"SECTION 12. IC 6-3.5-1.1-2, AS AMENDED BY P.L.135-2001,
SECTION 1, IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE
UPON PASSAGE]: Sec. 2. (a) The county council of any county in
which the county option income tax will not be in effect on July 1 of a
year under an ordinance adopted during a previous calendar year may
impose the county adjusted gross income tax on the adjusted gross
income of county taxpayers of its county effective July 1 of that year.
(b) Except as provided in section 2.5, 2.7,
2.9, or 3.5 of this chapter,
the county adjusted gross income tax may be imposed at a rate of
one-half of one percent (0.5%), three-fourths of one percent (0.75%),
or one percent (1%) on the adjusted gross income of resident county
taxpayers of the county. Any county imposing the county adjusted
gross income tax must impose the tax on the nonresident county
taxpayers at a rate of one-fourth of one percent (0.25%) on their
adjusted gross income. If the county council elects to decrease the
county adjusted gross income tax, the county council may decrease the
county adjusted gross income tax rate in increments of one-tenth of one
percent (0.1%).
(c) To impose the county adjusted gross income tax, the county
council must, after January 1 but before April 1 of a year, adopt an
ordinance. The ordinance must substantially state the following:
"The ________ County Council imposes the county adjusted
gross income tax on the county taxpayers of ________ County.
The county adjusted gross income tax is imposed at a rate of
_____ percent (_____%) on the resident county taxpayers of the
county and one-fourth of one percent (0.25%) on the nonresident
county taxpayers of the county. This tax takes effect July 1 of this
year.".
(d) Any ordinance adopted under this section takes effect July 1 of
the year the ordinance is adopted.
(e) The auditor of a county shall record all votes taken on
ordinances presented for a vote under the authority of this section and
immediately send a certified copy of the results to the department by
certified mail.
(f) If the county adjusted gross income tax had previously been
adopted by a county under IC 6-3.5-1 (before its repeal on March 15,
1983) and that tax was in effect at the time of the enactment of this
chapter, then the county adjusted gross income tax continues in that
county at the rates in effect at the time of enactment until the rates are
modified or the tax is rescinded in the manner prescribed by this
chapter. If a county's adjusted gross income tax is continued under this
subsection, then the tax shall be treated as if it had been imposed under
this chapter and is subject to rescission or reduction as authorized in
this chapter.
