Les Pritchard expressed concerns about the level B class road to his house regarding a hole in an 18” culvert pipe and the need to improve the road due to the future construction of another house by his daughter, how narrow and the general condition of the road, and the snow and sight problem that the hill creates. He wants the level B maintenance sign taken down. The County Engineer explained that prior to the “class B” designation the road was a “legal but not open road”. Mr. Pritchard says that he was living there when the class B designation was made which he says was illegal and will sue for discrimination if the road is not fixed up.
Mr. Pritchard lives in Allamakee County and the new house would be built in Allamakee County. A road also comes into the property from Allamakee County.
