Don't know if it's even legal, but I would love our town to make property taxes decline from age 65 to 80 when they would reach 0%. Making it attractive for our seniors to stay adds a lot of things to the betterment of the town and most of all would reduce the unending pressure on the schools. Yes this would raise the already high property taxes for the rest of us but not for long as the new equilibrium settled in. Having a retired couple in the 3 bedroom home down the block paying 50% would save me money as well. Win Win.
