A farmer in Wayne County, Ohio enrolled 500 acres in the CAUV program five years ago. This year, he decides to convert 100 acres from cropland to a residential subdivision. What happens regarding property taxes on the converted acreage?

Correct Answer

D) The farmer must pay a CAUV recoupment charge on the converted acreage

Under ORC §5713.34, when CAUV-enrolled land is converted to a non-agricultural use, the owner must pay a recoupment charge (also called a CAUV recoupment penalty). This charge recaptures the tax savings the owner received during the years the land was enrolled in CAUV, typically for the prior three tax years.

Answer Options
A
Nothing changes until the next sexennial reappraisal
B
The County Auditor waives any penalties for the first conversion
C
The remaining 400 acres also lose CAUV eligibility
D
The farmer must pay a CAUV recoupment charge on the converted acreage
