Introduced in the Senate

Nov. 4, 2010

Introduced by Sen. Jim Barcia (D-31)

To revise a detail of the law that exempts from property tax property owned by a conservation organization “that is held for conservation purposes and open to all residents for educational or recreational use, including, but not limited to, low-impact, nondestructive activities such as hiking, bird watching, cross-country skiing, or snowshoeing.” The bill eliminates the requirement that the organization be a “nonprofit charitable institution”.

Referred to the Committee on Finance
