Bill Summary

Relating to the limitation on increases in the appraised value of a residence homestead for ad valorem tax purposes.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Texas Tax Code to limit the annual increase in the appraised value of a residence homestead for property tax purposes. Specifically, it caps the increase at the lesser of 10% of the previous year's appraised value or the inflation rate for the previous year, plus the value of any new improvements. The bill also requires the Texas Comptroller to determine and publish the annual inflation rate to be used for this calculation. The bill will only take effect if a related constitutional amendment is approved by Texas voters in 2023.
