A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4845 AS INTRODUCED 6-17-03

         The bill would amend the General Property Tax Act to add “wetland” as a real property classification.  Wetland real property would include any parcel of land that is subject to regulation under Part 303 (Wetlands Protection) of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act.  However, the classification would not be applied to a parcel of land unless the entire parcel is subject to regulation under Part 303.
