relating to the exemption from ad valorem taxation of certain | ||
property used to provide low-income or moderate-income housing. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Section 11.1825, Tax Code, is amended by adding | ||
Subsection (a-1) to read as follows: | ||
(a-1) An organization that leases land under a ground lease | ||
is entitled to an exemption from taxation of the improvements owned | ||
by the organization that the organization constructs or | ||
rehabilitates and uses to provide housing to individuals or | ||
families meeting the income eligibility requirements of this | ||
section. An organization that leases land as described by this | ||
subsection is considered to be the owner of the land for purposes of | ||
the provisions of this section requiring that an organization own | ||
property for the purpose of constructing or rehabilitating a | ||
housing project on the property in order to receive an exemption for | ||
the property. A reference in this section to acquiring property | ||
includes leasing the property as described by this subsection. A | ||
reference in this section to an exemption from taxation or the | ||
appraisal of property means the improvements constructed or | ||
rehabilitated on the property if the property consists of land and | ||
improvements described by this subsection. | ||
SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act applies only | ||
to an ad valorem tax year that begins on or after the effective date | ||
of this Act. | ||
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect January 1, 2024. |
