Description

Land preservation tax credits; changes to procedures. Requires the use of a licensed transfer agent to transfer a land preservation tax credit to a taxpayer who is not an individual. Transfer agents would be licensed by the Department of Taxation. The bill provides licensing requirements for transfer agents. The bill allows the Tax Commissioner to revoke or suspend the license of, or impose a monetary penalty upon, any transfer agent who repeatedly transfers land preservation tax credits that are subsequently disallowed in whole or in part by the Department.

The bill also allows the Tax Commissioner to require a second appraisal from a different appraiser to substantiate the fair market value of any donation of land. If the fair market value of the donation indicated by the second appraisal is less than 85 percent of the fair market value indicated by the first appraisal submitted by the donor, the Department may issue tax credits in accordance with the second appraisal.
