Text

Appropriation of amount - Statement to jurisdictions receiving revenue - Billing statement. A. The cost of the comprehensive program of revaluation shall be paid by appropriate warrants from those who receive the revenues of the mill rates levied on the property of the county in the following manner: The county assessor shall prepare a special budget for such comprehensive program of revaluation and file the same with the county excise board or county budget board. B. That board shall apportion such cost among the various recipients of revenues from the mill rates levied, including the county, all cities and towns, all school districts excluding any sinking funds of such recipients, in the ratio which each recipient's total tax proceeds collected from its mill rates levied for the preceding year bears to the total tax proceeds of all recipients, excluding sinking funds, from all their mill rates levied for the preceding year. C. Such amounts shall be included in or added to the budgets of each such recipient and the mill rates to be established by the board for each such recipient for the current year shall include and be based upon such amounts. Then the board and each such recipient shall appropriate the said amounts to the county assessor for expenditure for the comprehensive program of revaluation. D. The county assessor shall render a statement to each of the jurisdictions within the county which receive revenue from an ad valorem mill rate excluding sinking funds. Such statement shall include the following information: 1. The current fiscal year in which the charge has been incorporated in the jurisdiction's budget; 2. All jurisdictions receiving statements from the county assessor, the mill rate for each in the previous year, and the proportion of each to the combined mill rates of each jurisdiction within the county for the previous year; the proportions specified in this paragraph should sum to one hundred percent (100%); and 3. The charge for the entity receiving the statement as well as the charge for each jurisdiction of the county based upon the proportions specified in paragraph 2 of this subsection; the total of all current year charges for all county jurisdictions should sum to the total county assessor's budget for the comprehensive program of revaluation for the current fiscal year. E. In any county wherein any jurisdiction's budget and mill rates are not subject to review and approval by the county excise board, the county assessor shall nevertheless include any such jurisdiction in the calculations required under subsection A of this section. The county assessor shall also render a billing statement to any such jurisdiction showing the charge for the current fiscal year due from the jurisdiction. Such billing statement shall also show all the information specified in paragraphs 2 and 3 of subsection D of this section. Such billing statement shall clearly indicate that the charge payable by the jurisdiction is due and payable by December 31 of the current fiscal year.
