Bill > SB1298

This bill makes a minor, nonsubstantive change to existing law, specifically to The Morgan Property Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights, which is a set of rules designed to protect property taxpayers. The bill amends a provision that states nothing in this bill of rights requires the State Board of Equalization (BOE), the state agency responsible for property tax matters, to reassign property tax program responsibilities within its existing organizational structure; the change simply removes the phrase "shall be construed to require" and inserts "requires," making the language more direct without altering the meaning or impact of the law. The Property Taxpayers’ Advocate, appointed by the BOE, is responsible for ensuring that information about property tax assessments is properly distributed and that taxpayer inquiries and problems are resolved promptly, and this bill does not change those core responsibilities.
