On January 25, 2023, the Town of Ramapo Town Board adopted a local law authorizing a partial tax exemption for volunteer firefighters and volunteer ambulance workers.
Officials say the move would allow for an exemption of up to 10% of the assessed value of the primary residence of volunteer firefighters and ambulance workers.
There are some stipulations, however, such as the requirement for the property to be owned by the volunteer, that the property must be the volunteer’s residence and the volunteer must live in the jurisdiction that is served by the fire department or ambulance service.
Application are due on or before March 1, 2023.
