MOHAWK LANE

Jim Hunter, Carol Atherton, James Atherton, and O.A. Hunter joined the meeting.

paid by the property owners. The estimates have not changed from the $16,700 from the
March 16th meeting. At that meeting Carol thought the estimated survey costs were $600-
$800, which would leave $1,750 in the cost share per Carol’s understanding.

The property owners agreed to come up with the cost share money within 60 days.

Commissioner Strafuss moved to accept the Mohawk Lane per the survey as described on
the map into the maintenance system contingent upon receipt of the cost share money
from the property owners within 90 days with signed easements and release of surveys to
the County. Commissioner Strahan seconded the motion. The motion passed by vote,
Strahan (aye) and Strafuss (aye) and Pennel (absent).

Temporary Presiding Commissioner Strafuss declared a recess.
