Highway Users Revenue Fund (HURF)On Thursday, February 16, the House Transportation Committee considered HCR 2058 (HURF; monies; allowable uses). The bill would constitutionally protect HURF and Vehicle License Tax dollars from future sweeps and restrict their use to traditional highway and roadway purposes. The League has worked extensively with the bill sponsor, Rep. Vic Williams (R-Tucson), and provided testimony in favor of the bill. Additionally, more than 20 cities and towns formally registered their support. The bill passed committee with a unanimous vote of 7-0.The bill is secondarily assigned to the House Appropriations Committee. The League thanks Chairman Williams for his leadership on this issue and supports his efforts to protect against the diversion of HURF funds away from municipalities, counties and the State Highway Fund. |
