Cherokee County Voters Urged To Adopt Pavement Bond Plan
The Cherokee County Legion urges paying bonds to fund state highway paving with auto and gas tax funds, arguing it won’t tax property. They claim other counties have used this method without property taxes and show the county would receive about $212,270 if needed, while average annual payments would be $134,000. The piece notes Mark W. Bancroft seeks the Republican nomination for county attorney at the June primaries, with no stance from the editor on his candidacy.
