Road Bond Issue Promises Immediate Countywide Roads
The county weighs bonding for roads at 100000 for forty years with a ten year option at 5 percent. A 10 cent tax on the 100 dollar valuation would cover interest 5000 and a 2500 sinking fund, yielding 31000 redeemable in ten years. Compared with present 1909 levy and slow patchwork, bond plan promises good roads now, home money kept locally, and eventual tax relief.
