AI Summary
This joint resolution directs the Oklahoma Secretary of State to present a proposed amendment to the state Constitution to voters for their approval or rejection. The amendment would allow for property tax exemptions on a person's primary residence, including the land and any structures on it, if it is damaged or destroyed by severe weather events like high winds, hail, or tornadoes. The exemption would be for 100% of the property's assessed value during the tax year the damage occurs, or the following year if the damage happens after June. The resolution defines "damaged or destroyed" as being uninhabitable, meaning the home cannot be safely or reasonably lived in. It also specifies the ballot title that will be used when voters consider this proposed change.
