Introduced

SB 245 - This act allows counties in which townships have been abolished to continue to collect a property tax on a county-wide basis for road and bridge purposes for either one year following the abolishment of the townships or until the county voters have approved a property tax for such purposes, whichever occurs first.

The property tax must be the same amount as the property tax being levied in the township with the lowest rate immediately before the townships were abolished.

This act specifies that the collection of the property tax is to be considered a continuation of a tax and not a new tax.
