Judge Harrison Urges Road Levy For Coos County
Coos County Judge James W Harrison argues for a new five year road levy of 94 mills to fund major improvements and maintain a twenty year lag in road systems. He notes only about 10 percent of road costs come from taxes, with most from gas tax, PUC funds, timber sales, and land sales. A $10 per $1 000 assessed value levy would raise about $450 000 annually for road work and maintenance. He warns of revenue uncertainty if timber and gas receipts decline and urges voter support to stabilize planning and keep roads economically built.
