2012 House Bill 5646

Senate Roll Call 536: Passed

To allow a local “land bank authority” to exempt parcels from the alternate property tax levied on its property, if the tax break is for “economic development” purposes. This would make the property subject to regular property taxes, which then could be “abated” by the local government under a variety of laws authorizing selective property tax breaks for particular developers and projects.
