Read the official explanation
In 2017, the general assembly amended Code section 321.477 to specify the powers, duties, and limitations of employees of the department of transportation (DOT) who are designated as peace officers by the DOT. Under the terms of the legislation, the amended language was set to be repealed effective July 1, 2018. In 2018, the general assembly extended the future repeal provision to July 1, 2019, and in 2019, the general assembly again extended the future repeal provision to July 1, 2022. This bill extends the future repeal provision to July 1, 2023. The bill takes effect upon enactment.
Changed since by amendment S-5144; see Amendments.
