HALL WANTS TAX RELIEF FOR SENIORS

STATE REPRESENTATIVE CHRIS HALL OF SIOUX CITY HAS INTRODUCED A BILL IN THE IOWA LEGISLATURE THAT WOULD PROTECT SENIOR CITIZENS FROM PROPERTY TAX INCREASES:

UNDER THE MEASURE, RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY TAXES WOULD ONLY INCREASE IF THE HOMEOWNER MADE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE PROPERTY.

ANOTHER PART OF HALL'S PLAN ALLOWS MORE TIME FOR HOMEOWNERS OF ANY AGE TO APPEAL A TAX INCREASE ON THEIR PROPERTY:

IF HALL'S MEASURE PASSES, THE PROPERTY TAX FREEZE FOR THOSE OVER 65 WOULD BE RETROACTIVE TO JANUARY 1ST OF THIS YEAR.
