Washington 14th District State Representative Norm Johnson’s bill to allow local governments that receive state money for infrastructure project to carry over the funding into the next biennium until the project is done, is now on the Governor’s desk. Earlier in the session, the Yakima Republican’s bill had gotten hung up in committee. But Johnson said after a conversation with House Speaker Frank Chopp, a Seattle Democrat, the bill started to move. Johnson says currently local governments have to complete the project the money is appropriated for by the end of a biennium, or else they lose the funding.
