Digest
SB 1237 proposes an amendment to the Texas Tax Code to expand the ad valorem tax exemption for charitable organizations providing housing and related services to elderly individuals aged 62 and older. The bill allows these organizations to qualify for the exemption if they provide housing and services either without regard to a resident's ability to pay or if they provide at least four percent of their net resident revenue in charitable housing and services. It also defines "charitable housing and services" to include various social, health, and educational services offered to financially needy seniors.
