This bill died with 2011-2012 Regular Session. It reached “Passed Assembly” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law requires storage media for computer programs to be valued on the 1972 lien date and thereafter as if there were no computer program on the media except basic operational programs, and otherwise prohibits the valuation of computer programs for the purpose of property taxation. This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation creating a standard for the fair and reasonable valuation of software embedded in business personal property, as provided.
