[Adopted 2-19-2025 by Ord. No. 25-01]
The Township will allow for either a veteran or surviving spouse of a veteran to obtain municipal property tax relief upon proper claim pursuant to N.J.S.A. 54:4-3.30 et seq. An eligible veteran shall be defined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or its successor, who has been or shall be declared by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or its successor to have a service connected disability and to be determined to be 100% permanently disabled.
In determining a grant of a municipal tax exemption under this article, the Township will prorate the exemption from the date the tax exemption application has been approved by the Tax Assessor until the remainder of the year in which application is made and accepted by the Tax Assessor. There shall be no retroactive refund granted, regardless of the disability date determination of the United States Department of Veterans Affairs.
