Fiscal Detail and Notes
	The bill does not change the total amount of Municipal Revenue Sharing distributed but does reduce the amount distributed through the Disproportionate Tax Burden Fund (Rev II) to 11% beginning October 1, 2011.  It also limits this reduced Rev II distribution to municipalities designated as service center communities.  Amounts not distributed through Rev II wil be distributed through the Rev I formula.  The Office of the State Treasurer will require a General Fund appropriation in fiscal year 2011-12 to adapt computations and systems to the changeover.
