Minority Report Favored by Majority in Maury County Road Debate
At a Saturday meeting of Maury County citizens and road officials the majority opposed to the proposed new road plan sponsored by the joint committee recommended by the county court heard critics. A minority report denouncing the measure was read, leading to a split vote. 72 percent favored tabling the minority report while the body did not act on the main proposal. Speakers argued for and against the plan and current road supervision, with some endorsing state engineer backing and others insisting an engineer was unnecessary. The meeting showed strong local interest but no unity on the road system’s future.
