Senior Tax Relief

Senior Real Estate Property Tax Relief

The tax relief program was adopted by the Clay County Commission on November 30, 2023. This program allows the County to provide a tax relief on real property taxes for the primary residence of Clay County homeowners 62 years of age or older, who are liable for the payment of the taxes on said property, and who apply to participate in the program. This program is NOT automatic. Homeowners must apply or re-apply annually for participation. This program does not apply to personal property.

When you first apply for the program the base year is established as the prior tax year. EX. First applying in 2026 will establish your base year as 2025! If you first applied in 2025, your base year is established as 2024; you must reapply annually!
