STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS29585 / S1362
This amends Section 63-1001 to reduce the interest rate assessed on delinquent property taxes from 12% to 6%.
This only impacts the interest rate for the outstanding balance and not the 2% late fee. With rising property
taxes, this provides some measure of leniency for those struggling to pay their taxes.
FISCAL NOTE
No impact to the general fund is anticipated. The revenue received in interest is kept by the counties.
