Texas Road Debt Plan Backed by State Officials
Austin group studies highway debt retirement using one cent of the four cent gasoline tax to fund interest and principal over 25 years. Texas counties would see bonds largely retired by 1965 with $16.5 million set aside for ongoing obligations, potentially lowering ad valorem taxes and future interest rates. A separate proposal from Norman S Taber & Company recommends refunding bonds at 3 percent over 19 years.
