STATEMENT
This bill amends the effective date of P.L.2010, c.44 to make the sections of law permitting cap "banking" retroactive to either fiscal year ending either June 30, 2010 (for school districts and municipalities operating on the State Fiscal Year) or December 31, 2010 for all other local units. Cap "banking" permits a county, municipality, school district, or other local unit to save any portion of the permitted 2.0% increase under the levy cap that is not used in any budget year for use in any of the next three succeeding budget years (in the case of a school district, it permits the banking of any portion of the permitted 2.0% increase and the applicable adjustments not used in any budget year for use in any of the next three succeeding budget years).
