AN ACT to amend MasOn's Minne-
coe<s SS1totCo VI lOStS cCCtIOu sUlU,
relating to the construction of tun-
nels under public highways.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of
the State of Minnesota:
Section 1. That Mason's Minnesota
Statutes of 1927, Section 261O. be
amended so as to read as follows:
"261O. Every owner of land on both
sides of a public road may tunnel
under such road to permit stock to
pass from one side to the other, but
he shall, at his own expense, con-
struct such tunnel so as not to en-
danger the public in the use of such
road. Before constructing such tun-
mel. the land owner shall obtain
from the town board of the town in
which it is located, if the road is a
town road, or from the county board
of the county in which it is located.
if the road is q county or state aid
or county aid road, or from the COM
mission of highways, if the road is
a trunk highway, an approval of the
place, the kind of tunnel, and the
manner of it's construction. Bridges
over tunnels shall be not less than
sixteen feet wide, properly protected
with ratings, and constructed of such
materials as shall be agreed upon
by the respective board or commits
sioner of highways, as the case may
be. and if, within one year after
the construction of such bridge, the
board or commissioner of highways,
as the case may be. shall deem it
or its appurtenances insecure, it may
cause the same to be put in the prop
err condition at the expense of its
owner, and, whenever said board or
commissioner of highways shall deem
the tunnel out of repair, it may
cause the necessary repairs to be
made at the expense of such owner.
In either case the reasonable cost of
such repairs shall be certified to the
county auditor and by him assessed
upon the land in the same manner as
the road taxes. Provided, that when
any such public road is not on a Sec
ton or sectional subdivision line. the
owner of the lands on both sides of
such road shall be permitted to con-
struct an appropriate tunnel to be
approved as aforesaid, which tunnel
the owner shall maintain at his own
expense for the first year and which
shall be thereafter maintained by
the town, county, or state, as the
case may be. Provided further that
whenever the board of county COM
missioners of any county, as to any
county state aid or county aid road
therein, or the town board of any
town, as to any town road therein.
shall determine that the construc-
ton of such tunnel is necessary for
the safety and welfare of the public.
such board may cause such tunnel
to be constructed and maintained at
the expense of the county or town.
as the case may be, or may contract
with the abutting land owners for
the equitable division of the cost of
construction and maintenance there
of between such land owners and the
county or town.
