California Legislature—2013–14 Regular Session

Assembly Bill No. 2250

Introduced by Assembly Member Daly

February 21, 2014

An act to add Section 14106 to the Government Code, relating to transportation.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

AB 2250, as introduced, Daly. Toll facilities: revenues.

Existing law provides that the Department of Transportation has full possession and control of the state highway system. Existing law authorizes tolls to be imposed on certain facilities that are part of the state highway system, including toll roads, toll bridges, and high-occupancy toll lanes. Existing law, in certain cases, provides for the toll facilities to be administered by local agencies.

This bill would require the department, when adopting statewide policies for toll facilities on the state highway system, to ensure that a majority of the toll revenues generated from toll facilities on the state highway system that are administered by local agencies remain available for expenditure by those local agencies.

Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: no.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.  

Section 14106 is added to the Government Code,
to read:

14106.  

The department, when adopting statewide policies for
toll facilities on the state highway system, shall ensure that a
majority of the toll revenues generated from toll facilities on the
state highway system that are administered by local agencies
remain available for expenditure by those local agencies.
