Warren County considers $5 tag hike to fund bridge work
Warren County officials push a $5 license tag increase to raise about $115000 yearly for the highway department. County engineer Stanley Markey says funds would speed bridge replacements from 19 to 13 years, targeting about 40 percent of the county bridges at a cost of 3845000. He calls 170 bridges substandard and notes a second hearing is set for Saturday at 10 am in the administration building.
