Cole County to open online senior tax-freeze applications; in-person intake slated after May 1
Summary
County staff said online applications for the senior tax-freeze program start immediately, with in-person application sessions beginning after May 1 and a June 30 deadline; staffing and volunteer needs remain under evaluation.
County staff told commissioners on April 7 that online applications for the senior tax-freeze program would open immediately and that in-person intake is planned to begin after May 1.
Officials said the in-person sessions would likely run on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and that volunteers from several departments would be needed to staff the intake. A June 30 deadline was mentioned for completed applications, though staff said that date could shift because of the late start.
Commissioners asked about staffing and volunteers and were told the county would post applications and that additional details would be provided as volunteer commitments are confirmed. No formal policy change or vote was recorded at the meeting; the discussion focused on operational rollout and scheduling.
