Fisher Promotes 50 Million Road Bond Plan in Pa Towns

Senator Fisher argues the $50,000,000 road bond issue will not raise real estate taxes since there is no state tax on real estate. He says corporations fund most state taxes through variety of charges, fees, and licenses, and that bonds will relieve taxpayers by routing costs to corporate revenue. He cites past bond issues since 1919 and asserts farmers and real estate owners won’t pay more.

State Highway Department Faces Huge Maintenance Costs

William Jennings of the Associated Highway Organization explains to Tallaws that 10,800 miles of state highways require upkeep. Earth roads, macadam, and other materials entail yearly costs around 100, 500 to 4000, and 200 dollars per mile respectively. With limited revenues, funds are drawn from automobile licenses, leaving only 2 million for replacements of worn macadam and other upgrades across 2700 miles, totaling about 150 million.
