Bill > S2037

This bill authorizes the town of Barrington to establish an ordinance that allows for a tax dollar credit reduction for legally blind individuals, meaning the town can decide to reduce the amount of property tax owed by eligible residents who are legally blind. This change specifically amends existing law regarding property tax exemptions for visually impaired persons, removing a previous provision that mandated a specific exemption amount for Barrington and replacing it with the authority for the town to create its own tax credit through an ordinance. The bill will become effective immediately upon its passage.
