Road tax charts show three year community success rates
Charts gauge success rates of communities served by municipal engineers over the 1980 1981 and 1982 period. They are compiled from county Liquid Fuels reports and exclude 1982 funds paid by the county government in 1983.
Politics Drive Funding in Local Liquid Fuels Allocations
Engineers from Birmingham Edgmont Ridley Park Trainer and Upper Providence discuss how politics influenced county aid in the past with some communities receiving far more funding. Chuck Catania’s areas and Upper Darby are cited for higher allocations while others say they could apply but were unaware. Democratic and Republican voices differ on whether politics governs money distribution and how much is granted each year.
