i am not sure where people are getting the idea that you can just "give, deed, whatever" a road to the county. my neighborhood has always had paved roads and the developer tried it. the county did take 2 roads but did not want any of the smaller less traveled roads. even though this developer had alot of connections. these roads have slowly gone bad when the county put speed bumps on their 2 roads, everyone detours through the smaller roads and our maintance fees dont seem to be enough to keep them in repair. they also tried to give them the land that was designated for a community park and the county would not take that either... the county realizes the costs of maintance is so high that they do seem to decline all the "gifts".
