Council Member Helena Brown: Ask Houston Council – Increase Senior Exemption!
Hi! This is Council Member Helena Brown.
It was my pleasure sharing an evening with the Kingwood Tea Party! I got goosebumps when I saw the crowded room rise in mass, and stand and say the pledge of allegiance! What a great group of patriots! Is there hope for the future, or what?!!!
I promised this information about the upcoming Budget vote this Wednesday morning.
Fixed Income Seniors are constantly being squeezed by higher costs, such as the drainage fee and higher water rates, and it concerns me that the City of Houston does not allow Senior Citizens the same exemption on their Property Taxes as Harris County. This week,* two other Council Members and I have joined is proposing a Budget Amendment that would allow Seniors the tax break that they deserve.*
Now to garner support for this Amendment, *we need the Mayor and Other Council Members to hear your voice. *
*Please call the Mayor’s Office & City Council Members and ask them to support the Burks, Bradford, & Brown Amendment to Increase the Senior Exemption.*
