This joint resolution asks South Dakota voters to amend the state constitution to reset and freeze property tax rates at a flat amount, with those rates only increasing when a property is sold. The amendment changes the current system where property taxes are uniformly calculated based on assessed property values, replacing it instead with a fixed-rate model that stays the same until ownership changes.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
