Summary

The bill lengthens the time counties have to report mineral severance tax revenues deposited in their road funds from 30 to 90 days after the fiscal year ends. It requires those reports to go to the transportation commissioner and the chairs of the Senate and House transportation committees, and makes the reports subject to audit by the state comptroller. The change removes the comptroller as a direct recipient of the report but keeps oversight through the audit.
