Federal PILT was last reauthorized as part of the federal budget resolution in April 2016, which provided $485 million to help support a variety of county activities and programs. While California’s counties received their 2016 Federal PILT authorization in April 2017, future Federal PILT payments – including this years – will need to be secured through the federal budget process. RCRC will continue to advocate for a multi-year reauthorization, and will urge congress to take action to reauthorize the program for 2018 before the end of the federal government’s fiscal year on September 30, 2017.
