If enacted, this bill would amend current statutes related to local government in Arizona, specifically sections 11-251 and 41-1279.21 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. The bill would allow county boards of supervisors to establish and operate facilities providing veterans' services, which is a new provision (69. Establish, maintain and operate facilities that provide veterans' services.). Additionally, it would require the Auditor General to perform procedural reviews of county treasurer offices, including compliance evaluations and internal controls, and to provide written results and recommendations to relevant parties (9. Perform procedural reviews of county treasurers' offices...). Furthermore, the bill introduces provisions for counties with populations under 250,000, allowing them to meet fiscal obligations from any designated revenue source, with a cap of $1,250,000 for purposes outside the intended revenue use (A. Notwithstanding any other law...). It also mandates these counties to report on their revenue usage by October 1, 2025 (B. On or before October 1, 2025...). Overall, the bill aims to enhance oversight and flexibility in local government financial management while addressing veterans' services.
