Clarke County Bonds Stir Public Debate Over State Road
The Clarke County vote centers on a $200000 bond issue to finance a state road from the Opequon to Ashbys Gap at about 30,000 per mile for a 14 foot macadam road. Citizens fear the county may loan funds without guaranteed repayment and question burden on taxpayers and local roads. Local advocates urge caution while officials contend early state aid may aid the project.

The key rule from USDA farm credit specialists is to ensure borrowed funds will yield a return greater than the debt service.
