Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The stated purpose of this bill is to add items to those which are excluded from base assessed value and current assessed value of real and personal property in the tax increment financing article. As written, this bill would add personal trailers, personal boats, personal campers, personal motor homes, personal all terrain vehicles (ATV), and personal motorcycles to those items to be excluded in determining “base assessed value’ for purposes of tax increment financing (TIF) districts. Currently, only personal motor vehicles are excluded. According to our interpretation, passage of this bill would have minimal revenue consequences for both tax increment financing (TIF) districts and local government entities. Additional administrative costs to the State Tax Department, tax increment financing (TIF) districts, and local government entities attributable to passage of this bill would be minimal.
