What this bill does

AI summary from the official description

The bill lets certain local governments add a local sales and use tax to pay for emergency services, with rules that depend on the tax rate. It also ends an older county tax that paid for emergency medical services through rural health care facilities, and lets the State Tax Commission keep a fee from the collected revenue for administering the tax.
