New Mexico Enacts State Highway Commission Law
The act creates a three member State Highway Commission appointed by the Governor with Senate consent. Terms last six years, with staggered starts from 1917, and sets compensation at eight dollars per day plus expenses. It authorizes a State Highway Engineer and outlines duties, funding, road system planning, bid processes, and state county cost sharing for road construction and maintenance. The measure funds roads through a one half of one mill property tax and plus motor vehicle revenues, with at least twenty percent of funds for maintenance.
