New Gasoline Tax Plan Would Reroute State and County Receipts
A bill by Representative Laurence H. Norton proposes a major shift in gasoline tax receipts. State share rises from 45 to 50 percent, counties receive 20 percent, and 15 percent goes to counties by motor registration and 15 by road mileage, while municipalities lose all from the two cent portion.
