Less Government, Lower Taxes and More Freedom - 2014 Legislative Session Day 22

In the Local Government Committee today, we’re hearing two bills and may take Executive Action on twenty bills. House Bill 2681 extends the date by which an annexation must commence in order to impose an annexation sales and use tax by two years to January 1, 2017; allows proceeds from an annexation sales and use tax to be used for a city's cost to prepare for annexation and modifies definitions related to the annexation sales and use tax provision.

House Bill 2682 increases the estimated cost threshold, above which all work ordered by a water-sewer district must be let by contract and competitive bidding, from $20,000 to $90,000.

The twenty bills that may receive Executive Action are House Bills 2187, 2218, 2234, 2245, 2278, 2288, 2298, 2311, 2401, 2433, 2442, 2481, 2499, 2547, 2593, 2618, 2637, 2677, 2681, and 2682.

With Policy Cut-off coming on Wednesday, expect to see more lists like this.
