VOLUNTEER AMBULANCE WORKERS EXEMPTION IN CLINTON COUNTY
Authorization for exemption: Section 466-j of the Real Property Tax Law authorizes the governing body of a
county, town, village, fire district or school district in a county having a population of more than 79,000 and less
than 80,000 according to the latest federal decennial census (only Clinton County currently satisfies this standard)
to partially exempt the residence of a volunteer firefighter or volunteer ambulance worker.
Computation and duration of exemption: The exemption is available only to members of incorporated volunteer
fire companies, fire departments or incorporated volunteer ambulance services who have been certified as being
enrolled members for at least five years. The municipality determines the procedure for certification. At local
option of the county, city, town, village, fire district or school district, the exemption may be granted for the life of
an enrolled member who has accrued more than 20 years of active service.
The exemption may be granted only to applicants who reside in the city, town or village served by the fire
company, fire department or ambulance service. The exemption is available only to the primary residence of the
applicant and only to property (or the portion thereof) exclusively used for residential purposes.
The exemption equals 10 percent of the assessed value of the property. However, for village tax purposes,
where the property previously received the $500 exemption authorized by section 466 of the Real Property Tax
Law, the minimum exemption is $500.
Place and time of filing application: The application must be filed annually in the assessor’s office (or other
official as designated by the municipality) on or before taxable status date (March 1). Proof of certification of
enrolled membership in the fire company or department or ambulance service shall be as required by the county,
town, village, fire district or school district authorizing the exemption. Proof of ownership of the property needs to
be filed with the owner’s initial application. The assessor may request proof of primary residence (e.g. voter’s
registration, tax return).
