§ 5591.07.

In the event it is necessary in the construction, use, or maintenance of a joint bridge

to establish, alter, narrow, change the grade, or vacate a part or all of any public

highway, the board of county commissioners of a county may, by resolution, declare

such necessity and its intention to make such highway modifications or alterations,

and provide in the resolution the manner in which the alterations or changes are to

be made, the approximate cost so far as the county is concerned, the land or other

property it is necessary to appropriate, how the cost of such alterations or changes

is to be apportioned between the county and railroad or union depot company, and by

whom the work of construction is to be done. Prior to the passage of the resolution declaring such necessity there shall be filed

with the board exhibits showing the location, elevation, and width of any highway

to be established, altered, narrowed, vacated in whole or part, or grade thereof as

changed, and a general plan of the joint bridge showing that portion to be used for

general highway traffic, the supports, and any approaches to the bridge, together

with such other information as may be required under the contract.
