Senior Citizen Exemption (to Property Taxes)

Seniors that were previously approved do not need to reapply.

The Senior Citizen Exemption is available to applicants who:

  • Are at least 65 years of age prior to January 1 of the year of application,
  • Owned their home for at least 10 consecutive years prior to January 1, and
  • Occupied the home as their primary residence for at least 10 consecutive years prior to January 1.

For those who qualify, 50 percent of the first $200,000 in actual value of the primary residence is exempted from property tax. Once an exemption application is filed and approved by the assessor, the exemption remains in effect until a disqualifying event occurs.

The application deadline is July 15.
