Bonds in Wexford County Hold Up Road Work
The Wexford County Road Commission faces shutdown as $212,000 in bonds plus interest due today cannot be retired. A state highway letter notes the department is sound but blocked by the auditor general and state treasurer, risking suspension of operations and relief work. The weight tax due April 15 is key to funding, with calls for drastic action including withholding state funds until balances improve. Local officials urge publication of the deputy commissioner’s letter and consider Van Buren county’s stance as a model.
