Part 1. Selecting the Program
Each owner may receive benefit from only one of the three property tax relief programs, even though you may meet the
requirements for more than one program.
However, it is possible that the tax rates or tax values may not be established until some time after the filing of this application. This
can make it difficult for you to determine which program you prefer. The following procedures will help to resolve this situation.
Applying for One Program
If you know that you only wish to apply for one program, indicate only that program at the bottom of this section. The assessor will
review your application and send you a notice of decision. The notice of decision will also explain the procedures to appeal if you do
not agree with the decision of the assessor.
Applying for More Than One Program
Each owner is eligible to receive benefit from only one program. However, if you think you meet the requirements for more than
one program but, as a result of the uncertainty of tax rates or values at the time of application, you are unable to make a decision
on which one program you wish to choose, indicate all of the programs at the bottom of this section for which you wish to receive
consideration. When the tax rates and values are determined, the assessor will review your application and will send you a letter
notifying you of your options. If the letter indicates that you do not qualify or if you disagree with any decision in the letter, you may
appeal. You must respond to the option letter within the specified time period or it will be assumed that you do not wish
to participate in any of the property tax relief programs. In that case, you will be so notified and you will have the chance to
appeal.

Multiple Owners: Benefit limitations may apply when there are multiple owners. Each owner must file a separate application (other
