  • H \WPFILES\ENLARGE2007 DOC City of Houston, Texas, Ordinance No . 2007-

    Houston, TX
    Proposal

    This ordinance from the City of Houston proposes to enlarge the boundaries of Reinvestment Zone Number Three (Main Street/Market Square Zone), which was originally created in 1995 and previously enlarged in 1998 and 2005. The City Council finds that the additional contiguous area meets state requirements for reinvestment zone expansion under Texas Tax Code Chapter 311, as it is located within Houston's corporate limits, contains substandard and deteriorating structures that impair sound growth, and represents less than 10 percent residential property. The expansion complies with state limitations, as the total appraised value of the enlarged zone does not exceed 15 percent of the city's total taxable real property value or that of Harris County and the Houston Independent School District.

  • UNDERSTANDING REASSESSMENT What Is a County-Wide Reassessment?

    Lebanon, PA
    Other

    Lebanon County is conducting a county-wide real estate reassessment for the first time since 1972, after a 2008 court ruling determined that property values had become inconsistent and outdated, causing unfair tax burdens among property owners. The reassessment aims to establish current Fair Market Values and ensure uniform taxation across similar properties, with 21st Century Appraisals, Inc. contracted to conduct the process including property visits, data collection, new valuations, and appeals assistance. The document explains that reassessments are necessary because property values change over time at different rates across neighborhoods and property types, creating inequities in the tax system.

    Austin, TX
    Budget

    HB 247 would establish a property tax exemption for the appraised value of real property in border counties that results from border security infrastructure installation or construction, contingent on passage of HJR 34. The bill defines "border security infrastructure" and "qualified border security infrastructure agreements," prohibits appraisers from considering prices paid by state or federal entities when valuing property purchased for border security, and would reduce school district property tax revenue with minimal anticipated state costs through the school finance formula. No significant fiscal implication to the state is expected overall.
