TITLE 32 HIGHWAYS, BRIDGES, AND FERRIES

Section 5. Funds for Public Roads, 32-5-1 through 32-5-31.

ARTICLE 1 FEDERAL FUNDS

32-5-2. Appropriation of funds to department.

All federal funds received by the state treasurer under Code Section 32-5-1 are continually appropriated to the department for the purpose specified in the grants of such funds except as such funds may be directed by the federal government to the State Road and Tollway Authority.

(Code 1933, § 95A-702, enacted by Ga. L. 1973, p. 947, § 1; Ga. L. 1993, p. 1402, § 18; Ga. L. 2001, p. 1251, § 1-5; Ga. L. 2010, p. 863, § 3/SB 296; Ga. L. 2015, p. 1072, § 2/SB 169.)

The 2010 amendment, effective July 1, 2010, substituted "state treasurer" for "director of the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services" near the beginning.

The 2015 amendment, effective July 1, 2015, deleted the proviso at the end of this Code section, which read: ", provided that no federal funds or funds appropriated to the department shall be expended for procurement of rights of way for a road to be constructed on a county road system except as otherwise provided by law or by agreement between the federal government and the department".
