Gerald Brewer appeared to discuss South Tabor Road. He reported that in the 1950’s
they dedicated a 66’ right of way for a county road. In 1984 the transfer station was
closed. In the 1990’s he asked the county to abandon the road if they were not going to
maintain it. The City of North Platte requested at that time the road not be abandoned
as there were sewer lines and storm drains in that area that they needed access to and
that the City of North Platte would maintain the road. The city did maintain it for several
years and now it is just a trail. He is again requesting maintenance of the road.
Jerry Hitchcock, County Highway Superintendent, commented that he had went out and
looked at the road. He measured from the concrete to the gate and it is approximately
670 feet. To his knowledge the county has never maintained it. He will do some
research.
