On the latest episode of the Conduit Street Podcast, Queen Anne's County Administrator Todd Mohn joins Michael Sanderson to discuss transportation financing and reflect on the proposed cutbacks to state projects and grant funding. Mr. Mohn is a member of the State's blue-ribbon Transportation Commission, reflecting his extensive experience as a county engineer and public works professional.
They discuss the story of Highway User Revenues, their central importance to local roadway maintenance, and the problematic effects of losing funding in the years ahead. And... will Singapore edge out Guam as the podcast's farthest unofficial outpost?
