(A) (1) Any structure classified pursuant to this section shall, following construction, be valued for taxation purposes in the usual manner. However, the board of county commissioners of the county where the structure is located may adopt any formula for assessed value to be used for tax purposes. The formula may include, for any or all of the five tax years following construction, all, any portion or none of the assessed valuation for tax purposes. Any formula adopted shall be equally applied to specifically classified structures within a tax increment finance district.
(2) The board of county commissioners of the county where the structure is located, may, if requested by the owner of the structure, not apply the discretionary formula, and the full assessment shall be made without application of the formula. In waiving the formula for the structure of one owner, the board of county commissioners is not prohibited from applying the formula for subsequent new structures.
(3) The assessed valuation during any of the five years may not be less than the assessed valuation of the property in the year preceding the first year of the tax years following construction.
(B) Any structure that is partially constructed on the assessment date may be valued for tax purposes pursuant to this section, and the valuation may not be less than the assessed valuation of the property in the year preceding the beginning of construction. The period that the property is valued for tax purposes under this section may include the years when the property is partially constructed.
(C) Following the five-year period under this section, the property shall be assessed at the same percentage as is all other property for tax purposes.
(D) Any of the following types of real property may be specifically classified for the purpose of taxation pursuant to this section:
(1) Any new industrial or commercial structure, or any addition, renovation or reconstruction to an existing structure, located within a designated urban renewal area, as defined in SDCL § 11-8-4, if the new structure, addition, renovation or reconstruction has a full and true value of $30,000 or more;

(7) Any new residential structure, or addition to or renovation of an existing structure, located within a redevelopment neighborhood established pursuant to SDCL § 10-6-141 if the new structure, addition or renovation has a full and true value of $5,000 or more.
