1 FAMILY FARM TAX CREDIT, §425A.3 425A.3 Where credit given. 1. The family farm tax credit fund shall be apportioned each year in the manner provided in this chapter so as to give a credit against the tax on each eligible tract of agricultural land within the several school districts of the state in which the levy for the general school fund exceeds five dollars and forty cents per thousand dollars of assessed value. The amount of the credit on each eligible tract of agricultural land shall be the amount the tax levied for the general school fund exceeds the amount of tax which would be levied on each eligible tract of agricultural land were the levy for the general school fund five dollars and forty cents per thousand dollars of assessed value for the previous year. However, in the case of a deficiency in the family farm tax credit fund to pay the credits in full, the credit on each eligible tract of agricultural land in the state shall be proportionate and applied as provided in this chapter. 2. An eligible tract of agricultural land qualifies for the credit computed under subsection 1 if the tract is owned by an owner as defined in section 425A.2 and a designated person is actively engaged in farming during the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which the auditor computes the amount of the credit under section 425A.5 for which the tract would be eligible. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the “actively engaged in farming” requirement is satisfied if the designated person is in general control of the tract under a federal program pertaining to agricultural land. 3. The county board of supervisors shall determine the eligibility of each tract for which an application is received. 90 Acts, ch 1250, §12; 91 Acts, ch 267, §612, 613 Referred to in §425A.8 Wed Feb 08 03:45:48 2017 Iowa Code 2017, Section 425A.3 (8, 0)
