TO AUTHORIZE THE INTRODUCTION OF A NONAPPROPRIATION BILL TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR COUNTIES USING CERTAIN STATE TAX REVENUES; AND TO CREATE THE EQUAL DISTRIBUTION COUNTY TURNBACK FUND.

Summary

The resolution would establish the Equal Distribution County Turnback Fund and direct the first $150 million of state tax revenues each fiscal year into it. When the fund reaches $150 million, $2 million would be paid to each of Arkansas’s counties, with 90% earmarked for roads, water, sewer and equipment and 10% for fire, law‑enforcement or community projects. The measure was intended to help financially‑stressed counties but died in committee.
