AI Summary
This bill allows the town of Portsmouth to create, remove, or change its tax classification plan, which is a system for dividing different types of property (like residential, commercial, or personal property) and applying different tax rates to each class. Currently, towns can adopt such plans after a property revaluation, but this bill specifically grants Portsmouth the authority to do so for any tax year starting on or after December 31, 2026, and to make future adjustments to this plan. The bill also states that it will become law as soon as it is passed.
