Summary

The bill would allow voters in districts that already can levy a transportation transactions and use tax to impose a retail transactions and use tax through the initiative process. The tax could not exceed the maximum rate the district’s governing board could set, and the initiative would have to contain the same spending limits and accountability standards as a board‑approved tax. It does not apply to irrigation districts or districts without election procedures.
