S.D. Codified Laws § 11-7-73

Current through the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 11-7-73 - Exempt housing project to make payments in lieu of taxes-Annual statement-Percentage of rentals to be paid-Distribution of payments to governmental units

Notwithstanding the provisions of § 11-7-72, any housing project of the commission that has become occupied, either in whole or in part, and is exempt from taxation pursuant to § 11-7-72 shall make payments in lieu of taxes. The commission shall file with the proper director of equalization, on or before May first of each year, a statement of the dwelling unit rentals of that project collected during the preceding calendar year. Unless a greater amount is permitted pursuant to federal legislation and has been agreed upon between the commission and the municipality or the county which created the commission, five percent of the revenue from the dwelling unit rentals shall be charged to the commission as payments in lieu of taxes. The payments in lieu of taxes shall be distributed to all of the appropriate governmental units in the area of operation in such proportions that each governmental unit will receive from the payments the same proportion as it would if property taxes were paid. However, no payments in lieu of taxes shall exceed the amounts which would be payable in property taxes on the project if the project was not exempt from taxation. The term, dwelling unit rental, means the total revenue collected for rentals of residential dwelling units. The term, dwelling unit rental, does not include any revenue from other income, fees, or services that may be received by the commission. The records of each housing project shall be open to inspection by the director of equalization.
