AN ACT RELATING TO TAXATION -- PROPERTY EXEMPT
HB 8022 exempts the real and tangible personal property of Higher Ground International, located at 7 Ninigret Avenue in Providence, from property taxation. The bill amends Rhode Island's property tax exemption law (Section 44-3-3) to add this specific organization to the list of exempt entities. This is a targeted exemption for one organization's property at a single address, not a broad policy change.
