Street Sign Decision Postponed

The Texas Highway Commission postponed a decision on paying 1 per cent of the cost to install street identification signs on San Antonio arterial streets. The estimated total is 898,008 with the federal government covering half. The panel questioned funding when paving or widening work wasn’t involved and asked Dingwall to discuss non federal costs with San Antonio. Commissioned voices argued for or against state funding and time limits on spending.
