More detail
An owner may re-apply for the property tax exemption within 30 days after receiving a new fiscal year's tax bill. It covers an owner of real property that was exempt from taxation. This applies only if the exemption had to be renewed and was not renewed. Officials must determine eligibility as if the renewal application had been submitted on time. The 30-day period starts when the owner receives a property tax bill for a new fiscal year. The bill says the act would take effect immediately if enacted.
