     365.08 Town damage to private road is a charge if voted. 

    If a court finds that a town's officers ordered work done 
 on a private road believing that the road was public, the damage 
 caused and necessary expenses and costs incurred in the suit are 
 a claim against the town.  Before the claim becomes a charge to 
 be paid by the town, payment must be authorized by vote of a 
 majority of electors present at a town meeting.  First, there 
 must be due notice that the question will be considered and 
 voted on at the meeting.
