The bill establishes the Infrastructure Review Task Force in Nebraska, which is tasked with reviewing and analyzing the state's transportation infrastructure network. The task force will examine Nebraska's historical transportation development, assess current infrastructure conditions with a focus on highway safety, and make recommendations for maintaining and improving transportation infrastructure. Additionally, the task force will consider the economic impact of transportation in Nebraska and explore federal funding opportunities to support infrastructure needs.
The task force will consist of various members, including the Governor, legislative leaders, and other appointed officials, with nonvoting ex officio members included as well. The chairperson will be the chair of the Revenue Committee of the Legislature, and staff support will be provided by the Revenue Committee's staff. Members will serve without compensation and are required to submit an annual report by December 1, detailing their findings and recommendations, along with any necessary legislative drafts.
