Road Plans Aired at 11th District Meet
The 11th district meeting in Cherokee was the sole Iowa session to vote against county and township road control by the board of supervisors. It favored a one cent per gallon gas tax for a secondary road fund and discussed plans to unify road work under county boards, outlining two road classes and the transfer of levy powers to supervisors. The commission noted inequalities and injustices in township road funding and proposed discretionary apportionment to equalize service, with examples of progress and slower regions to illustrate current conditions.
