Relates to creating a tax abatement for geothermal well systems
This bill creates a real property tax break for owners of buildings with geothermal well systems installed between 2027 and 2029. It provides a tax abatement equal to 10% of eligible installation costs, capped at $62,500 per year for the compliance period (four years total), reducing annual property taxes. To qualify, applicants must submit certified proof from architects or engineers that the system meets building codes, and maintain the system without safety hazards during the compliance period. The tax break applies to residential, commercial, and condominium properties, but requires no outstanding property taxes or municipal charges during the eligibility period.
