Change provisions relating to the levy authority of natural resources districts
This bill modifies the tax authority of Nebraska's natural resources districts to ensure they can continue funding their operations after a previous law was repealed. It grants districts the power to levy specific property taxes based on their funding needs, with higher limits allowed for districts in overappropriated river basins or those managing interstate compacts. To support these districts, the state commits to providing annual funding that increases by 3.5% each year, starting in fiscal year 2025-26, though districts retain the option to levy their own taxes if the state fails to meet this funding target.
