An Act Regarding Municipal Property Tax Levy Limits

This bill modifies how Maine municipalities calculate their annual property tax levy limits. It requires the State Treasurer to post annual revenue forecasts by April 15th to help towns plan budgets, and establishes a new formula using "average personal income growth" and a "property growth factor" to set the tax limit. The tax limit for a municipality is now based on the previous year's levy multiplied by one plus this growth factor, directly affecting all Maine towns and cities that set property taxes. The changes aim to provide clearer, data-driven guidance for municipal budgeting.
