Introduced
by
To require the Department of Natural Resources to notify a local government if it plans to acquire any new land in the jurisdiction that would be subject to payments in lieu of property taxes (PILT), and prohibit the acquisition if the local government disapproves it. The failure of the state to fully fund PILTs in recent years has been a sore point with local governments that have large tracts of state land in their jurisdiction.
Referred to the Committee on Local Government and Urban Policy
Reported without amendment
With the recommendation that the substitute (H-2) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
