Of this total, the impact on the <br />County’s portion of the taxes is $19,106.74. <br /> <br />ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLAN: This item supports: <br /> GOAL 6: DIVERSE AND VIBRANT ECONOMY <br />OBJECTIVE 5. Increase access to and awareness of resources and assistance available <br />to residents and businesses. <br /> <br />By considering and approving qualifying exemptions, the County helps ensure equitable access <br />to statutory tax relief, thereby supporting residents of varying incomes and circumstances.
