Received a certified letter from the county engineer last week. The county wants to vacate a dead end dirt road. The road dead ends at a decent size creek where traffic on the bridge had been banned probably 60 years ago. Bridge is totally gone now. This dirt road splits my farm. About 1/3 of my land is on the west side and 2/3 is on the east side of this road. There is one landowner behind me that would have to use this road to get to his land. Currently the land is in pasture and CRP. He may have brought this up with the county engineer as he had earlier asked me about closing the road. He is basically going to use this land for hunting and doesn't want anyone back there treaspassing. Honestly I wouldn't want anyone back there either.
What happens when a county vacates a road? Do I get the land back and have to give him an easement to get to his land? I know they could make it a class C or farmer road and he could put gates up at the end. I do not use the road myself, but if I got the land back I could eliminate at least one fence on either side of the current road and in theory both fences. I assume I would have to give him a workable path back to his land. Does any money change hands? I did attempt to talk with the county engineer today but he was out of the office and will call back. We have a public meeting set for September 26th at the court house. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks.

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
