A. Property, buildings and fixtures that are leased to a veterans' organization shall be classified as class nine property pursuant to § 42-12009. If only part of the parcel or improvements is leased to a veterans' organization and primarily used or held for the operations of the veterans' organization, only the portion so leased qualifies as class nine property. To qualify under this subsection, the veterans' organization must annually file with the assessor an affidavit that it:
1. Continues to use or hold the property primarily for the operations of the veterans' organization.
2. Is the sole economic beneficiary of the classification of the property as class nine pursuant to § 42-12009, subsection A, paragraph 6.
B. Property, buildings and fixtures that are owned by a veterans' organization, that are leased to a veterans' organization and that are primarily used for the operations of the veterans' organization are exempt from taxation.
C. If the veterans' organization that owns the property files with the assessor the affidavit required by § 42-11152, evidence of the veterans' organization's tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(19) of the internal revenue code 1 and an affidavit by the veterans' organization that it uses or holds the property primarily for the operations of the veterans' organization as described in subsection B of this section, the property qualifies for the tax exemption under this section. The veterans' organization shall notify the county assessor in writing pursuant to § 42-11152 if all or part of the property is conveyed to a new owner or is no longer primarily used or held by the veterans' organization.
D. For the purposes of this section, “veterans' organization” means a United States veterans' organization that qualifies as a charitable organization and that is recognized under section 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(19) of the internal revenue code.
