The Road Sub-Committee has developed some revised documents that are an attempt to more clearly spell out the duties, responsibilities, and guidelines that the sub-committee will attempt to follow. A brief summary of these documents follows:
Charter
Defines roads as primary, secondary, and other and establishes a priority for maintenance, improvements and snowplowing. These classifications are made in order to focus the expenses associated with road maintenance, improvement, and snowplowing on roads that are currently being used to access individual properties. Due to the limited budget, it is the opinion of this sub-committee that unoccupied cul-de-sacs not be maintained or snowplowed on a regular basis.
Road Maintenance Guidelines
Defines how the sub-committee will attempt to define and resolve road issues. Establishes some guidelines and priorities for snow removal under different scenarios. Suggests some areas of responsibility for property owners to consider in order to maximize safety and lessen road maintenance expenses.
Sub-Committee Member Responsibilities
Lists the road sub-committee members and defines their duties and responsibilities.
Summary of Repairs and Expenses
The current road sub-committee had a budget of about $30,000 for road maintenance and repair when it assumed responsibility in mid October. To date $26,512 has been spent or committed, leaving a balance of about $3,488 for additional roadwork this year. Additionally the sub-committee has about $6,000 in reserve for snowplowing between now and the end of this calendar year.
