Holcomb Threat to Withhold Sales Tax to County
Holcomb may stop routing part of its state sales tax to Finney County if the city council proceeds with a plan to fund a Railroad Avenue overlay solely within Holcomb. The $50,000 project could shift tax revenue flows, as Holcomb currently sends county funds from its statewide collections to support the Law Enforcement Center and courthouse remodeling.

Amtrak deal eyed to improve performance and financing
Washington officials say the tentative agreement with Amtrak will keep trains running while improving financial discipline. The plan would allow an immediate 100 million loan to continue operations for weeks and seek at least 100 million more from Congress to cover the budget gap through September 30. Transportation Secretary Mineta and Amtrak Chairman Smith say the accord will boost scrutiny and clarity on Amtrak’s finances and long-term prospects. They planned to brief Congress before finalizing the deal.
