What is the Disabled Persons' Exemption? |
|
 The
Disabled Persons’ Exemption provides an annual $2,000 reduction
in the equalized assessed value (EAV) of your property. To qualify, you
must be disabled during the assessment year, own or have a legal or
equitable interest in the property, have occupied the property as your
principal residence on January 1, 2007, and be liable for payment of the
property taxes.

Can I estimate the amount of my exemption? |
|
Yes. You can estimate the amount of your exemption by
multiplying the $2,000 reduction in EAV for this exemption by the total
tax rate that is shown on your most recent property tax bill. (Example:
$2,000 EAV x 10% = $200 estimated amount of your exemption.) |
