Summary
Amends the Property Tax Code concerning the payment of refunds. Provides that, upon the request of a school district whose revenues are affected by the refund, the collector shall not, within any single 12-month period, make refunds in excess of $100,000 due from taxes that were collected for that school district for any particular parcel if the refunds are attributable to more than one taxable year, but, instead, the collector must divide the refunds due to any final orders of the Property Tax Appeal Board or a court into at least as many 12-month periods as the number of taxable years for which the refunds are due.
Bill Text
What changed in the latest version
2 added · 26 removedPlain-language change summary
The legislative changes to SB 27 specify that if refunds from property taxes are due to a school district, the tax collector cannot pay out more than $100,000 in refunds that span multiple years within a single year. Instead, they must spread these refunds over several years, based on how many years the refunds cover. This matters because it helps school districts manage their budgets more effectively by preventing sudden large losses of revenue from refunds, which can disrupt funding for education.
