Summary

The bill changes Maryland’s property‑tax credit rules so that a disabled public safety or judicial officer, or the surviving spouse or cohabitant of a fallen officer, can receive the credit without having been domiciled in the state within five years of the disability or death. It retains other eligibility conditions—such as ownership of the dwelling and the defined relationships—and lets local governments decide the credit amount and duration. The change is intended to broaden access to the credit for eligible families.
