County Roads Clause Samples
The "County Roads" clause defines the responsibilities and standards related to the use, maintenance, or improvement of roads under county jurisdiction within a contract or agreement. Typically, this clause specifies which party is responsible for maintaining access roads, ensuring compliance with local regulations, or repairing any damage caused by project activities. For example, a construction contract might require the contractor to restore county roads to their original condition after heavy equipment use. The core function of this clause is to allocate responsibility for county road conditions, thereby preventing disputes and ensuring public infrastructure is protected during the course of a project.
County Roads. County maintains county roads within the UR. County will retain jurisdiction and be responsible for the continued maintenance of these road(s) until annexation by City. When City’s UGB is expanded into the UR, County will require (e.g., through a condition of approval of UGB amendment) that City assume jurisdiction over the county roads within the proposed UGB at the time of annexation into City regardless of the design standard used to construct the road(s) and regardless of when and how the road(s) became county roads. The transfer shall occur without compensation and City shall not impose other conditions that might otherwise be allowed under ORS 373.270(6). County shall ensure the pavement condition of the road(s) is in good or better condition at the time of the transfer as determined by county’s Pavement Management Grading System. When new County roads are constructed within City’s UGB or UR, County shall adhere to City's structural road section specifications. When existing County roads within City’s UGB or UR are widened, County shall adhere to City’s structural road section specifications for the widened portion of the County road. The structural section of the existing road width shall be as specified by the County Engineer. When a proposed UGB amendment will result in a significant impact to a county road(s) already within City’s limits, or existing UGB, such that the proposed amendment depends on said county road(s) for proper traffic circulation, then a nexus is found to exist between the proposed UGB expansion and said county road(s). Where such a nexus exists, the county may require, as a condition of approval, the transfer of all, or portions of, said county road(s) within the existing UGB or City’s limits at the time of annexation, regardless of the design standards to which the road is constructed. This transfer shall occur without compensation and shall not be subject to other conditions that might otherwise be allowed under ORS 373.270(6). County shall ensure the pavement condition of said road(s) is in good or better condition at the time of the transfer as determined by county’s Pavement Management Grading System. The parties deem the following roads within City’s UGB or City’s limits to have such a nexus: ▪ ▇▇▇▇▇ Butte Road, 175' West of Arrowhead Dr. to 1380' East of Arrowhead Dr. ▪ East Vilas Road, Table Rock Road to 570' east of Crater Lake Highway ▪ Foothill Road, Hillcrest Road to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Road ▪ Foothill Road, 465' South of Ce...

B. The Company is exempted from spring load restrictions only as to those designated haul routes that are gravel roads.

D. The County will not issue any exemptions to the Company to exceed restrictions on weight-posted bridges.
E. The County will provide instruction as to the appropriate street signs and traffic control signs to be used during construction of the Project. If a road is closed, access to all residences for local traffic and emergency vehicles is required. The Company may restrict a County road to a single lane during daylight hours provided a flag person is present to direct traffic.
F. The Company may install reasonable access from the County road to each tower site. The Company must take necessary steps to ensure that the access does not unreasonably restrict storm water drainage.
G. In the event County roads are so saturated with water that the Company’s or its contractors’ equipment damages the County’s roads to the point where such roads become a hazard to the traveling public, the County may request the Company to cease operations on such saturated roads until the roads are dry enough to handle Company’s and its contractors’ traffic without rendering the roads a hazard to the traveling public. If Company persists in using said roads, Company shall be liable for timely repairing any damage to the reasonable satisfaction of the County or, alternatively, for reimbursing the County for the reasonable costs of the same.
