HB 517: Regards special assessments for shade trees

HB 517 proposes to amend Ohio law regarding special fees for shade tree maintenance. It allows municipalities to create districts for managing street trees and levy annual fees on properties within those districts. The key provision exempts nonprofit land conservation organizations (defined as IRS 501(c)(3) groups focused on land conservation) from these special fees. This directly affects property owners who would pay the fees and the exempt nonprofits. The bill does not change fee amounts or collection methods, only specifies who qualifies for the exemption.
