To cut property taxes imposed on a cottage or second home that an owner has been barred from visiting by due to travel restrictions issued by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in Executive Order No. 2020-42. Specifically, the bill would repeal property tax liability for these properties for as long as the travel ban remains in effect. The bill states as the “intent of the legislature” that the state would reimburse local governments for the foregone tax collections.
Referred to the Committee on Local Government and Municipal Finance
