Allocates $5 million to county rural access infrastructure funds over three fiscal years.

South Dakota SB240 allocates $5 million from the general fund to the Department of Revenue for distribution to county rural access infrastructure funds. Each county's allocation is based on the number of small structures on township roads and county secondary roads. Funds must be used for rural access infrastructure as prescribed. The secretary of the Department of Revenue approves vouchers, and the state auditor draws warrants for payments. Unused funds by June 30, 2031, revert to the general fund. The bill declares an emergency and takes effect immediately upon passage.
