Assigned to APPROP FOR COMMITTEE
ARIZONA STATE SENATE
Fifty-Sixth Legislature, First Regular Session
FACT SHEET FOR S.B. 1735
transportation; 2023-2024.
Purpose
Makes statutory changes relating to transportation necessary to implement the FY 2024
state budget.
Background
The Arizona Constitution prohibits substantive law from being included in the general
appropriations, capital outlay appropriations and supplemental appropriations bills. However, it is
often necessary to make statutory and session law changes to effectuate the budget. Thus, separate
bills called budget reconciliation bills (BRBs) are introduced to enact these provisions. Because
BRBs contain substantive law changes, the Arizona Constitution provides that they become
effective on the general effective date, unless an emergency clause is enacted.
S.B. 1735 contains the budget reconciliation provisions for changes relating to
transportation.
Provisions
1. Deems, as ineligible to receive State Match Advantage for Rural Transportation Fund monies,
a municipality that is partially located in an urbanized area of a county with a population of
more than 1,000,000 persons.
2. Makes technical changes.
3. Becomes effective on the general effective date.
