	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2704, Gaines. Transportation: local government funds.
   Existing law requires state fuel excise tax revenues to be
deposited in various accounts and to be allocated, in part, for
various purposes, including the cost of collection and authorized
refunds. Existing law requires the balance of these funds remaining
after authorized deductions to be transferred to, and deposited
monthly in, the Highway Users Tax Account in the Transportation Tax
Fund. Existing law provides for annual and monthly apportionment by
the Controller of specified revenues in the Highway Users Tax Account
to counties and cities for the transportation purposes authorized by
Article XIX of the California Constitution.
   This bill would require funding to cities and counties for local
snow removal from specified revenues in the Highway Users Tax Account
to be maintained as in effect on January 1, 2010.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, funding for
local snow removal shall be maintained as provided under subdivision
(b) of Section 2104 and subdivisions (a) and (b) of Section 2107 of
the Streets and Highways Code, as in effect on January 1, 2010.
