What’s in it
AI summary Counties can currently collect certain taxes to pay for emergency medical services if voters approve them. This new law would allow that money to be used to pay for the salaries and benefits of emergency medical workers.1
Read the official explanation
Code chapter 422D authorizes counties to impose a property tax levy, an income surtax, or a combination of both taxes within the county, excluding those areas within a benefited emergency medical services district under Code chapter 357F, to be used for specified emergency medical services costs, if the taxes are approved at election. This bill adds salaries and benefits of emergency medical care providers, as defined in Code section 147A.1, to the eligible expenditures from the county emergency medical services trust fund under Code section 422D.6.
