West Virginia to vote on 53 million road funding plan
Legislature poised to approve an 841 million general revenue budget with 53 million for roads funded mostly from federal revenue sharing. House and Senate conferees reached the figure after hours of negotiation as teachers receive 205 dollars per year in across the board raises and up to 390 more for experience. The move follows Governor Rockefeller’s initial push for 100 million for roads, later trimmed to 80 million to aid flood relief, extending the special session. Senate and House schedules set, gubernatorial appointments await action, and a bingo proposal is briefly discussed but not advanced.
