Providing tax relief for businesses and properties impacted by the Fairfax bridge closure.
SB 6150 provides tax relief for businesses and property owners in a specific area affected by the Fairfax bridge closure. It exempts businesses from certain state taxes (under RCW 82.04) on income received during the closure and waives property taxes (under RCW 84.36) for properties located within three miles of State Route 165 south of the SR 162 junction. The relief applies from January 1, 2026 (property taxes) or July 1, 2026 (business taxes) through the end of the calendar year when a new bridge opens over the Carbon River. Both exemptions expire the year after the new bridge opens, with property tax relief also applying retroactively to 2026 taxes.
