2005 Connecticut Code - Sec. 13a-97. Agreement for town maintenance of state highways.
Sec. 13a-97. Agreement for town maintenance of state highways. The commissioner and the selectmen of any town, or any other officer thereof having charge of the
highways therein, may enter into an agreement, in writing, whereby a designated section
of a state highway, other than a limited access highway, shall be maintained in whole
or in part by such town, provided the parties may agree on an amount per mile which
the town shall be reimbursed by the commissioner for such maintenance. The agreement
shall describe the sections to be so maintained, the type of maintenance and the basis
for reimbursement agreed upon, and a copy thereof shall be recorded in the office of
the town clerk of the town in which the road lies within twenty days after the date of
execution of such agreement. Such agreement shall operate to transfer liability for failure
to discharge any statutory duty of the commissioner.
History: 1963 acts added provision re transfer of liability for failure to discharge statutory duty of commissioner via agreement and provisions re partial maintenance and reimbursement on a per mile rather than cost basis and restated provisions: See title history.
