The tracts will be conveyed under the 1-d-1 Agricultural Exemption for the 2020 tax year. However, the new owners must apply for their exemption prior to April 30, 2021. Because of the size of the tracts, there will be no rollback tax provided the owners do not change the use of the land. In order to maintain their ag exemption, owners can put up a livestock type fence and have cattle, sheep or goats on their ranch; or, they may apply for a wildlife extension. All tracts in Mountain Ranch are large enough to qualify for a wildlife exemption.
