Memorandum
The stated purpose of this bill is to require property value assessment adjustments when ten percent or more of sales of real property in a county are foreclosure sales.
West Virginia Constitution Article X, Section 1 requires that taxation is to be equal and uniform and that it is to be taxed in proportion to its value. The bill does not appear to satisfy those requirements.
