to the revolving fund for access roads to industrial sites. 5 991
[

Approved March 31, 1964

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 33-136.1 of the Code of Virginia be amended and reenacted
as follows:

§ 33-136.1. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, from
the funds available to the State Highway Commission derived from taxes
on motor fuels, fees and charges on motor vehicle registrations, road taxes
or any other State revenue allocated for highway purposes, and after the
costs of administration but before any of such funds are distributed and
allocated for any road or street purposes, the Commission shall initially
set aside one million five hundred thousand dollars.

This fund shall be expended by the Commission for constructing,
reconstructing, maintaining or improving access roads within counties,
cities and towns to industrial sites on which manufacturing, processing
or other establishments will be built under firm contract or are already
constructed. At the close of each succeeding fiscal year the Commission
shall replenish this fund to the extent it deems necessary to carry out the
purpose intended provided the balance in the fund plus the replenishment
does not exceed the aforesaid one million five hundred thousand dollars.

(b) In deciding whether or not to construct or improve any such
access road, and in determining the nature of the road to be constructed,
the Commission shall base its considerations on the cost thereof in relation
to the volume and nature of the traffic to be generated as a result of de-
veloping the industrial establishment. No such access road shall be con-
structed or improved on a privately owned plant site. :

(c) Any access road constructed or improved under this section shall
constitute a part of the secondary system of State highways or the road
system of the locality in which it is located and shall thereafter be con-
structed, reconstructed, maintained and improved as other roads in such

system.
