This bill establishes a market value exclusion for licensed in-home child care providers in Minnesota, amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, specifically section 273.13. The new subdivision 36 allows properties classified as 1a or a portion of 2a, used for family day care or group family day care, to receive a 50% exclusion on their market value prior to determining net tax capacity. The bill mandates that by July 1, 2025, the commissioner of human services must provide counties with a list of all licensed family day care providers. Additionally, properties qualifying for this exclusion will not be eligible for other market value exclusions under subdivisions 34 or 35.

The bill also amends section 276.04, subdivision 2, to include the licensed in-home child care provider exclusion in the property tax statements. This addition requires that the property tax statements reflect the current year's tax information alongside the previous year's, including the new exclusion. The effective date for both sections of the bill is set for property taxes payable in 2026.
