AI Summary

This bill modifies existing law to allow the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), a regional government agency, to impose a tax on motor vehicle fuel sold within its jurisdiction, with certain limitations. The tax, which can vary annually but not exceed $0.10 per gallon, can be imposed for up to 20 years after voter approval and must be accompanied by a detailed transportation expenditure plan outlining specific projects and programs. This plan must ensure equitable distribution of funds across counties within the MTC's region, with a significant portion of revenue from each county being invested in projects within that county. The bill also clarifies definitions, allows for the MTC to issue bonds payable from these tax revenues, and makes several technical changes related to bond issuance and administration, while repealing outdated provisions regarding bond details.
