Society for Science Real Property Tax Exemption Amendment Act of 2025

This bill grants a permanent real property tax exemption for three specific properties owned or being sold to Society for Science, Inc. The exemption applies to properties at 1719 N St. NW (Lot 0062, Square 0158), 1723 N St. NW (Lot 0802, Square 0158), and 800 8th St. NW (Lot 0031, Square 0404), covering both the land and any improvements. The exemption removes the requirement for these properties to pay real property taxes under Chapter 8 of the District of Columbia tax code, provided Society for Science continues to own and use them. This exemption is in addition to any other tax benefits the organization may receive.
