  1  1    Section 1.  Section 427.1, subsection 1, Code 2001, is
  1  2 amended to read as follows:
  1  3    1.  FEDERAL AND STATE PROPERTY.  The property of the United
  1  4 States and this state, including state university, university
  1  5 of science and technology, and school lands.  The exemption
  1  6 herein provided shall not include any real property subject to
  1  7 taxation under any federal statute applicable thereto, but
  1  8 such exemption shall extend to and include all machinery and
  1  9 equipment owned exclusively by the United States or any
  1 10 corporate agency or instrumentality thereof without regard to
  1 11 the manner of the affixation of such machinery and equipment
  1 12 to the land or building upon or in which such property is
  1 13 located, until such time as the Congress of the United States
  1 14 shall expressly authorize the taxation of such machinery and
  1 15 equipment.  This exemption does not apply to property owned by
  1 16 the state or its agencies when that property is rented or
  1 17 leased to a person for use for a commercial purpose.  However,
  1 18 the exemption shall extend to property owned by the state fair
  1 19 board or by a state agency as part of a state park, preserve,
  1 20 or recreation area.  Property to which the exemption does not
  1 21 apply is subject to property tax unless otherwise exempt under
  1 22 another provision of law.
  1 23    Sec. 2.  APPLICABILITY.  This Act applies to assessment
  1 24 years beginning after the effective date of this Act.  
  1 25                           EXPLANATION
  1 26    Current law exempts state-owned property from property tax.
  1 27 This bill provides that this exemption does not apply to state
  1 28 property which is rented or leased for a commercial purpose,
  1 29 except if the rented or leased property is owned by the state
  1 30 fair board or is part of a state park, preserve, or
  1 31 recreational area.
  1 32    The bill applies to assessment years beginning after the
  1 33 effective date of the bill.
