Madison, Wis Jan. IA, 1915.
Mr.. FL. A. Fry, Chairman County
Board, Forest Oounty,H
Dear Sir-Mr R Is. Elliott, chairman
of the town of Laona was in the office
this morning and stated that at the
last spring meeting of the town, a res
olution voting tax of $500 for the inn
provement of the Cavour road was car
Eied. Owing to the fact that this reso-
luton was not written, the town clerk
failed to record it in the minutes Of
the meeting, and the town board fail
ed TO apply for county and state aid on
ahis appropriation.
The State Highway Commission has,
by resolution, adopted policy that it
would not penalize town for the fail
ure of any of it's officials TO comply
with any of the statutes in applying
for state aid the commission feeling
that, when town votes an amount, it
should not be deprived of it's fair share
of the state funds by any neglect or
oversight. Therefore, if the county
board of Forest county sees fit to ap-
preparation to the town of Laona, be-
lieve that the highway commission
would consider the application for
$4,000 in state aid favorably This is
made possible by the fact that the
state fund for 1915 was not entirely ex-
hausted by the applications for state
aid. There is small balance remain
ing which may be used for that pur-
pose, despite any small irregularity in
the petition.
Yours very sincerely,
Wisconsin Highway Commission,
BY A. r. Hirst,
State Highway Engineer.
