A bill for an act relating to budgets of local emergency management agencies and including applicability provisions.

This bill changes how local emergency management agencies in Iowa fund their operations. It requires their budgets to be fully covered by specific local funding sources (like property taxes) and mandates that the local commission (defined as a municipality) certifies these budgets annually by February 28. The bill prohibits any other entity from amending these certified budgets after approval. These rules apply to property tax budgets for fiscal years starting July 1, 2026, directly affecting local emergency management agencies and their governing commissions.
