California Proposition 160 (1992)

From Ballotpedia

California Proposition 160 was on the November 3, 1992 ballot in California as a legislatively-referred constitutional amendment, where it was approved.

Proposition 160 permitted the Legislature to expand the state's disabled veterans' property tax exemption to include the homes of unmarried surviving spouses of persons who died while on active military duty as a result of a service-related injury or disease.

• Yes: 5,288,765 (51.59%)
• No: 4,692,732 (48.41%)

Proposition 160 amended Subsection (a) of Section 4 of Article XIII of the California Constitution.

Fiscal estimate

The fiscal estimate provided by the California Legislative Analyst's Office said:

• The measure would have no direct fiscal impact on state and local governments.

• If the Legislature establishes a new exemption that is similar to the one now provided totally disabled veterans, the measure would reduce local property tax revenues by potentially millions of dollars annually.

Path to ballot

The California State Legislature voted to put Proposition 160 on the ballot in Assembly Constitutional Amendment 40 (Statutes of 1992, Resolution Chapter 49).
