Bill
LD 909
Expands property tax relief for veterans and their survivors, aiding eligible veterans and spouses/dependents; however, LD 909 is dead this session.
Status: Dead in the current session (Pursuant to Joint Rule 310.3 Placed in Legislative Files (DEAD))
Introduced: March 5, 2025
Purpose (as indicated by title)
- The bill is titled to expand property tax relief for veterans and their survivors. The available information does not include the exact text of the provisions, but the intent appears to be broadening or increasing relief available to eligible veterans and/or their surviving spouses/dependents.
What the bill seeks to change (key provisions not provided in the prompt)
- The specific mechanisms (e.g., increased exemption amounts, broader eligibility criteria, changes to survivor benefits, or adjustments tied to costs of living) are not included in the provided materials.
- Typical levers in this policy area might include expanding who qualifies for exemptions, increasing exemption dollar amounts, indexing relief to inflation, or extending relief to additional family members of deceased veterans. These details would require the bill text to confirm.
Who would be affected
- Veterans who are residents of the state and, potentially, their survivors (such as spouses or dependent children) who could qualify for enhanced property tax relief under the bill.
- Local assessors, tax administrators, and municipalities responsible for administering property tax relief programs.
- State or local government entities that administer or fund property tax relief benefits (depending on how the bill would be financed or administered).
