HB 5267 imposes limits on municipal and county expenditures by capping annual spending growth to a formula based on inflation and population growth. It allows spending above the cap only with voter approval or in the event of a declared disaster. It also mandates that municipalities and counties publish a "Taxpayer’s Budget Summary" online, detailing budget allocations across various expenditure categories.
