  1  1    Section 1.  NEW SECTION.  80.41  HIGHWAY SAFETY PATROL
  1  2 FUND.
  1  3    A highway safety patrol fund is created as a separate fund
  1  4 in the state treasury.  Interest and other moneys earned by
  1  5 the fund shall be deposited in the fund.  The fund shall
  1  6 include moneys credited from the use tax as allocated under
  1  7 section 423.24, subsection 2.  The moneys credited to the fund
  1  8 for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1995, and ending June
  1  9 30, 1996, shall be appropriated as follows:
  1 10    1.  Thirty-two million, nine hundred sixty thousand, four
  1 11 hundred sixty-seven dollars shall be appropriated to the
  1 12 division of highway safety, uniformed force, and radio
  1 13 communications of the department of public safety to be used
  1 14 for salaries, support, maintenance, and miscellaneous
  1 15 purposes, including the state's contribution to the peace
  1 16 officers' retirement, accident, and disability system provided
  1 17 in chapter 97A in the amount of eighteen percent of the
  1 18 salaries for which the funds are appropriated.
  1 19    2.  Any revenues remaining shall be credited to the primary
  1 20 road fund created under section 313.3 to be used for the
  1 21 development and improvement of the commercial and industrial
  1 22 highway network under section 313.2A.
  1 23    It is the intent of the general assembly that moneys be
  1 24 appropriated from the general fund of the state to partially
  1 25 fund the division of highway safety, uniformed force, and
  1 26 radio communications of the department of public safety by
  1 27 fiscal year 1997 and to fully fund the division by fiscal year
  1 28 2001 and each fiscal year thereafter.  It is further intended
  1 29 that the fund created in this section be repealed when the
  1 30 highway patrol is fully funded from the general fund of the
  1 31 state and all use tax receipts designated in section 423.24,
  1 32 subsection 2, are deposited in the road use tax fund.
  1 33    Sec. 2.  Section 423.24, subsection 2, Code 1995, is
  1 34 amended to read as follows:
  1 35    2.  Twenty percent of all revenue derived from the use tax
  2  1 on motor vehicles, trailers, and motor vehicle accessories and
  2  2 equipment as collected pursuant to section 423.7 shall be
  2  3 deposited in the GAAP deficit reduction account established in
  2  4 the department of management pursuant to section 8.57,
  2  5 subsection 2, highway safety patrol fund created in section
  2  6 80.41, and shall be used in accordance with the provisions of
  2  7 that section.  
  2  8                           EXPLANATION
  2  9    This bill allocates 20 percent of use tax revenues to a
  2 10 highway safety patrol fund rather than the GAAP deficit
  2 11 reduction account.  It creates a highway safety patrol fund
  2 12 and allocates $32,960,467 of the moneys deposited in the fund
  2 13 to the division of highway safety, uniformed force, and radio
  2 14 communications of the department of public safety for the
  2 15 fiscal year beginning July 1, 1995, and ending June 30, 1996.
  2 16 The remaining moneys are appropriated to the primary road fund
  2 17 to be used for the development and improvement of the state's
  2 18 commercial and industrial highway network.  The bill provides
  2 19 language indicating that the intent of the general assembly is
  2 20 to partially fund the highway patrol from the general fund of
  2 21 the state in fiscal year 1997 and to fully fund the highway
  2 22 patrol from the general fund of the state by fiscal year 2001
  2 23 and each fiscal year thereafter.  It states that it is further
  2 24 intended by the general assembly that the highway safety
  2 25 patrol fund be repealed and the use tax receipts be deposited
  2 26 in the road use tax fund.
