One Cent Gasoline Tax Sparks Route Funding Debate
Park condemned a temporary one cent gas tax tied to highway funding. Highway Director F R Oliver warned Arkansas would lose about 7 million dollars yearly in federal highway funds if the tax drops to three cents on June 30. Park cited a House report showing 302 million dollars yearly from automotive excise taxes would be diverted to highway construction after expiration. The 802 million diversion would reshape federal highway financing.
