Bronco Assessor Damjan Lara said homeowners 65 or older or those with disabilities who earn less than $42,900 may qualify for the assessor's Value Freeze program, which he described as a way to keep a home's taxable value from rising.

Lara said "studies show that most older Americans fear that rising property taxes could force them out of their homes that they've worked their entire lives for," and positioned the program as one tool to address that concern. "If you're 65 or older or have a disability and earn less than 42,900, you may qualify for our Value Freeze program, which literally freezes your home's property values in place," he said.

The announcement provided only basic eligibility details and contact options. Lara encouraged eligible residents to "know your value and check out Value Freeze today" and said those seeking help should call the assessor's office, email, or stop by in person. The transcript did not specify an application deadline, exact benefits beyond frozen taxable value, filing requirements, or phone or email contact information.

The statement appeared to be an informational outreach rather than a formal policy action or vote; no motions, votes or formal agenda items were recorded in the transcript excerpt.
