Bill > HB660

This bill modifies provisions relating to certain special taxing districts and introduces several key changes across multiple areas of Missouri state law. The bill requires the Department of Revenue to create comprehensive mapping features on its website that display sales, use, and property tax information for various political subdivisions, including detailed boundaries and tax rates. It introduces new restrictions on tax proposals, such as preventing a political subdivision from resubmitting a rejected tax proposal for two years, with some exceptions. The bill also adds requirements for establishing special districts, including mandating a two-thirds majority vote for ordinances involving sales taxes. Additionally, the bill introduces provisions for property tax assessment, including new rules about how motor vehicle values are determined, a program for prorating property taxes on totaled vehicles, and requirements for ballot language that clearly shows the real dollar impact of proposed tax changes. The bill also includes provisions exempting certain tax-exempt properties from special assessments and property taxes levied by districts. These changes aim to increase transparency in taxation, provide more clarity for taxpayers, and establish more structured processes for creating and modifying special taxing districts in Missouri.
