What’s in it

AI summary Local emergency management commissions will now have the power to approve and collect special property taxes to pay for their own operations. This change moves that authority away from the county and gives it directly to the emergency management groups. These commissions will also be treated as local governments when it comes to managing their budgets.1

Read the official explanation

424(1) under the county’s supplemental property tax levy authority in an amount sufficient to pay for the maintenance and operation of the local emergency management agency. This bill authorizes the local emergency management commission to certify and levy the countywide special levy for the maintenance and operation of the agency and strikes the county’s authority to certify such a levy. The bill also specifies the local emergency management commission to be a municipality for purposes of Code chapter (local budgets). The bill applies to budgets for property taxes due and payable in fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2024.
