Introduced by Rep. Leslie Mortimer (R) on March 23, 2006, to exempt from the Proposal A taxable value “pop-up” homestead property that is purchased by a person age 65 or older. The “pop-up” is where the state equalized value (market value) of newly-sold property becomes the basis for its property tax assessment, rather than the capped “taxable value” of the previous owner, which is lower.
- Referred to the House Tax Policy Committee on March 23, 2006.

I think this is a clear indication that Rep. Mortimer and others believe the whole pop up scheme has major faults. What is clearly a burden on 65+ year olds is also a burden on newlyweds or anyone else. The whole idea that my neighbor can pay 30 or 40 percent more in property tax than me with the same house is absurd.
