Roadwork October 2016

Hi members, here is an update from our Road Committee:

This week we completed the fall road grading, with the work focusing on the main access road, Mountain View Drive.
We were unable to purchase any acceptable road base, the ACA material is not working, and we tried an experiment using 2 loads of crushed, recycled concrete between the cattle guards.
The roads are constructed and maintained for 20 mph traffic and will continue to experience accelerated wash-boarding if our traffic exceeds the posted 20 mph speed limit. So when you are driving please look at the speed you are driving so we can all drive on a smoother road surface.
