The proposed bill seeks to amend the Constitution of Alabama of 2022 to allow qualified taxpayers aged 65 and older in Henry County to claim a senior property tax assessment on their real property. This assessment is applicable to single-family owner-occupied residential properties that have been the principal residence of the taxpayer for at least 10 years prior to claiming the assessment. The amendment stipulates that the assessed value of the property will be frozen at the value from the year before the assessment is claimed, and it outlines specific conditions under which the assessment can be maintained, such as continued use of the property as the principal residence and eligibility for homestead exemptions.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions for the assessment to be claimed starting October 1, 2027, and requires that claims be submitted in writing to the Henry County Revenue Commissioner between October 1 and December 31. The amendment will be presented to voters for approval, and upon ratification, it will be incorporated into the Constitution of Alabama of 2022. The bill also allows for nonsubstantive revisions to ensure consistency and clarity in the legal language.
