COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICTS

Current law requires the governing body of a municipality to adopt an ordinance to establish a proposed community improvement district. This act requires such ordinance to be approved by a two-thirds majority vote if the proposed district utilizes a sales tax as a proposed funding mechanism. (Sections 67.1421)

PRESIDENTIAL PREFERENCE PRIMARY ELECTION

This act establishes a presidential preference primary election to be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in April of each year in which a presidential election is held. (Sections 115.105 to 115.904)

This provision is substantially similar to SB 602 (2023) and HB 267 (2023).

TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT DISTRICTS

Current law requires a transportation development district (TDD) to submit a proposed project to the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission, or to the local transportation authority, as applicable, for approval prior to the construction or funding of any project. This act requires the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission, or the local transportation authority, as applicable, to approve such projects with a two-thirds majority vote if the proposed project utilizes a sales tax as a proposed funding mechanism. (Section 238.225)
