Section 39-3.5-106 - State treasurer to pay county treasurer an amount equivalent to deferred taxes
(1) Pursuant to section 39-3.5-105.5, the state treasurer shall loan the amount certified as deferred in the certificate of deferral to a taxpayer deferring property taxes under this article. By April 30, 2003, and by each April 30 thereafter, the state treasurer shall pay the amount of each taxpayer's loan to the county treasurer in which the taxpayer's homestead property is located. The total amount paid by the state treasurer shall be distributed by the county treasurer in the same manner the tax would have been if regularly paid.
(2) The state treasurer shall maintain an account for each tax-deferred property and shall accrue interest, beginning May 1 of the calendar year in which the deferral was claimed, on the amount certified as deferred in the certificate of deferral. The state treasurer shall insure that each account for tax-deferred property complies with this article.
(3) If a taxpayer defers all or part of the property taxes due for a property tax year and the county treasurer receives a payment from, or on behalf of, the taxpayer so that the total received from the state treasurer and the payer is greater than the taxpayer's property taxes due, then the county treasurer shall refund the excess to the payer of the taxes.
