New State Highway Law Endorsed by Spokane Good Roads Expert
Frank W. Guilbert of the Spokane County Good Roads Association touts the new permanent highway law. It shifts funds back to counties, requires annual local road commitments, sets a minimum mile length for new roads, empowers county engineers, and imposes a 1 mill state levy with abutting property share. A two thirds abutting property petition can trigger county action unless another road serves greater local value.
