PERMANENT RULES

DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE


[ Filed April 15, 2010, 11:20 a.m. , effective May 16, 2010 ]


     Effective Date of Rule: Thirty-one days after filing.

     Purpose: The purpose of WAC 458-30-262 is to provide county assessors with the rate of interest and property tax component used in valuing farm and agricultural land classified under chapter 84.34 RCW (the open space program).

     This rule was recently amended to provide the information for assessment year 2010 (WSR 10-02-025). This amendment did not, however, correctly identify 2010 as the assessment year to which the values apply. The department is amending the rule to correct this oversight. There is no change to the rate of interest and property tax component values.
