HB 122 Texas House · 89th Legislature, 1st Called Session (2025)

Relating to the exemption from ad valorem taxation of property owned by certain nonprofit corporations, located in a populous county, and used to promote agriculture, support youth, and provide educational support in the community.

HB 122 exempts property owned by qualifying nonprofit corporations from property taxes in Texas counties with 3.3 million or more residents. The exemption applies specifically to properties used for promoting agriculture, supporting youth programs, and providing community educational support. To qualify, nonprofits must be organized exclusively for charitable, educational, or scientific purposes under Texas law. This policy change directly affects eligible nonprofits in large counties (like Harris County) by reducing their property tax burden, but excludes for-profit leases of such properties.
