How would a similar project be handled elsewhere in the unincorporated areas of the County?
According to the Warren County Commissioners, the County does not have legal authority nor responsibility to undertake such a project and spend public monies on private property. However, if the County would coordinate such a repair project, it would be its position that the property owners that benefit by the project would pay 100% of the cost of the project. The Deerfield Regional Stormwater District Board is only asking for one-half of the cost of the project to be paid by the benefiting property owners.
