Bill Summary

Requires a twenty percent voter turnout for certain property tax elections

AI Summary

This joint resolution proposes an amendment to the Missouri Constitution that would require a minimum of twenty percent of eligible voters to participate in elections concerning property taxes for such measures to pass. Specifically, any election to increase property taxes, approve a bond that will be paid for by property taxes, or renew an existing property tax will only be considered successful if at least twenty percent of eligible voters cast a ballot on the issue, and a majority of those votes are in favor of the measure. This aims to ensure broader voter engagement in decisions that directly impact property tax obligations.
