Changes are underway that could affect local funding across Missouri. Property tax cap questions will appear on the April ballots in 97 Missouri counties, giving voters the chance to decide whether limits on property tax growth should be adopted.

Property taxes are a key funding source for essential community services, including public safety, schools, libraries, roads, and supports provided by county developmental disability boards. It is important that voters understand what is being proposed and how local services are funded. Decisions made at the ballot box will shape the future of local programs and supports.

Stay informed. Understand the issues. Vote on April 7th.

Local county SB40 Boards are important because they allow communities to decide what support looks like locally. Every county is different. Some SB40 Boards fund transportation. Some support vocational programs or employment services. Others prioritize case management, in-home supports, therapies, housing supports, or early intervention.

What makes county SB40 funding so powerful is that it’s flexible and community driven. The funding stays local, and decisions are made based on the needs of the people who actually live there. There is no one size fits all approach and that is the point.

SB40 gives communities the ability to build supports that make sense for their families, their workforce, and their future.
