26-26-1401. Purpose. (a) It is the purpose and intent of this subchapter to reduce the number of persons avoiding the payment of tangible personal property taxes by moving from one county to another within the state or by moving outside the state between the time of assessing property for taxes and the time of collecting taxes thereon by establishing a system that reduces the time period from the date of assessment to the date of collection. (b) It is further the intent of this subchapter that, when personal property taxes are paid in advance as provided for in this subchapter, the normal procedures carried out by the various county officials and state officials with respect to property taxes shall continue in effect, and, if it is determined through the normal procedures presently in effect that any person who paid personal property taxes in advance overpaid such taxes, the overpayment will be refunded to the taxpayer, and that, if the advance payment of the tangible personal property taxes by a taxpayer is an underpayment of the tax, the taxpayer will be billed for the additional amount due. (c) It is further the intent of this subchapter that the taxpayer will be required to furnish proof of payment of tangible personal property taxes as a condition for registering or renewing the registration of any motor vehicle.
