Paved Road Plan From City to Kingman Filed For Vote
A petition to pave or concrete a public highway from the south side of East Liberty street in this city to the corporate line of Kingman via Coal Creek was filed with the County Board of Commissioners at its April term and ordered for promulgation. The road, though already improved, will receive new specifications and likely be costly to taxpayers under the New County Road Law and Beardsiv legislature, enabling a large road fund and potential graft opportunities.
