What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under this bill, if in any year a municipality decreases the amount of its
municipal budget dedicated to hiring, training, and retaining law enforcement
officers so that it is less than the amount dedicated to that purpose in the previous
year, the municipality will receive a county and municipal aid payment that is
reduced by the amount of that decrease. The bill provides that the amount of all such
reductions will be distributed to the municipalities that did not reduce their law
enforcement budgets in proportion to each municipality's share of the total amount
of county and municipal aid payments. Furthermore, the amount of the reduced
payment that the municipality receives becomes the amount of county and municipal
aid that the municipality will receive in subsequent years.
The reductions under the bill do not apply to a municipality that transfers
responsibility for providing law enforcement to another local unit of government or
that enters into a cooperative agreement to share law enforcement responsibilities
with another local unit of government.
