The committee recommeded to the board that the road program to be financed by gasoline tax funds be kept going and that no part of the gas tax money be used to help rebuild bridges. There is a legal point whether it would be lawful to use the gas tax money to rebuild bridges or not. It ia doubtful whether the gas tax money could be placed in the county fund for this purpose or even applied on die retirement of a bond issue. Road Program The road and bridge committee reported that to use the gas tax money , for any other purpose other than road • building would affect the county'^ secondary road program to a great extent. The committee reported as being reluctant to stop road work at present. The road program under way-at present lines up something like this: 1. Improvement of the Spring Grove - Lake county line road. 2. Improvement of the Harvard ts Lawrence roM. 3. Improvement of the Woodstock through Franklinville road. 5. Improvement of the Marengo " road west from Route 23. 6. Improvement of th* Algonquin ta Cary road. 7. Completion «f «*e »East road at McHenry. 8.

Petitions of three highway commissioners for five bridges at a cost of some $29,000 were deferred Tuesday until some information is learned on just how the county is going to finance the rebuilding program.. The petitions include one from A.__ H. Ehle of Hebron for $11,000 for the"* Lorden bridge and another for $3r500 for the Merry bridge, both in Hebron township. F. Carr of Greenwood presented two petitions, one for the Brand bridge nt a cost of $6,800 and one for the N. Aavang bridge at a cost of $3,500. A. E. Welter of Alden presented a petition for the Sackett bridge at a cost of $4,000. McHenry county is proud of its county road building program and the road and bridge committee feels confident that the majority of the pt?cple do not want to see it stopped.
