Short description: 
PROP TAX HOMESTEAD IMPROVEMENT                                             

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Property Tax Code to increase  the  maximum  homestead      
   improvement exemption to $45,000 beginning January 1, 1998. Amends the      
   State   Mandates   Act   to   exempt  this  amendatory  Act  from  the      
   reimbursement  requirements  of  the  State  Mandates  Act.  Effective      
   immediately.                                                                
          FISCAL NOTE (Dept. of Revenue)                                       
          SB 515 does not have a fiscal impact on this Dept.                   
          STATE MANDATES FISCAL NOTE (DCCA)                                    
          SB 515 creates a "tax exemption mandate". No reimbursement is        
          required due to a statutory provision exempting the exemption        
          and future changes to it from the reimbursement provisions of        
          the State Mandates Act.

   Makes provisions severable.
