The Road Maintenance Committee Structure
The Road Maintenance Committee (RMC) is a KY Commonwealth agency, created to collect road maintenance taxes in order to assist the Crystal Lake Club (CLC) maintain its roads. The tax item is listed as "RM" on your county tax bill.
The RMC is organizationally independent of the CLC Board of Directors and is ruled by KY Open Meeting, Organizational, Financial and Purchasing rules. Refer, for example, to KRS 179.700-179.000.

The Club's roadways, culverts, and traffic signs are within the scope of the RMC. It also contracts for snow removal. County roads, Grange Dr., and Crystal Dr., are maintained by the county and are not within the scope of the RMC and homes on County roads are not taxed by this district.
Brush clearing and other issues not related to a specific road project are addressed by the CLC Board.
Maintenance Plan
Great strides have been made on the roads over the past decades by the Road Mainenance Committee. We're finally at a point where the major repairs have been done and we can start over.
It can cost "almost" as much to patch a small section of road as it cost to repair an entire road. Because road life is about 15 years, the Road Maintenance Committee tries to do larger projects and use patch material to extend older road 's life until the entire road can be addressed.

Roads are annually reviewed and ranked using the same mentods used in Oldham County. The repair schedule is set by the road committee during it's open meetings, by reviewing the annual ranking, available funds, proximity between repairs (to reduce the equipment moving changes) and other critical factors that allow us to get the most from our limited funds. The grading method can be found at the Business and Documents tab. Your comments and suggestions are solicited.
