Emmet County voting bonds for paved roads urged

A county bond issue of 750000 to pave Emmet County primary roads is advocated to secure state money without new taxes. The plan relies on state bond takeup, with no millage levy, and would fund construction in Emmet County by using primary road funds for interest and principal.

Emmet County Considers Bond Plan to Pave Primary Roads

A 1927 valuation based analysis proposes issuing up to 792000 in county primary road bonds to pave about 28 to 33 miles, funded by expected primary road allocations and without a tax levy. The plan notes interest and principal would be covered by primary road funds, with future 1929 valuations likely higher and enabling potential extra paving.
