New West Virginia proposal could boost county road funds
Legislative plan would let counties tap Accelerated Public Works funds with state match and federal aid to build secondary roads. Under a favorable 3-to-1 bracket, a $30,000 local input could yield a $400,000 project, all planned and supervised by the state road commission. Critics stress limits and urban practicality, while supporters cite stronger rural road development and county control.
