Adjusting percentage of tax retained by clerk of county commission for certain purposes
SB 743 authorizes county clerks to move funds between accounts with approval from the county commission. This bill does not change the existing requirement that counties retain 100% of real estate transfer tax revenues starting July 1, 2025 (a provision already established in current law). The bill directly affects county clerks and county commissions by increasing flexibility in managing county funds.
