Summary
Twelve households on a private gravel road platted in 1968 are asking the town to take over their deteriorating road, which has deep potholes, drainage problems, and unsafe conditions for emergency vehicles, school buses, and elderly residents. Council outlined a 50-50 special assessment path requiring 60% resident signatures and rough costs of $600–$1,000 per year per household over ten years, and set up a follow-up meeting with a neighborhood spokesperson.

The twelve Plainview Road households — including veterans, seniors, and families whose school bus currently can't use the road.
Fixed-income seniors on the road could be strained by the added assessment cost if the 50-50 split proceeds.
