SPEAKER'S RULING

Mr. Speaker: Representative Dickerson, the Speaker is prepared to rule on your Point of Order which challenges Amendment 465 to Senate Bill No. 5151 as being beyond the Scope and Object of the bill.

The title of Senate Bill No. 5151 is "AN ACT Relating to civil jurisdiction of district courts." The title is somewhat broad. Senate Bill No. 5151 amends RCW 3.66.020.

Senate Bill No. 5151 raises the district court’s jurisdictional amount over civil cases from $25,000 to $35,000.

Amendment 465 amends RCW 13.04.030 and adds a new section to chapter 28A.225 RCW. The amendment gives district courts concurrent original jurisdiction with juvenile courts over all proceedings involving truancy petitions.

Senate Bill No. 5151 deals solely with raising the monetary value of a claim in civil cases in order for a district court to take jurisdiction over the matter. Amendment 465 would give district courts certain jurisdiction over juvenile offenders in cases currently limited to superior court jurisdiction.

The Speaker finds that Amendment 465 is beyond the scope and object of the bill.

Representative Dickerson, your Point of Order is well taken.

The Speaker stated the question before the House to be adoption of the committee amendment by the Committee on Law and Justice. The committee amendment was adopted.

There being no objection, the rules were suspended, the second reading considered the third and the bill was placed on final passage.

SPEAKER'S PRIVILEGE

The Speaker: It is my pleasure to introduce Bruce Briggs, owner of Briggs Nursery in Olympia. In 1912, Orson Briggs began a family business selling fruits and vegetables. Eighty-five years later under the leadership of his son, Bruce, and Bruce's son Gary, Briggs Nursery has grown to be the largest wholesale nursery in Western Washington. It is renowned worldwide for its research and development of new hybrids of plants, especially rhododendrons, Washington's state flower. Rhododendrons provided to each of the members by the Arbor Day Council are new hybrids from Germany, called Barnstead. Briggs Nursery is the exclusive grower in the United States.

Mr. Briggs, thank you for your long standing leadership in the state's agricultural industry and for the flowers.

There being no objection, the House reverted to the sixth order of business.

There being no objection, the committee amendment by the Committee on Finance was before the House for purpose of amendments. (For committee amendments, see Journal, 82^nd Day, April 4, 1997.)

Representative Dunshee moved the adoption of the following amendment (501) to the committee amendment:

On page 1, beginning on line 7, strike all of section 1 and insert:

"Sec. 1. RCW 84.40.030 and 1994 c 124 s 20 are each amended to read as follows:

All property shall be valued at one hundred percent of its true and fair value in money and assessed on the same basis unless specifically provided otherwise by law.

Taxable leasehold estates shall be valued at such price as they would bring at a fair, voluntary sale for cash without any deductions for any indebtedness owed including rentals to be paid.

The true and fair value of real property for taxation purposes (including property upon which there is a coal or other mine, or stone or other quarry) shall be based upon the following criteria:

(1) Any sales of the property being appraised or similar properties with respect to sales made within the past five years. The appraisal shall be consistent with the comprehensive land use plan, development regulations under chapter 36.70A RCW, zoning, and any other governmental policies or practices in effect at the time of appraisal that affect the use of property, as well as physical and environmental influences. The appraisal shall also take into account: (a) In the use of sales by real estate contract as similar sales, the extent, if any, to which the stated selling price has been increased by reason of the down payment, interest rate, or other financing terms; and (b) the extent to which the sale of a similar property actually represents the general effective market demand for property of such type, in the geographical area in which such property is located. Sales involving deed releases or similar seller-developer financing arrangements shall not be used as sales of similar property.

(2) In addition to sales as defined in subsection (1), consideration may be given to cost, cost less depreciation, reconstruction cost less depreciation, or capitalization of income that would be derived from prudent use of the property. In the case of property of a complex nature, or being used under terms of a franchise from a public agency, or operating as a public utility, or property not having a record of sale within five years and not having a significant number of sales of similar property in the general area, the provisions of this subsection (2) shall be the dominant factors in valuation. When provisions of this subsection (2) are relied upon for establishing values the property owner shall be advised upon request of the factors used in arriving at such value.

(3) In valuing any tract or parcel of real property, the value of the land, exclusive of structures thereon shall be determined; also the value of structures thereon, but the valuation shall not exceed the value of the total property as it exists. In valuing agricultural land, growing crops shall be excluded.

(4) In valuing property, intangible personal property shall not be valued separately.

Sec. 2. RCW 84.40.040 and 1988 c 222 s 15 are each amended to read as follows:

The assessor shall begin the preliminary work for each assessment not later than the first day of December of each year in all counties in the state. The assessor shall also complete the duties of listing and placing valuations on all property by May 31st of each year, ((except that the listing and valuation of construction under RCW 36.21.040 through 36.21.080 shall be completed by August 31st of each year,)) and in the following manner, to wit:

The assessor shall actually determine as nearly as practicable the true and fair value of each tract or lot of land listed for taxation and of each improvement located thereon and shall enter one hundred percent of the value of such land and of the total value of such improvements, together with the total of such one hundred percent valuations, opposite each description of property on the assessment list and tax roll.

The assessor shall make an alphabetical list of the names of all persons in the county liable to assessment of personal property, and require each person to make a correct list and statement of such property according to the standard form prescribed by the department of revenue, which statement and list shall include, if required by the form, the year of acquisition and total original cost of tangible personal property in each category of the prescribed form, and shall be signed and verified under penalty of perjury by the person listing the property: PROVIDED, That the assessor may list and value improvements on publicly owned land in the same manner as real property is listed and valued, including conformance with the revaluation program required under chapter 84.41 RCW. Such list and statement shall be filed on or before the last day of April. The assessor shall on or before the 1st day of January of each year mail a notice to all such persons at their last known address that such statement and list is required, such notice to be accompanied by the form on which the statement or list is to be made: PROVIDED, That the notice mailed by the assessor to each taxpayer each year shall, if practicable, include the statement and list of personal property of the taxpayer for the preceding year. Upon receipt of such statement and list the assessor shall thereupon determine the true and fair value of the property included in such statement and enter one hundred percent of the same on the assessment roll opposite the name of the party assessed; and in making such entry in the assessment list, the assessor shall give the name and post office address of the party listing the property, and if the party resides in a city the assessor shall give the street and number or other brief description of the party's residence or place of business. The assessor may, after giving written notice of the action to the person to be assessed, add to the assessment list any taxable property which should be included in such list.

The assessor shall not require a taxpayer to report intangible personal "property."

Renumber sections consecutively, correct any internal references accordingly, and correct the title.

The regional committee may request, and the state board is authorized to grant, an extension of the sixty days. The duration of the extension shall be set by the state board.

(2) The purpose of the study under subsection (1) is to determine if the existing procedures and requirements for school district organization are adequate and appropriate.

(3) The committee shall submit a report on the study to the legislature by January 12, 1998.
