Provision
§ 696Supplemental assessmentProvision

If an exemption was improperly received, the assessor must issue a supplemental assessment for the property, plus costs and interest.

If the assessor makes a determination under section 695 or the bureau makes a determination pursuant to section 697 that property receiving an exemption under this subchapter was not entitled to an exemption under this subchapter, the assessor shall by means of a supplemental assessment assess the property for which the exemption was improperly received, plus costs and interest. The taxpayer may contest a supplemental assessment under this subchapter either by using the procedures provided in subchapter 8 or by pursuing such other actions or proceedings by which other property tax exemptions under this chapter may be reviewed or adjudicated. The supplemental assessment must be assessed and collected pursuant to section 713. The bureau shall deduct the amount of the portion of the supplemental assessment that pertains to any funds previously reimbursed to the municipality under section 694 from the next reimbursement issued to the municipality. [PL 2017, c. 211, Pt. A, §11 (AMD).]
