Bill Summary
Relative to expanding the senior property tax exemption. Revenue.
AI Summary
This bill expands the senior property tax exemption in Massachusetts. Specifically, it allows cities and towns to reduce the eligibility age for the exemption to 65 years or older, and to increase the exemption amount by up to 100%, or increase the $500 exemption to up to $2,000. This provides more flexibility for local governments to adjust the senior property tax exemption to better suit the needs of their older residents.
