Homeowners' calls about unplowed roads snowballed into a bigger discussion about the county road system during a County Commission meeting Wednesday.

Western District Commissioner Chris Wrigley said he had received numerous telephone calls from four home-owners on the west side of the county after the past couple of storms.

It turns out a section of Kenview Drive in front of their homes has never been put into the county road system because it has not been brought up to county standards. A nearby section of Biscayne Drive is also not in the county road system, officials said.
