Plain-language change summary

The amended version of Bill H 3410 expands property tax exemptions to include two private passenger vehicles owned or leased by permanently and totally disabled former law enforcement officers, emergency medical technicians, or firefighters. Previously, the exemption was specifically for disabled veterans and their spouses. This change is significant because it recognizes the sacrifices made by these first responders and provides them with financial relief, similar to what is already afforded to disabled veterans. This move is intended to support those who have dedicated their lives to serving the community and may face challenges due to their disabilities.

  Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
  SECTION 1.  Section 12-37-220(B)(3) of the S.C.
Code is amended to read:
      (3)(a) two private passenger vehicles owned or leased by any disabled veteran, or the spouse of the disabled veteran if the spouse resides with the veteran and the vehicle is registered at that same address, designated by the veteran for which special license tags have been issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles under the provisions of Sections 56-3-1110 to 56-3-1130 or, in lieu of the license, if the veteran has a certificate signed by the county service officer or the Veterans Administration of the total and permanent disability which must be filed with the Department of Motor Vehicles.
The exemption extends to the surviving spouse of the person on one private passenger vehicle owned or leased by the spouse for their lifetime or until the remarriage of the surviving spouse.
If a trustee holds legal title to a vehicle and the beneficiary is a person who qualifies otherwise for the exemption provided and the beneficiary uses the vehicle, then the vehicle is exempt from property taxation in the same amount and manner;
       (b) two private passenger vehicles owned or leased by any permanently and totally disabled former law enforcement officer, former emergency medical technician, or former firefighter, as defined in subsection (B)(1)(e).
The exemption extends to the surviving spouse of the person on one private passenger vehicle owned or leased by the spouse for their lifetime or until the remarriage of the surviving spouse;
  SECTION 2.  This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor and first applies to property tax years beginning after 2024.
