LOCAL The Manhattan Mercury A2 Monday, May 3, 1993 Riley County Wants long-term paving program Vandals still not found after inquisition the county is to adhere to any sort of management plan, he said, it will first have to get to the point where it can think about implementing a plan. The succession of freezing and thawing over many years has led to large potholes in many roads in the county, many of them north of Manhattan. Commissioners are Jin the process of applying for a grant to pay for one of the worst of them, Fancy Creek Road, near Randolph. Riley County" by public works director Dan Harden, a 19-year county employee. The county's informal policy of road repair calls for maintenance of 10 percent of the county's 120 miles of roads per year.

This would, in effect, cover all county roads in a decade. But Harden said today he can't remember the last time the county stuck with that plan. Tight budget years have forced the county neglect several of its roads. If during the inquisition is not required. Once subpoenaed, people must testify under oath.

"The inquisition didn't result in enough'evidehce to charge anyone with a crime," said Jeff Elder, Pot-tawatomie County attorney, "tlriless significant information comes to light we just don't have enough evidence to charge anyone. About eight months ago, vandals snuck into the cemetery, toppled 60 gravestones dating to the 19th century, and partially dug up a child's grave. Damage to the stones, some more than five feet tall and weighing more than 400 pounds, was estimated at about $2,000. In what has become a slow process to repair the damage, county officials have restored some of the gravestone bases and will soon try to reset some of the stones. Although Pottawatomie County Sheriffs Department officials can't prove who did the damage, they think it was probably a teenage Halloween prank.

Elder said the testimony was transcribed and will be reviewed by officials still investigating the case. "It's very frustrating," Elder said. "If anyone knows anything they should contact the sheriffs department." 1 from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Tuesday at the Edwards-Yorgensen-Meloan Funeral Home in Manhattan.
