Description

This appeal primarily raises the applicability of the "welfare exemption" from property taxation to facilities used by a nonprofit corporation for theatrical and musical presentations by professional performers. Compelled by the broad rule of decision employed in Stockton Civic Theatre v. Board of Supervisors (1967) 66 Cal. 2d 13 [56 Cal. Rptr. 658, 423 P.2d 810], we conclude that the exemption is applicable to property of plaintiff-respondent. We conclude, also, that operation of a small bar for the convenience of theatre patrons which is incidental to the theatrical use of the property does not prevent the welfare exemption from applying. Finally, we note, for what the comment may be worth to our Supreme Court on a petition for hearing, that changed conditions may have rendered the broad rule of Stockton Civic Theatre no longer suitable.
