STOCKBRIDGE — City and county governments across the state are voicing their concerns against the proposed Transportation Act of 2015, also known as HB 170.
Like others across the state, Stockbridge council members approved a resolution at their Monday meeting opposing the proposed bill, which could have large financial repercussions on local governments if passed.
