Fannin HB No. 1320
Abstract: Exempts certain rural water system projects from the capital outlay local match
requirement.
Present law requires nonstate entity projects to provide a match of not less than 25% of the
total requested amount of state capital outlay funding. Further provides for exceptions to
this local match requirement for projects deemed by the commissioner of administration to
be emergencies or projects which have demonstrated an inability to provide local matching
funds.
Present law requires the division of administration to promulgate rules establishing a needs-
based formula for determining the inability of a nonstate entity to provide the required local
match. Further requires the rules to be approved by the House committees on appropriations
and ways and means and the Senate committees on finance and revenue and fiscal affairs
before they are promulgated.
Proposed law retains present law but adds an exception to the local match requirement for
a project for a rural water system servicing less than 1,000 customers to extend or connect
waterlines to other water systems.
Provisions of proposed law shall be applicable to capital outlay applications submitted on
or after Jan. 1, 2009.
Effective upon signature of governor or lapse of time for gubernatorial action.
