HB 202 -- TRANSPORTATION DISTRICTS (Rizzo)

This bill allows all property owners in a transportation
development district to cast their ballot by unanimous petition
approving any measure submitted to them as voters, if all owners
joined in the petition for formation of the district.  When a
procedure is used where no eligible registered voters reside
within a district, the court may call a meeting for the purpose
of electing directors without publication, if all real property
owners joined in the petition for formation of the district.

The sales tax for a transportation district may be imposed in
increments of one-eighth of one percent up to a maximum of one
and one-half percent on all retail receipts.  Currently, the
sales tax may be imposed in increments of one-eighth of one
percent, one-fourth of one percent, three-eights of one percent,
one-half of one percent, or one percent.

FISCAL NOTE:  Income to General Revenue Fund of $0 to Unknown in
FY 2002, FY 2003, and FY 2004.
