Road Use Tax Fund Estimates

Released June 2009

IDOT has also released an Excel spreadsheet of FY2010 estimates for cities with populations fewer than 500 in regards to RUTF and TIME-21 estimates and the amount that is transferred to the counties through Farm-to-Market Extensions.

Released May 2009

The Iowa Department of Transportation (IDOT) has released updated Road Use Tax Fund (RUTF) forecasts indicating per capita city street funds which are approximately:

  • $89.50 for Fiscal Year 2010
  • $92.50 for Fiscal Year 2011
  • $95.50 for Fiscal Year 2012
  • $97.50 for Fiscal Year 2013 and Fiscal Year 2014

Released January 2009

The updated RUTF/TIME-21 estimates for Fiscal Year(FY) 2009 are now available. It is very important to note that the FY 2009 RUTF estimate INCLUDES TIME-21 revenue(http://iowadot.gov/time21/index.htm). This is because the TIME-21 revenue will be distributed as part of your regular monthly allocations of City Street Fund revenue. The FY 2009 revenue reflects updated estimates of both RUTF and TIME-21 funding. RUTF revenue is lower than previously forecast primarily due to decreasing fuel tax revenue. The TIME-21 revenue is generally lower than previously forecast due to refinement of the estimating methodology and a decrease in forecast pickup truck sales.

The spreadsheet also includes separate TIME-21 ONLY estimates for FY 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012. It also includes estimates for the transfer to county amounts for Cities under 500 in population.
