An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in school finances, further providing for school districts lying in more than one county or in more than one municipality and limitation on total tax revenues.

Summary

The bill amends the Public School Code so that any school district that spans more than one county or municipality must apply a uniform property tax rate across its entire area. It offers several methods for calculating market values and sets a cap that the rate cannot exceed 75 % of those market values, while also linking any rate changes to existing tax‑relief limits. The goal is to create fair, consistent funding for schools that cross jurisdictional lines.
