Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to Bill LB 1067 focus on changes to the Affordable Housing Trust Fund and its funding mechanisms. Specifically, the bill now allows for temporary transfers from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund to various state funds until June 30, 2027, after which such transfers will cease. This adjustment is significant because it aims to provide immediate financial support for housing-related initiatives while ensuring that the Trust Fund is protected for longer-term use starting in 2027.

The bill amends several sections of Nebraska law to modify provisions regarding the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, the Rural Workforce Housing Investment Fund, and the rates and disbursement of the documentary stamp tax.

  • Section 58-703

    Transfers may be made from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund to the General Fund, the Behavioral Health Services Fund, the Lead-Based Paint Hazard Control Cash Fund, the Middle Income Workforce Housing Investment Fund, the Rural Workforce Housing Investment Fund, and the Site and Building Development Fund at the direction of the Legislature. → Transfers may be made from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund to the General Fund, the Behavioral Health Services Fund, the Lead-Based Paint Hazard Control Cash Fund, the Middle Income Workforce Housing Investment Fund, the Rural Workforce Housing Investment Fund, and the Site and Building Development Fund at the direction of the Legislature.

    This reinforces the ability to transfer funds before July 1, 2027, but restricts transfers starting July 1, 2027.

  • Section 76-901

    three → two

    This change reduces the documentary stamp tax rate from three dollars and thirty-two cents to two dollars and thirty-two cents for future real estate transfers.

  • Section 76-903

    three → two

    This aligns the previous amendment reducing the tax rate reflected in the distribution of funds for real estate transactions.

  • Section 77-1327

    three → two

    This change maintains the consistency in tax reporting thresholds and rates for property transactions.

  • Section 81-1230

    a one-time transfer of seven million three hundred thousand dollars on or before October 1, 2017, from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund to the Rural Workforce Housing Investment Fund.

    This removes the prior one-time funding stipulation from the Affordable Housing Trust Fund to the Rural Workforce Housing Investment Fund.
