Printed Page 1369 . . . . . Thursday, March 30, 1995

provisions of this article and Chapter 47 of Title 2 of the 1976 Code. Notes may be issued in anticipation of the issuance of state highway bonds in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 17 of Title 11 of the 1976 Code.

In each odd-numbered year, beginning in 1995, the department shall review the state highway transportation needs and, upon conclusion of this review, the department shall recommend such projects as it deems advisable to consider in the ensuing year to the General Assembly and the Joint Bond Review Committee.

Whenever it shall become necessary that monies be raised for highway transportation purposes, or construction and equipment of headquarters administrative facilities, including monies to be used to refund any state highway bonds then outstanding, the commission may make request to the state board for the issuance of state highway bonds pursuant to this article. Such request may be in the form of a resolution adopted at any regular or special meeting of the commission. Such request shall set forth on the face thereof or by schedules attached thereto:

(1) the amount then required for highway transportation purposes;

(2) a tentative time schedule setting forth the period of time during which the sum requested will be expended;

(3) a debt service table showing the annual principal and interest requirements for all state highway bonds then outstanding;

(4) the amount of revenues derived from each of the sources of revenue during the preceding fiscal year; and

(5) the amount as estimated by the commission which will be derived from the sources of revenue during the then current and the next ensuing fiscal years during which it is expected that the state highway bonds then sought to be issued will be outstanding, but in estimating the amount to be derived from the sources of revenue the commission shall not assume that the revenues for the then current fiscal year or any future fiscal year will be more than five percent in excess of the actual sums derived from the sources of revenue in the preceding fiscal year, nor that in the sixth or subsequent years there will be any increase over the estimated revenues for the fifth fiscal year following the last completed fiscal year."

SECTION 5. The 1976 Code is amended by adding:

"Section 57-11-235. Following the receipt of any request pursuant to Section 57-11-220, the state board shall review the same and to the extent that it shall approve such request, it shall be empowered, by resolution duly adopted, to effect the issuance of state highway bonds, or pending the issuance thereof, effect the issuance of bond anticipation notes pursuant to Chapter 17 of Title 11."
