Property Managers and their rental property owners continue to experience TPT issues with the Department of Revenue. WeSERV continues to speak directly with DOR to help members find solutions.
In the meantime, while WeSERV, PMCs, rental property owners, the DOR works toward solutions, the only entities tied to TPT who are not participating are the local governments who levy and receive TPT funds. WeSERV is asking local governments to create a staff position dedicated to helping PMCs and other businesses correct TPT problems at DOR.
If you would like to help WeSERV advocate to local government within our jurisdiction to create a staff position dedicated to helping PMCs, rental property owners and business collect and submit TPT, while helping to correct DOR and TPT errors on behalf of taxpayers, please let WeSERV Government Affairs know by emailing us at weservgad@weserv.realtor.
In the meantime, PMCs and their clients can participate in live stream trainings presented by the DOR staff. This is a good opportunity to connect directly to DOR to ask questions and start the process of solving TPT issues for your business or rental property owner.
Each August Arizona REALTORS holds its caucus. The purpose is to seek input from AR members for suggested legislative issues AR should concern itself with in the next legislative session. This is a free event for REALTORS and will be held at the Arizona Biltmore on August 24th.
You must register to attend. You may register at the Arizona REALTORS Caucus registration page.
In preparation for the Caucus, the WeSERV Government Affairs premeeting discussion group and the Government Affairs meeting on August 9th will center on WeSERV member input to AR. What issues do you wish AR to address in the upcoming legislative session?
Our goal for the August 9th meetings is to discuss and create a bullet point list of issues to be presented to AR at the Caucus. Most important, we would like suggestions for solutions to identified issues.
Register to attend the Government Affairs pre-meeting discussion group on Aug 9th from 9:30am to 10:30am and the Government Affairs committee meeting on Aug. 9th from 10:30am to 12 noon. Both meetings will be in person at our Chandler office, Avion Center, and online over zoom.
Don’t forget we have three active task forces at this time. Our Water Issues Task Force, our New build home task force and our STR (short term rental) task force.
If you would like to become a member of one of these task forces, please let Krys or I know.
