The Proportionate Share Project, spearheaded by Mayor Chadwick in the City of Star, offers a groundbreaking solution to a pressing regional transportation challenge. It introduces the pioneering Proportionate Share Agreement, allowing new residential construction to directly contribute to a dedicated fund for state highway improvements within the city. Notably, this approach embodies the concept of growth paying for growth, enabling the successful widening of State Highway 44, a vital east-west artery, facilitating traffic flow, and ensuring rapid emergency responses.
