Section 4034r. Laws of 1975, chapter 105, section 1 (1) and (2) are amended
24to read:
SB55-SSA1-SA2,658,17
1[Laws of 1975, chapter 105] Section 1 (1) The legislature finds that the existing
2system of allocating aggregate property tax revenues among tax levying
3municipalities has resulted in significant inequities and disincentives. The cost of
4public works or improvements within a city
or, village
, or town that is located in a
5county that does not contain any cities or villages has been borne entirely by the city
6or, village,
or town that is located in a county that does not contain any cities or
7villages, while the expansion of tax base which is stimulated, directly or indirectly,
8by such improvements, benefits not only the city
or, village
, or town that is located
9in a county that does not contain any cities or villages but also all municipalities
10which share such tax base. This situation is inequitable. Moreover, when the cost
11to a city
or, village
, or town that is located in a county that does not contain any cities
12or villages of a public improvement project exceeds the future benefit to the city
or, 13village
, or town that is located in a county that does not contain any cities or villages 14resulting therefrom, the city
or, village
, or town that is located in a county that does
15not contain any cities or villages may decide not to undertake such project. This
16situation has resulted in the postponement or cancellation of socially desirable
17projects.
SB55-SSA1-SA2,658,2418
(2) The legislature further finds that accomplishment of the vital and beneficial
19public purposes of sections 66.405 to 66.425, 66.43, 66.431, 66.435 and 66.52 of the
20statutes
, is being frustrated because of a lack of incentives and financial resources.
21The purpose of this act is to create a viable procedure by which a city
or, village
, or
22town that is located in a county that does not contain any cities or villages, through
23its own initiative and efforts, may finance projects which will tend to accomplish
24these laudable objectives.".
