§ 44-4.1-4 Completion – Certification. – Upon completion of maintenance or rehabilitation for which the owner of a historic residence, or historic commercial structure, seeks property tax reduction, the owner shall apply to the local tax assessor for relief under this chapter. Upon receiving the application, the city or town tax assessor shall notify the commission. The commission shall inspect the maintenance or rehabilitation of the historic residence, or historic commercial structure, and make a recommendation to the tax assessor who shall certify if it complies with the commission guidelines. The commission may establish a schedule of reasonable fees for the processing of inspection of maintenance and rehabilitation. The property tax reduction commences in the year that the inspection certifies approval of the maintenance or rehabilitation. An owner who receives a property tax reduction pursuant to this chapter shall, upon completion of further maintenance or rehabilitation, which again fulfills the necessary requirements of this chapter, receive a new five (5) year property tax reduction commencing on approval of the most recent application.
