Arkansas Budget Committee Advances River Bank Stabilization Plan
A state Budget Committee approves a $750 000 operation reserve for Red River bank stabilization with $19 million match, totaling $6 million from all sources. The plan aims to reduce erosion on 1400 acres over 37 miles, improve navigation, and boost regional soybean prices. Lawmakers debate session adjournment, highway funding, tax reallocations, and truck weight limits amid fiscal pressures. Local roads and revenue measures face resistance from the truck lobby and political divisions.
