Preparations Underway In Case Prop 1 Fails

The chairman of the state House Transportation Committee says lawmakers will come up with an alternative road funding plan if voters reject Proposal 1 on May 5th.

Representative Peter Pettalia told a group of credit union leaders recently that he’s told members of his committee to prepare for overnight stays at the Capitol to craft a new deal.

Governor Snyder has said there is no “Plan B” if voters say no to the deal reached at the end of the lame duck session in December.

The proposal would increase the sales tax, overhaul fuel taxes, end depreciation credits on vehicle registrations and more to put $1.2 billion toward road repairs.
