  1  1    Section 1.  Section 445.5, subsection 1, paragraphs e, h,
  1  2 and i, Code 1999, are amended to read as follows:
  1  3    e.  The complete name of all taxing authorities receiving a
  1  4 tax distribution, the amount of the distribution, and the
  1  5 percentage distribution for each named authority, listed from
  1  6 the highest to the lowest distribution percentage.  However,
  1  7 each taxing authority receiving less than three percent of the
  1  8 total tax distribution for a parcel need not be individually
  1  9 named but may all be grouped under a heading entitled other
  1 10 taxing authorities.
  1 11    h.  The total amount of property tax dollars reduced on
  1 12 each parcel for the county as a result of the moneys received
  1 13 from the property tax relief fund pursuant to section 426B.2,
  1 14 subsections 1 and 2.
  1 15    i.  The total amount of taxes levied by each taxing
  1 16 authority in the previous fiscal year and the current fiscal
  1 17 year, and the dollar amount difference between the two
  1 18 amounts, and that same difference expressed as a percentage
  1 19 increase or decrease.  
  1 20                           EXPLANATION 
  1 21    This bill makes several changes relating to information
  1 22 required to be placed on property tax statements.
  1 23    The bill allows county treasurers to group those taxing
  1 24 authorities receiving less than 3 percent of the tax
  1 25 distribution each under the heading "other taxing authorities"
  1 26 when listing tax distribution by taxing authority.
  1 27    The bill changes the requirement that the tax statement
  1 28 contain the amount of taxes reduced on the parcel as a result
  1 29 of the county's receiving a state payment for mental health,
  1 30 mental retardation, and developmental disabilities services.
  1 31 The bill requires that the statement contain the total amount
  1 32 of state payment received by the county for those services.
  1 33    Current law requires that the tax statement contain the
  1 34 amount of taxes levied in the previous year, the current year,
  1 35 the dollar amount difference between the two, and that amount
  2  1 stated as a percentage increase or decrease.  The bill removes
  2  2 the requirement that the difference be stated in dollars.
