The wife and I purchased some land last year (farm land). We've been planting trees, mowing etc. using access from the farm, but want to begin installing our own driveway. I obtained a permit from the town for the culvert and they also gave me the application for a driveway permit. The driveway will be quite long, around 600-700 feet. There's a statement in the driveway permit that I don't understand so thought I would ask your opinon on what it means:
Driveways over 150 feet in length shall provide for a segment of road at least 50 feet in length and 20 feet in width of road surface for each 300 feet of driveway length.
What would be "road surface"? Does it just mean if I have a 600 ft driveway I would need 100' of 20' wide driveway? Can this just be of same "base" as rest of the driveway. Just thought I would ask some opinions before making some phone calls.
Thanks!
