A decision on the hill route agreement should be judged at the shared path marker at Flint Ridge, where the rule changes an ordinary route, shift or service. Trace each route from its entrance marker to the last branch that residents rely on. The current file is the Year fifth, first seep window 1 review, not a permanent settlement of every future case.
The the route agreement, repair notices and the two public marker boards lists 88 repairs posted at both ends before a path closes; the previous window lists 90. Kip Copper checked both against check-out slips compared with the handoff mark at the next station. The difference matters because how each side posts a closure before travelers reach the shared marker.
Each town posts promptly at its own end. Travelers need the same closure time on both boards. Those objections deserve a clear answer. They are not a reason to keep an uncheckable rule simply because its wording is familiar.
A useful decision names who will do the work, which count will change and when the result comes back to the public table. In this case, one notice board is inside the tunnel and the second faces the ridge.
The Year fifth, first seep window 1 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The route offices will share a dated notice before the next repair.
