Bonds to Fund County Roads and Jail Upgrades
The proposal would use most road bonds for 10 to 15 year maintenance of Chambers County roads and to build a new road from Mont Belvieu to I 10 near Cordell Brick Plant serving Barbers Hill High School. A third project would relocate Needle Point Road to Canal Road east to Barbers Hill Road with an underpass. Jail and courthouse improvements are tied to the bond issue, with 40 percent paid by county residents and 60 percent by outside interests. The total estimated cost to voters is $410,000.
