2 19 EXPLANATION
2 20 This bill relates to the administration of the state
2 21 department of transportation. It authorizes the department to
2 22 encumber up to 50 percent of unused operational appropriations
2 23 to the department from the road use tax fund and the primary
2 24 road fund. The funds are to be used by the department during
2 25 the succeeding fiscal year for employee training and
2 26 technology enhancement. Any of the funds not used at the end
2 27 of that fiscal year for such training and technology will
2 28 revert to the fund from which the moneys was appropriated.
2 29 This bill establishes a standing limited appropriation from
2 30 the road use tax fund to support the county issuance of
2 31 driver's licenses and eliminates the requirement that the
2 32 department review plans and subsequent contracts for road,
2 33 bridge, and culvert construction on secondary roads.
2 34 This bill also specifies that money transferred from
2 35 lottery revenues to the railway finance authority for a
3 1 community assistance grant in 1994 Iowa Acts, chapter 1199,
3 2 shall not revert, but shall be transferred to the railroad
3 3 revolving loan fund.
