Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
| The stated purpose of this bill is to gradually exempt from property taxes over a period of three years, personal property, including livestock employed exclusively in agriculture and products of agriculture, while owned by the producer.
Assuming that the intent of this bill is to exempt only Class I personal property, passage of this bill would result in revenue losses to local governments as shown below. Losses to Local Governments Year 1 $290,000 Year 2 580,000 Year 3 and each year thereafter 870,000 Revenue losses for the State would be minimal. The Tax Department would incur $20,000 in additional costs in the first year for programming costs. Other additional costs to the Tax Department and local governments cannot be determined. |
