Thanks for you help Maddog, but it ain't that easy.  It will take money that County does not have.  They take care of Coosa 14 and some others because they are connectors and the stat strips show more usage.  And the County gets state and sometimes federal money for some roads and not others.  Have been to County Commission meetings with other residents.  We primarily complain about Coosa 2.  It was a dirt road for so many years and then, according to the County, became a paved road WITHOUT the necessary underpinings.  Fixing would require a total restart, and the County has the road on its own from Harmony Church/Hicks Marine on.  Up to that point the state helps. 

That being said there are now some business/development interests down road that have some funds and great benefit from a road fix.  To find funds to obtain some matching govt money (yes we do need govt for some things) is only hope.

Paul is a good man.  Wanted to fix the roads.  Now when Coosa 2 is really bad Paul's wife calls everyone who uses the roads and gives them a number to call to put pressure so we can at least get the Spitter Machine to patch a few spots.

Wish it was better
