Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
The bill as written would result in an annual increase of approximately $3.8 million in local property tax revenues and $15,000 in State revenue beginning with the 2005 fiscal year. However, the formula in the bill is not the formula utilized by the Tax Department prior to Tax Year 1999. If the original managed timberland appraisal formula is utilized, the total tax increase would be $3.3 million.
There would be no additional administrative costs to the State or local governments.
