What’s in it

Under current law, a county board of supervisors, after consultation with the county engineer, and for purposes of specifying levels of maintenance effort and access, may classify an area service system into three classifications termed area service “A”, area service “B”, and area service “C”. Area service “C” classification roads may have restricted access and a minimal level of maintenance as specified by the county board of supervisors after consultation with the county engineer. A road with an area service “C” classification retains the classification until such time as a petition for reclassification is submitted to the county board of supervisors. The petition must be signed by one or more adjoining landowners. This bill requires the petition to be signed by all adjoining landowners.
