Indiana Code Title 8. Utilities and Transportation § 8-3-1.5-20.5

Current as of January 02, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Sec. 20.5. (a) A special fund to be known as the “commuter rail service fund” is established.  Any amount earned on money deposited in the fund is part of the fund, and the money in the fund at the end of any fiscal year does not revert to any other fund.  However, if the money in the fund at the end of any fiscal year exceeds the total amount deposited in the fund during that fiscal year and the immediately preceding fiscal year, the amount of the excess shall be transferred to the state general fund.

(b) The money in the commuter rail service fund is appropriated for distribution to commuter transportation districts.  However, before money is distributed to a district under this section, the governor must approve the distribution.

(c) A district that receives money under this section may use the money only for the maintenance, improvement, and operation of commuter rail service.  Money that is deposited in the fund under IC 6-1.1-8-35(c) must be used:

(1) to satisfy any annual debt service and required debt service reserves;  and

(2) if funds remain after all payments under subdivision (1) are made, and subject to the terms of any debt service agreement entered into by the district, to provide state matching funds for federal transportation capital grants.
