Assemblymember Tao (presenter) introduced AB 1416, a targeted fix to existing law that allows local assessors to grant a disaster-related one‑year deferral of property taxes when a homeowner has requested—but not yet received approval for—an installment plan.
The presenter said the fix is intended to prevent homeowners affected by declared disasters from losing their homes because administrative timing prevented an assessor from approving an installment plan before the sale process started. No witnesses appeared in opposition or in support at the table.
The committee approved AB 1416 and moved it to the Assembly floor. The roll call recorded unanimous support: Gibson, Ta, Carrillo, DeMile, Garcia, McKinner and Quirk Silva all voted aye and the measure passed 7‑0.
