Agenda Item
Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on increasing the Over 65 Property Tax Exemption from $30,000 to $50,000 and the Disabled Person Exemption from $20,000 to $25,000.
Background
On December 18, 2018, the Commissioners Court agreed to begin a review of the County’s exemption policy every five years, beginning in 2020. On October 22, 2019, the Commissioners Court voted to increase the Over 65 Exemption from $25,000 to $30,000 and increase the Disabled Person Exemption from $15,000 to $20,000. Given the increase in residential appraisals, it is recommended that action be taken this year, instead of waiting the full five years.
