2 24 1997, is amended to read as follows:
2 25 1. A contingent fund is created in the state
2 26 treasury for the use of the executive council which
2 27 may be expended for the purpose of paying the expenses
2 28 of suppressing an insurrection or riot, actual or
2 29 threatened, when state aid has been rendered by order
2 30 of the governor, and for repairing, rebuilding, or
2 31 restoring state property injured, destroyed, or lost
2 32 by fire, storm, theft, or unavoidable cause, and for
2 33 repairing, rebuilding, or restoring state property
2 34 which is fiberoptic cable and which is injured or
2 35 destroyed by a wild animal, and for aid to any
2 36 governmental subdivision in an area declared by the
2 37 governor to be a disaster area due to natural
2 38 disasters or to expenditures necessitated by the
2 39 governmental subdivision toward averting or lessening
2 40 the impact of the potential disaster, where the effect
2 41 of the disaster or action on the governmental
2 42 subdivision is the immediate financial inability to
2 43 meet the continuing requirements of local government.
2 44 Upon application by a governmental subdivision in such
2 45 an area, accompanied by a showing of obligations and
2 46 expenditures necessitated by an actual or potential
2 47 disaster in a form and with further information the
2 48 executive council requires, the aid may be made in the
2 49 discretion of the executive council and, if made,
2 50 shall be in the nature of a loan up to a limit of
3 1 seventy-five percent of the showing of obligations and
3 2 expenditures. The loan, without interest, shall be
3 3 repaid by the maximum annual emergency levy authorized
3 4 by section 24.6, or by the appropriate levy authorized
3 5 for a governmental subdivision not covered by section
3 6 24.6. The aggregate total of loans shall not exceed
3 7 one million dollars during a fiscal year. A loan
3 8 shall not be for an obligation or expenditure
3 9 occurring more than two years previous to the
3 10 application.
3 11 When a state department or agency requests that
3 12 moneys from the contingent fund be expended to repair,
3 13 rebuild, or restore state property injured, destroyed,
3 14 or lost by fire, storm, theft, or unavoidable cause,
3 15 or to repair, rebuild, or restore state property which
3 16 is fiberoptic cable and which is injured or destroyed
3 17 by a wild animal, the executive council shall consider
3 18 the original source of the funds for acquisition of
3 19 the property before authorizing the expenditure. If
3 20 the original source was other than the general fund of
3 21 the state, the department or agency shall be directed
3 22 to utilize moneys from the original source if
3 23 possible. The executive council shall not authorize
3 24 the repairing, rebuilding, or restoring of the
3 25 property from the disaster aid contingent fund if it
3 26 determines that moneys from the original source are
3 27 available to finance the project."
3 28 #9. By renumbering, relettering, or redesignating
3 29 and correcting internal references as necessary.
