COUNTY WILL NOT

FUNDS FOB PAVING AVAILABLE
AT ANT TIME.
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.
