Relates to adjusting the STAR credit depending on the age of a person

Summary

The bill raises the base amount of both basic and enhanced STAR exemptions when the youngest qualifying owner is 65 or older, using a sliding scale of 10% to 50% depending on age. It applies only to owner‑occupied homes that already meet STAR eligibility and ensures the increase cannot make the taxable value negative or give a parcel multiple exemptions. The change is meant to give senior homeowners greater tax relief.
