Gasoline tax to be collected by county officials
Des Moines reports that the senate advances tax measures in a special session plan. A 2 cent per gallon gasoline tax will fund primary and secondary roads, with distributions to counties by assessed property value and a large share potentially allocated to cities with populations over 9,000. The law also allows use of surplus in counties for highways radiating from cities, under city council and county board oversight.
