These residents should be in a meeting with our Maintenance staff to go over history and information on gravel roads provided by the Maintenance Foreman. Council member Siedow was in favor of a 9-ton road and ordering preparation of plans and could at a later date revisit assessments policy. The Maintenance Foreman made a list of the negatives and positives in having gravel roads.
