Hagerman urges higher taxes and debt to fund highways
Former Gov. Hagerman, president of the New Mexico Taxpayers Association, argues the highway department can only be sustained by higher property taxes and more borrowing. He cites needed funds of about 3.6 million dollars annually, notes current gasoline and motor vehicle revenues fall short, and proposes suspending new federal aid road construction while using state allocations and gasoline taxes to retire debt and maintain 2,222 miles of completed federal aid roads.
