2002 House Bill 6086

Introduced in the House

May 16, 2002

Introduced by Rep. Patricia Godchaux (R-40)

To allow certain wealthier school districts to levy additional property tax millage to pay for school operating expenses, and reduce the level of homestead and agricultural exemptions these districts must provide, subject to specified limits in the bill. This would partially reverse the limitation on new local school operating expense millage elections that was a component of the 1994 Proposal A property tax “cut and cap” initiative.

Referred to the Committee on Education
