SB 6220: Nonprofit housing providers

Ensuring nonprofit housing providers qualify for a property tax exemption when the property is temporarily used for certain community purposes other than affordable housing.

Summary

  • Expands the allowable use of property for the nonprofit low-income homeownership property tax exemption to include the rent or lease of property to an organization for certain community serving purposes.
  • Allows the property tax exemption to continue when the entity transfers ownership of the property to another nonprofit organization, association, or corporation for a use that also qualifies for and is granted a different property tax exemption.
