Resident told McDonald County cannot maintain roadway near Frisco Road; commissioners note erosion on Dead End Lane
Summary
Resident RJ Lambert asked to gate a roadway section near Frisco Road in Anderson but was told the section lies outside county jurisdiction; commissioners later inspected Dead End Lane and observed active water erosion that they said will require corrective action planning.
Resident RJ Lambert told the McDonald County Commission he wanted to block a roadway segment just past the cemetery near Frisco Road in Anderson with a gate to prevent traffic near his driveway. The minutes state the resident was informed that the section in question lies outside the county's jurisdiction and maintenance responsibilities.
The minutes do not name the county official who informed Lambert; the response is recorded in passive form as 'the resident was informed accordingly.' Because the minutes do not attribute the response to a specific speaker, the report does not assign a named county speaker to that statement.
Separately, the commissioners conducted a site visit to Dead End Lane to observe water erosion affecting the roadway. Commissioners Bryan Hall, Jamey Cope and Rick Lett noted that water is actively cutting into the road surface and said further discussion will take place to determine appropriate corrective actions to prevent additional damage.
The minutes record the observation and a pledge to continue discussing corrective options; they do not record specific repair plans, cost estimates, funding sources or a timetable for repairs. The commission reconvened on April 30, 2025, per the minutes.
