Bill > SB1695

This bill makes several changes to Arizona law, primarily concerning expenditure limitations and tax revenue distribution. It repeals a section related to school district expenditure limits, effectively removing a specific restriction on how school districts can use certain funds. The bill also amends laws related to probation services, construction project cost limits, justice of the peace compensation, and how expenditure limitations are determined for political subdivisions and community college districts, including adjustments for transferred governmental functions. Additionally, it modifies provisions regarding the distribution of transaction privilege tax (often referred to as sales tax) revenues, specifically impacting how certain tax revenues are designated as the "distribution base" for further allocation. A key provision is that these changes will only take effect if the Arizona Constitution is amended through a separate ballot measure and will apply to fiscal years beginning after June 30, 2027, with specific sections requiring a three-fourths vote for enactment.
