We care about our senior citizens
Any property that is owned and occupied by individuals who are retirees from Federal, State, or Local Government establishments, as well as those from private organizations, and who are residents of the state, is now eligible for an exemption from the Land Use Charge. This exemption also applies to any person who has reached the age of sixty (60) years and has completely withdrawn from any form of business activity that generates remuneration.
