taxpayers and those aged 65 or over nay qualify

“A taxpayer who was 65 or older on January

The chief appraiser pointed out, though, that •
homewners who received the elderly exemption
and tx freeze from the school district last year
need not apply again this year. Only those who

Don Gilmore, chief appraiser for the Gentral
Appraisal District of Johnson County, has
announced the availability of an eight-page
pamphlet which may help district residents save
on their nroperty taxes.
According to Gilmore, "Taxpayers’ Rights,
. Remedies, Responsibilities!” explains how the
property tax system operates in Texas and high-
lights possible tax savings available to property
owners.
The pamphlet is published by the State Property
Tax Board under provisions of the Texas Prop-
erty Rax Code. The information in “Remedies’
applies to property taxes collected by all types of
local government, including counties, cities and
schbol districts.
The pamphlet explains in detail the residence
homestead exemptions offered by various taxing
units, Gilmore said, including the anounts of
" each exemption and what it takes to qualify for
and receive them.
For example, all homeowners in a school
district are eligible for a $5,000 general residence
