Local option revenue bills did not meet floor action deadlines

Contact: Candice Bock, Sheila Gall

Two local option voter-approved revenue bills did not pass before the floor action deadline on February 15 and likely will not have further action this session. The bills are as follows:

  • HB 1025, would have provided a voter-approved local option 0.1 percent sales tax for parks funding.
  • HB 1811, would have authorized cities to use fire benefit charges to fund fire services.

Other finance bills that impact the state budget that are not subject to the February 15 cutoff could be included in the proposed budgets released on February 21.
