FYI
Arizona Proposition 130, the Arizona Property Tax Exemptions Amendment, is on the ballot in Arizona as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on November 8, 2022.
A "yes" vote supports allowing the legislature to set certain property tax exemption amounts and qualifications (including property tax exemptions for widows and widowers; those with total and permanent disabilities; disabled veterans; and property used for trade, business, or agriculture) and consolidating the constitution's property tax exemption provisions into a single article.
A "no" vote opposes allowing the legislature to set certain property tax exemption amounts and qualifications and consolidating the constitution's property tax exemption provisions into a single article. sent by a fellow member
