TAX/AD VALOREM: Provides for a study on the distribution of certain ad valorem taxes. (EN NO IMPACT See Note)
This bill proposes creating a committee to study how certain property taxes are distributed across Louisiana. The committee would include three senators and four representatives appointed by their respective leaders, with a requirement to ensure geographic and population diversity. Additionally, a member would be appointed by the Louisiana Sheriffs' Association to represent law enforcement interests. The study aims to examine the current allocation of ad valorem taxes, though the bill currently states it has no direct impact on tax amounts or rates.
