The purpose of these procedural rules is to formalize the process by which the farm-to-market review board, created by Iowa Code section 306.6, will administer its duties.
(1) Iowa Code section 306.6 requires the farm-to-market review board to make final administrative decisions based on sound farm-to-market road system designation principles for all modifications relative to the farm-to-market road system.(2) Iowa Code section 306.6A requires the farm-to-market review board to adopt procedural rules for modifications to the existing farm-to-market road system and designation of farm-to-market routes on new alignment. These rules implement this requirement.(3) Iowa Code section 306.5 states that the farm-to-market road system shall be a continuous, interconnected system and that provision shall be made for continuity by the designation of extensions within municipalities, state parks, state institutions, other state lands, and county parks and conservation areas.Iowa Admin.
