Texas Governor Greg Abbott is heading to Denton to sign this bill into law
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott will be in Denton on Monday to sign a property tax relief bill alongside state and local officials.
Key property tax proposals passed this legislative session include measures increasing the homestead exemption on school property taxes.
Senate Bill 4 increases the exemption by $40,000 to $140,000. Senate Bill 23 raises the exemption to $200,000 for homeowners who are disabled or 65 or older.
The increases would still need to be approved by Texas voters in the November constitutional amendment election. Voters overwhelmingly approved a similar measure increasing the school property tax homestead exemption in a November 2023 election.
Houston Republican Sen. Paul Bettencourt, University Park Republican Rep. Morgan Meyer and Denton County Commissioner Dianne Edmondson will be a few of the officials at the 3 p.m. bill signing.
