§ 975. Proceedings upon failure to make required repairs
At the expiration of the time limited for the repairs, without further complaint,
and upon notice to the town as they deem reasonable, the commissioners shall determine
if their order has been complied with by the town. If they find the town has failed
to do the work ordered by them, and no appeal has been taken, they shall promptly
appoint an agent to spend upon the highway the amount fixed in their report. They
shall cause the agent to give a sufficient bond conditioned for the faithful performance
of his or her duties and shall file in the county clerk’s office a certificate, stating
that their order had not been complied with, and that judgment should be entered against
the town for the amount named in their report, and give the name of the person appointed
to spend this amount. (Added 1985, No. 269 (Adj. Sess.), § 1.)
