AI Summary

This bill establishes an additional real property tax exemption for the primary residence of veterans who have a one hundred percent service-connected disability, meaning their disability is rated as total and permanent by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. This exemption is in addition to any other exemptions veterans may already receive and applies to real property taxes, special district charges, assessments, and special ad valorem levies. The bill clarifies that the taxable assessed value of a qualifying veteran's property cannot be reduced below zero and does not affect any existing exemptions. The effective date for this exemption is tied to assessment rolls based on taxable status dates occurring on or after October 1, 2026, and the bill takes effect immediately.
