An Act authorizing the town of Auburn to offer expanded senior property tax abatements

This bill expands property tax relief for seniors in Auburn by adjusting the town's existing senior exemption program. It raises the base exemption amount from $500 to $1,500, adds eligibility for seniors over 70 living with children under 70 (who occupy the home as their primary residence), and replaces fixed income thresholds with income limits tied to 50% of HUD's Area Median Income (adjusted for household size). The changes apply to Auburn properties and increase income limits for exemption from $28,000/$30,000 to $80,000/$110,000. It directly affects Auburn residents aged 70+ who meet the new income and residency criteria.
