Five Million Minimum For Secondary Road System Adopted
The 1932 act guarantees at least five million dollars annually for the secondary road system funded by a motor fuel tax and general highway funds. It shifts maintenance to the state from counties starting July 1 1932, with county relief from local taxes, and requires inventories of road equipment. Local authorities may transit machinery to the state or retain assets with compensation.

The State Highway Commission may select streets and roads in towns with over 3500 residents for state system use and funding. Towns meeting standards receive 1500 dollars per year per mile, with additional construction funds up to 500 dollars per mile. Counties may vote to withdraw from the act by August 9 1932 with petitions due by July 1 1932.
