    Are you aware that this month you can take advantage of the higher Property Tax Freeze Program?

    The qualifying income limit for the Property Tax Freeze program will increase from $47,750 to $60,000 this month, allowing more Davidson County residents to freeze their property taxes.

    To help with the sign-up process, the Trustees Office is hosting multiple events across Davidson County with Tax freeze and relief experts available to provide one-on-one assistance to people.

    "If the public can come out and you're 65 years or older and you qualify, this is a tremendous tax savings before the re-appraisal year," explained Metro Trustee Erica Gilmore. "That's a big deal. This would freeze your property taxes. If your taxes were currently $2,000 and you went through re-appraisal and they were $4,000, if you apply they would still be $2,000. That is a major savings."

    Below are the 2024 Tax Relief and Tax Freeze Sign-up Events:

    She's in her 80's and legally blind. Franklin woman continues to crochet for those in need

    “Here’s a great story that proves everyone has something to give, regardless of age OR personal challenges. Our Austin Pollack introduces us to Ms Sylvia Mooney. At age 80, she’s not sitting still. Instead, she using her skills to craft compassion for others… one stitch at a time. Her crochet creations go to non-profits to help our homeless neighbors. You’ll be surprised to learn she does it all, while facing a serious health issue. Bravo Sylvia!”
