§ 11652 State Agency Tax Levy

This law says the government can charge a tax on property to make sure they have enough money to pay for things they promised in contracts.

Key Takeaways

  • •The government can add a tax on property if they need money for promises they made.
  • •This tax is only for things they need to pay soon, like within the next year.
  • •They can only do this if the property isn't already protected from taxes.

Example

Imagine the city promised to fix all the potholes on Main Street this year.

If the city doesn't have enough money saved up, they can add a small tax to people's property to get the money they need to fix the roads.
