Bill > SB00720

This bill proposes to modify an existing property tax exemption for disabled veterans by expanding the definition of what can be exempted and clarifying the disability rating requirements. Specifically, the bill would extend the current property tax exemption to include not just the dwelling itself, but also the land on which the dwelling sits, providing additional financial relief for qualifying disabled veterans. The bill also seeks to clarify the disability rating requirement, addressing whether a veteran must have a service-connected disability rating that is either permanent and total or one hundred percent in order to be eligible for the tax exemption. This change aims to provide more precise guidance on the disability rating qualification for veterans seeking property tax relief, potentially making the exemption more accessible or more clearly defined for those who have been disabled during their military service.
