Local Official Information

2009 circuit breaker credits must be reported pursuant to IC 6-1.1-20.6-11. While the Circuit Breaker Credit Report is for reporting by taxing district, the statute also requires the county auditor to report “the amount that each taxing unit’s distribution of property taxes will be reduced under section 9.5 of this chapter as a result of the granting of the credits.” The DLGF requests that unit information be attached to the Circuit Breaker Credit Report in a format that is convenient for local officials. IC 6-1.1-20.6-9.5 provides that the county auditor shall notify each political subdivision, in which the credit is applied, of the reduction of property tax collections. 

This report should be submitted to the DLGF within thirty (30) days of abstract approval.  If the amount of credit changes after the certification date, the county auditor shall submit an amended certification to the Department of Local Government Finance.
