Re: Tax Map 99 , Parcel 38A
Dear Mrs. Rohm:
When I visited your property and inspected the private road
that serves your home and the other residents it was apparent that
the road does not meet either the County nor the State design
requirements. Usually in situations such as this I recommend to-
the Planning Commission that these roads be made public whenever
additional subdividing is proposed. In this case public roads
are probably impossible because of the existing winery and the
railroad right-of-way.
If you proceed with your application to subdivide your prop-
erty we will recommend that the road from State Route 712 to your
property be improved to meet the enclosed private road standards.
This would mean that the portion of the road from 712 to the first
railroad crossing would fall in the 6 to 10 lot category and would
have to be paved. The remaining portion could be a gravel surface
(3 to 5 lots) however it will probably need some drainage ditches
and/or pipes. Your engineer would have to prepare plans to show
this work.
Please remember that this is our interpretation of the
County ordinance and our recommendation as engineers. Final
decisions in these matters are made by the Planning Commission.
Please feel free to call if I can furnish any futher
information.
Respectfully,
Maynard L. Elrod
County Engineer
