Commissioners Hear Road Complaints
Roads-their maintainence and
names- were the prime topics of
disussion at Monday's meeting of the
Madison County Board of Commis
sioners.
Robert Roullard of Spring Creek
asked the commissioners for help in
getting the state Department of
Transportation to repair the road he
lives on. Roullard and other
homeowners along Wooleyshot Rd.
asked for help.
Speaking for the other residents,
Roullard told the commissioners that
Wooleyshot Rd. is designated as State
Road 1171 on state highway maps.
Roullard said that DOT officials have
told him that the road is not a state
maintained road and was placed on
the map by mistake.
The commissioners gave Roullard
a petition to be signed by the other
homeowners along the road The peti
tion will be forwarded to DOT of
ficials in Raleigh.
The ongoing saga of Grandview Rd.
continued Monday night when Mrs.
Jane Hendrix again asked the com
missioners to rename her road near
the Buncombe County line. The com
missioners had earlier designated the
road 'North Grandview' after Mrs.
Hendrix requested a change.
The road, which crosses into
Madison County before returning to
Buncombe County, had been incor
rectly named the Huey Extension Rd.
before being renamed by the commis
sioners.
Further complicating the situation
is the road's state designation. One
section of the road in question is State
Road 1568, and a second section of the
same road is designated as SR 1592.
Renaming the road "Grandview"
as Mrs. Hendrix requested will re
quire a public hearing. The commis
sioners listened to Mrs. Hendrix for
more than a half hour Monday night,
but took no action on her request.
In other business, Sam Parker
came before the board to ask for a
resolution accepting a grant to the
county to provide sewer service to the
Madison Manor Nursing Home. The
commissioners accepted the Brant
and signed signature cards needed to
appropriate funds for the project.
When completed, the s^wer line from
the nursing home will conect with
sewer lines being installed by the
town of Mars Hill.
The commissioners went into ex
ecutive session twice during
Monday's meeting. They met behind
closed doors with Ed Morton of the
county Health Dept. to discuss what '
was termed a personnel matter and
later met with board attorney Larry <
Leake to discuss a legal matter. In .
both cases, no action was taken
following a return to open session.
