  • Final 2019 Legislative Report
    MONTANA LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TOWNS Tim Burton, Executive Director Kelly A. Lynch, Deputy Director/General Counsel 2019 Montana State Legislature Final Report The 2019 legislative session adjourned on Thursday, April 25, 2019. The League tracked and actively lobbied more than 150 bills that affected Montana municipalities. In last few weeks of the legislative session, there were multiple attempts to raid entitlement share payments and shift other costs to cities and towns that would have resulted in cuts to local general fund revenues. Together with our partners and the help of many local elected officials and municipal staff, we were successful in stopping these pieces of legislation. REVENUE AND FINANCE Tracking Level - Support Passed Bill# Title Sponsor Status HB 0052 Revise funding for various economic development programs Jim Keane Chapter Number Assigned Staff Summary: This is the administration's economic development funding bill. It reauthorizes several OTO and sunsetting EcoDevo programs at Commerce. As amended, it defunds the Board of Research and Commercialization and repeals the program entirely, and transfers those funds directly to Dept of Agriculture's marketing program, increases funding to Ag's Growth through Agriculture program, and increases Commerce's appropriations for the small business development center, the regional CRDCs, and the MSU manufacturing extension center. As amended, the sunset on the programs is 8 years. The League joined MEDA, Governor's Office, the Department of Commerce, and MACo in support. HB 0411 Revise laws related to AIS expenditures and funding Willis Curdy Chapter Number Assigned Staff Summary: As amended, this bill requires a $10 AIS prevention pass on nonmotorized boats and $30 on motorized boats operating in Montana for funding the state's aquatic invasive species (AIS) prevention program.
