House Bill No. 1571 amends existing legislation regarding the Oklahoma Route 66 Commission by removing its expiration date, thereby allowing the Commission to continue indefinitely. The bill also modifies the Oklahoma Route 66 Commission Revolving Fund by changing the conditions under which funds can be budgeted and expended. Specifically, it allows for the budgeting and expenditure of funds in accordance with rules adopted by the Commission, rather than requiring prior approval from the Legislature.

Additionally, the bill establishes that the Oklahoma Route 66 Commission will be responsible for creating permanent rules related to funding applications, project processes, and reporting requirements to the Legislature. The effective date for this act is set for November 1, 2025.
