Information

Request/Subject

Accept or reject a Citizens' Petition to begin the process to designate a portion of Pine Creek Canyon Road from Oak Road to Hummingbird as a Primitive Road in Pine, AZ.

Background Information

Gila County Public Works received a Citizens' Petition to establish a portion of Pine Creek Canyon Road from Oak Road to Hummingbird as a Primitive Road in Pine, AZ.

Evaluation

The petition and the road meet the requirements of the Public Works Department Policy No. PWS-001 Guidelines to Primitive Roads which was approved by the Board of Supervisors on October 7, 2003, and revised on December 14, 2004, May 23, 2017, and February 19, 2019.

Conclusion

Easements from property owners will need to be granted to Gila County. Once the easements are accepted by the County, providing maintenance as described in the Primitive Road Policy will consist of grading the road a few times a year. Providing maintenance on this road will not reduce the level of service to other roads in the Gila County Maintained Roadway System.

Recommendation

The Public Works Department Director recommends that the Board accept the Citizens' Petition to begin the process to establish a portion of Pine Creek Canyon Road from Oak Road to Hummingbird as a Primitive Road in Pine, AZ.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to accept or reject a Citizens' Petition to begin the process to establish a portion of Pine Creek Canyon Road from Oak Road to Hummingbird as a primitive road in Pine, AZ. (Steve Sanders)
