• “I am absolutely appalled at the state of Northwest Road... unending washboard and potholes! ... I simply can’t understand why Northwest Road has not been paved, chip sealed, or at least maintained with some regularity... If I was a home owner along that gravel stretch, I would refuse to pay property taxes until the situation is addressed.” — The Islands Grapevine – June 14th, 2018 (June 14th, 2018)
