15-10-107. Tax exemption for public property; exception.

The property of a municipality or county acquired or held pursuant to this chapter is public property used for essential public, governmental purposes and is exempt from all taxes and special assessments of any public body. This tax exemption does not apply to any portion of a project used for a profitmaking enterprise, but in taxing those portions appropriate allowance shall be made for any expenditure by a municipality or county for utilities or other public services which it provides to the property. In lieu of taxes on property exempt under this section, a municipality or county may agree to make such payments to any public body as it finds consistent with the maintenance of the low-rent character of housing projects and the achievement of the purpose of this chapter.
