Sterling calls special session approves road bond plan
Governor Sterling signs an $80,000 bill during the special session, shifting about $100,000,000 in debts from real estate to the gasoline tax. County road bonds cost roughly $7,000,000 annually, a burden on homeowners. In Potter County the saving is $80,000 yearly, about a quarter of the county tax levy. The move is praised as a major, taxpayer-friendly outcome of the session amid other measures.
