Extension staff brief commission on Economic Summit; residents told how to seek vacating of county roads
Summary
Lisa Robinson and Allen Berandis from Missouri University Extension described an Economic Summit available to McDonald County political entities; residents asked about vacating public roads and commissioners explained acceptance criteria for county-maintained roads (2015 County Road Specifications) and cited RSMo 228.110 for the vacating process.
At the Oct. 6 meeting, Lisa Robinson and Allen Berandis of the Missouri University Extension office told commissioners about the Economic Summit program offered to political entities within McDonald County and encouraged participation.
Later in the meeting several residents asked the commission about procedures for public roads and the process to vacate a public road. Commissioners said the county can accept new county-maintained roads only if they meet the specifications set out in the 2015 County Road Specifications, which are available on the county website, and that vacating a county-maintained road normally follows the formal process set by RSMo 228.110.
The minutes note that county-maintained roads are listed on the county website and that the commission provided procedural guidance to residents; no formal action to vacate any road was recorded.
