Reference is to the bill as introduced.
Amend the bill, as and if amended, by striking all after the enacting words and inserting:
/ SECTION 1. Section 6-1-320(A) of the 1976 Code is amended by adding an appropriately numbered item at the end to read:
"(3)(a) A
municipality without an operating millage on January 1, 2019, or
a municipality that incorporates after January 1, 2019, may
impose an operating millage sufficient to generate one-third of
the municipality's general fund expenses in the previous fiscal
year.
(b)
Notwithstanding subitem (a), a municipality without an
operating millage on January 1, 2019, that previously imposed an
operating millage but repealed the millage, may re-impose an
operating millage up to an amount equal to its last millage plus
the cumulative amount of the increases that would have been
allowed pursuant to item (1) since 2007 or since the millage was
repealed, whichever is more recent. In calculating the millage
amount for reimposition, appropriate amounts must be adjusted to
account for rollback millage pursuant to Section 12-37-251(E).
For purposes of item (2), a municipality that re-imposes millage
pursuant to this subitem is deemed to have imposed the maximum
millage for the years prior to the reimposition.
(c)
After the operating millage is imposed pursuant to this
item, the millage is subject to the limitations on increases set
forth in item (1)."
SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor. /
