§ 8209-3.6. Acceptance of dedications.

The County Surveyor is authorized to accept or reject on behalf of the County, or on behalf of any other public entity whose governing board is the Ventura County Board of Supervisors, any and all offers of dedication, whether by separate document or by certificate on the map. Acceptance pursuant to this Section of an offer of dedication of a street (including ways offered only for nonvehicular use such as equestrian and pedestrian trails) shall cause that street to become a public way open to use by the public unless the offer expressly provides otherwise. Acceptance pursuant to this Section of an offer of dedication of a street (including ways offered for nonvehicular use) shall not cause the street to become a County highway that the County is obligated to maintain unless and until the street is, by resolution of the Ventura County Board of Supervisors, expressly accepted into the County road system.
