Local volunteers are stepping up to assist homeowners in Snohomish County by hosting a seminar on September 24 at the Edmonds Waterfront Center. This event focuses on the property tax exemption program, which is available for seniors and disabled individuals with a disposable income of $75,000 or less after deducting medical expenses. Attendees can learn about the eligibility criteria and receive application forms during two separate sessions offered at 2 p. m. and 3 p.

m. The seminar is free and does not require membership in the Waterfront Center, making it accessible to all interested homeowners. Registration can be completed by calling the Waterfront Center at 425-774-5555. Furthermore, workshops will be held monthly for individuals who require additional help with their applications. The senior tax exemption program operates statewide and is administered by each county's tax assessor.

This initiative aims to provide essential financial relief to vulnerable populations within the community, supporting them in managing their property taxes effectively.
