Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

5 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 4 mixed.

New habitat fees on building work

Counties with 700,000+ people can, by a two‑thirds vote, add a conservation fee to construction or grading. The fee must be based on an economic study and is collected with the building‑permit fee. Starting July 1, 2025, cities in these counties that have set up the special fund can also charge a reasonable fee, not capped at $550 per acre, based on costs. Money goes into a dedicated enterprise fund and can pay only the direct costs of habitat plans, programs, and preservation zones; interest stays in the fund. Beginning in FY 2026–2027, the county board may raise the fee by the West‑region CPI, with a two‑thirds vote.

Debt commission meeting date flexibility

County debt management commissions still meet each year, but the annual meeting is no longer locked to August. Commissions continue to organize in February. This gives local boards more scheduling flexibility without changing their duties.

Property tax sales: clearer deadlines, longer hours

County treasurer offices cannot close before 5:00 p.m. on business days. Delinquent‑tax notices now say the tax certificate issues at the office’s close of business on the first Monday in June. If you pay to redeem, payment must be in by the treasurer’s close of business on the third business day before the sale. A city can protect its claim by filing an affidavit by the treasurer’s close of business on the third business day before the sale; the deed can be withheld until amounts owed to the city are paid. These close‑of‑business standards apply under the law, and sections that state dates take effect July 1, 2025.

School reports shift from counties to cities

Associate superintendents in districts with more than 100,000 students no longer give in‑person quarterly reports to county boards. Starting July 1, 2025, they must report at least quarterly to each city where their assigned precinct is located. If a Community Education Advisory Board exists, they must also report to that board.

Fewer franchise notices in each town

When a franchise request affects more than one unincorporated town, the clerk now posts one notice in each town instead of three. The clerk must still post three notices nearest where the franchise will take effect. Other posting and publication rules remain the same. This change applies beginning July 1, 2025.
