Citizen Commission approves testimony questions for 2025 tax-preference reviews
Summary
The commission approved the set of testimony questions for the 2025 review cycle, retaining an evidence requirement added last year that requesters include supporting materials or data.
The Citizen Commission on Tax Preferences voted May 7 to approve the set of testimony questions it will send to parties providing input for 2025 tax-preference reviews. The motion passed by roll call with four ayes.
JLARC staff noted the questions are the same as those approved last year. Commissioners discussed question 5, which was added in 2024 and asks that those testifying provide evidence to support answers to the first four questions. Commissioner Ward asked whether “evidence” includes data; staff and commissioners agreed that evidence is a broad term that encompasses data and other supporting materials.
Commissioner James Orr moved to approve the questions and the motion was seconded; the roll-call vote recorded Andy Noffsinger Meadows, Dr. Grant Forsyth, Dr. Sharon Kioko and James Orr voting aye and the motion passed. Staff will publish the approved questions and use them to solicit testimony for the 2025 review cycle.
