Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.B. No. 2428 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO TRANSPORTATION,"
begs leave to report as follows:
(1) Repair state roads and highways; and
(2) Incentivize the repair of county roads and highways by
matching funds that are used by the counties for road repairs, with certain conditions.
An individual testified in support of this measure.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Consolidating the amounts appropriated and allocated to the various counties into a single, lump sum appropriation of $10,000,000 to be made available for use as matching funds for the repaving and repairing of county roads with certain restrictions;
(2) Deleting the appropriation for state road repair;
(3) Changing the effective date to July 1, 2050, to encourage further discussion; and
(4) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2428, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 2428, H.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
