Bill Summary

AN ACT RELATING TO TAXATION; REDUCING AUTHORIZED PROPERTY TAX RATES FOR CLASS A COUNTY HOSPITAL FUNDING AND FOR TRANSFERS TO THE COUNTY-SUPPORTED MEDICAID FUND.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing laws to reduce the authorized property tax rates for class A county hospital funding and for transfers to the county-supported Medicaid fund. Specifically, it reduces the maximum mill levy rate for class A counties from $6.50 to $1.70 per $1,000 of net taxable value, with up to $0.39 of that rate allowed to be used for the county's transfer to the Medicaid fund. For other counties, the maximum mill levy rate is reduced from $4.25 to $4.00 per $1,000 of net taxable value. The bill also requires the county commissioners to submit any proposed mill levy increases to the qualified electors of the county for approval.
