That is a state other than we have the authority to patrol state roads — as law enforcement. But as far as the fiscal court doing much of anything…that state road, the Commonwealth of Kentucky controls that road. Something horrible thing happened on a state road last week. A poor poor woman had a tree fall…driving on the state road, Beach Grove Road. Uh, and that's a it's a state road. years ago when I was the county attorney
Road and couple we'll talk about today or rural secondary roads. And they they link our bigger system with Eur's local system…concurrence of the court is to make sure that our uh big road system and Eur's local road system are we're making the right maintaining…here. Uh and you know we typically would ask we'll present the roads and then we'll ask for concurrence in the form of either
okay mr logsdon uh i would like to say i just thank the road department for everything and robert's not here today but uh i know they…good job of really trying to prep the roads and take care of the roads there's a few roads that uh in my area in district…want to point out king's church road is a state road and i know i've talked to you specifically about that the first snow i just
roads are what we call farm tomarket roads and they they they essentially link local access and local roads to our bigger networks. Okay…that we get the court's uh local government's concurrence on what roads to resurface because of that that important link between local government…state road network. And one other thing is that our bigger state roads like the interstates and Kentucky 44, they're on a kind of a different paving
with it because we have a lot of private roads that are long and lengthy and the people paying a lot of taxes…there so I think we have an obligation to take care of those roads too whether it's just rock or whatever but I don't mean…black top every Road in the county but the whole idea of it is we have to maintain them saf for the First Responders and yeah there
roads or public roads and they find out uh when it's no time or gravel time or Road time that that's not a County Road just…because there's a road name on the sign doesn't mean the county road and I know we've talked about this important fast but there…Road in particular I know there's eight or thin houses on it they all pay taxes and several of those people had moved there thinking that that
those instances where the road was built designed. I don't I can't really speak intelligently to I don't know that I've ever been…Kingsaw Road. I'll be honest. So I can't speak intelligently to that road. But I just know that road you're referring to, it was black…that you bring up a good point though. If if it's a road that's if they're not asking for us to come in there
that's separated into four Road systems the state primary roads which is part our bigger roads uh interstates and Parkways State secondary system which is Big surface…roads like Kentucky 44 and maybe US 31 uh and then we have our rural secondary Road system which is like our Farm to Market roads which…subject of this meeting and our fourth group of Roads is called our supp roads which these are these little uh disconnected weird roads that
road and it's just going to eventually it's going to where that proper LS dewood is the only entry to this particular site feable and that…County's obligation and accordingly I was instructed him to basically video this road before he starts construction or get your road forment out there…walk this road make sure there's no issues so when it start get yeah there going to be heavy trucks through there that's just the nature
anxiety very often. — Y'all take a look at Brooks Hill Road. It's in very bad shape. get one wheel off and you can flip in different…design smell. — You're talking about shouldering issues. — The whole road needs There's dump trucks that travel that road constantly and over the years it's just…trucks are actually turning over. — Yeah. 100 dump trucks a day on that road. Very dangerous road. — You take a look
traffic moving because once you cross over 44, that's a four lane road and you're only going to be on 61, maybe three miles…chance to really digest it, but that's all the roads. — Yeah, you if you pay attention strictly to the last two pages, it'll actually give…weight limits and what roads what roads they — those state, county, city roads, make sure
road that's, uh, in an end of the county that's, uh, end of the county was neglected for years. Uh, you got some roads down there…even get an ambulance down them. Not a big one in our county road. So, I don't see the difference, especially when you see the wealth…that road and the tax revenue that they generate. So, all I'll say to that is the roads that we have taken in have all been
pictures there are from Weird Road and Bear Camp Road. The road department worked on about 20 roads where they were fixing either damaged roadways uh shoulders…there. They also had to do some rail and cribbing on a couple roads like Nichols Hill and Pendleton Hill Road. U work was delayed for those roads…state. Um we also had to get an inspection on those roads by FEMA. That inspection was done on August the 1st and the contractor was here within
three four years ago we went through the county and we removed any road signs that distinguished uh that that assumed that it was a county road…private road we went in put a new road sign up that indicated that it was a private road a lot of people has there…news to some uh that it wasn't a county road when those new road signs were put up uh I've talked to Robert and Glenda
Fisher Lane and we found where those two roads were taken into the system absolutely in a minute yeah yeah yeah those roads were taken into the county…around the same time developed around the same time and these two other roads were taken in it's my understanding about 10 years ago so they watched…snowpow trucks you know go down the road next to their it looks identical to theirs and we've never done any snow removal
roads on Fisher uh the drainage is perfectly acceptable the width of the road is perfectly acceptable uh talking to Robert uh however there are issues with potholes…different things like that so the condition of the road currently doesn't Merit or fall within our guidelines to accept that road as a County Road currently…come in provide uh equipment and labor if the residents of that particular Road were willing to pay for the materials uh that was primarily focused on gravel
during this storm. I know where there's some been some private roads and there have been some emergency situations arise. I would I don't know…would uh probably challenge the community. Uh if you live on a private road, and I've brought this up before, and there's several people in here…home and not realize if that's a private road, city road, county road. I think there needs to be a checklist on that contract that when
such a thing as a private road. What happens is somebody bought 20 acres and they just sold the land and people built houses here and there…there's a private road in there and it was never, you know, introduced into the county road system the proper way. So, a lot of people move…have no idea that they just think that they pay taxes and that road should be maintained by the county. But, I'm trying to a little side
visit is is is to uh uh present rural secondary paving recommendations, what roads we think are, uh good to pave. And uh you know, just…general statement, uh you know, KYTC uh maintains a a significant road system in in each county. And in Bulock County, uh, you know, we maintain…that those kind of things. Um, and, um, you know, our rural secondary road system is We have three tiers of roads. State primary roads like interstates
grading of public roads it's in your uh Commonwealth of Kentucky County Fiscal Court resolution 23-01 providing for grading of public roads whereas Bullitt County Fiscal…Court is required and shall and shall accept roadways into the county road system for Perpetual maintenance if the roadway meets standards set forth by county and whereas…Philippines report fines and determines the roads that are not now maintained in the county road because of those do not meet the minimum standards to be accepted
understand the responsibilities. But there's a lot of private roads, you know, in this in this area. I understand they pay taxes, too. But I would challenge…more proactive than reactive. If you know you live on a private road, I think a lot of these people don't even know who their neighbors…anymore. Private road, you might have 10 houses on that road. People just don't talk like they used to. I would like to find some
roads those roads were put in way back and I think somewhere along the line it was one of the porter developments I may be wrong there…think we all just have to work it out in here take those roads over Property Owners all want them to and so those are private roads…categories private right now yeah but yeah yeah they're all subdivision roads and we got every road around it ex Hill view comes up in there takes
wanting to add Raleigh Riley Ridge to the official Bullet County road listing. You can come up and chat about it for a minute if you want…know it's a private road off of Ridge Road. So, — yeah, the are splitting their property, so we're going to go ahead and name that…private road name. That way, if there's any building in the future, everything will be That clears up a lot of issues down the line. There
news, — get that dirt back on that road. — Are are you all seeing in that area most of the accidents happening going towards Mount Washington — towards Shepherd…paintball on the paintball side of the road — and they turn away from the road — to flatten it out. So, so the high majority of the accidents that…mobile speed limit things there. — Yeah. Yeah. We we bought one for county roads. I don't I don't know. Yeah, we've got two of them
where the trucks try to stop. They're tearing up the road. It's It's hard to get the road prepared quickly enough. So, I'd like…this court to do a resolution like we have done with two other roads and we've been successful with lowering the speed limit on state roads…there all the way up to the first red light of Beach Grove Road, the new entrance, Beach road that the city built years ago to keep
