Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
The stated purpose of this resolution is to provide a one hundred percent homestead exemption to veterans who have a service-connected total disability.
The loss of revenue to the State and local governments cannot be readily determined. In most counties, decreased tax revenue due to an increase in the Homestead Exemption would likely be at least partially offset by higher tax rates and tax burdens on other types of property, including both real property taxes and personal property taxes on vehicles, business inventory, machinery and equipment.
Additional administrative costs associated with this proposal would be minimal.
