Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on October 2, 2026. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

6(11) authorizes the auditor of state to establish and collect a periodic examination fee from cities that are not required to have an audit or required fiscal year examination during a fiscal year. The auditor of state is required to base the fees on a sliding scale, based on the city’s budgeted gross expenditures, to produce total revenue of not more than $375,000 for each fiscal year. Current law also requires the auditor of state to provide or contract for training to city officials on municipal financial management if the periodic examination fees collected in a fiscal year exceed $375,000 using the excess funds.
