Tax exemption plan seeks 65 plus relief through 1974 referendum
The town council approved a revised proposal to allow seniors over 65 earning under 5500 annually to receive a 1000 property tax exemption starting Dec 1974 if voters approve in November 1974. The plan raises the income limit from 3000 to 5500, aligning with supporters who view broad relief as desirable but limiting aid to those who need it.
