SF 2476: A bill for an act relating to Iowa’s urban renewal law by modifying the division of revenue for certain emergency medical services property tax levies, and including applicability provisions.

This bill modifies Iowa's urban renewal tax rules to ensure that property taxes collected for emergency medical services are not used to pay off municipal debt or fund low-income housing projects. Under the new provisions, these specific emergency medical service taxes must be collected from all taxable property within the district without being diverted to special funds for urban renewal. The changes apply to property taxes due in fiscal years starting on or after July 1, 2027.
