Street Financial Report (SFR) Information


General Information

Iowa Code section 312.14 requires all cities to submit the SFR to the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) by September 30 of each year. In accordance with Iowa Code section 312.15, the Iowa DOT must notify the state treasurer of each city not in compliance with this requirement. Once notified, the state treasurer will withhold the Road Use Tax (RUT) funds allocated to the city until the city complies. If a city has not filed its report by December 31 of the same year, RUT funds shall not be allocated to that city and all funds withheld under this provision shall revert to the street construction fund of the cities.
