    PRESS RELEASE December 19, 2018 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Justin C. Zachary | [email protected] | (501) 358-4999 Today, five citizen-taxpayers of the State of Arkansas asked an Arkansas Circuit Court Judge to prevent further expenditure of funds through the Connecting Arkansas Program for the purposes of (1) Expanding roadways that already have more than four (4) existing lanes (2) Expanding existing roadways of four or more lanes to six or more lanes Plaintiffs contend that such expenditures are a violation of the Amendment 91 of the Arkansas State Constitution. In its motion, Plaintiffs argue “…in virtually all places in Amendment 91 where the words ‘highway,’ highway system, ‘highway improvement’ or derivations thereof are used, they are in every instance preceded by the words “Four-lane.” That is also true of all references to the ‘Four-Lane Highway Construction and Improvement General Obligation Bonds’ and to the ‘Arkansas Four-lane Highway Construction and Improvement Bond Account.’ In all cases, the bonds or bond account are referred to as ‘Four-lane’ bonds or ‘Four-lane bond account. There is nothing ambiguous about the word ‘four.’” Despite the clear language of Amendment 91, these taxpayer raised funds are currently being used for expanding interstate highways that are not four (4) lanes. The State is currently using $58 million generated from the sales tax increase for expansion of approximately 2.5 mile portion of the existing six-lane Interstate 630 highway between Baptist Medical Center entrance/exit to University Avenue to eight or more lanes. The State is also proposing to use approximately $448 million generated from the sales tax increase to widen an approximately seven (7) mile section of Interstate 30 between the I- 440/I-530/I-30 interchange northward to the intersection of Interstate 40 with U.S.

    60090 Cover_46702 Cover 8/5/13 12:27 PM Page 1 Pro Produced in conjunction with TOURS The Little Rock Convention & Visitors Bureau of Base maps courtesy of Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department LITTLE ROCK 60090 Text_46702 Text 8/5/13 12:29 PM Page A1 TOURS OF LITTLE ROCK PREFACE I grew up on the car line in the Pulaski Heights area of Little Rock. From our house at 3415 Kavanaugh, my brother and I watched the streetcar turn around on “I” Street, if it was not scheduled to continue northwest on the gravel roadbed which began a few blocks from our house. I have seen a lot of changes in 70 years and it is difficult to see all of Little Rock without a guide. This guidebook is my offer to show you around Little Rock. The old street car line climbed 200 feet from downtown Little Rock to the Heights and in doing so, left the Delta and started up the mountains. Spring comes several days earlier in downtown Little Rock than it does in the Heights, and fall comes earlier in the Heights than it does in downtown. The Arkansas River carves a gateway between the Ouachita and Ozark Mountains to the Delta at Little Rock. The terrain drops only 200 feet from Little Rock to the Gulf of Mexico in the south and rises over 2,000 feet in the Ouachitas and Ozarks to the north and west. This varied ter- rain has a lot of sights and action. Little Rock is a paradise for sightseers, hikers, antiquers, histori- ans, sports, food lovers, and all the rest.
