  • Under the Hood of CSA's Transportation Resolution ft. Supervisor Paul David, Sam Elters, and Jim Rounds
    Nov 19 2025

    In this episode, we break down CSA’s Transportation Resolution and explore the policy factors shaping Arizona’s transportation system. Find out why county HURF only buys about half of what it could ten years ago, and less than a third of what it could have when the Legislature last set the gas tax in 1990.

    Special thanks to Economist Jim Rounds, Graham County Supervisor Paul David, and Mohave County Manager Sam Elters for their insights.
