10   industrial network of highways would benefit Iowa
11   transportation services, directed the commission to
12   focus at least part of their legislatively provided
13   resources on the commercial and industrial network,
14   and directed that the commission consider equalization
15   of accessibility for economic development as one of
16   the factors in establishing its plan and program

18   These actions recognize that interstate commerce and
19   national economic development are furthered and
20   supported by the national system of interstate and

26   department of transportation shall designate portions
27   of the commercial and industrial network of highways
28   as access Iowa highways and shall expedite and
29   accelerate development of access Iowa highways.  When
30   designating those portions of the commercial and
31   industrial network as access Iowa highways, the
32   department shall consider the direct and priority
33   linkages between economic centers within the state
34   with populations of 20,000 or more and the enhancement
35   of intrastate mobility and Iowa regional accessibility
36   and national accessibility.

41   department determines to be access Iowa highways.  The
42   department shall list the highway improvements
43   necessary to provide modern and safe four-lane highway
44   service on access Iowa highways.  The report shall
45   include program changes and options needed to enable
46   the early, rapid, expedited, and accelerated
47   completion of the development of access Iowa highways,
48   including funding and other support necessary to

46   or by any local board or commission, is submitted to
47   the electors, such the proposition shall not be
deemed
48   carried or adopted, anything in the statutes to the
49   contrary notwithstanding, unless is adopted if the
50   vote in favor of such authorization the proposition
is
Page  25

 1   equal to at least sixty percent of the total vote cast
 2   for and against said the proposition at said
the
 3   election.
 4     2.  Notwithstanding subsection 1, if the annual

 6   bonds issued by a county, school corporation, or city
 7   is to be offset with revenue from a local income
 8   surtax pursuant to section 76.21, the proposition
 9   shall so state and the proposition is adopted if the
10   vote in favor of the proposition is equal to a
11   majority of the total vote cast for and against the
12   proposition at the election.  However, a bond issuance
13   proposition proposing imposition of an income surtax
14   shall not be presented to the electors if in the first
15   year the income surtax is imposed the total of all
16   income surtaxes authorized by law and imposed in that
17   year on any taxpayer in the political subdivision
18   imposing the surtax would exceed twenty percent.  Upon
19   request of the governing authority, the department of
20   management shall certify the cumulative rate of income
21   surtax being imposed in the political subdivision.
22     3.  All ballots cast and not counted as a vote for
23   or against the proposition shall not be used in
24   computing the total vote cast for and against said
the
25   proposition.
26     4.  When a proposition to authorize an issuance of
27   bonds has been submitted to the electors under this
28   section and the proposal fails to gain approval by the
29   required percentage of votes, such proposal, or any
30   proposal which incorporates any portion of the
31   defeated proposal, shall not be submitted to the
32   electors for a period of six twelve months from the
33   date of such regular or special election.
34     Sec. ___.  Section 76.1, Code 1995, is amended to
35   read as follows:
36     76.1  MANDATORY RETIREMENT.
37     Hereafter issues Issues of bonds of every kind
and
38   character by counties, cities, and school corporations
39   shall be consecutively numbered.  The annual levy of
40   property tax, or combination of property tax levy and
41   income surtax imposed as provided in section 76.19,
42   shall be sufficient to pay the interest and
43   approximately such that portion of the principal of
44   the bonds as will retire them in a period not
45   exceeding twenty twenty-two years from date of
issue.
46   Each issue of bonds shall be scheduled to mature
47   serially in the same order as numbered.
48     Sec. ___.  Section 76.2, Code 1995, is amended to
49   read as follows:
50     76.2  MANDATORY LEVY - OBLIGATIONS IN ANTICIPATION
Page  26

 1   OF LEVY.
 2     The governing authority of these political
 3   subdivisions before issuing bonds shall, by
 4   resolution, provide for the assessment of an annual
 5   levy upon all the taxable property in the political
 6   subdivision, or the assessment of an annual property
 7   tax levy and imposition of an income surtax under
 8   section 76.19, sufficient to pay the interest and
 9   principal and interest of the bonds within a period
10   named not exceeding twenty years that provided in
11   section 76.1.  A certified copy of this resolution
12   shall be filed with the county auditor or the auditors
13   of the counties in which the political subdivision is
14   located; and the filing shall make it a duty of the
15   auditors to enter annually this levy for collection
16   from the taxable property within the boundaries of the
17   political subdivision until funds are realized to pay
18   the bonds in full.  The property tax levy shall
19   continue to be made against property that is severed
20   from the political subdivision and the income surtax
21   shall continue to be imposed upon the residents of any
22   area severed from the political subdivision after the
23   filing of the resolution until funds are realized to
24   pay the bonds in full.
25     If the a resolution which does not include
26   imposition of an income surtax is filed prior to April
27   1, or May 1, if the political subdivision is a
school
28   district, the annual levy shall begin with the tax
29   levy for collection commencing July 1 of that year.
30   If the resolution is filed after April 1, or May 1,
in
31   the case of a school district, or if the resolution
32   includes imposition of an income surtax, the annual
33   property tax levy shall begin with the tax levy for
34   collection in the next succeeding fiscal year.  If the
35   resolution includes the imposition of a local income
36   surtax and it is filed with the department of revenue
37   and finance prior to August 1, the imposition of the
38   surtax is retroactive to January 1 of that calendar
39   year.  If the resolution is filed with the department
40   of revenue and finance on or after August 1, the
41   imposition of the income surtax begins on January 1 of
42   the next calendar year.  However, the governing
43   authority of a political subdivision may adjust a levy
44   of taxes made under this section for the purpose of
45   adjusting the annual levies and collections and income
46   surtax rate for property severed from the political
47   subdivision, subject to the approval of the director
48   of the department of management.
49     If funds, including reserves and amounts available
50   for temporary transfer, are found to be insufficient
Page  27

 1   to pay in full any installment of principal or
 2   interest, a public issuer of bonds may anticipate the
 3   next levy of property taxes pursuant to this section
 4   or the imposition of an income surtax under section
 5   76.19 in the manner provided in chapter 74, whether
 6   the taxes so anticipated are to be collected in the
 7   same or a future fiscal year.
 8     To further secure the payment of the bonds, the
 9   governing authority shall, by resolution, provide for
10   the assessment of an annual levy of a standby tax upon
11   all taxable property within the political subdivision.
12   A copy of the resolution shall be sent to the county
13   auditor of each county in which the political
14   subdivision is located.  The revenues from the standby
15   tax shall be deposited in a special fund and shall be
16   expended only for the payment of principal and
17   interest on the bonds issued as provided in this
18   section, when the revenue from an income surtax as
19   provided in section 76.19 is insufficient.  Reserves
20   shall not be built up in this fund in anticipation of
21   a projected default.  The governing authority shall
22   adjust the annual standby property tax levy for each
23   year to reflect the amount of revenues in the special
24   fund and the amount of principal and interest which is
25   due in that year.
26     Sec. ___.  Section 76.4, Code 1995, is amended to
27   read as follows:
28     76.4  PERMISSIVE APPLICATION OF FUNDS.
29     Whenever If the governing authority of such
a~ 
30   political subdivision shall have has on hand funds
31   derived from any other a source other than
taxation
32   which may be appropriated to the payment either of
33   interest or principal or interest, or both principal
34   and interest of such bonds, such the funds may be
so
35   appropriated and used and the property tax levy and
36   income surtax rate, if imposed, for the payment of the
37   bonds correspondingly reduced.
38     Sec. ___.  Section 76.7, Code 1995, is amended to
39   read as follows:
40     76.7  PARTICULAR BONDS AFFECTED - PAYMENT.
41     Counties, cities, and school corporations may at
42   any time or times extend or renew any legal
43   indebtedness or any part thereof of the indebtedness
44   they may have represented by bonds or certificates
45   where such the indebtedness is payable from a
limited
46   annual property tax or from a voted annual property
47   tax, or from an income surtax imposed under section
48   76.19, and may by resolution fund or refund the same
49   legal indebtedness and issue bonds therefor running
50   not more than twenty years to be known as funding or
Page  28

 1   refunding bonds, and make provision for the payment of
 2   the principal and interest thereof from the proceeds
 3   of an annual property tax, or annual property tax
and
 4   income surtax, for the period covered by such
the
 5   bonds similar to the tax authorized by law or by the
 6   electors for the payment of the indebtedness so
 7   extended or renewed.

14   income taxes computed under section 422.5, less
15   credits allowed in sections 422.11A, 422.11B, 422.11C,
16   422.12, and 422.12B, and shall be imposed upon the
17   state income tax for each calendar year, or for a
18   taxpayer's fiscal year ending during the second half
19   of that calendar year or the first half of the
20   succeeding calendar year, and shall be imposed on all
21   taxpayers residing in the political subdivision on the
22   last day of the applicable tax year, and on taxpayers
23   residing in areas severed from the political
24   subdivision as provided in section 76.2.
25     3.  The income surtax shall be imposed to collect
26   an amount that is equivalent to sixty percent of the
27   sum of the principal and interest of the bonds over
28   the life of the bonds.  The rate of the income surtax
29   may be adjusted in any year for the sole purpose of
30   ensuring that an amount equivalent to sixty percent of
31   the principal and interest over the life of the bonds
32   is collected.
33     4.  At the time of the annual levy under section

35   received.  The auditor shall determine the amount to
36   be credited to each parcel of real property located in

38   or residential, and shall enter such amount upon the
39   tax lists as a credit against the tax levied on each
40   parcel of real property assessed as agricultural or
41   residential.  The county treasurer shall show on each
42   tax receipt the amount of tax credit to be applied
43   against property taxes payable in the fiscal year
44   following the year in which the surtax was collected
45   for each parcel of real property assessed as
