Patrick Abrami", "committee": "Ways and Means", "vote_yeas": 18, "vote_nays": 5, "text": "The majority amendment replaces the bill and builds on the work of the Assessing Standards Board (ASB) to develop a methodology for assessing telecommunication poles and conduits. The original bill was merely a framework that the ASB used to develop recommendations. The Legislature allowed, for the first time, municipalities to treat telecommunication poles and conduits as real property and be taxed as such starting in 2011. The only problem was that no guidance was given as to how that should be done. The result was numerous methodologies being employed by different assessors throughout the state with average pole assessments in communities ranging from $107 to $2,100 based upon Department of Revenue Administration (DRA) scrubbed data. These wide-ranging assessment values have led to hundreds of lawsuits each year between municipalities and the various telecommunica tion companies that operate in New Hampshire at great legal expense to all involved. After months of study the full ASB had no choice but to vote that there was a problem and that a solution was required. It became clear that a legislative solution was required to a problem in part created by the Legislature. An ASB subcommittee concluded that telecommunication poles and conduits are a specialty property and should be stated as such in RSA 75:1, which lists exceptions to real property being assessed based upon market value. Such an exception was added in the amendment. In addition, research of this issue showed that other states have grappled with this issue and concluded that a simple formula be adopted: the replacement cost new (RCN) of the telecommunication pole and conduit, less depreciation calculated on a straight-line basis for a period of a certain number of years with a residual value of a certain percent. The amendment also calls for the DRA to publish by July 1 of each year the RCN for all height poles using a national published telecommunications standard cost data guide (which includes installation cost) calculated using a five year rolling average. The ASB subcommittee, the ASB full board, and the sponsors of this bill all agreed upon these principles and that the residual value of a pole be set at 20 percent. Further research found that the Federal Communications Commission uses 25-35 years as depreciation lengths for poles and many other states come in close to a length of 30 years. Based upon this evidence, a depreciation of 30 years was chosen based upon fact. This bill will provide the much needed guidance to municipalities so that pole and conduit assessments are done in a fair and consistent basis across all our communities. This bill will put an end to all the hundreds of lawsuits that are costing the municipalities and the industry thousands of dollars in legal fees and clogging the courts with these cases."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep. Susan Almy", "committee": "Ways and Means", "text": "Six years ago the Legislature ended years of battle by voting to allow the towns to include telephone poles and conduits in local property tax. Existing law clearly states that the poles and conduits should be assessed as real estate, not as personal property. In other states, because they are treated as personal property, equivalent to machinery rather than land and buildings, they are assessed using the normal business depreciation methods, which reduce an asset's useful value to zero or near zero well before the asset is junked. In our statewide utility property tax, each regulated utility business is assessed as a whole by the income and expense method, which calculates all assets according to business accounting; buildings, transfer stations, poles and conduits among them; and assigns property value according to the firm's net profit. When the Legislature decided to let the municipalities tax telephone poles, it left in place in RSA 72:8-a this stricture: \"The valuation of such property shall be based on its value as real estate.\" This bill and both majority and minority amendments comply. Real estate value is based on market value, the useful value left in the building or land. Poles last between 50-75 years on average in our state. The majority amendment would reduce the poles' taxable value to 20% of replacement value within 24 years (a nominal 30-year standard), and leave it at that during the next 25-80 years. But they are fully functional poles. The legislatively-created Assessing Standards Board was asked to review the issue and come up with recommendations, and it voted for a 50-year standard. The minority amendment says 40 years, because half of that board's subcommittee voted for that as a compromise. The board wanted to be kept in the process, writing the JLCAR rules and holding an annual public hearing on the values; the majority amendment removes them, the minority one restores them. The board wanted specific information on the poles provided to each town; the majority amendment makes it optional, the minority one requires it. These differences are significant to the appropriate real estate assessing of poles. The minority amendment creates the same stable playing field that the majority amendment aspires to, and may well better avoid continuing lawsuits. It allows the large number of municipalities that have been assessing in the middle of the pack to retain their property tax revenue under the new system, but it requires the assessing outliers to lower their assessments. And it has a better chance of final passage and durable life."}], "source": "House Calendar 14, 2016", "date": "2016-03-09", "dated": "signed", "cite": "HC 14", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2016%5CNo%2014%20March%2004%202016.pdf"}], "docket_reports": [{"date": "2016-04-28", "dated": "signed", "body": "S", "committee": "Ways and Means", "side": "", "recommendation": "OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT", "vote_yeas": null, "vote_nays": null, "amendment": "2016-1463s", "new_title": false, "cite": "SC 16", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2016%5CNo%2016%20April%2021%202016.pdf"}], "report_actions": [], "veto_message": null, "bill_note": null, "subject": "Taxes - State", "subject_source": "granite record", "house_committee": "Ways and Means", "senate_committee": "Ways and Means", "lsr": "2016-2047", "docket_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=2047&sy=2016&txtsessionyear=2016&txtbillnumber=hb1198&sortoption=billnumber", "documents": [{"label": "Bill text", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/billText.aspx?id=20472016&txtFormat=html&sy=2016&v=current", "kind": "text"}, {"label": "Bill status page", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/Bill_status.aspx?lsr=2047&sy=2016&txtsessionyear=2016&txtbillnumber=hb1198&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "status"}, {"label": "Docket", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=2047&sy=2016&txtsessionyear=2016&txtbillnumber=hb1198&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "docket"}, {"label": "HC 14, page 74", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2016%5CNo%2014%20March%2004%202016.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 14", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2016%5CNo%2014%20April%2007%202016.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 16", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2016%5CNo%2016%20April%2021%202016.pdf", "kind": "record"}], "amendments": [{"num": "2016-0528h", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2016-03-10", "body": "H", "adopted": false, "vote_kind": "RC", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "Proposed by the Majority of the Committee on Ways and Means - r Amend the bill by replacing all after section 1 with the following: 2 New Section; Property Taxation; Valuation of Poles and Conduits Owned by Telephone Utilities.
