RESOLUTION NO. 2000-540
REVISING THE POLICY FOR SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DEFERMENT FOR
HOMESTEAD PROPERTY OWNED BY SENIOR CITIZENS AND DISABLED
PEOPLE
WHEREAS, the City of Plymouth has adopted a policy which allows senior and disabled
persons to apply for deferment of special assessments based on income guidelines; and
WHEREAS, the policy does not allow for an individual to have excess income in a given
year; and
WHEREAS, if an individual exceeds the income guidelines the special assessments
become due and payable which could create a financial hardship;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF PLYMOUTH; that the attached revised policy for special
assessment deferment for homestead property for senior citizens and disabled people be
approved which allows an already qualified individual to retain the deferment even
though the annual income is not more than 150% in excess of the income guidelines and
revise the policy to include criteria for deferment termination.
Adopted by the City Council on November 14, 2000.
