Nicholas County Fiscal Court discontinues 558-foot end section of Horse Mill Road

Nicholas County Fiscal Court voted to discontinue a 558-foot segment at the northwest end of Horse Mill Road after a viewers' inspection and written notices found no expected inconvenience to the public.

Speaker 2 presented the viewers' report under KRS 178.070, saying viewers including Pat Dunn and two other disinterested parties examined the portion and provided written notice that discontinuance would pose "no inconvenience" to others. Speaker 2 identified the segment as about 558 feet long and located at the northwest end of Horse Mill Road within Nicholas County.

Speaker 1 confirmed that adjacent property owners had been consulted and reported they were "fine and on board." Speaker 1 moved to discontinue the road segment; Speaker 3 seconded the motion and the court approved it by voice vote.

The action discontinues county maintenance of that small end segment; the court recorded that the roadway still provides turnaround access and that no adjacent property owners objected at the time of the viewers' inspection.
