"Money that has been used for roads and highways at every level of government will only be used at the state level of government." New predicted that McWherter's proposal will lead to increases in local property taxes hikes to cover road costs.

State officials said the TML, a lobbying and service organization for city governments, is using scare tactics in an effort to tap into state revenues needed for the road-building program. "It is a state bill to fund a state program. There is no requirement that the money be distributed" to local governments, said Finance Commissioner David Manning. Manning said cities won't lose any revenue they were already receiving if the governor's gas tax hike package is approved.

The state would pocket all the revenues raised from an increase, Manning said. "It's kind of hard to follow the leap of logic that they're pursuing," Manning said.

"The fact of the matter is, if we weren't receiving a gas tax raise to help fund a state program, I doubt' very seriously they would be saying: they might have to raise property taxes." New said the governor's proposal will put a cap on state gas tax reve-nues cities will receive and put the squeeze on local governments in the future. "Even if they are getting the same money they are right now, suddenly you are saying you are not going to increase those dollars," he said. "This cuts off any new money onto the cities for roads so any new money will have to be funded local-. ly." immediately.
