AI Summary

This bill relates to municipalities and counties that adopt budgets that defund law enforcement agencies. The key provisions are: 1. It defines a "defunding municipality" as a municipality with a population over 250,000 that reduces its police department appropriation compared to the previous year, as determined by the criminal justice division of the governor's office. 2. It prohibits defunding municipalities from annexing new areas for 10 years after being designated as a defunding municipality, with some exceptions. 3. It requires defunding municipalities to hold an election on disannexing any areas annexed in the previous 30 years, and to immediately disannex areas where a majority vote for disannexation. 4. It adjusts the no-new-revenue maintenance and operations tax rate for defunding municipalities to account for any reductions in public safety spending, and limits their overall tax rate. 5. It allows the state to withhold a defunding municipality's share of sales tax revenue and use it for state law enforcement services in that municipality. 6. It requires defunding municipalities to increase their contributions to public employee retirement systems to at least the previous year's level. 7. It limits the rates and fees that municipally-owned utilities in defunding municipalities can charge customers.
