Bland supervisors recommend income and net-worth limits for elderly and disabled tax credit
Summary
The Bland County Board unanimously recommended eligibility limits for the age and disabled tax credit: gross combined income no greater than $35,000, net financial worth not to exceed $85,000, a $250 credit, and a requirement of no outstanding trash bill.
At its April 17, 2026 continued meeting the Bland County Board of Supervisors unanimously recommended eligibility requirements for the age and disabled tax credit. Supervisor Stephen Kelley moved the recommendation and Supervisor Patrick Groseclose seconded; roll-call votes were Kelley — yea; Groseclose — yea; Costello — yea; Johnson — yea.
The board’s recommendation specifies three quantitative limits: combined gross income of the owner not to exceed $35,000 and net financial worth not to exceed $85,000, together with a $250 tax credit. The motion also included a condition described in the transcript as "no trash bill," which the board did not define or explain in the recorded segment.
The transcript records the board’s unanimous vote in favor of the recommendation but does not state whether this action constitutes final adoption, whether the criteria will be published for public comment, or when any changes would take effect. The board adjourned after the vote and scheduled its next regular meeting for April 28, 2026, at 5:00 p.m.
Because the transcript provides no implementing ordinance or effective date, the recommendation is described here exactly as recorded: the numerical limits are specified in the motion and other procedural or enforcement details are not specified in the segment.
