About

Are you concerned about Groton’s low-income elderly population?

Would you like to directly aid these residents in paying their property taxes?

Donate now to the new Tax Relief for Elders and the Disabled (TREAD) Fund.

The money goes directly into a special account and every dollar will be used for tax relief. Town meeting voted to adopt Massachusetts state law Chapter 60, Section 3D, which allows a fund to be created to collect donations and disburse them to low-income elderly property owners and qualifying disabled owners.

Applicants must meet the following criteria:

  • Must own and occupy the property
  • Must be 65 or older or have a state-recognized disability
  • Must file an application disclosing exemptions and household income and expenses for all household members age 18 or older
