relating to the appraisal for ad valorem tax purposes of a parcel of | ||
real property that is located in more than one county. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Subchapter B, Chapter 23, Tax Code, is amended by | ||
adding Section 23.27 to read as follows: | ||
Sec. 23.27. SINGLE APPRAISAL FOR PARCEL IN MORE THAN ONE | ||
COUNTY. (a) The owner of a parcel of real property that extends | ||
into two or more counties may choose a single appraisal district | ||
established for one of those counties to appraise the property for | ||
ad valorem tax purposes for each taxing unit that imposes ad valorem | ||
taxes on the property. | ||
(b) A property owner that has chosen to have real property | ||
appraised by a single appraisal district under Subsection (a) may | ||
revoke that choice and by written request filed with each appraisal | ||
district choose to have the property appraised by a single | ||
appraisal district other than the one previously chosen or to have | ||
the property appraised by each appraisal district in which the | ||
property is located. | ||
(c) To make a choice under this section, the property owner | ||
must file a written request with each appraisal district in which | ||
the property is located. A choice made by a property owner under | ||
this section takes effect beginning on the next January 1 that is at | ||
least 90 days after the date on which the choice has been filed with | ||
each appraisal district. | ||
SECTION 2. This Act takes effect January 1, 2024, but only | ||
if the constitutional amendment proposed by the 88th Legislature, | ||
Regular Session, 2023, authorizing the legislature to permit an | ||
owner of a parcel of real property that is located in more than one | ||
county to elect to have the property appraised for ad valorem | ||
taxation by the appraising entity for one of those counties is | ||
approved by the voters. If that amendment is not approved by the | ||
voters, this Act has no effect. |
