An Act relative property tax liability reduction for volunteer services
This bill increases the property tax exemption threshold for volunteer services from $1,500 to $2,000 in Massachusetts. It directly affects property owners who provide volunteer services, allowing them to deduct a larger amount from their taxable property value. The change is achieved by amending Section 5K of Chapter 59 in state law to update the specific dollar figure. This adjustment reduces the amount of property tax these individuals owe based on their volunteer contributions.
