14. .Nevaca County Nugget. .May 18, 1966 The Knotty Problem Of Roads (Continued from Page 1) All of this creates not only road building and maintenance problems, but also adds to the already difficult sanitation problem. ~ One only has to stand on any of the narrow rocky roads above the lake and see another house and septic tank going mn to realize this problem, What comes Out of a septic tank always goes down, never up and in that area down means it eventually goes into the lake. “T hese people are trying to help themselves, “ Public Works Director Jack Meade told the group as they stood around looking at a washed out portion of a new subdivision road. “They are making the necessary improvements of road and drainage through assessment district proceedings. “ ; But it was evident all around the lake that the property owners, and in the long run, the taxpayers all around the county, could have been saved a lot of grief, time and money, if the county had proper planning regulations, road standards and inspection staff available when all of this started. If this had been available, the multiplicity of assessment districts in the eastern end of the county which cost the property owners money and the county staff a lot of valuable time that could be spent elsewhere, wouldnot have been necessary. Under the existing situation, the people have no ozher choice. While the county now has many of the things which would have helped these people if they had been available such as a subdivision ordinance, road specifications, a county engineer and road inspections, one of the things which was a major cause of the situation around the lake today still exists, This is the problem of private roads, The county planners and the county board of supervisors are still allowing new subdivisions to goin with private roads. These are proposed under a variety of arrangements but the most common is the private corporation. or improvement association which is charged with maintaining the roads, This system works, Pla-Vada Woodlands Estates off old Highway 40 has had such an association for several years and it has kept up the roads to the standards desired by the residents. But Saturday, as the bus passed this subdivision, County Planning Director Bill Roberts said his office isnow receiving inquiries from property owners about procedures to bring the roads into the county system. “Not from the Association,“ Roberts said, “but from the property owners. ” The private road association works so long as there is someone who is around andis responsible for making sure the roads are graded, oiled and patched, Once that moving force is gone, the association collapses andall the people who said they wanted privacy and private roads are suddenly down at the courthouse looking for a way for the county to bail them out. Things are being done in the eastern end of the county. A multi-million dellar sewage system is proposed for the Donner Lake and Truckee area. Roads are being improved through the for mation of assessment districts. Peoplé are working now to correct a mess that could have been prevented by proper regulation and enforcement. Roads too narrow or houses so Close to the right of way to make it impossible to bring them up to county standards, lack of enough water for proper fire protection in a dangerous forest ‘environment, makeshift bridges that may or may not carry the load of fire equipment, and lack of room to plow and store snow are all familiar scenes around the lake, But there are good subdivisions going in too. Wide, well paved roads, hydrants, gutters and berms to cut down on erosion can also be found. The people who will move into these subdivisions are lucky. For those who bought years ago, they will have to come up with some more money to correct someone else's mistakes, LEGAL NOTICE LEGAL NOTICE LEGAL NOTICE LEGAL NOTICE NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the following polling places and precinct officers have been legally designated by the Board of Supervisors of the County of Nevada for the Primary Election to be held on Tuesday, June 7, 1966 within the Third Supervisorial District: PRECINCT OFFICERS PRIMARY ELECTION THIRD SUPERVISORIAL DISTRICT PRECINCT: POLLING PLACE: INSPECTOR: ASSISTANT INSPECTQ:: JUDGE JUDGE CLERK CLERK CLERK CLERK PRECINCT: POLLING PLACE: INSPECTOR: ASSISTANT INSPECTQR: JUDGE JUDGE CLERK CLERK CLERK CLERK PRECINCT: POLLING PLACE: INSPECTOR; ASSISTANT INSPECT: JUDGE JUDGE CLERK CLERK CLERK CLERK PRECINCT: POLLING PLACE: INSPECTOR: JUDGE CLERK CLERK PRECINCT: POLLING PLACE: INSPECT OR: ASSISTANT INSPECTQR; JUDGE JUDGE CLERK CLERK CLERK CLERK PRECINCT: POLLING PLACE: INSPECTOR; : ASSISTANT INSPECT: JUDGE JUDGE CLERK CLERK CLERK CLERK PRECINCT: POLLING PLACE; INSPECTOR; ASSISTANT INSPECTQR: JUDGE JUDGE Alta Hill A Alta Oaks Sunset Fire House Gertrude Evans, Rep Janice Fontana, Rep Neny H.
