    It used to be called that, then someone took the sign down and pretended like it never happened. I think Google still remembered it properly.

    As has been pointed out, if you need an ambulance or fire fighters or law enforcement help, you don’t want them wondering where to go.

    David for protecting the elderly too

    To Everet I would want the road I live on to have street sign. I am sure that these people are paying taxes. If something happens police needs to know how to get there.

    What is the county paying (tax money) for a sign for a private road?
