Representative J. Ee Harley Reads Letter from Highway Department ; ••. n at Monday’s Meeting. That Barnwell County will not lose "Its share of the three cents gasoline tax money which is to provide for system of hard-surfaced roads in this State if thojnemey is bet Used at this time is shown, in a letter from.the State Highway Department tP Co*. J. E. Harley and read by the Barnwell |\ representative *1 the school trustee*,’ meeting here Monday. A "report had gained circulation to the' effect that in order to beneftb^fe/ the proposed Paving program," the money • must be secured now. Col. Harley punted out that if the money is used a t oresent to pave the highways in and around Barnwell, Blackvilie am! Williston ii will bo necessary to bond tho-county for $360,000 amd that- .this county's share of. the two cents gasoline tax, amounting to $21,689.17 a year and which is being used at this tnre te improve county roads not in the State highway system, would have to be used to pay Interest on the bonds. He la oppoeed to doing this, even though he would benefit thereby in having paved road on two sides of his resi dence property here. The letter from the Highway De partment is as follows: "Hi response to your request, please be advised: “1. Estimated cost of the State Highway System in Barnwell County is $1,690,000. “2. The estimated cost of the en tire State Highway System (46 coun ties) m $107,000,000. "3. The cost of a State Highway jBystem in Barnwell County is 1.58 per cent, of the total cost of the State pystem. "4. The construction fund of the State Highway Department at present is $3,050,000 and Barnwell County’s share of this js approximately $48,- 000. "5. From year to year as the revenue of the Highway Department increa-ses the construction fund will be accordingly increased to correspond and the allotment (which is now $48,000) to Barnwell County will also increase in like proportion. “6. The State Highway Depart ment' now has reimbursement agree ments with Barnwell County providing for payment to the County of $5,000 in 1927 and $7,000 per year thereafter <md in addition an agreement in the sum of $25,000 for Route 39_ "7. Under the recent decisions of the State Supreme Court the High way Department is required to credit eahh County in the State annually with s pei rentage share of the ccnstruc- tion fund of the Department and thia credit, which we call allotment to the County, may be expended by the State Highway Department directly er it may be expended in co-operation with th" rounty authorities pursuant 4 to a reimbursement agreement. We n;w nave on file rn this Departmeftt a reimbursement a; ment in the sum of $360,000 with Barnwell County authorities for do ing certain paving. I understand that, pn account of bank failures and finan cial conditions in your county, you do net feel warranted in carryifig out this agreement at this time. You al so tell me that some of your constitu ents ate under the impreSajon that if this agreement is not carried out by the County. Barnwell County will lose this construction money or that dt will be used ficr or given to other Counties for Highway work. This is not tiu£. Barnwell County will be credited annually with whatever allot ment she is entitled to under the law and these amounts will be expended ultimately in Barnwell Ocunty. Of course, we would like to see the Coun ty carry out this agreement because we want to further the road building program as fast as pcssible, but the failure of the County to carry out the agreement at this time will not cause the money covered by it to be expend ed in any other County. This agree ment, or another agreement, can be caried into effect any time or year in the future and all unexpended allot ments credited bo Barnewll County will be available at whatever time the agreement may be made effective. H This letter was signed by Hon. Ben M. Sawyer, Chief Highway Commis- aioner.
