Betsy Webber outlines Amendment No 4 on the May 18 ballot to add Texas as a third participant in federal water quality aid. The plan would allow up to 59 percent federal matching funds with 20 percent local and 25 percent state grants and loans, backed by $100 million in bonds for cities and public agencies.
