SF 2032 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to tax and special assessment collections for buildings or improvements erected on land owned by another person.

This bill (SF 2032) changes how counties collect special assessments for residential buildings or improvements on land leased from another owner. It allows counties to collect unpaid special assessments (like those for street improvements) through tax collection processes for qualifying properties - specifically, residential buildings or improvements valued at $20,000 or more. County treasurers must now send written notice to the landowner before starting tax collection for these properties. It directly affects landlords leasing land to builders and county tax collectors handling residential property assessments.
