The highway commission and lawmakers weigh proposals on special assessments and funding for hard surfacing projects. The association urges opinions on abolishing special assessments, paying interest from primary road funds, and using bond funds to surface roads.

Legislators' views sought to shape better roads program

We are asking members of the Legislature for their views in order to obtain information of interest to good roads advocates and to the public. With this information we will be able to formulate our cultural program with a clear idea of what the lawmakers believe is wise. The present road law has excellent features and provisions that have caused bitter controversies and impeded progress. By threshing these differences out we hope to bring about an understanding to afford better roads for all.
