A bill for an act relating to the financing of the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, expansion, improvement, or repair of conduit and the acquisition of associated real estate interests.

Iowa House Study Bill 302 (HSB302) was introduced on March 5, 2025, by the House Economic Growth and Technology Committee. The bill aimed to address the financing aspects related to the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, expansion, improvement, or repair of conduit systems, as well as the acquisition of associated real estate interests. Conduit systems are typically underground or overhead pathways used to house and protect utilities such as electrical cables, telecommunications lines, or other infrastructure. The bill sought to establish or modify financial mechanisms to support these activities, potentially involving funding sources, bonding authority, or other financial instruments. However, the bill did not progress beyond the subcommittee stage and was not enacted into law. ([legiscan.com](https://legiscan.com/IA/bill/HSB302/2025?utm_source=openai))
