Removes limit in annual budget requests of certain county offices.
This bill removes a 2% annual limit on budget increases for property tax portions requested by specific county offices. It directly affects county clerks, surrogates, prosecutors, and sheriffs (referred to as "county constitutional officers" in the bill), which are defined in the legislation. The key provision eliminates the requirement that these offices cap annual increases in their property tax budget requests at 2% of the previous year's amount. The change applies immediately to the next county budget cycle following enactment.
