AB184,1,2
1An Act to create 86.303 (5) (f) 3. of the statutes;
relating to: local reporting
2requirements related to general transportation aids.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the Department of Transportation administers a general
transportation aids program that makes transportation aid payments to counties
based on a share–of–costs formula, and to municipalities based on the greater of a
share–of–costs formula or an aid rate per mile. Under the program, counties and
municipalities are required to submit an annual statement of costs to the
Department of Revenue. If a county or municipality fails to file the necessary
documentation by the specified deadline, but does provide the documentation within
30 days after the deadline, the amount of aid payable to that county or municipality
for the following year is reduced by 1 percent for each day late, up to a maximum 10
percent reduction. If a county or municipality fails to file the necessary
documentation within 30 days of the deadline, the amount of aid payable to that
county or municipality for the following year is reduced by 10 percent.
Under this bill, if a town fails to file the necessary documentation by the
specified deadline, but does provide the documentation within 30 days after the
deadline, the amount of aid payable to a town may not be reduced by more than $100
for each day that the necessary documentation is late.
