AN ACT relating to revenues for the provision of emergency services.

Summary

The bill lets fire protection districts and volunteer fire department districts in Kentucky impose a property tax of up to 10 cents per $100 of assessed value to fund fire services, and up to 20 cents per $100 if they also run an ambulance service. It also creates a process—public notice and a hearing—so districts can raise the tax rate above these limits when needed. The taxes are collected like regular ad valorem taxes and the sheriff receives a 1% collection fee.
