Bullitt County is “Tapped” again in road plan

According to a source, Gary Tapp had not proposed even a single dollar toward funding Bullitt County in the senate version of the state road plan. Not one thin dime. Despite the county serving the largest population of his tri-county district; despite the dire road situation on Highway 44 the most traveled connecting road from Shepherdsville to Mt. Washington, despite the taxes collected from Bullitt County residents, he chose to ignore Bullitt County.

Fortunately, the only state representative from Bullitt County, Linda Belcher, was able to secure funding when the senate version of the road plan fell apart and the house version was the only plan left standing.

Mr. Tapp has hand picked Paul Hornback, also from Shelby County, as his successor. Will Mr. Hornback also hold Bullitt County in such disregard if elected? Hopefully Bullitt County will not give him that opportunity. 

Request Senator Tapp to end his neglect of Bullitt County. Call his Frankfort office at (502) 564-8100 Ext. 648.
