Six South Dakota Counties to Roll Out Property Tax Cuts in 2027: 0.5% County Tax Fully Offsets Owner-Occupied Home Tax Bills
The South Dakota Department of Revenue announced in Pierre on November 9 that six counties — Custer, Lawrence, Lincoln, Meade, Pennington and Fall River — will implement Governor John Rhoden's property tax cut, Senate Bill 96, beginning January 1, 2027, using new county revenue to directly offset property taxes on owner-occupied homes.
Under the plan, the six counties will levy a 0.5 percent County Gross Receipts Tax, with all revenue deposited into each county's property tax reduction fund and applied directly against eligible owner-occupied property tax bills. Counties statewide may choose to begin on January 1 or July 1 of any year.
The department said it will update its official property tax relief guide after January 1, 2027, with county-by-county details for homeowners. (Source: South Dakota Department of Revenue)
