Although there is no Neighborhood Roads Fund legislation yet, proponents say the tax would improve residential roads by increasing resources for local governments. To generate money for the proposed Neighborhood Roads Fund, a 50-cent tax would be collected from retailers, including restaurants, on all deliveries made by motor vehicles. That revenue is shared among local road agencies, state roads and bridges, public transportation and aeronautics programs. “I would be fine paying taxes for roads if I was actually getting better roads,” Morgan said, “but I’m not. “The idea of funding local roads and streets from a very small fee on retail deliveries makes a lot of sense as a less intrusive way of funding our local roads,” Morgan said.
