Shoshone County Keeps Debt Low with Pay-as-You-Go Policy

Shoshone county commissioners under a pay-as-you-go plan since January 1919 report no county debt from bonds or road warrants. Facing a state federal program to fund six bridges and Markwell hill removal, the plan would require a $80,000 county share. Voters and Good Road association supported reducing road maintenance to fund the share, approving $30,000 for the county, yielding a net maintenance saving of $31,901.60 for the year. This approach, with prudent budgeting, is cited as the reason for the county’s strong financial condition.
