Sec. 7. (a) The county property tax assessment board of appeals, after careful examination, shall approve or disapprove each exemption application and shall note its action on the application.
(b) If the county property tax assessment board of appeals approves the exemption, in whole or part:
(1) the county assessor shall notify the county auditor of the approval; and
(2) the county auditor shall note the board's action on the tax duplicate.
The county auditor's notation is notice to the county treasurer that the exempt property shall not be taxed for the current year unless otherwise ordered by the department of local government finance.
(c) If the exemption application is disapproved by the county property tax assessment board of appeals, the county assessor shall notify the applicant by mail. Within forty-five (45) days after the notice is mailed, the owner may, in the manner prescribed in IC 6-1.1-15-3, petition the Indiana board to review the county property tax assessment board of appeals' determination.
(d) If the county property tax assessment board of appeals fails to approve or disapprove an exemption application within one hundred eighty (180) days after the owner files an application for exemption under this chapter, the owner may, before the county property tax assessment board of appeals approves or disapproves the exemption application, petition the Indiana board to approve or disapprove the exemption application as authorized under IC 6-1.1-15-3(g).
(e) A petition to the Indiana board under this section shall be conducted in the same manner as appeals under IC 6-1.1-15-4 through IC 6-1.1-15-8.
