There should be a ruling on whether or not the road is private or public somewhere. I'm not saying you're not giving us full-disclosure with your initial post, but I'm certain, by what you've shared here, there's more history about this somewhere.
A city can't just service or not service a road at whim. There's a decision process behind this, and there should be record on file with the NH DOT (Dept of Transportation) about your road.
Does the trash pick up and grading have to do with the designation of the road? Or are there other factors? I think there's more history here... am I right?
I do know that some towns will go above the letter of the law to provide services, such as grading a road or trash pick up, and that may be your situation here. In other words, if yours truly is a designated private road, then the property owners utilizing that road are solely responsible for the maintenance of the road.
