2 2 Sec. 2. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Act, being deemed of
2 3 immediate importance, takes effect upon enactment.
2 4 EXPLANATION
2 5 As a result of legislation enacted in the 2003 regular
2 6 session, the elderly and disabled tax credits were not funded
2 7 at the level required by the Code. Counties were authorized
2 8 to reduce the amount of the credit based upon the amount of
2 9 reimbursement available. This bill provides for an increase
2 10 in appropriations so that these counties will receive
2 11 additional reimbursement otherwise specified in the Code for
2 12 fiscal year 2003-2004. The bill requires counties to grant a
2 13 carryover tax credit to be applied to taxes due and payable in
2 14 fiscal year 2004-2005 for an additional amount. The
2 15 additional amount of reimbursement or carryover credit is
2 16 based upon the increase in appropriation made as a result of
2 17 the bill.
2 18 The bill takes effect upon enactment.
