Proposed Constitutional Amendment Taxing County Hospitals Arkansas
The General Assembly proposes a constitutional amendment submitting to voters at the next general election a tax for county or municipal hospital maintenance. It details a one mill limit, ballot wording for or against, tax collection, apportionment among hospitals, and self executing status upon approval. The measure outlines petition requirements, election certification, and enforcement provisions. It preserves court challenge deadlines and sets administrative steps for proceeds and budget allocation. The amendment would become part of the Arkansas Constitution if a majority vote is favorable.
