2 10 EXPLANATION
2 11 This bill authorizes under certain circumstances a county
2 12 to certify a supplemental levy on an annual basis for excess
2 13 costs associated with the county's implementation of service
2 14 management provisions for mental health services or for mental
2 15 retardation and developmental disabilities services in
2 16 accordance with the county's approved management plans under
2 17 Code section 331.439. Code section 331.439 requires the
2 18 county, as a condition of state funding provisions, to
2 19 implement the service management provisions for mental health
2 20 and for mental retardation and developmental disabilities.
2 21 To exercise the supplemental levy authority, a county board
2 22 of supervisors must project that revenues for the county's
2 23 mental health, mental retardation, and developmental
2 24 disabilities services fund will not be sufficient to pay all
2 25 of the costs chargeable to the fund in the fiscal year. In
2 26 addition, the board must obtain the concurrence of the state-
2 27 county management committee for the board's projections and
2 28 adopt a resolution authorizing the levy.
2 29 An applicability section provides that the supplemental
2 30 levy authority first applies to taxes payable in the fiscal
2 31 year beginning July 1, 1999.
