Government leaders from Marshall County and Pulaski County, along with the City of Plymouth and town council representatives attended a joint meeting of the Marshall County Commissioners and Marshall County Council Wednesday night to learn how to generate funding for local roads and streets.
Pat Conner, Research Manager at the Indiana Local Technical Assistance Program through Purdue University, explained how counties can use the Local Option Highway User Tax (LOHUT) to generate funds for road projects. The combined bodies of government are concerned that the state will not be giving counties any more funding for roads in the proposed biennial state budget.
