The Greenville City Council called an election for a $50 million street improvement bond Tuesday.
As proposed, the cityâs payments toward the bond would mostly be made with the $2 million per year that is normally set aside in each yearâs budget for the cityâs Street Improvement Plan, and therefore would not be a vote for a tax increase, Mayor Pro Tem Jerry Ransom explained at the last two city council meetings.
On Tuesday, Greenville City Manager Summer Spurlock outlined four possible scenarios for how the $50 million might be distributed between collector roads and residential roads. With the conditions of Greenvilleâs roads being a common complaint among residents, each scenario included more attention to residential roads and less to collector roads, when compared to the previous scenario.
