| This bill expands the scope of the "public property" exemption from ad valorem taxation to include "all interests in property" that is "owned" by the Board of Regents but "held" by a third party under a contract to "operate" the property as long as the property's primary use is to "serve" a public college or university. The ad valorem exemption is contingent upon approval in a statewide referendum. |

| This legislation extends the sunset for the scrap tire fee from June 30, 2014, until June 30, 2019. This fee generates about $6 million annually and is supposed to fund the Solid Waste Trust Fund (for scrap tire clean up, landfill clean ups, litter reduction and recycling efforts at the local level). Over 60 percent of all funds have been redirected to balance the state's general fund since 2004 instead of being used for their statutorily-designated purpose. |
