Modifies motor vehicle fuel tax apportionment
This bill updates how Missouri distributes money collected from the motor fuel tax. It creates a specific fund to hold these revenues and outlines exactly how the money must be split among different groups. A portion of the funds will go to the state highways department, while other shares are allocated to counties, cities, towns, and villages based on population. Starting in 2025, the bill adds a new rule for tourist cities, where the average hotel occupancy rate from the previous year will be counted as part of the local population to determine how much money they receive. The remaining money after these allocations goes back to the state highways department.
