Would this qualify for the special property tax refund?

Property taxes in 2010 were approx. $500; we were taxed on the land only without the house. Property taxes for 2011 have been raised to about $2,400 since we are now being taxed on our lot + the house (new construction).

The requirements are: 

*************************

  • You must have owned and lived in the same home on both January 2, 2010 and January 2, 2011,
  • The net property tax on your homestead must have increased by more than 12 percent from 2010 to 2011, and
  • The increase must have been $100 or more and the increase is not attributable to new improvements.
*************************

So is the building of our house on the property "attributable to new improvements?"

I am confused by this. Thanks in advance.
