Change provisions relating to fund transfers to the School District Property Tax Relief Credit Fund and the amount of tax relief granted under the School District Property Tax Relief Act

LB 564 adjusts Nebraska's School District Property Tax Relief Act by increasing annual funding for property tax credits. It mandates escalating transfers from the General Fund to the School District Property Tax Relief Credit Fund, starting at $750 million for fiscal year 2024-25 and increasing by $150 million each subsequent year through 2030-31 (e.g., $780 million in 2025-26, $808 million in 2026-27). These credits directly reduce property tax bills for homeowners in Nebraska school districts, calculated based on prior-year school district taxes and applied to tax statements. Unused credits are returned to the fund, and counties distribute funds to school districts via a defined formula. The bill repeals prior funding provisions and takes effect immediately upon enactment.
