Concerning the distribution of aircraft fuel tax revenue.

HB 1083 changes how Washington's aircraft fuel tax revenue is split between airport projects and the state general fund. Starting July 2025, 0.5% of the tax revenue (increasing to 1% after 2027) goes to airport projects via the aeronautics account, while the remaining 6.5% minus that amount flows to the general fund. It requires the transportation department to track and annually report on funded airport projects, including state grants, federal matching funds, and local contributions. This directly affects airports receiving project funding and state budget allocations through these revenue changes.
