Property tax: senior citizens; property tax exemption for certain senior citizens; provide for. Amends 1893 PA 206 (MCL 211.1. - 211.155) by adding sec. 7yy. TIE BAR WITH: HB 4372'25
House Bill 4379 proposes to amend the general property tax act to exempt principal residences owned and occupied by senior citizens from general property taxes. This exemption would apply to taxes levied after December 31, 2025. Instead of the general property tax, these properties would be subject to a specific tax under a separate "senior citizens principal residence specific tax act." The bill defines "principal residence" and "senior citizen" as those terms are established in that related specific tax act, and its enactment is dependent on House Bill 4372 also becoming law.
