PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 368.11, subsection 13, unnumbered
  1  2 paragraph 1, Code 2001, is amended to read as follows:
  1  3    In the discretion of a city council, a provision for a
  1  4 transition for the imposition of city taxes against property
  1  5 within an annexation area.  The provision shall not allow a
  1  6 greater exemption from taxation than the tax exemption formula
  1  7 schedule provided under section 427B.3, subsections 1 through
  1  8 5 404.3, subsection 2, and shall be applied in the levy and
  1  9 collection of taxes.  The provision may also allow for the
  1 10 partial provision of city services during the time in which
  1 11 the exemption from taxation is in effect.  
  1 12                           EXPLANATION
  1 13    Current law allows a city that annexes territory,
  1 14 voluntarily or involuntarily, to provide a transition for
  1 15 imposition of city property taxes in the annexed territory.
  1 16 In providing for the transition, the law prohibits a city from
  1 17 giving a taxpayer a greater exemption from property taxes than
  1 18 is currently allowed by the five-year exemption schedule under
  1 19 the program that provides a property tax exemption for new
  1 20 construction of industrial property and cattle facilities.
  1 21 The exemption schedule under current law is as follows:
  1 22    For the first year, 75 percent.
  1 23    For the second year, 60 percent.
  1 24    For the third year, 45 percent.
  1 25    For the fourth year, 30 percent.
  1 26    For the fifth year, 15 percent.
  1 27    This bill prohibits a city from giving a taxpayer a greater
  1 28 exemption from property taxes than is currently allowed by the
  1 29 10-year exemption schedule for certain property in an urban
  1 30 revitalization area.  The exemption schedule proposed by this
  1 31 bill is as follows:
  1 32    For the first year, 80 percent.
  1 33    For the second year, 70 percent.
  1 34    For the third year, 60 percent.
  1 35    For the fourth year, 50 percent.
  2  1    For the fifth year, 40 percent.
  2  2    For the sixth year, 40 percent.
  2  3    For the seventh year, 30 percent.
  2  4    For the eighth year, 30 percent.
  2  5    For the ninth year, 20 percent.
  2  6    For the tenth year, 20 percent.
