Bright Feather Road neighbor dispute
Summary
A road-naming fight exposed a process gap: affected owners say they were never notified when the road was named in 2025. The board kept the name anyway — three of four owners support it, and public safety and mail delivery favor a named road — but the surveyor is now proactively notifying owners in future namings.
