What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law allows a municipality's governing body to enact an ordinance to

allow for the payment of property taxes in three or more installments. However, such

an ordinance must be enacted on or before August 15 of the previous year. This bill

allows a municipality's governing body to enact such an ordinance during the period

covered by the public health emergency declared by executive order 72 on March 12,

2020. The bill also allows the municipality to determine the dates on which the

installments are due and to waive or reduce interest and penalties accrued on any

late payment.
