Note: A public hearing may not occur in the case of an expedited update.
- Proposal
-
The Proposal CR-102 provides a draft rule and updated information. The purpose is to solicit comments from the public on the draft and to announce the date, time, and place of the public hearing.
A CR-105 is also a rule proposal, similar to a CR-102 proposal, except that the rule is being updated under the expedited rulemaking process. Expedited rulemaking allows for a public comment period but does not involve a public hearing. The Department uses expedited rulemaking to conform a rule to changes made by the legislature to tax statutes.
