17         Section 31.  Subsection (8) of section 336.025, Florida
18  Statutes, is amended to read:
19         336.025  County transportation system; levy of local
20  option fuel tax on motor fuel and diesel fuel.--
21         (8)  In addition to the uses specified in subsection
22  (7), the governing body of a county with a population of
23  50,000 or less on April 1, 1992, or a municipality within such
24  county, may use the proceeds of the tax levied pursuant to
25  paragraph (1)(a) in any fiscal year to fund infrastructure
26  projects, if such projects are consistent with the local
27  government's approved comprehensive plan or, if the approval
28  or denial of the plan has not become final, consistent with
29  the plan last submitted to the state land planning agency. In
30  addition, no more than an amount equal to the proceeds from 4
31  cents per gallon of the tax imposed pursuant to paragraph
                                  1

    Amendment No. ___   Barcode 712598
  1  (1)(a) may be used by such county for the express and limited
  2  purpose of paying for a court-ordered refund of special
  3  assessments. Except as provided in subsection (7), such funds
  4  shall not be used for the operational expenses of any
  5  infrastructure. Such funds may be used for infrastructure
  6  projects under this subsection only after the local
  7  government, prior to the fiscal year in which the funds are
  8  proposed to be used, or if pledged for bonded indebtedness,
  9  prior to the fiscal year in which the bonds will be issued,
10  has held a duly noticed public hearing on the proposed use of
11  the funds and has adopted a resolution certifying that the
12  local government has met all of the transportation needs
13  identified in its approved comprehensive plan or, if the
14  approval or denial of the plan has not become final,
15  consistent with the plan last submitted to the state land
16  planning agency.  The proceeds shall not be pledged for bonded
17  indebtedness for a period exceeding 10 years, except that, for
18  the express and limited purpose of using such proceeds in any
19  fiscal year to pay a court-ordered refund of special
20  assessments, the proceeds may be pledged for bonded
21  indebtedness not exceeding 15 years.  For the purposes of this
22  subsection, "infrastructure" has the same meaning as provided
23  in s. 212.055.
