Information from ‘Understanding the New Property Tax Laws’ presentation’

On Thursday, August 28th, at Sondreson Hall, State Representative Debo Powers gave a presentation on the effects of the recent revisions to Montana’s property tax laws. Debo concentrated on the residential aspects of the legislation, a considerable task in itself.

The full Montana Department of Revenue PowerPoint slide deck, including the more tightly focused material that Debo discussed, can be downloaded as a PDF here. (Debo only used the slides pertaining to residential property owners—slides 2, 4, 5, 6, 9, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22.)

Additional information can be found at Montana’s “2026 Tax Information for Montana Property Owners” page.
