1.  A vertical infrastructure fund is created under the authority of the department of management.  The fund shall consist of appropriations made to the fund and transfers of interest, earnings, and moneys from other funds as provided by law.  The fund shall be separate from the general fund of the state and the balance in the fund shall not be considered part of the balance of the general fund of the state.  However, the fund shall be considered a special account for the purposes of section 8.53, relating to generally accepted accounting principles.

2.  Notwithstanding section 12C.7, subsection 2, interest or earnings on moneys in the vertical infrastructure fund shall be credited to the rebuild Iowa infrastructure fund.

3.  Moneys in the fund in a fiscal year shall be used as appropriated by the general assembly for public vertical infrastructure projects.  For the purposes of this section, “vertical infrastructure” includes only land acquisition and construction, major renovation, and major repair of buildings, all appurtenant structures, utilities, and site development. “Vertical infrastructure” does not include routine, recurring maintenance, debt service, or operational expenses or leasing of a building, appurtenant structure, or utility without a lease-purchase agreement.

a.  For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2005, and ending June 30, 2006, the sum of fifteen million dollars.
