HCS HB 170 -- PROPERTY TAX COLLECTIONS

SPONSOR:  Kennedy (Froelker)

COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass" by the Committee on Ways and
Means by a vote of 13 to 0.

This substitute extends the time period for refund or credit of
an overpayment of property taxes that has been erroneously or
mistakenly levied upon a taxpayer from one to 2 years.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds.

PROPONENTS:  Supporters say that it is unfair to allow taxpayers
to seek only one year of refund on property taxes when an error
is made when other taxes allow 3 years.

Testifying for the bill was Representative Froelker.

OPPONENTS:  There was no opposition voiced to the committee.
