Controversy Over $350000 Shift in Federal Road Funds
A legislative committee reported that a Highway Board action approved by Gov. Keyser violated legislative intent by shifting 1.4 million dollars in federal aid for secondary roads from a 50 50 split to 75 25. Officials defend the move as in the states best interests, while critics claim disregard for the legislature. An additional 350000 may be needed to cover matching due to technicalities, with further political frictions noted between Keyser Holden Hoff and lawmakers.

Vermont High Court Opens Door For Reapportioning Session
Vermont's Supreme Court revived the chance of a special General Assembly session to realign Senate representation. A July 16 hearing on a Chancery Court decision delaying elections in two counties could allow Gov. Keyser to call lawmakers back two weeks before ballot printing. The court rejected a waiver bid and observers say a late July reapportionment bill could ensure orderly elections this year. Keyser seeks a judicial timetable before deciding on a special session.
