H 3012 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to fines on certain commercial and revenue property

This bill (HD 2060) adds specific penalties for property owners who fail to submit required valuation information to their local assessors within 60 days. Residential property owners (single-family homes) face a $50 penalty, while other residential, commercial, or industrial property owners face a $250 penalty for non-compliance, but only if the assessors previously notified them about the penalty. The penalties apply to the next tax year and are triggered solely by failure to submit information, not by the property's valuation itself. This directly affects owners of residential, commercial, and industrial properties who do not provide the requested documentation.
