Extends eligibility for property tax benefits to veterans, 100 percent service-disabled veterans, and senior citizens and persons with disabilities who pay payments in lieu of property taxes.
This bill extends an existing property tax exemption for veterans with 100% service-connected disabilities (such as paraplegia, amputation, or total blindness) and their eligible surviving spouses to include those who pay "payments in lieu of property taxes" in urban renewal areas. It also clarifies that tenant shareholders in cooperative housing can claim the exemption for their proportionate share of taxes, provided the veteran or surviving spouse is the sole beneficiary. The exemption applies to the primary residence and is in addition to other existing property tax benefits, without replacing other available exemptions.
