Relating to the authority of a political subdivision to impose a fee to fund a climate or environmental project.

SB 2235 prohibits political subdivisions (like cities or counties) from imposing any fee - such as for permits, licenses, or services - to fund climate or environmental projects. The bill defines such projects broadly (e.g., reducing emissions, adapting to climate change) but explicitly excludes basic sanitation and waste disposal services. This restriction takes effect on September 1, 2025, preventing local governments from using fee-based funding for these specific initiatives. The law does not create new projects or funding mechanisms but limits how local entities may finance climate-related efforts.
