Requires a twenty percent voter turnout for certain property tax elections

Summary

The proposal adds a new constitutional provision that any bond funded by property taxes, or any reauthorization of an existing property tax, cannot pass unless at least one‑fifth of eligible voters cast a ballot on the measure and a majority of those votes are in favor. It would affect local governments, school districts and other entities that rely on property‑tax financing, as well as the voting public, by demanding broader participation in tax decisions. The amendment did not receive enough support to become law.
