RESOLUTION MC 23-17
TO ESTABLISH A STATE-OPERATED PROPERTY TAX SOFTWARE
WHEREAS, the State of South Dakota has 66 counties, each of which is responsible for collecting and apportioning property taxes; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to South Dakota Codified Law 10-21-1, the State of South Dakota mandates that the county treasurer collect all property taxes; and
WHEREAS, each county must figure out how to calculate taxes, distribute tax notices, collect taxes, and apportion taxes back to each taxing district; and
WHEREAS, the complexity of the process necessitates counties purchasing software solutions or developing internal software solutions at their own expense to perform these duties; and
WHEREAS, as a result there are 66 different approaches being used in South Dakota to collect and apportion property taxes; and
WHEREAS, precedent for the State of South Dakota to collect and apportion property taxes has been established through the centrally assessed tax process; and,
WHEREAS, a state-operated property tax software system would improve efficiency in the property tax collection and apportionment process; and
WHEREAS, a state-operated property tax software system would benefit from the cyber security infrastructure the State currently has in place; and
WHEREAS, when key personnel at the county level turnover, the State would be able to serve as the subject matter expert and assist in educating county staff; and
WHEREAS, a state-operated property tax software system would reduce cost for counties;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, the Minnehaha County Board of Commissioners requests that the South Dakota Association of County Commissioners pursue legislation to develop a standard state-operated property tax software system to be hosted by the State and provided to counties to create a uniform, efficient process for the collection and distribution of property taxes in South Dakota.
