Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to the applicability of the law governing the provision of state aid to certain local governments disproportionately affected by the granting of ad valorem tax relief to disabled veterans.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the definition of "local government" in the Local Government Code to expand the types of local governments eligible for state aid related to ad valorem (property) tax relief for disabled veterans. Currently, the law applies to municipalities adjacent to military installations and counties with military installations. The bill expands this definition to include: (1) municipalities wholly or partly located in counties with military installations or adjacent to such counties, and (2) counties adjacent to counties with military installations. The changes will become applicable to disabled veteran assistance payments beginning with the fiscal year ending in the 2025 tax year, and the bill itself will take effect on September 1, 2025. The purpose appears to be broadening financial support for local governments that may experience reduced property tax revenue due to tax exemptions for disabled veterans, particularly in areas near military installations.
