An Act Increasing the Maximum Residential Property Exemption and Providing for Annual Adjustments was received on May 8, 2009. A copy of the application and signatures were sent to the Department of Law and the Division of Elections on May 8, 2009. The Division of Elections determined that there were a sufficient number of sponsor signatures on May 20, 2009. The application was certified by the Lt. Governor on May 27, 2009. Petition booklets were issued to the initiative committee on June 25, 2009. The petition booklets were submitted to the Division of Elections for processing on April 5, 2010. The one year filing deadline for this petition is June 25, 2010. Lieutenant Governor Campbell determined that the petition for this initiative was improperly filed on June 2, 2010.

Pursuant to settlement litigation, the division of elections completed signature verification of 35 initially rejected initiative petition booklets. On December 20, 2010 the initiative committee was notified by the Lieutenant Governor Treadwell that the initiative petition was properly filed. The initiative petition is scheduled for the August 28, 2012 Primary Election ballot unless the legislature passes an act that is substantially the same as the proposed law before the 2012 primary election.
