AI Summary

This bill amends the Administrative Code of 1929 to modify the process for disposing of unserviceable personal property, road, and bridge materials or equipment owned by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The bill clarifies that when state-owned property is no longer useful, it must be transferred to the Department of General Services. For road or bridge materials and equipment declared surplus by the Department of Transportation, the bill establishes a specific procedure: first, the materials must be offered free of charge to the local political subdivision where they are located, provided the subdivision agrees to transport them. If the local subdivision declines, the materials can be offered for sale to other political subdivisions at the best available price. The bill also introduces specific provisions for road millings (fragments of recyclable road surface materials), requiring that they first be offered to the local political subdivision for free, with any subsequent sale proceeds deposited in the Motor License Fund. The legislation defines key terms like "millings" and "political subdivision" and specifies that the term "unserviceable property" only applies to previously purchased articles paid for with Commonwealth funds. The bill will take effect 60 days after its enactment.
