Judge Nelson said
that a "friendly differ
ence of opinion" existed
between Boardman and
the county as to who
should have the respon
sibility of road mainten

to turn the roads over to
the city since their only
function is to provide
city access, while
Boardman wants the
county to keep responsi
bility and bring the
roads up to city stan
dards. "It's just a matter of
getting together and
working things out,"
Nelson said.
