South Dakota school districts and other taxing districts must now give property owners at least 21 days' notice before voting on an excess tax levy, using newspaper ads, their websites, and direct mail or electronic notices to all property owners. The notice must include specific details like the maximum tax amount being considered, the estimated tax increase per $100,000 of property value, and how the money will be used. Taxing districts must also hold a public hearing where residents can comment on the proposed excess levy before the vote takes place.
