• S.B. 238 Property Tax Adjustments · House floor debate (day 44) · Mar 5, 2026

  Asks whether the bill clarifies how counties notify other taxing entities of truth in taxation hearings, after three cities had trouble certifying their rates last year.

  Read what they said

  My mic. Okay. Um, so, um, I had, um, three cities that got tripped up last year that were not able to certify their rate because of our changes and because of the process through the tax commission. So I appreciate the good sponsor in the Senate working through that. So I'm gonna ask you the, the three, um, reasons my cities got tripped up and if you can point to maybe we're in the bill that hopefully this won't happen again.

  Asks how the bill clarifies virtual participation requirements for truth in taxation hearings.

  Read what they said

  Okay. And then my second question is, the other thing that tripped some people up is, is how exactly it said we had to have virtual participation.

Um, has, how has that been clarified?

  Asks whether the bill addresses a case where a truth in taxation hearing was held as a standalone meeting on the same day as other business.

  Read what they said

  Thank you. And then my last question is, um, one of my communities, um, had noticed a truth in taxation meeting as a standalone meeting on a day on, you know, the day they were assigned, um, and then had a subsequent meeting later in the day to do business. And since they had, even though they were separate meetings, um, but they were the same day, uh, they ran into some issues with that. So, does Bill provide any clarity on that piece?

  Read what they said

  Thank you. I appreciate, um, the sponsor responding to some of my questions and I I appreciate the sponsor in the, in the Senate listening to some of the concerns when, when we have a process that becomes too complicated, while it should, there should be a high bar to go through truth in taxation. If, if it becomes an impossible bar or an unclear bar, that's actually when we hurt our taxpayer. So I appreciate the bill. I I think we got to a lot better spot and provided some clarity. So, um, I am, I am, I'm gonna vote in support and I appreciate the work that's been done to make sure that the process actually works. So …
