Diversion of Highway Funds Meets Resistance at Capitol
The budget shift moves $29 500 from highway funds earmarked for road improvement to expand the highway patrol radio system. Proponents argue it boosts patrol efficiency and frees officers for road duty, while critics say it drains road funds and adds patrol personnel beyond statutory limits. The act allows intra department transfers, with highway money usually added to county road improvement, not diverted.
