Bill overview
This bill proposes to eliminate property taxes on farm structures for farmers in West Virginia who derive at least 40% of their income from their farm. Specifically, it amends state law to create an exemption for real property used for farming, provided the owner-farmer lives on the property and meets the income requirement. The bill also includes provisions related to a fee on nonprofit youth organizations that utilize property exempt under this provision, with funds allocated to tourism promotion and county sheriffs. These funds are intended to support STEAM programs and local economic development.
