Housing (Property Taxes)

HJR 1001 proposes a constitutional amendment to Oklahoma's property tax system. It would eliminate the income requirement for seniors aged 65+ who own and occupy their homes, while maintaining other conditions: the home's property tax value must be $500,000 or less, and the owner must have lived there for 10 years (allowing up to 365 days away in a decade). The amendment keeps existing rules requiring age, occupancy, and the $500,000 value cap, but removes the need to meet income thresholds based on HUD's county median. This change would apply only to homesteads subject to the current tax limitations.
