subdivisions are required to have paved roads
Developer was required to pave roads before County would approve final subdivision plat.
County let Developer evade this responsibility. Too late now.
other roads do not have to be paved to pass code
Code only applies if the road is being accepted by County -- in many cases, not possible, code requires 40-foot pavement on 60-foot easement, which width is not available.
Contracting out work is only as effective as the specs and enforcement of the contract
Same rules apply to County; see above, these roads were supposed to be paved, but this requirement was ineffective due to lack of enforcement.
