PILT (Payments in Lieu of Taxes): Somewhat Simplified


This paper explains PILT payments, with an analysis of the five major factors affecting the calculation of a payment to a given county. It also describes the effects of certain changes in PILT in 2008. Previously, annual appropriations were necessary to fund PILT, but a 2008 provision (in P.L. 110-343) for mandatory spending ensured that, beginning with FY2008 and continuing for four more years, all counties will receive 100% of the authorized payment. Efforts have begun to convert the temporary mandatory spending into a permanent feature of PILT. With the enactment of five years of mandatory spending, counties might also renew the long-term debate over the equity of the PILT formula itself in future years.
