I found this part sickening:
O'Hara estimated that the cost of grading the route would be about $70,000 and hopes the county can find a funding source.
...
One source of funding might come from another county resolution introduced by County Council Chairwoman Valerie Poindexter that would allow the county to appropriate a $10 million grant from the state that was transferred to the county pursuant to the state's first emergency proclamation in May.
I won't ask how County can leverage an "emergency" to build substandard private roads... I'm sure they have good reasons... but:
What did County do with the $10M?
