Summary

Local taxes; interest and penalties. Provides that the rate of interest set by localities that is charged on delinquent local taxes, and paid on refunds of local taxes, for the first year shall not exceed the "Underpayment Rate" established pursuant to §6621(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code. After the first year, the cap on the rate increases by two percent. Under current law, such interest rate shall not exceed the rate established pursuant to §6621(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code or 10 percent, whichever is greater. The bill also repeals a statute that automatically imposed an interest rate of 10 percent in any locality that does not enact an ordinance setting the interest rate. Finally, the bill authorizes the waiver of interest and penalty for good cause. The current law requiring the interest charged on delinquent taxes to be the same as the interest paid on tax refunds, is maintained. The bill contains technical amendments.
