Property Tax Assessment Moratorium Bill Passes House as of February 20, 2009 After HR 1 failed to reach the necessary 2/3 majority to pass a constitutional amendment, House leadership went to plan “B.” HB 233 passed the House last week and if approved by the Senate would place a two year moratorium on the increase of property tax assessments between January 2009 and January 2011. If a property is sold within the two year period, the property shall continue to be valued at the most recent value before sale. If additions or improvements are made to the property or if the property is rezoned at the request of the owner it shall be revalued at fair market value. Provisions of this bill will not apply to cities or counties which have previously adopted property tax assessment caps, unless the local ordinance is repealed. HB 233 has been assigned to the Senate Finance Committee and as a Realtor looking our for you, please bookmark this website for any updates.
