• Tax Incentive Program – Power of Attorney for Real Property Tax Exemption Application

  • General Instructions

    This form is used by a real property owner to appoint an official or employee of a political subdivision as the property owner’s agent for purposes of filing the DTE form 24, Tax Incentive Program Application for Real Property Tax Exemption and Remission, to request an exemption under Ohio Revised Code section 725.02, 1728.10, 5709.40, 5709.41, 5709.73 or 5709.78. This form (DTE 24P) should be filed with DTE form 24. Caveat: If the exemption for which the power of attorney is given involves service payments in lieu of taxes, those payments will remain in effect for the term of the exemption, even if the property is used for another exempt purpose after the tax incentive exemption is granted, unless the political subdivision consents in writing to the subsequent exemption. These service payments are also binding on future owners if the political subdivision or the property owner files a notice with the county recorder after the tax commissioner approves the application, unless the political subdivision consents in writing to the subsequent exemption. Failure to file such notice relieves only future owners from the obligation to make service payments if the property becomes exempt under any other provision of the Revised Code.

    Use Part A if the property owner is an individual or an individual general partner of a partnership that owns the property. Use Part B if the property owner is a corporation or if the general partner of the partnership that owns the property is a corporation. Fill in the name of the property owner as grantor of the power of attorney, the name of the official or employee of the political subdivision that is appointed attorney in fact, and the parcel numbers of the property subject to the power of attorney. The property owner or representative must sign the power of attorney in the presence of a notary public.
