Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
(1) (a) A local governmental
entity's governing body may submit to the local governmental entity's electors the question of
whether the local governmental entity may waive the local governmental entity property tax
limit established in section 29-1-1702 in connection with a single property tax year, a specified
number of property tax years, or all future property tax years. If the majority of the local
governmental entity's voters voting thereon approve such a request, the local governmental entity
is not subject to the local governmental entity property tax limit established in section 29-1-1702
for the period of property tax years for which voters approved waiving the property tax limit.
(b) For a measure that is placed on the ballot after November 5, 2024, that would allow a
local governmental entity to waive the property tax limit established in section 29-1-1702 in
connection with a single property tax year, a specified number of property tax years, or all future
property tax years, the ballot title must begin "Shall the (name of the local government) waive
the 5.25% property tax limit for" and then must specify whether the local governmental entity is
seeking to waive the property tax limit for a single property tax year, a specified number of
property tax years, or all future property tax years.
(2) (a) The voters of the state, rather than the voters of any individual school district,
may waive the school district property tax revenue limit established in section 29-1-1702.5 in
connection with a single property tax year, a specified number of property tax years, or all future
property tax years. If the majority of the voters of the state voting thereon approve such a
request, all school districts are not subject to the school district property tax revenue limit
established in section 29-1-1702.5 for the period of property tax years for which voters approved
waiving the property tax revenue limit. The voters of an individual school district may not elect
to waive the school district property tax revenue limit established in section 29-1-1702.5 for that
individual school district.
(b) For a measure that is placed on the ballot after November 5, 2024, that would allow
all school districts to waive the school district property tax revenue limit established in section
29-1-1702.5 in connection with a single property tax year, a specified number of property tax
years, or all future property tax years, the ballot title must begin "Shall all of the school districts
in the state waive the 6% property tax limit for" and then must specify whether the property tax
limit would be waived for all school districts for a single property tax year, a specified number
of property tax years, or all future property tax years.
