ADOPT-A-ROAD LITTER CONTROL PROGRAM AGREEMENTS

 

By unanimous motion, the Board approved the following Adopt-A-Road Litter Control Program Agreements: 

 

§        Marguerite Hauberg, South Whidbey Bicycle Club, for   Bob Galbreath and Wilkenson Road beginning at State Highway 525 and Bob Galbreath to the road closed sign and the  bike/pedestrian area on Wilkenson Road.

 

§        Disabled American Veterans Whidbey Island Chapter #47, renewal of agreement, for  Crescent Harbor Road from Taylor/Crescent Harbor intersection to one mile west and back.

 

Commissioner Shelton advised that he  received his first complaint about the Adopt-A-Road Litter Control Program.  The caller was upset  most  because of the sign placement close to her house, and that she had been picking up litter on the road for some number of years and took great offense the County spent money putting up signs indicating that road now designated for someone else.  The caller also complained that those folks picking up the litter were from a  Bed & Breakfast establishment and she felt the sign amounted to  County-sponsored advertising.  Commissioner Shelton’s opinion was that the amount of money the County spent on signs compared with the litter control that various constituents were doing for the county through this program was an excellent trade-off.    He did think perhaps the County might be able to move the sign one direction or another in this particular case.
