DESCRIPTION



This proposal would make clarifications to the property assessment law. The inflationary growth factor for subclasses would be limited to the actual increase in assessments but no greater than the lesser of five percent or the change in the Consumer Price Index. Required property tax rate rollbacks would be allocated among the subclasses based on their relative assessed valuation. Tax rate worksheets used by the State Auditor's Office would be subject to review by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules.



This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
