O YES fuel tax, motor vehicle fees for increasing policing of highway system. (�D NO RESULT OF"NO"VOTE:"No" vote rejects allowing fuel tax, vehicle fee use for increasing policing of highway system. SUMMARY:Amends Constitution.Currently con- stitution authorizes use of revenues from fuel tax and motor vehicle fees for:construction,recon- struction,improvement,repair,maintenance,op- eration, use of public highways, roads,streets, roadside rest areas;administration costs;high- way bond retirement; certain parks and recre- ation costs. Measure authorizes additional use of such revenues to increase policing of public highways,roads,streets,roadside rest areas by sworn law enforcement officers. Requires that such use increase police agency budgets to pro- vide service levels not previously authorized by budgets on measure's effective date. ESTIMATE OF FINANCIAL IMPACT: This mea- sure, alone, has no financial effect on state or local government expenditures or revenues. It allows the legislature to spend Highway Fund monies on additional highway patrol services. Local governments would also be authorized to spend road funds on additional patrol duties.
