For those who think County roads get treated so well --
My County road is driven daily by tourists and tour buses as well as resident tourists and four miles worth of residents. Hasn't had any road surface work done in the seven years I've lived on it, and wasn't in great shape when I got here. It finally got a restriping after seven years and the stripe was totally gone.
It has no shoulder, no room for bikes or pedestrians to use it, none of those things people complain the private roads lack.
The turn out onto the highway is dangerous and there will never be a light there.
I don't spend my time complaining about it. Am only mentioning it because there is so much griping about how people on County roads supposedly get great services. They really don't.

I think the complaint isn't that county roads get "great" services, it is that the "private" roads get NONE. The wealthier neighborhoods in Kona, Kohala, and Hilo all seem to have very nice roads though.
