What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, beginning in 2010, the amount that each county and municipality spends each year for emergency services that are funded from county and municipal aid payments (shared revenue) must be no less than the amount that the county or municipality spent in 2009 for emergency services funded from shared revenue. This bill repeals that requirement.
