RS31416 / H0729

This legislation clarifies that all highway user revenues accruing to the Highway Distribution Account, and ad valorem levies accruing, shall be spent in support of the operations, administration, maintenance, construction, and development of bridges and highways that benefit primarily motor vehicles in the local highway jurisdictions. Additionally, expenditure of these funds shall be certified annually stating that all highway user revenues and ad valorem levies have been expended for their intended purposes.

This legislation causes no additional expenditure of funds at the state or local level of government, nor does it cause an increase or decrease in revenue for state or local government, there this legislation has no fiscal impact.
