To the Murphy Road - Superintendent Dow would like the road go another year before putting a final coat of black top on, since it come through the winter well. Tracy Road - From the end of the Dandy Road to the Becker Road, works needs to be done. Superintendent Dow informed the board that there should not be much work required, as it has a good contour on it. Woods Road - may have to have some work done on it, as the road has received damage from the usage of heavy trucks. There has been damage done to the road from the railroad tracks to CR 28. Also, the road has had drainage problems. Superintendent Dow has worked with Knollwood Farms to direct the draining from the barn in the opposite way. Tuck Road - It has been 10 years since the road has been worked on. There would need to have a new base put in. Superintendent Dow commented that people would say that if you are going to reconstruct the road, why not take the hill out for safety reasons. Richardson Road - The whole road needs to be reconstructed. Tile drain needs to be put in for better drainage. Bull Run Road - From the Nelson Road to the Keystone Road, it needs to be reconstructed. Superintendent Dow stated that the County would be arriving in Lisbon to black top in three weeks. Other Discussion: • Red Mills Cemetery - Jack Gray has placed 6 connibear traps at the cemetery, as wood chucks have done a lot of damage in the cemetery. • Beach - The electrical is not according to the blue print. The crew has to find where the line is running so it is not torn up. • Beach - Sewer lines are correct as to the blue print. • By opening season, eight new sites will be completed.

Superintendent Dow feels that the septic is pumped into the old site. • Beach - Trailer Roof - Contractors have been asked to turn in a quote on how much it would cost to replace the room on the beach trailer. Superintendent Dow has only received two estimates with the third expected. A contractor did recommend that we not re-shingle the roof over the shingles. It was recommended that we strip the old shingles, lay a vapor barrier on, and put on shingles with a thirty year warranty on which the board agreed. • In the hamlet of Lisbon - Supervisor Watters asked Councilman Winters if he could contact Wade Davis, at the Bridge and Port Authority, to have the brush cut down along the railroad tracks from CR 10 toward Ogdensburg.
