Residents press Washington County to pave Cardinal Lane, say trash pickup is damaging it
Loading...
Summary
Two Cardinal Lane residents asked the board April 7 to pursue state road status and paving for Cardinal Lane and said county trash pickup is tearing up the road.
Residents from Cardinal Lane told the Washington County Board of Commissioners on April 7 that the unpaved road needs state funding and paving and that trash pickup operations are damaging the surface.
"I am still here talking about Cardinal Lane and trying to get help to make it a State Road and have it paved," said Jimmy Jones (51 Cardinal Lane), who asked for another meeting and complained that trash pickup crews are "tearing up the road." Jack Shutz, another Cardinal Lane resident, repeated the request for paving.
Commissioner Ann C. Keyes acknowledged the comments and recalled her past role as emergency management/planning and safety director in response to Mr. Shutz. The board did not take immediate action on the request at the April 7 meeting; public comments were received and noted for follow-up.
The board later discussed multiple capital projects and staff noted bids opening for water main and elevator projects; no specific road funding or state request for Cardinal Lane was recorded in the meeting minutes.
