AI Summary

  • Amends the Property Tax Code to require property tax bills include information notifying taxpayers of each exemption available to their specific category and the application deadlines for those exemptions.

  • Exemption information must meet one of two formatting standards: (1) displayed on the front of the first page in font larger than principal text (minimum 12-point), in a distinct format with contrasting type style, or (2) included as separate municipal informational material in the bill envelope.

  • Information included in the envelope option must cover tax deferral programs, assistance for taxpayers with affordability difficulties, assessment calculation methods, and appeal options for incorrect assessments.

  • Maintains existing requirements for tax bills to itemize tax rates by district, show homestead exemptions, equalization factors, fair cash value determinations, and year-over-year tax differences.

  • Creates a mandatory statutory duty for counties to provide these disclosures; failure to mail bills does not affect tax validity or taxpayer liability.
