Ms. Hatley
also stated that she needs to know what she legally has to do to obtain information on the location of utilities on the streets that are in this plan from this board because they plan on installing railing at 1-1 1/2 ’ deep and about 2-3’ high. She also needs to know what side of the street they would prefer the paths to be on.
Commissioner Carbone
clarified that what Ms. Hatley wants to do is cross the county roads. Ms. Hatley stated that the paths would be like a bike lane that runs along the road. Ms. Hatley stated that the first leg of this project would be from Simkins to Stephanie about .7 miles. The second leg would be from Barney to Simkins to Barney/Gamebird. The third leg would be Basin/Barney to Basin/HWY160 and the fourth leg would be Gamebird at Barney to Gamebird/Homestead. The fifth leg would be Homestead/Gamebird to Homestead/Turner. Commissioner Carbone stated that since this is public comment we can’t really discuss it. He would like for
Ms. Hatley
to get it on the next agenda so that we can discuss it further and she can give her presentation to the board then. Ms. Hatley gave her information to staff.

5. FOR POSSIBLE ACTION: Discussion, deliberation and possible decision regarding:
Mr. Fanning
stated that he has heard from Lorina Dellinger from Admin regarding this topic and she said that it is not necessary to have an appraisal per the NRS. Mr. Fanning stated that he is going to use the NRS to seek the Right-of Way on these properties from the owners. Commissioner Carbone asked what the NRS was. Mr. Fanning stated that he is going to look for it. Commissioner Carbone moved on to item 6.
Mr. Fanning
stated that he found the NRS that he is going to use. NRS 244.276-Purchase, sale or exchange of property with owners abutting road or flood control facility to adjust road or flood control facility; reversion of property acquired by dedication.
6. FOR POSSIBLE ACTION: Discussion, deliberation and possible decision regarding:
Mr. Tim
Carlo stated that there is a large 10 acre patented piece of property that he is trying to get the ROW for. Mr. Carlo stated that he is trying to get in touch with the property owner but has yet to make contact with him. Mr. Carlo also stated that this may go along the same lines as item 5. Mr. Carlo stated that this has been brought back and forth several times. We have acquired Libra and we also have Capricorn St. so there are avenues in which we can get into there and build but the main approach is off of Quarterhorse and straight into Mary Lou. It would be more cost effective if we could get the 30 feet from that patented piece of property.
Commissioner Carbone
stated that we have the same issue in both cases. Mr. Carlo stated yes. Commissioner Carbone stated that the NRS will take care of both items 5 and 6.
