Clarke county road bond debate questions state aid
In Clarke county Clarke and Greenway districts voters face a 200000 road bond plan to loan funds to the State Highway Commission for a section to Washington Winchester road. The letter questions whether voting for bonds without issuing them helps or harms state aid and notes that repayment would occur only after road completion, with a tax increase to 2.50 per 100. Massie, chairman, argues money is loaned for Clarke County road work and would be repaid as Legislature allocates funds.
