Ms. Vaughn:  This resolution is the first part in placing the 3.0-mill road levy improvement and maintenance levy renewal on the ballot.  Mr. Slocum?

 

Mr. Slocum:  The renewal of this road levy is vital.  It pays for our roads, equipment and even salaries. Without this levy everything would basically stop.
