Summary
The proposal amends state law to increase the property‑tax relief available to owners who are 65 or older or who are totally disabled. It creates a new sliding‑scale exemption based on the home’s assessed value and adds higher flat‑rate exemptions of $7,500 now and $14,000 beginning in 2027. The goal is to lower the tax burden for these vulnerable homeowners.
