Commissioners review County Road 62 records after cul-de-sac placed on private land; staff to research
Summary
Officials learned the file for a prior road vacation is incomplete — certified-mail receipts and correct parcel numbers are missing — and asked staff to obtain fresh surveys and consult property owners before deciding whether to vacate a remaining 200 feet to clear GIS records.
Commissioners heard that a previous road-vacation process for County Road 62 left incomplete records and an apparent misplacement of a cul-de-sac that now overlaps private property. Staff told the board the paper file lacks certified mail receipts and that the legal-ad parcel number was wrong; "there's literally nothing" in the file, a staff member said while reviewing records.
The discussion noted that the physical road has been removed in places where gravel operations were performed, and residents face uncertainty about access and future subdivision. One commissioner summarized the on-the-ground assessment bluntly: "The road's gone." The board directed staff to contact involved landowners (including the Hixons), seek new surveys from Compass Land Surveying where necessary, and return with options — including a possible narrow, targeted vacation of the remaining 200 feet to correct county records — at a future public meeting.
