Riley County Commissioner Greg McKinley on Monday said he’s received complaints about a proposal that establishes driveway requirements for unincorporated part of the county. The county currently doesn’t have driveway requirements, but officials said the changes will allow easier and safer access for emergency responders. “I understand the purpose was to allow (EMS) access, but that seems like a pretty heavy requirement for a new home,” McKinley said. The commission didn’t vote on the matter Monday, but it continued discussion on the proposal. Proposed driveway requirements would only affect people building new homes in unincorporated residential developments in Riley County and wouldn’t affect existing homes.
