Ask The Mayor: Crawfordsville's Todd Barton On Road Funding, Development Differences

Courtesy Crawfordsville Mayor's Office

It’s been a summer of sometimes frustrating road construction for Crawfordsville. Its local streets have been buffeted by orange cones and snarled by stopped trains and its interstate construction was delayed because of the I-65 mess in Tippecanoe County.

So this week on Ask The Mayor, we have Todd Barton weigh in on Governor Pence’s new road funding plan – which doesn’t give any new money to local road projects.

Also on this week’s show, when a conservative city councilman says the city shouldn’t pay an economic development group because it’s not showing results, how does the city respond? But what if he’s right and the numbers just aren’t there?
