The Town of Lansing passed a property tax exemption for qualified senior citizens in a 4-0 vote Wednesday night. The exemption identifies seniors with the most need, who have disabilities or low income, and provides relief on property taxes. This is the third year the Town has enacted the exemption. Earlier this year the Village of Lansing enacted a similar ordinance for veterans.
"The basic feeling is that it's the right thing to do," said Town Supervisor Steve Farkas. Seniors can apply for the exemption through the County Assessment Office.
