LC 17 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Maintain the county distribution level of metal mines license tax

This bill extends the deadline for distributing metal mines license tax revenue to Montana counties from 2019 to 2037. It directly affects county governments by ensuring they continue to receive a portion of these tax collections for a longer period. The legislation amends three existing state laws to update the termination dates, changing them from 2019 to 2027 and then to 2037. This change allows counties to maintain their current level of funding from metal mines licensing fees for an additional 18 years. The bill does not alter the tax rate or collection process, only the timeline for distributing the collected funds.
