Wilson County commissioners move toward a weighted road maintenance formula that rewards increased paved road miles. Three commissioners and County Judge Marvin Quinney tentatively back the plan, but Commissioner Leonard Rotter opposes, noting a potential cut for precinct two from 31.4 percent to 26.2 percent and warning it could hurt district projects. County Auditor Ray Wolff says the surplus does not drive the formula and paving costs rise with seal coats.
