Bill overview
This bill, the Municipal Volunteer Property Tax Reduction Act, would allow certain senior citizens (age 60+) who have lived in a municipality for at least 15 years to volunteer their services to the local government in exchange for property tax credits. Municipalities can establish a program where volunteers receive credits up to $1,000 per year, based on the state’s minimum hourly wage. These credits can only be used to pay municipal property taxes owed that year and cannot be carried over to future years. The bill also outlines procedures for municipalities to create and administer these programs, including notification to the state and restrictions on volunteer roles.
