Bill Summary

Amending the act of June 27, 2006 (1st Sp.Sess., P.L.1873, No.1), entitled "An act providing for taxation by school districts, for the State funds formula, for tax relief in first class cities, for school district choice and voter participation, for other school district options and for a task force on school cost reduction; making an appropriation; prohibiting prior authorized taxation; providing for installment payment of taxes; restricting the power of certain school districts to levy, assess and collect taxes; and making related repeals," in taxation by school districts, repealing provisions relating to local tax study commission and adoption of further referendum.

AI Summary

This bill repeals Sections 331 and 332 of the Taxpayer Relief Act, which relate to the establishment of a local tax study commission and the adoption of further referendums by school districts for the purpose of levying, assessing, and collecting certain taxes such as earned income and net profits tax or personal income tax. The bill removes the requirement for school districts to appoint a tax study commission and hold a public referendum before implementing these types of taxes. The bill aims to simplify the process for school districts to levy, assess, and collect these taxes without the additional steps outlined in the existing law.
