Bill Summary

The purpose of this bill is to remove the 30% cap on municipal stabilization funds.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to remove a restriction that limits the amount of money a municipality can have in its budget stabilization fund to 30% of its most recent general fund budget. Currently, if a municipality's stabilization fund exceeds this 30% cap, the excess money must be transferred to another fund. This bill would eliminate that cap, allowing municipalities to accumulate more funds in their stabilization accounts without being forced to move the excess.
