This bill amends section 42-6106 of the Arizona Revised Statutes regarding county excise taxes. The key change is the removal of the population threshold for counties that can deposit tax revenues into the regional transportation fund. The new language specifies that counties with a population of more than four hundred thousand, as well as those with four hundred thousand or fewer, can collect and distribute net revenues from the excise tax to the department of transportation for transportation projects within their respective counties.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new provision that outlines the distribution of net revenues collected under this section, including interest earned, which were not previously addressed in the current law. The act is set to take effect on April 9, 2026.
