The board of supervisors passed
an ordinance Tuesday governing
real estate subdivisions through-

type and quality of the roads and

Under the new ordinance, sub-
divisions must submit maps show-

must either have the roads in con-
dition to meet the required specifi-
cations or post bond to assure
compliance.
The ordinance also sets the min-
