State bond plan limits issue to 190 million dollars
The plan from over a year ago envisioned 100 million dollars of state bonds to retire county primary road bonds, but the state cannot issue bonds to retire county bonds. The total issue remains 190 million dollars and will fund construction. Current funds will retire bonds as they mature, ensuring the end result matches the original plan, with no more than 100 million dollars issued.
