If this bill were to become law, it would update current statutes by allowing the Town of Patagonia to utilize the FY 2024 appropriation of $1,500,000 for the reconstruction of McKeown Avenue not only between Fourth Avenue West and State Route 82, as previously specified, but also between Third Avenue West and State Route 82. This change expands the scope of the project for which the funds can be used, thereby enhancing the town's ability to improve its infrastructure.
The bill would insert new language that clarifies the additional use of the appropriated funds, while also referencing the existing legal framework established by previous legislation (Laws 2023, chapter 135). There are no deletions from current law, ensuring that the original provisions remain intact while the new provisions are added to facilitate the broader use of the funds.
