possible special assessment district project. The minutes record that cabin site residents need a specific cost estimate before the commission could take a vote on participation. States Attorney Todd Schwarz advised that county participation is legally permissible but that, if the county participates, all roads would have to be brought up to state specifications. The county was identified as responsible for obtaining the preliminary engineering report for the possible special assessment district project.
No vote was taken at the meeting; the item remains at the information-gathering stage pending engineering work and a resident cost estimate.
