What it does

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 Under the terms of the legislation, the amended language was set to be repealed effective July 1, 2018. The general assembly has extended the future repeal provision three times. This bill repeals the future repeal provision, thereby making the specified powers, duties, and limitations of DOT employees who are designated as peace officers permanent. The bill takes effect upon enactment.
