Probably so, but if they had left it as sand, it would likely be much better than hauling in what they refer to as "river mud" to put on the road. When it gets wet it becomes a sticky gooey mess.
As for asphaulting, they sent around a survey a while back asking if people on the road would be willing to donate a 50 ft easement through their property in order to have the road paved. 50 ft.? Thanks, but no thanks. Maybe someone with a small lot on the road wouldn't mind so much, but for our property that would be a pretty good chunk of land. As it is, they really only have a 15 ft. easement and we have to nag them every once in a while to keep them from gradually widening it every time they scrape the road.
Heck, people already zoom up and down the road with it being unpaved, throwing their trash out the windows all along the road. I'd hate to see what they would do with the road being paved.
