What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Generally, under current law, local levy limits are applied to the property tax levies that are imposed by political subdivisions. A political subdivision may not increase its levy by a percentage that exceeds its “valuation factor," which is the greater of 0 percent or the percentage change in the political subdivision's equalized value due to new construction, less improvements removed. Current law also contains a number of exceptions to the levy limit, such as amounts a county levies for a countywide emergency medical system, for a county children with disabilities education board, and for certain bridge and culvert construction and repair.
The bill creates an additional exception to local levy limits. Under the bill, fee increases apportioned to each city, village, or town operating a joint emergency dispatch center do not apply to the levy limits, but only if the fees would cause the city, village, or town to exceed the levy limits, and only if the total charges imposed by the center for the current year, compared to the previous year, are less than or equal to the rate of inflation plus 2 percent. In addition, all member political subdivisions of a center must adopt a resolution in favor of exceeding the levy limit.
