31-11-43. Determination on maintenance contract for private roads--Cost of maintenance. At a hearing held pursuant to §§ 31-11-42 and 31-11-44, the board of county commissioners shall take public testimony on the question of whether the county should contract with the owners of private roads within the county for the county to provide maintenance on such roads. If, after the hearing, the board determines that it is in the best interests of the residents of the county for the county to maintain private roads, the board may authorize the highway superintendent to enter into contracts for the maintenance of private roads by the county. The contract may not include a per hour cost of the maintenance which is less than the county's total cost for such maintenance. No contract may be for more than six hours of maintenance per year for any one person.
