YUEN:Generally speaking a private road would not subdivide the property and <br />create another lot there. And the way this road is shown in the tax maps leads me to think that it <br />is some kind of a government road, along with the fact that it has been used by the general public <br />for a very, very long time. Well, Ill leave it at that. <br />SPRINGER:Thank you. Commissioner Siracusa? <br />SIRACUSA:Well, several things. I do know of a situation where a private road went <br />up a, the middle of a spaghetti lot and, because it was owned by the same people at one time and <br />then they just subdivided, the road continued to be -. But, at any rate, one of the indications we <br />might look at is whos maintaining that road. Because if the County, if somebody is paving it or <br />grading it periodically, then theyve taken responsibility already. Does anyone here happen to <br />know? <br />N.ERICKSON:Thatwasgoingtobemypointexactly.Aboutthreeorfouryearsagothe <br />County did repave that road, and replaced the stop sign and put in a new sign called Leopolino <br />Road. And we have a copy of the metes and bounds of this property and it indicates a property <br />boundary along that, that 40-foot access road. Id be happy to share that with you. <br />SPRINGER:Thank you, Mr. Erickson. Norman, should we have copies made of that or <br />can it be circulated at this time? <br />HAYASHI:Yes. <br />ALAMEDA:Madam Chair? <br />SPRINGER:Commissioner Alameda. <br />ALAMEDA:You know, as a non-attorney, I think the reason that we have counsel is for <br />that sole purpose, to counsel. And, so for me, I feel totally comfortable with our counsels <br />recommendation and insight. Thats all. <br />SPRINGER:Thank you. Commissioner Salavea, do you have any comments at this <br />time? So far its one-one. <br />SALAVEA:I guess Id like to know what the ramifications, or the options would be, <br />yeah, ramifications if it was a County road and these improvements were asked, whats the <br />difference between it being public or, I mean, private and County? Im not sure if Director Yuen <br />or Mr. Torigoe would be able to address that. <br />SPRINGER:Mr. Torigoe? <br />TORIGOE:Youre asking what would be the -? I guess, the primary problem would <br />be whos going to maintain it and if somebody gets hurt on the road whos liable for it. And so, <br />obviously, if its a County road and the County is maintaining it and somebody slides off the side <br />of the road because of the condition of the pavement or lack of proper drainage facilities, then <br />County would end up being sued. <br />20EXHIBIT C <br /> <br />
