amending the date to provide written notice to a municipality of a taxpayer's election to be assessed under the low-income housing tax credit program.
HB 1021 changes the deadline for taxpayers to notify their municipality about electing to be assessed under the low-income housing tax credit program. Currently requiring written notice by October 1, the bill moves this deadline to April 15 of the year before the tax year. This affects taxpayers who own or develop properties eligible for the low-income housing tax credit program and need to have their property appraised under the program. The bill only modifies the timing for submitting this notice, without altering the program's eligibility rules or benefits.

MINOR
No substantive policy changes occurred between these two versions. The differences are entirely technical: the bill was assigned Chapter 207 during the chaptering process, section numbers were updated from generic (1, 2) to chapter-specific (207:1, 207:2), and approval/effective dates were added at the end.
TECHNICAL
Section numbers changed from '1' and '2' to '207:1' and '207:2' to reflect the assigned chapter number (Chapter 207).
Added 'Approved: July 02, 2026' and 'Effective Date: January 01, 2027' at the end of the document, which is standard for the final chaptered version.
Header changed from 'VERSION ADOPTED BY BOTH BODIES' to 'CHAPTER 207 / FINAL VERSION' and various formatting/alignment adjustments throughout.
