Bill Summary

AN ACT ENTITLED: “AN ACT TRANSFERRING FUNDS INTO THE LOCAL ROAD AND BRIDGE ACCOUNT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.”

AI Summary

This bill provides for a one-time transfer of $30 million from Montana's general fund to the local road and bridge account, a special state revenue fund, by July 15, 2025. The transfer is designed to provide additional funding for local infrastructure projects, specifically targeting road and bridge maintenance or improvements at the local government level. The legislation establishes a specific deadline for the state treasurer to complete the transfer and sets the effective date of the bill as July 1, 2025. By allocating these funds to a dedicated account, the bill aims to support local transportation infrastructure needs, potentially helping municipalities and counties maintain and repair their road and bridge networks without drawing from their own limited budgets.
