(1)When it is necessary to build or repair any bridge across any stream on the line
between two
(2)counties, or to construct or repair any road between two
counties, or along the boundary line thereof, the fiscal courts of the counties may
enter into such agreement therefor as they find best, but if they disagree, the fiscal
court of each county shall appoint two
(2)special commissioners who, together with
the county road engineer of each county and a representative of the Department of
Highways, shall meet and arrange the matter.
(2)The fiscal court of each county interested shall notify the Department of Highways
of the action taken and request its assistance in the matter and the decision reached
by the committee thus appointed, acting jointly with the representative of the
Department of Highways, shall be binding.
(3)If the fiscal court of any county, upon being requested to do so, fails to appoint
commissioners, or if either court fails in any respect to fulfill its part of the
agreement with respect to work, the remedy by mandamus shall lie before the
Circuit Court of the county whose fiscal court is complained of on behalf of the
fiscal court of the other county, and the Circuit Court shall compel the fiscal court
complained of to do what ought to be done in the matter.
