Preliminary Fiscal Impact Statement for Original Bill
Sponsor: Sen. Reny of Lincoln
Committee: Taxation
Fiscal Note Required: No
             
Preliminary Fiscal Impact Statement
No state fiscal impact
Fiscal Detail and Notes
Prohibiting a facility that stores spent nuclear fuel or certain radioactive waste from qualifying as an air pollution control facility for the purposes of eligibility for a property tax exemption may increase municipal tax revenues. Because the property tax exemption for air pollution control facilities does not qualify for state reimbursement to municipalities there is no state fiscal impact.
