Bill > HB4367

This bill allows counties to keep and use any extra money collected from a voter-approved special excess levy, which is an additional tax requested for a specific purpose. Previously, any surplus funds above what was needed and approved by voters might have had different rules, but this legislation clarifies that if a special excess levy is approved, any money collected that exceeds the amount specifically requested and approved by voters will stay with the county that imposed the levy. This surplus money will then be managed as part of the county's general fund, meaning it can be spent on general county expenses like any other general fund money.
