AI Summary

  • Creates the "Centrally Assessed Ad Valorem Volatility Reimbursement Fund" as a continuing revolving fund under the Oklahoma Tax Commission to reimburse counties and school districts for revenue losses from decreased valuation of centrally assessed property.

  • Counties qualify for reimbursement if they experience at least a 50% reduction in net assessed value from centrally assessed properties compared to the previous year and have a school district that realizes at least a 10% reduction in ad valorem tax revenues.

  • Qualifying counties receive 25% of the reduction in collections for the first two years after the valuation decrease, with second-year reimbursement calculated against the year immediately before the reduction triggered qualification.

  • Reimbursement funds prioritize school district revenue supplements first, with any remaining funds used to supplement county revenue losses.

  • Appropriates $2,000,000 to the fund from the General Revenue Fund for fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, with the act becoming effective July 1, 2025.
