This bill proposes several updates to current Arizona statutes related to transportation. It amends section 28-339 to require the department to allocate and transfer $2,500,000 from the Arizona highway user revenue fund to the state match advantage for rural transportation fund by June 15 of each fiscal year. Additionally, it modifies the eligibility criteria for entities seeking federal grants by inserting a requirement for a match or reimbursement of a match, while maintaining the existing approval process from metropolitan planning organizations or councils of governments.

Furthermore, the bill repeals sections 28-6534 and 28-7282 from the Arizona Revised Statutes, effectively removing outdated legal language and provisions. The repeal of section 28-6534 signifies the elimination of a previous statute, while the repeal of section 28-7282 will take effect after June 30, 2035. Overall, these changes aim to streamline the funding process and enhance the support for rural transportation initiatives in Arizona.
