No money to repair the roads?



Tax Makes Gas More Expensive in Washoe County

Taken directly from the article - first paragraph ..

If you've driven to Carson City lately you may have noticed that gas prices are a whole lot cheaper there. In fact Wednesday morning the price spread between Reno and Carson City was as much 40 cents a gallon. And that is because of a recent increase in the indexing fuel tax for Washoe County.

And the last paragraph which said the following ...

The fact that gas is so much cheaper in all of the other counties may be fueling business there for now, but according to Carson City Manager, Larry Werner, Carson is considering putting the issue before voters there as well,  because they have no funding for roadwork and even though it adds to the price at the pump, it may be worth it in the long run.
