1. Beginning with property taxes due and payable in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1998, the cost of providing a property tax credit or property tax exemption which is enacted by the general assembly on or after January 1, 1997, shall be fully funded by the state.

The department of revenue shall determine by June 15 the estimated portion of the credit or exemption which will be funded by the state appropriation.
