Iowa redirects emergency medical tax revenue

Iowa protects certain emergency medical services property taxes from diversion into city urban renewal funds. These taxes are collected on all taxable property in the taxing district, subject to the existing exception in section 403.19(2)(b). This covers taxes under Iowa Code chapters 357F, 357G, and 422D. The law took effect May 2, 2026, and applies to taxes due in fiscal years beginning July 1, 2026. It changes where tax money goes, without setting new tax rates or household tax amounts.
