*Governor Gordon signs bill to provide funding for expanded property tax refund program*

 

CHEYENNE, Wyo. – Governor Mark Gordon signed five bills today, including a bill that sets the order in which multiple property tax exemptions will be applied to those homeowners who qualify for more than one exemption.

House Bill 279 - Property tax exemptions-order of application [ [link removed] ] also includes $10.5 million to fund the property tax refund program in 2025. Originally included in Governor Gordon’s supplemental budget, funding for the program was a priority of the Governor entering the session and was added to the bill late in the legislative process.

“Over the past two sessions, the Legislature has passed, and the Executive branch has implemented, multiple pieces of legislation that have provided property tax relief to Wyoming residents,” Governor Gordon said. “This bill clarifies how these multiple exemptions will be applied and provides essential funding to the refund program that was expanded by the Legislature in 2024.” 

HB 279 states that exemptions based on a percentage of property value are applied in the order of the smallest percentage to the largest percentage. Exemptions not based on a percentage of property value are applied after those based on a percentage.

The Governor signed the following bills today:

 

*Enrolled Act * *Bill #* *Bill Title*

HEA0064 HB0279 Property tax exemptions-order of application.

SEA0079 SF0038 Performance compensation-investment performance amendment.

SEA0084 SF0070 Investment modernization-state nonpermanent funds.
