The bill proposes an appropriation of $90 million for the fiscal year 2025-2026 to the Office of the Treasurer of State, specifically for the distribution of funds aimed at providing property tax relief to counties. This appropriation is supplemental to the funds already allocated by Act 541 of 2025. The funds will be sourced from the Property Tax Relief Trust Fund and are intended to support counties in reducing real property taxes.
Additionally, the bill includes an emergency clause, stating that due to unforeseen circumstances, the current funding for the Office of the Treasurer of State is insufficient to maintain essential governmental services. The emergency declaration emphasizes the urgency of the bill, allowing it to take effect immediately upon passage and approval, or after the expiration of the Governor's veto period if not acted upon. The bill also mandates compliance with existing fiscal control laws and regulations during the disbursement of the appropriated funds.
