This bill amends section 77-1720 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, which pertains to the fees, commissions, and mileage associated with distress warrants for tax collection. The proposed changes include increasing the fee for issuing each distress warrant from two dollars to twenty dollars. Additionally, the bill modifies the commission structure for taxes collected through distress and sale, raising the threshold for the higher commission rate from one hundred dollars to five hundred dollars. The new commission rates will be ten cents on each dollar for amounts not exceeding five hundred dollars and eight cents on each dollar for amounts exceeding five hundred dollars.
Furthermore, the bill repeals the original section 77-1720, which contained the previous provisions. The adjustments aim to streamline the process and potentially increase revenue for the county by updating the fee structure and commission rates associated with tax collection through distress warrants.
