First off, I don't speak for the Board here, but only as an interested individual . . .

Joe Reynolds is suggesting that we need to hold the County accountable for it's admitted responsibility, perhaps more aggressively than we have in the past . . .

The County has consistently dragged its feet relative to this issue, forcing the OPA to pick up the slack, apparently at OPA expense . . .

Joe Schanno is suggesting we quit depending upon the County and just do it ourselves . . .

All valid and reasonable suggestions . . .

Knowing what I know of the Pines, and the extent to which we interact with the County on a wide variety of issues, I would suggest that the wisest course of action would be to continue to press the County to meet its responsibility, but in an amicable, cooperative, and patient fashion . . . this is not an important enough issue, in my opinion, to get as aggressive as Joe R. appears to be suggesting . . . nor is it such a lost cause that we need to take it one ourselves completely, as Joe S. is suggesting . . .

My understanding is that the contractor working with the County will be back on our roads by early June . . . let's keep a close eye and see how it goes . . .
