Summary

HB124 would let counties accept a one‑time application for permanent disability property‑tax exemptions for veterans instead of requiring annual re‑applications; the committee placed the bill on the consent calendar unanimously.

Representative Cofer presented HB124 to instruct counties to accept a one‑time application for a property‑tax disability exemption for veterans with permanent disabilities, instead of requiring repeated annual applications. Cofer said a small number of counties currently require yearly renewal; the bill would align the process with other permanent disability exemptions to reduce administrative burden on veterans.

No public testimony was offered. The committee voted to place HB124 on the consent calendar by unanimous voice vote.

Placing a bill on the consent calendar indicates the committee sees the measure as noncontroversial and likely to move quickly through the floor process.
