an RFP committee was formed to determine what kind of software might be
utilized to replace this loss of support.

successful demonstration of the program. Ms. Garibay added that references

Teresa Rozic explained that the source of the document comes from ODOT’s
recognition of the right of access of adjacent properties to a public highway.
The access is historic, and was previously the ditch rider’s road. Now that there
is a hydro facility being installed, they need more secure access. In order for
ODOT to consider the application to approach, this process needs to be
followed.
