10-6-137. Discretionary formula for reduced taxation of new structures and additions--Partially constructed structures.
Any structure classified pursuant to this section, must, following construction, be valued for taxation purposes in the usual manner. The board of county commissioners of the county in which the structure is located, may adopt a formula for assessed value to be used for tax purposes. Except as otherwise provided in §10-6-137.1, the formula may include, for any or all of the five tax years following construction, all, any portion, or none of the assessed value for tax purposes. Any formula adopted must be equally applied to specifically classified properties within a tax increment finance district.
The board of county commissioners of the county in which the structure is located may, if requested by the owner of the structure, fully assess the structure without application of the formula. In waiving the formula for the structure of one owner, the board of county commissioners is not prohibited from applying the formula for subsequent new structures. The assessed value during any of the five years may not be less than the assessed value of the property in the year preceding the first year of the tax years following construction.
Any structure that is partially constructed on the assessment date may be valued for tax purposes, pursuant to this section, and the value may not be less than the assessed value of the property in the year preceding the beginning of construction. The period that the property is valued for tax purposes under this section may include the years when the property is partially constructed.
Following the five-year period under this section, the property must be assessed at the same percentage as all other property for tax purposes, except as otherwise provided in §10-6-137.1.
Any of the following types of real property may be specifically classified for the purpose of taxation pursuant to this section:
(1)Any new industrial or commercial structure, or any addition, renovation, or reconstruction to an existing structure, located within a designated urban renewal area as defined in §11-8-4, if the new structure, addition, renovation, or reconstruction has a full and true value of thirty thousand dollars or more;
(2)Any new industrial structure, including a power generation facility, or an addition to an existing structure, if the new structure or addition has a full and true value of thirty thousand dollars or more;

(4)Any new commercial structure, or any addition to an existing structure, except a commercial residential structure as described in subdivision (5), if the new structure or addition has a full and true value of thirty thousand dollars or more;

(7)Any new residential structure, or addition to or renovation of an existing structure, located within a redevelopment neighborhood established pursuant to §10-6-141, if the new structure, addition, or renovation has a full and true value of five thousand dollars or more. The structure must be located in an area defined and designated as a redevelopment neighborhood based on conditions provided in §11-7-2 or 11-7-3; or
(8)Any commercial, industrial, or nonresidential agricultural property that increases more than ten thousand dollars in full and true value, as a result of reconstruction or renovation of the structure.
