Bill > SB297

This bill provides additional funding to the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) for right of way health and safety purposes during the 2025-2027 biennium. Specifically, the bill appropriates an unspecified amount of money from the General Fund to ODOT, with the appropriation being supplemental to any existing funding the department may already receive. The bill includes a standard legislative effective date provision, which means the law will take effect 91 days after the 2025 regular session of the Oregon Legislature adjourns sine die (a legal term meaning the session ends without setting a day to reconvene). By focusing on right of way health and safety, the bill appears aimed at addressing potential safety concerns or maintenance needs in areas under the department's jurisdiction, though the exact details and specific use of the funds are not elaborated in the provided text.
