Proposes a constitutional amendment that requires Jackson County to have an elected county assessor instead of an unelected assessment department

HJR 24 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring Jackson County to elect its county assessor instead of using an unelected assessment department. This change would directly affect Jackson County residents and its local government structure, as it mandates that the assessor position be filled through a public election. The bill would amend Missouri's Constitution to add a requirement that all counties (except certain chartered counties) must have an elected assessor. If passed by voters, this amendment would take effect after the November 2026 election or a special election called by the governor.
