An Act amending Titles 8 (Boroughs and Incorporated Towns) and 11 (Cities) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in taxation and finance, further providing for tax levy; and, in taxation, further providing for tax levies.
This bill allows boroughs and cities in Pennsylvania to levy an additional annual tax of up to three mills specifically to support local police departments. The key provision requires that any increase in the tax rate for this purpose must be approved by voters through a favorable referendum held in accordance with state election laws. Local councils can only impose this new tax after obtaining such voter approval, ensuring that the community directly decides on the funding for police support. The changes apply to both boroughs under Title 8 and cities under Title 11 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes.
