SB 678 Maryland Senate · 2024 Regular Session

Income Tax - Technical Corrections

This bill makes technical corrections to Maryland's income tax laws by removing outdated rules and fixing an incorrect reference to a repealed section. It directly affects the state Comptroller, who manages tax revenue distribution, and municipalities that previously received specific tax allocations. The legislation repeals obsolete provisions regarding how tax money was shared with local areas and updates a cross-reference in the tax code to ensure it points to the correct, current sections. Additionally, it clarifies the section number for a housing credit available to individuals and businesses for construction and rehabilitation projects. These changes are administrative adjustments designed to align the tax code with current statutes rather than altering tax rates or rates of revenue collection.
