The Commission moved their meeting to Mt. Carmel Junction where they met with the Garfield County Commission to discuss the unique problem ofthe Hole in the Rock road. The road is owned by Kane County but is accessed through Garfield County. For many years Garfield and Kane had a maintenance agreement, but approximately six years ago relations fell apart and the agreement was canceled. Maintenance has been spotty at best since then, and the road is a problem for economic concerns in Garfield and liability concerns in Kane. The two commissions rapidly had a meeting of the minds and a new agreement is beingdrawn up that will help to alleviate the problems. Comment was made that its too bad government doesnt always work together like this. Meeting adjourned. Medical-Immunizatio- Forgery.
