Private Road Maintenance
I live on a private road, with 5 other families. I have recently found out there is a road maintenance agreement on file with the county that I was never asked to sign. Recently someone that was visiting me tore something out from under a horse trailer while visiting me, and has asked that I pay for the damages b/c of the road...I agreed to do and correct the ditch line....while my husband and I were working on the road..--name removed--were confronted in a negative fashion by a neighbor stating--name removed--could not work on the road unless--name removed--received written permission from all the neighbors..is this true? --name removed--put down milling, ground up ashpalt, on the road in that particular area b/c--name removed--get if for free from my husbands employer. Are--name removed--responsible for the road maintenance? Who is responsible for the reparis on this horse trailer? Can I enforce no children on ATVs to ride the road without safety equipment and if they do am I somehow liable if this child gets hurt?
