Section 157-10-7 - Commissioner's Authority over Transportation Projects Accepted into the State Road System; Use of State Road Funds

7.1. The Commissioner has final approval of any transportation project. No state road funds may be used, singly or together with funds from any other source, for any purpose or in any manner contrary to or prohibited by the constitution and laws of this state or the federal government or where such use, in the sole discretion of the commissioner, would jeopardize receipt of federal funds.

7.2. All transportation projects that are accepted as part of the state road system, and all real property interests and appurtenances, will be under the exclusive jurisdiction and control of the Commissioner, who may exercise the same rights and authority as he or she has over other transportation facilities in the state road system. As a condition of acceptance of a transportation project into the state road system, the Commissioner may require that the project sponsor provide a dedicated revenue source for the continued operation and maintenance of the transportation project.

7.3. No state road funds may be used to finance a transportation project without the written approval of the Commissioner.
