2003 House Bill 4263 ↩

House Roll Call 157: Passed

To expand to "urban townships" the scope of the law which gives local governments the authority to establish "principal shopping district" zones. (See House Bill 4197, which would change the population thresholds of "urban townships.") These are zones in which special property tax assessments are levied for projects such as roads, pedestrian walks, parking structures, malls, traffic regulation, market research, public relations campaigns, and more. The bill would also allow contiguous cities to establish multi-city principal shopping districts that extend through more than one community.
