HB 2057 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to video service providers

HB 2057 updates Missouri state law to clarify how municipal franchise fees are calculated for video service providers. The bill repeals an older section of the law and replaces it with new definitions for key terms, such as "video service," "gross revenues," and "video service provider." These definitions specifically include cable and internet-based video services while excluding mobile streaming and certain fees like equipment rentals or taxes. The legislation also details exactly which charges count toward the fee base, such as recurring video bills, while explicitly removing items like late fees and advertising revenue from that calculation. This change directly affects cities, towns, and counties that collect fees from companies providing video content to their residents.
