Bill > SB21

This bill makes several changes to provisions related to property tax levies and the minimum number of precinct election officials in precincts using electronic pollbooks: - It modifies the information that must be conveyed in election notices and ballot language for property tax levies, including expressing the tax rate in dollars for each $100,000 of fair market value in addition to mills per $1 of taxable value. - It reduces the minimum number of precinct election officials required in precincts using electronic pollbooks from four to not less than two. The key provisions of this bill are: 1) Modifying election notice and ballot language for property tax levies to express the tax rate in both mills per $1 of taxable value and dollars per $100,000 of fair market value. 2) Reducing the minimum number of precinct election officials in precincts using electronic pollbooks from four to not less than two. This bill is intended to provide more transparent information to voters about property tax levies and reduce the minimum staffing requirements for precincts with electronic pollbooks. The changes related to property tax levy language aim to make the information more understandable, while the precinct staffing changes are intended to provide more flexibility for election administration in certain precincts.
