The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
This bill seeks to clarify the authority of an appraisal office to approve and implement a plan for the reappraisal of property in an appraisal district on a less than annual basis. The bill amends Section 23.01(a) of the Tax Code to ensure that all taxable property is appraised at its market value as of January 1 of the tax year unless otherwise stipulated by the chapter. The intention is to provide flexibility in the reappraisal schedule, potentially reducing the frequency of appraisals and allowing the appraisal office to deviate from the standard annual assessment. This act is set to take effect on Sept. 1, 2025.
