Section 211.14a - Assessment of Property in Alternate Location Due to Covid-19 Pandemic; Definitions.

Sec. 14a.
Notwithstanding any provision of this act to the contrary, including any provision to the contrary in section 13(1) or 14(1), for the 2021, 2022, and 2023 tax years only, personal property, including exempt personal property, that is located on tax day in an alternate location due to the COVID-19 pandemic must not be assessed in that alternate location but instead must be assessed in its ordinary location. As used in this section:
(a) "Alternate location" means the geographic area of a local tax collecting unit in this state that is not the ordinary location of an item of personal property but is the location to which the property was moved due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
(b) "Exempt personal property" means personal property exempt from the collection of taxes under this act, including personal property exempt under sections 7 to 7xx and sections 9 to 9p.
(c) "Ordinary location" means the geographic area of a local tax collecting unit in this state where an item of personal property would have been located for its primary use but for the need to move it to an alternate location due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For purposes of this subdivision, evidence of the ordinary location of personal property includes, but is not limited to, either or both of the following:
(i) A business location of the owner or other person beneficially entitled to the property or in possession of it, as described in section 13(1), where the property usually is deployed under conditions unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
(ii) If the property was located in the geographic area of a local tax collecting unit in this state on December 31, 2019, that location.
(d) "Tax day" means that term as described in section 2(2).
