Relative to clarifying tax exemptions for properties used by...

HB147 is a bill aiming to clarify tax exemptions for properties used by religious, educational, and charitable organizations. This means that if a church, school, or charity owns a property, they might pay less in property taxes. The bill was introduced on January 6, 2025, and has been referred to the appropriate committee.

This bill would primarily affect organizations such as churches, schools, and charities by potentially lowering their property tax bills. If passed, these organizations might see some financial relief, which could help them better serve their communities.

As of January 6, 2025, the bill was introduced and referred to the Municipal and County Government committee. It has since been reported with a majority recommendation to pass, but a motion to lay it on the table was adopted on March 26, 2025. This means the bill is currently not moving forward.
