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 - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
