SF96 | A bill for an act relating to the abatement of property taxes owed on property owned by certain volunteer emergency services providers and including effective date and applicability provisions.(See SF 635.) | This bill authorizes a volunteer emergency services provider, as defined in Code section 100B.14(2), whose homestead is located in the local service area for which the provider is a volunteer and who has been a volunteer emergency services provider for five or more years, earns less than $5,000 per year for service as a volunteer emergency services provider, and is in good standing with the provider’s volunteer agency or entity, to file a petition with the county board of supervisors, requesting abatement of property taxes and special assessments assessed on the individual’s homestead and giving other information as the board may require. The bill requires the emergency service provider’s chief officer to sign and certify the petition specifying the emergency service provider is in good standing with the agency. The petition shall be filed by October 1 with the board of supervisors specifying the type of abatement sought under the bill. Following receipt of the petition, the board of supervisors shall forward a copy of the petition to the governing body of each taxing authority that levies taxes or special assessments on the homestead. If the board of supervisors determines a petitioner has satisfied all relevant criteria, the abatement shall apply to all applicable taxes and special assessments on the homestead, excluding those for which an objection by the governing body taxing authority was filed with or approved by the board of supervisors within 30 days of the board providing a copy of the petition. The bill requires the taxing authority to renew the objection each year the taxes and special assessments are abated. By December 31, the board of supervisors may order the abatement of the taxes and special assessments that are assessed against the petitioner’s homestead for the assessment year during which the petition is filed and, if specified by the board, the taxes and special assessments for one or more future years, subject to the petitioner continuing to meet the qualifications of the bill. The approved abatement shall not exceed the following: (1) for a volunteer emergency services provider that has not been a volunteer for at least 10 years, an abatement of 10 percent of all applicable taxes and special assessments imposed on the homestead, not to exceed $500; and (2) for a volunteer emergency service provider who has been a volunteer emergency service provider for 20 or more years, an abatement of 10 percent of all applicable taxes and special assessments imposed on the homestead, not to exceed $500, during the remainder of the volunteer emergency service provider’s life so long as the provider’s homestead is in the local service area of the agency or entity for which the provider was a volunteer. The bill also specifies the method of apportioning the abatement among each applicable levy and special assessment. The bill takes effect upon enactment and applies to property taxes due and payable in fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2026. | In Committee |
SF169 | A bill for an act relating to record access by members of cooperative associations providing utility service.(See SF 578.) | This bill provides that if a nonprofit cooperative association or cooperative association provides utility service to members, the most recent biennial report and financial information, including the budget and balance sheet, for the nonprofit cooperative association or cooperative association must be made available to a member within 30 days of a reasonable request by the member. A nonprofit cooperative association means a corporate body composed of actual producers or consumers of the given commodity handled by the association, whose business is conducted for the mutual benefit of its members and not for the profit of stockholders, and for which control is vested in its members upon the basis of one vote to each member. A cooperative association is one that deals with or functions for its member and that distributes its net earnings among its members in proportion to their dealings with it, except for limited dividends or other items permitted in Code chapter 499, and in which each voting member has one vote and no more. | In Committee |
SF359 | A bill for an act limiting liability for food dealers and owners of commercial vehicles who donate food to an Iowa food bank association.(See SF 590.) | GENERAL. Code chapter 190B currently consists of two subchapters; subchapter I provides for the farm to food donation tax credit and subchapter II provides for the Iowa emergency food purchase program. This bill creates a new subchapter shielding a food dealer or the owner of a commercial vehicle from civil liability when donating food to an Iowa food bank association (IFBA). SHIELD FROM CIVIL LIABILITY. The shield from civil liability applies to a food dealer when preparing or distributing the food under the regulatory authority of the department of inspections, appeals, and licensing (DIAL), or the department of agriculture and land stewardship (DALS). The shield also applies to the owner of a commercial vehicle when transporting such food. However, the shield only applies under certain circumstances. The food dealer or owner must not have had actual knowledge that the food would likely cause harm to an individual consuming the food in a normal manner. The shield only applies to a food dealer or to an owner of a commercial vehicle operating under a valid license. In addition, the food dealer or commercial vehicle owner must comply with required time and temperature controls for safety to limit pathogenic microorganism growth or toxin formation. The food dealer or owner cannot have declared the evidently safe food to be unsafe, or intentionally falsely advertised the evidently safe food to the IFBA. EVIDENTLY SAFE FOOD. Evidently safe food is defined as food that a reasonable person would consider to be safe to consume, if such person had all information regarding why the food could be considered unfit or unmarketable for retail sale due to a failure to comply with health and safety requirements. Evidently safe food does not include food that is regulated as alcohol, or subject to a government-issued stop order or court-issued injunction. FOOD DEALER, OWNER, AND IFBA. A food dealer refers to a food establishment or food processing plant regulated (licensed) by DIAL under Code chapter 137F. A food establishment includes an operation that stores, prepares, packages, serves, vends, or otherwise provides food for human consumption (Code section 137F.1). A food processing plant is a commercial operation that manufactures, packages, labels, or stores food for human consumption but does not provide food directly to a consumer (Code section 137F.1). A food dealer also includes a meat and poultry slaughter and processing establishment regulated (licensed) by DALS (Code section 189A.3), and a milk plant also regulated (permitted) by DALS (Code sections 192.111 and 194.3A). An owner refers to the owner of a commercial vehicle required to be regulated (licensed) by the state department of transportation under Code chapter 321. A commercial vehicle is a motor vehicle that has a gross weight of 10,001 or more pounds (Code section 321.1), among other things. IFBA refers to a nonprofit organization formed under Iowa law, exempt from federal income taxation, whose members include food banks, or affiliations of food banks, that together serve all counties in this state, and whose principal office is located in this state (Code section 190B.201). | In Committee |
SF108 | A bill for an act relating to the use of personal flotation devices on personal watercraft.(See SF 548.) | This bill relates to the use of personal flotation devices on personal watercraft. The bill requires all persons on board a personal watercraft to wear a personal flotation device. The bill provides an exception to the personal flotation device requirement when the person is at least 18 years of age and the personal watercraft is traveling at 10 miles per hour or less or is in a no-wake zone. Under current administrative rules, all operators and passengers of personal watercraft must wear a specified personal flotation device. A “personal watercraft” means a vessel, less than 16 feet in length, which is propelled by a water jet pump or similar machinery as its primary source of motor propulsion and is designed to be operated by a person sitting, standing, or kneeling on the vessel, rather than being operated by a person sitting, standing, or kneeling inside the vessel. A person in violation of the personal flotation device requirement is guilty of a simple misdemeanor punishable by a scheduled fine of $30. | In Committee |

SF349 | A bill for an act relating to the rules of civil procedure, including remedies for the failure to meet discovery deadlines. | This bill relates to enforcement of the Iowa rules of civil procedure discovery deadlines. The bill provides that the court may not waive or extend a deadline provided in Iowa rules of civil procedure 1.500 through 1.517 (discovery and inspection) unless all parties agree to the waiver or extension. If a party fails to comply with a deadline, the bill requires the court to assess a civil penalty against the party for violation of the rules and if the nonoffending party would typically file a motion to compel to enforce the missed deadline, then reasonable attorney fees shall also be awarded. The bill prohibits a court from waiving civil penalties or awards under the bill. The bill also provides that civil penalties and fees shall be in addition to any other remedy the party may be entitled to. | In Committee |
SF374 | A bill for an act relating to payment of reasonable attorney fees for contempt relative to a dissolution of marriage proceeding.(See SF 521.) | This bill allows a court that finds a person has willfully disobeyed a temporary order or final decree in a dissolution of marriage proceeding to direct the person to pay the reasonable attorney fees incurred by a party as a result of the person’s actions constituting contempt. | In Committee |
SF330 | A bill for an act relating to awarding costs and reasonable attorney fees to a prevailing party in a civil action and including effective date and applicability provisions. | This bill relates to the award of costs and reasonable attorney fees to a prevailing party in civil actions. Under current law, subject to certain exceptions, each party to a civil lawsuit is responsible for its own attorney fees. The bill provides that a court shall award costs and reasonable attorney fees to a prevailing party. The bill defines prevailing party as the party with a net monetary recovery, a defendant in whose favor a dismissal is entered, a defendant where neither plaintiff nor defendant obtains any relief, or a defendant as against a plaintiff who does not recover any relief against the defendant. If a party recovers other than monetary relief and in situations other than as specified, the court shall determine if a party is a prevailing party. The bill does not apply to actions by or against the state, other governmental entities, or public officials acting in their official capacity or under color of law. The bill requires the supreme court to submit legislative proposals, in due course, to the senate and house of representatives standing committees on judiciary to amend the Iowa Code to delete redundancies, resolve inconsistencies and conflicts, and remove any ambiguities caused by the bill. The bill applies to causes of action filed on or after July 1, 2025. | In Committee |
SF321 | A bill for an act prohibiting the expenditure of certain public moneys for dues or membership fees to high school organizations that do not use required enrollment calculations when determining school classifications for extracurricular interscholastic activities. | This bill relates to the expenditure of public moneys for dues or membership fees to high school organizations that do not use required enrollment calculations when determining school classifications for extracurricular interscholastic activities. The bill defines “extracurricular interscholastic activity” as a contest or competition for sports between different schools and outside the regular scope of a school’s curriculum. The bill defines “organization” as a corporation, association, or organization which has as one of its primary purposes the sponsoring or administration of an extracurricular interscholastic activity, but does not include an agency of this state, a public or private school or school board, or an athletic conference or other association whose interscholastic contests or competitions do not include more than 24 schools. The bill prohibits a school district or charter school from expending any moneys to pay dues or membership fees to a high school organization, or be a member of, participate in activities associated with, or receive services from such an organization after January 1, 2027, unless the organization, for the purposes of an extracurricular interscholastic activity, classifies each school participating in an extracurricular interscholastic activity for each school year beginning on or after July 1, 2026, based on enrollment, as adjusted for nonpublic schools that accept payment from an education savings account. Adjusted enrollment is calculated by multiplying the total number of students enrolled in the nonpublic school by 1.5. However, an organization cannot move a nonpublic school up more than one classification. Each nonpublic school must give its enrollment numbers to an organization prior to the beginning of a school calendar. The bill does not apply to eight-person football. For the school year beginning July 1, 2025, the bill provides that an organization may classify schools according to the methodology described in the bill, and school districts, charter schools, and nonpublic schools may expend moneys to pay dues or membership fees to an organization that does so. | In Committee |
SF291 | A bill for an act relating to vexatious litigation and providing penalties. | This bill relates to vexatious litigation and provides for penalties. The bill provides that a person commits a serious misdemeanor if the person or the person’s counsel files, brings, defends, or asserts a civil claim in bad faith or with no reasonable basis in law or fact. A serious misdemeanor is punishable by confinement for no more than one year and a fine of at least $430 but not more than $2,560. | In Committee |
SF51 | A bill for an act limiting the release of personal information maintained by the department of transportation to out-of-state persons, and making penalties applicable.(See SF 259.) | Under current law, records of the department of transportation (DOT) are generally open to public inspection during office hours. However, certain confidential records and personal information are protected and are not open to public inspection. “Personal information” means information that identifies a person, including a person’s photograph, social security number, driver’s license number, name, address, telephone number, and medical or disability information, but does not include information on vehicular accidents, driving violations, and the driver’s status or a person’s zip code. The DOT is prohibited from releasing personal information, if the information is requested by the presentation of a registration plate number, to a person, other than to an officer or employee of a law enforcement agency, an employee of a federal or state agency or political subdivision in the performance of the employee’s official duties, a contract employee of the department of inspections, appeals, and licensing in the conduct of an investigation, or a licensed private investigation agency or a licensed security service or a licensed employee of either. This bill prohibits the DOT from releasing personal information except to federal employees and other persons described in the bill who are employed or licensed in Iowa. Current law authorizes an officer or employee of a law enforcement agency to release the name, address, and telephone number of a motor vehicle registrant to a person requesting the information by the presentation of a registration plate number if the officer or employee of the law enforcement agency believes that the release of the information is necessary in the performance of the officer’s or employee’s duties. The bill prohibits an officer or employee from releasing personal information of a person issued a driver’s license by the DOT to an out-of-state person or agency if the release of personal information could be used to initiate a proceeding, issue a fine, or enforce any other penalty resulting from an alleged traffic violation unless ordered to do so by a court, or unless the person whose personal information is requested has provided express written consent allowing disclosure of the person’s personal information. By operation of law, a person who violates the bill commits a simple misdemeanor punishable by confinement for no more than 30 days and a fine of at least $105 but not more than $855. | In Committee |
SF52 | A bill for an act relating to the annual registration fee for certain vehicles owned by a volunteer fire fighter. | This bill limits the annual registration fee for a vehicle displaying fire fighter special registration plates and owned by an eligible volunteer fire fighter to no more than $100. The limited annual registration fee applies to only one vehicle per household. In order to qualify, the volunteer fire fighter must have served for at least five years, receive compensation of less than $5,000 per year for service as a volunteer fire fighter, actively attend and participate in monthly meetings, trainings, responses, and other duties, and meet any additional requirements established by the public entity that the volunteer fire fighter serves. | In Committee |
SF53 | A bill for an act prohibiting litigation financing contracts, and including effective date and applicability provisions. | This bill prohibits litigation financing contracts. Litigation financing contracts are agreements between a third party and a plaintiff, an attorney, or a law firm of a civil action in which the third party provides funding for legal expenses in exchange for a percentage of any settlement or judgment. The bill does not prohibit the provision of legal services on a contingency fee basis, or the advancement of legal costs, where such services or costs are provided for or on behalf of a consumer by an attorney representing the consumer in the dispute and in accordance with Iowa rules of professional conduct, a commercial tort claim, or a claim under Code chapter 87 (workers’ compensation). The bill takes effect upon enactment and applies to litigation financing contracts entered into on or after the effective date of the bill. | In Committee |
