Ad valorem tax; increasing homestead exemption; expanding homestead eligibility. Effective date.

SB 823 increases the homestead tax exemption for manufactured home owners in Oklahoma. It allows residents of manufactured homes to qualify for the exemption even if they don't own the land the home sits on, provided it's their primary residence and meets other requirements. The bill amends existing tax code to expand eligibility under Sections 2812 and 2888, directly affecting manufactured home owners who previously might have been ineligible due to land ownership rules. This change aims to provide greater tax relief to qualifying homeowners.
