HB 2925 -- PROPERTY TAX ELECTIONS
SPONSOR: Fowler
Beginning January 1, 2027, this bill requires any question
submitted to voters by a political subdivision desiring to levy a
real property or personal property tax to be submitted only on a
general election day.
The bill standardizes ballot language for questions submitted to
voters by a political subdivision desiring to levy a real
property or personal property tax.
Currently, ballot language often describes a desired tax as a
specified amount on each $100 of assessed valuation".
This bill requires ballot language to describe the desired tax as
a specified amount per $100,000 of appraised value, depending on
whether the property is residential, commercial, agricultural, or
a motor vehicle.
