Volkswagen settlement grants for mass transit systems
Under current law, for each county or municipality in which an urban mass transit system operates, and which receives a grant for the replacement of public transit vehicles under the Volkswagen settlement, DOA must reduce the shared revenue aid it provides to the county or municipality based on the amount of the grant under the Volkswagen settlement. For a county or municipality in which the urban mass transit system serves a population of 200,000 or more, this bill changes the reduction from 75 percent to 20 percent of the grant amount, for grants awarded after the effective date of the bill.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
