Tax Relief for Veterans and Service Members

Did you know that veterans and active duty service members are eligible for a veterans exemption? 

If you qualify, you must file your DD-214 with the Town Clerk's Office.  Veterans who are already receiving the base veterans exemption may also be entitled to an additional veteran’s exemption based on income.  The application runs from February 1 to October 1.  A veteran who has already been approved and is currently receiving the additional exemption needs to reapply every two years.  There is also a local veterans exemption that follows the same application timeline.  A summary of this tax relief program is provided in the attached brochure.
