requesting the department of transportation to consult with the counties and consider, among other things, County community development plans when designing projects under the federal highway safety improvement program.

 

 

     WHEREAS, the counties of the State conduct corridor planning for county roads that intersect with state highways; and

     WHEREAS, the counties have independent planning processes, and the construction of private roads, driveways, and interconnections with county roads must meet county approval; and
