Requires a twenty percent voter turnout for certain property tax elections

HJR 162 would require at least 20% of eligible voters to cast ballots in elections for new property tax bonds or renewals of existing property tax levies. For such measures to pass, they must also receive majority support from voters who participate. This directly affects local governments and school districts seeking to fund services like roads or schools through property tax levies. The bill sets these dual thresholds to ensure broader community engagement before tax-related measures can be approved.
