West Virginia HCR21 requests a study on property tax relief for primary residences when large investments increase county tax bases.

West Virginia HCR21 asks the Joint Committee on Government and Finance to study the feasibility of providing property tax relief to primary residence homeowners when large scale investments significantly increase a county’s property tax base. The study will identify thresholds for significant tax base growth, evaluate relief models, develop revenue allocation formulas, and analyze constitutional requirements. It will also consider safeguards for essential services, transparency mechanisms, and review similar policies in other states.
