  1  3 as follows:
  1  4    #1.  Page 1, by inserting after line 30 the
  1  5 following:
  1  6    "#   .  Page 4, by inserting after line 8 the
  1  7 following:
  1  8    "Sec. ___.  There is appropriated from the rebuild
  1  9 Iowa infrastructure fund to the department of economic
  1 10 development for the fiscal year beginning July 1,
  1 11 1998, and ending June 30, 1999, the following amount,
  1 12 or so much thereof as is necessary, to be used for the
  1 13 purpose designated:
  1 14    To a city, county, or community organization for
  1 15 infrastructure improvements related to the
  1 16 construction of a nationally sanctioned automobile
  1 17 racetrack facility for public use which meets the
  1 18 definition of vertical infrastructure pursuant to
  1 19 section 8.57, subsection 5, paragraph "c", to be
  1 20 located in Iowa:  
  1 21 .................................................. $  2,000,000
  1 22    The department may award the funds appropriated
  1 23 under this section to a city, county, or community
  1 24 organization in the form of a loan or forgivable loan
  1 25 for infrastructure improvements related to the
  1 26 construction of the automobile racetrack facility.
  1 27 However, as a condition of receiving the funds, the
  1 28 city, county, or community organization shall first
  1 29 demonstrate the commitment of substantial private and
  1 30 local moneys to financing the construction of the
  1 31 facility.  For the award to qualify as a forgivable
  1 32 loan, the city, county, or community organization
  1 33 shall be required to demonstrate to the department
  1 34 that the owner or operator of the racetrack facility
  1 35 has generated state and local taxes within a ten-year
  1 36 period that equal or exceed the amount of the award.
  1 37    The general assembly finds that a nationally
  1 38 sanctioned automobile racetrack facility in Iowa would
  1 39 result in a substantial economic benefit to the state
  1 40 and would offer thousands of spectators the
  1 41 opportunity to experience and discover Iowa.
  1 42    It is the intent of the general assembly to fund
  1 43 the nationally sanctioned automobile racetrack
  1 44 facility in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1999,
  1 45 and ending June 30, 2000, in the amount of $5,000,000.
  1 46    Notwithstanding section 8.33, unencumbered or
  1 47 unobligated funds remaining on June 30, 2002, from the
  1 48 funds appropriated in this section shall revert to the
  1 49 rebuild Iowa infrastructure fund on August 31, 2002."
