This bill expands eligibility for South Dakota's property tax relief program for disabled veterans by allowing veterans rated at least 70% disabled (in addition to those rated permanently and totally disabled) to exempt $150,000 of their home's value from property taxes. The bill also gives veterans who miss application deadlines a chance to petition county commissioners to recalculate their taxes and receive any refunds owed, and clarifies that veterans keep their exemption even if the property's legal description changes as long as they still live there.
