Committee to continue property tax briefing; chair seeks approach to handle many property tax bills
Summary
House Research previewed a fuller property tax briefing to come; Chair Davids said the committee will decide whether to form a working group or another process to handle a high volume of property tax bills.
Jared Swanson of House Research briefly introduced himself and said the committee would receive a full property tax presentation the following day. Chair Matt Davids and several members then discussed committee procedure for handling a likely large volume of property tax bills during the session.
Davids said he was considering options — a full property tax division, a working group of members to vet proposals, or a different structure — and that leadership consultations with the speaker and majority leader would follow. "If we think we're gonna hear every property tax bill come through this place, we're gonna be having some long nights," he said, urging members to weigh efficiency and member access. Members suggested a bipartisan working group as one possible approach.
Staff told members they will follow up with more detailed property tax materials and asked members for input on procedures for hearings, bill handling and scoring. The committee scheduled a fuller property tax presentation for Jan. 22, 2025.
