The joint survey committee on Tax Exemptions reports and recommends:
Senate Bill 29
Relating to: discontinuing the property tax exemption for governmental property that is leased and which the lessee uses as a country club.
This Bill is good public policy if it is amended to delete the underscored material on page 2 and to provide that if a lessee of municipal property uses the property for a country club, the municipality that leased the property is liable to other taxing districts for the amount of taxes those districts would have collected if the property were taxable.

Relating to: narrowing the property tax exemption for educational and other institutions to exclude recreational organizations.
S363
This Bill is good public policy if it is amended so that the property tax exemption does not apply to property owned by an organization that is devoted "primarily" to recreational activities, rather than to properties of an organization devoted "solely" to recreational activities.
