I had a call from a senior citizen who is concerned about high property taxes. The SD Department of Revenue has information on its website about a number of relief programs that are designed to offer financial assistant to the elderly and disabled.
Those programs include:
- Sales and Property Tax Refund for Senior & Disabled Citizens
- Assessment Freeze for the Elderly & Disabled
- Property Tax Reduction from Municipal Taxes for the Elderly and Disabled
- Property Tax Homestead Exemption
- Property Tax Exemption for Paraplegic Veterans
- Property Tax Exemption for Disabled Veterans
- Property Tax Reduction for Paraplegics
