A bill for an act placing assessment limitations for property tax purposes on commercial child care facilities, and including effective date, applicability, and retroactive applicability provisions.
This bill establishes a new property tax assessment limitation specifically for commercial properties primarily used as licensed child care facilities. It allows the portion of a commercial property dedicated to child care to be assessed for tax purposes at the same rate as residential property, rather than the standard commercial rate. To qualify, facility owners must apply to their local assessor by July 1st of the assessment year, providing proof of their child care license and property details. This assessment limitation, effective for valuations beginning January 1, 2025, is also factored into state appropriations that help compensate local governments for certain assessment limitations.
