Just posted Joan Koczor's July keeping you informed newsletter. In addition to the newsletter, Joan has added some interesting trivia about NASA and National Hot Dog Month. She reports on Maricopa Seniors, Inc. having just installed their 600th lock box and provided more detail about this valuable program. Joan is taking a little break, so this is her last newsletter until October! Check out Joan's Corner!
The July Community/Senior Center Calendar has also just been posted for your convenience. Check out all of the activities and events. Check out the July 2024 Senior Programming!
You may be entitled to a property tax exemption - Senior Citizen Program.
The “Senior Freeze” program, officially known as the Property Valuation Protection Option, allows taxpayers who are qualified by age and income to have the assessed value of their primary residence fixed (i.e., “frozen”) for a renewable period of three years. Find more information in the "Arizona Property Tax Exemptions for Seniors" article which was recently published in the FINANCES, FINANCIAL SERVICES AND PLANNING category.
