We are wondering what the RC road maintenance policy really is? We can't help but notice that most of the county roads have not been touched recently despite blizzards and snowstorms. Gravel or tar, the roads are getting very tough with little or no snow removal.....except that done by local farmers who were forced to move snow in order to get out. We have not seen a snowplow on our county road for well over a week now, almost 2.
No notices have been published nor signs put up stating policy changes that we are aware of. We would think the current upheaval in that department should not affect the roads and the responsibilities RC has committed to the county residents.
In fact, the roads have only been cleared a few times this winter season so far; so the argument of "lack of funds" shouldn't apply.
It is getting rather embarrassing when people from other areas mention the poor shape our RC roads are in.
The city of Sisseton has done an excellent job with snow removal this winter so far and is to be commended for keeping up with what winter has dealt us.
Perhaps they could give the RC Road Dept some advice?

Because the Supertendent did'nt give a darn(he was leaving)and the new one hasnt had a chance yet to get them all done. Hang in there he will get it done.
Did you all notice there were county trucks out plowing roads on the weekend???? Now thats new and mighty nice. Thank you new supertendent!!!!!! John H.
KELO TV last night showed snow plowing by state and counties. All were working full force except Roberts Co. and that was because the opt-out didn't pass and the CC had to cut the budget.Retalation? You bet!Only one plow out working. Wonder whose road will get plowed first.New jail is up and working (About half full) and the saga continues.
