Pickens County Tax Assessor and Tax Commissioner (Daniel Reeves): the county’s own exemption table at the $43,000 disabled-veteran base

The county's own table. The county's Tax Assessor page, "Property Tax Exemptions in Pickens County": "The Georgia State Constitution provides for property tax exemptions to a homestead property owned by a taxpayer and occupied as a legal residence. Local governments may provide increased exemptions over the amount allowed by the State, and this is the case in Pickens County." The Regular Homestead Exemption: "In Pickens County, the Regular Homestead Exemption is $5000 subtracted from the Assessed Value. This applies to the Pickens County and School Tax Assessments, but not the Georgia Assessment, where the Exemption is $2000." The School Tax Homestead Exemption: "Pickens County exempts elderly taxpayers on a low income from funding related to the school system: You must have a Regular Homestead Exemption. You must be 62 years of age or older. The Gross Income for the entire household must be less than $25,000." The Disability Homestead Exemption: "Pickens County exempts disabled taxpayers on a low income from funding related to the school system ... Certification of Total Disability by three Physicians must be provided with the application." The veteran line. "Disabled Veteran's Homestead Exemption (Constitutional). Pickens County exempts veteran taxpayers with 100% service-connected disabilities at a higher level: You must have a Regular Homestead Exemption. Certification of Total Disability by the Veterans Administration and, in some cases, other physicians must be provided with the application. You must apply before April 1st of the application year. The Disabled Veteran's Homestead Exemption in Pickens County is set at $43,000." That is the older constitutional base - the State entries carry the yearly indexed amount, which has run higher since; the county's page carries no newer figure. Where and who.
