Bill > SB2102

This bill amends the Property Tax Code to allow taxing districts, which are local government entities that levy property taxes, to file their annual budgets, appropriation ordinances (which detail how tax money will be spent), and revenue estimates electronically with the county clerk. Previously, these documents had to be submitted in paper form. The bill also mandates that if a taxing district files these documents electronically, the county clerk must accept and acknowledge this electronic submission by providing a receipt. This change is intended to modernize the filing process and is effective immediately upon becoming law.
