Introduced Text

Pennsylvania HB1220 repeals provisions for local tax study commissions and further referendums in school districts.

Pennsylvania HB1220 repeals the requirement for school districts to establish local tax study commissions and adopt resolutions for further referendums. These commissions were previously tasked with studying existing taxes and recommending improvements. The bill also removes the need for school districts to hold referendums to approve earned income and net profits taxes or personal income taxes. The repeals affect school districts' ability to levy, assess, and collect certain taxes for funding homestead and farmstead exclusions or millage reductions.
