As we quickly approach voting day (tomorrow), we want to again stress the impact that voting yes on Prop 479 will have on Arizona roads and infrastructure, which is projected to "generate $14.9 billion to be funneled directly to the county’s infrastructure." Remember, Prop. 479 isn’t creating a new tax, just extending one that residents have been paying since 1985!
