AI Summary
This bill establishes a local option gasoline and diesel fuel excise tax. It allows cities and towns to impose a local excise tax of up to 5 cents per gallon on the sale of fuel and special fuels (such as diesel) to retail dealers within their jurisdiction. The tax revenue must be deposited into a Municipal Fuel Excise Transportation and Stormwater Fund and can only be used for maintenance, repair, and improvement of roads, bridges, sidewalks, bikeways, public parking areas, public transit, and stormwater management. The bill also requires retail suppliers to file monthly reports with the state's Commissioner of Revenue on the amounts of fuel and special fuels sold to retail dealers in each city and town.
