  '  { +  SECTION 8. + }  { + (1) The Legislative Assembly finds
that issuing lottery bonds to finance transportation projects is
essential to promoting the state's economic development.

the following findings:
  ' (a) There is an urgent need to improve and expand publicly
owned and privately owned transportation infrastructure to
support economic development in this state.
  ' (b) A safe, efficient and reliable transportation network
supports the long-term economic development and livability of
this state. A multimodal network of air, rail, public transit,
highway and marine transportation moves people and goods
efficiently.
  ' (c) Local governments and private sector businesses often
lack capital and the technical capacity to undertake multimodal
transportation projects.
  ' (d) Public financial assistance can stimulate industrial
growth and commercial enterprise and promote employment
opportunities in this state.
  ' (e) Public investment in transportation infrastructure will
create jobs and further economic development in this state.
  ' (3) The factors described in subsection (2) of this section
will encourage and promote economic development within the State
of Oregon, and issuance of lottery bonds to finance
transportation projects is therefore an appropriate use of state
lottery funds under section 4, Article XV of the Oregon
Constitution, and ORS 461.510. + }

Commission shall allocate five percent of the lottery bonds
authorized by section 9 of this 2009 Act to rural airports.
