The 25 percent portion of the proposed 1 percent transportation sales tax will be discussed in more detail at a Gainesville-Hall Metropolitan Planning Organization meeting this week. Much has been discussed about the Transportation Investment Act program, which, if approved, would funnel 75 percent of tax proceeds to regional projects. Out of an estimated $1.25 billion for the Georgia Mountains region over 10 years, Hall would get about $300 million.
Eyes on the Road: Sales tax talk is planned at MPO meeting Wednesday
