Bill Summary

Increasing the exemption for residential property in the town of Provincetown

AI Summary

This bill increases the exemption for residential property in the town of Provincetown, Massachusetts. Specifically, it allows the town to exempt up to 35% of the average assessed value of all residential properties in the town, provided the property is the principal residence of the taxpayer or is occupied year-round by a Provincetown resident. The exemption is in addition to any other exemptions allowed under state law, but the taxable valuation of the property cannot be reduced below 10% of its full and fair cash value. The bill also establishes a process for taxpayers to apply for the residential exemption, which will be treated as a timely filing under state property tax law.
