To earmark a portion of sales tax revenue to road projects. Specifically, the bill would allocate 18 percent of collections from the first 4 percent of the 6 percent state sales tax. (Under the 1994 Proposal A initiative, the next 2 percent of this tax all goes to schools). The bill would not change current law provisions directing 15 percent of that first 4 percent to to state revenue sharing to local governments, and 60 percent of it to schools.
