After the municipality is formed, locally elected town leaders would sit with other local government officials to determine which streets and roads would be county versus municipally maintained. Under state statutes and through intergovernmental contracts, the municipality can then ensure appropriate infrastructure funding using existing revenue sources, such as state and county gas taxes and state-shared revenue.

As a municipality, local citizens have a voice in transportation decisions, whether they be town, county, state, or federal-owned. Locally elected leaders can address our traffic issues directly by working with county, state, and federal agencies to meet the community’s needs.
