  1  1    Section 1.  Section 8.59, Code 1997, is amended to read as
  1  2 follows:
  1  3    8.59  APPROPRIATIONS FREEZE.
  1  4    Notwithstanding contrary provisions of the Code, the
  1  5 amounts appropriated under the applicable sections of the Code
  1  6 for fiscal years commencing on or after July 1, 1993, are
  1  7 limited to those amounts expended under those sections for the
  1  8 fiscal year commencing July 1, 1992.  If an applicable section
  1  9 appropriates moneys to be distributed to different recipients
  1 10 and the operation of this section reduces the total amount to
  1 11 be distributed under the applicable section, the moneys shall
  1 12 be prorated among the recipients.  As used in this section,
  1 13 "applicable sections" means the following sections:  53.50,
  1 14 229.35, 230.8, 230.11, 405A.8, 411.20, 425.1, 425.39, 426A.1,
  1 15 663.44, and 822.5.
  1 16    Sec. 2.  APPLICABILITY.  This Act applies to homestead tax
  1 17 credits allowed for property taxes due and payable in fiscal
  1 18 years beginning on or after July 1, 1997.  
  1 19                           EXPLANATION
  1 20    Code section 425.1 provides a standing unlimited
  1 21 appropriation to reimburse local governments for the value of
  1 22 the homestead tax credits.  For the 1992-1993 fiscal year, the
  1 23 general assembly notwithstood that section and appropriated a
  1 24 specific dollar amount which did not fully reimburse the local
  1 25 governments.  The general assembly froze, in Code section
  1 26 8.59, for the 1993-1994 fiscal year and subsequent fiscal
  1 27 years, the appropriation for reimbursement to local
  1 28 governments at the 1992-1993 level.  This bill eliminates the
  1 29 freeze for homestead tax credit reimbursement and returns the
  1 30 appropriation amount to a standing unlimited amount that will
  1 31 fully reimburse local governments.  The bill applies for
  1 32 credits allowed for property taxes payable in fiscal years
  1 33 beginning on or after July 1, 1997.
