SB 484 Missouri Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Requires all elections for local tax increases to be held at a general election

SB 484 would require local governments (such as cities, counties, and school districts) to hold all votes on tax increases during regular general elections, rather than scheduling separate special elections. This means any proposal to raise local taxes - like for schools, roads, or services - would need to be voted on at the same time as elections for local officials (e.g., mayors or city council members). The bill directly affects local governments seeking tax increases and voters who would see these proposals included in broader election ballots. It does not change how taxes are set but alters the timing of voter approval for new or increased local taxes.
