Texas creates school district property tax incentive program
On June 9, 2023, Texas House Bill 5 (“H.B. 5”) was signed into law. The legislation―entitled the Texas Jobs, Energy, Technology, and Innovation Act― introduced an incentive program for certain large-scale economic development projects in qualified industries. Applicants who propose the construction of an eligible project in a school district (“incentive program”) can apply for a 10-year abatement of property taxes in that school district, which generally reduces the taxable value of property to 50% of market value for that tax year. If the property is located in a qualified opportunity zone, the taxable value is further reduced to 25% of the market value of the property for the tax year. Under the incentive program, the taxable value is completely waived (reduced to zero) during the construction period.
This Multistate Tax Alert summarizes some of the provisions of H.B. 5.
