2005 Minnesota Statutes - 103E.526 — Construction of road instead of bridge or culvert.

     103E.526 Construction of road instead of bridge or 
  culvert. 


    If the drainage authority finds that constructing a private 
 road would be more cost-effective or practical than constructing 
 a bridge or culvert, the drainage authority may order that a 
 private road be constructed.  The private road must be 
 constructed and maintained in the same manner as a bridge or 
 culvert.  The private road must be constructed in a manner 
 suitable for farm vehicles but may not have a right-of-way wider 
 than 33 feet.  The drainage authority has jurisdiction over the 
 land required for the private road and the road is part of the 
 drainage system.
