Establishment of county roads is characterized as a Type E transaction. Road establishment shall be by the procedures in this chapter, which are in conformance to RCW 36.81, except where the engineer determines that establishment may be by dedication, other form of acceptance by the county, or prescription. An establishment of right-of-way only shall not create any responsibility on the county to construct or maintain any road or other public facility thereon. Establishment procedures in this chapter may be initiated in response to council request, or, when the engineer determines that the criteria for road establishment exist, may be initiated independently by the engineer on his/her own initiative or in response to a freeholders petition.
