The commissioner may fix a date on or before which counties and municipalities shall file their annual work program, but in case of emergencies which were not anticipated, amendments thereto may at any time be filed and approved.
Prior to approving the programs and extending state aid to the projects set forth therein the commissioner may hold hearings with the governing bodies of the counties or municipalities concerned, with a view to recommending such additions to, removals from or changes in the work program as will best enable the counties and municipalities to develop the highways under their jurisdiction in co-operation and co-ordination with the state highway system and with each other. The commissioner may deny the extension of state aid to projects which in his judgment do not comply with this requirement.
