Bill Summary

Relative to payments in lieu of taxes for state-owned land. Revenue.

AI Summary

This bill aims to reform the payments in lieu of taxes (PILOT) for state-owned land. It removes the term "reimbursement percentage" from the relevant law and modifies Section 17 of Chapter 58 of the General Laws to change how the treasurer calculates the amount to be reimbursed to towns where the Commonwealth owns land. The new calculation will be based on the average of the annual tax rates for the three preceding years, and the amount will never be less than what was paid in the prior year, except for the value of land removed from the program.
