  1  4 4, or for purposes of a different schedule adopted by a city
  1  5 or county as part of the city or county urban revitalization
  1  6 plan, when computing the exemption for actual value added by
  1  7 improvements to qualified real estate assessed as residential
  1  8 property, the exemption shall be computed on only that amount
  1  9 of actual value added which does not exceed seventy-five
  1 10 thousand dollars.
  1 11    Sec. 2.  Section 404.3A, Code Supplement 1997, is repealed.
  1 12    Sec. 3.  CONTINUATION OF EXEMPTION.  Exemptions granted
  1 13 pursuant to section 404.3A shall continue until their
  1 14 expiration.
  1 15    Sec. 4.  APPLICABILITY.  This Act applies to urban
  1 16 revitalization areas designated on or after July 1, 1998.
  1 17 This Act also applies to amendments made on or after July 1,
  1 18 1998, to urban revitalization plans for urban revitalization

  1 20                           EXPLANATION
  1 21    This bill provides that, for qualified residential property

  1 23 compute an urban revitalization tax exemption shall be only
  1 24 that portion of the actual value which does not exceed
  1 25 $75,000.  The bill also repeals an exemption schedule which
  1 26 would have allowed all qualified real estate assessed as
  1 27 residential property and located in an urban revitalization
  1 28 area established for residential development purposes to
  1 29 receive, for up to five years, a full exemption from taxation
  1 30 of the first $75,000 of actual value added by improvements.
  1 31 However, current exemptions allowed under this section shall
  1 32 continue until their expiration.
