11/3/04-Missouri voters on Nov. 2 overwhelming approved Constitution Amendment No. 3, which requires “all revenues from the existing motor vehicle fuel tax (less collection costs) be used only for state and local highways, roads and bridges.”
The amendment also calls for the use of all other vehicle taxes and fees to pay off the state’s highway bonds.
It would also take $30 million in fuel tax now diverted to non-highway state duties and return it to highway uses.
More than 78 percent of those voting – 1.9 million – approved the measure, with only 21 percent – roughly 521,000 – voting against it.
