A.
The Tax Assessor of the Town of Pompey is hereby authorized to accept

Application for such exemption must be made by the owner or all of

No. 3-2016]
B.
In the event that the owner or all of the owners of property which
has received an exemption pursuant to said § 467 on the
preceding assessment roll fail to file the application required pursuant
to said § 467 on or before the taxable status date, such
owner or owners may file the application, executed as if such application
had been filed on or before the taxable status date, with the Assessor
on or before the date for the hearing of complaints.
C.
An application for such exemption may be filed with the Assessor
after the appropriate taxable status date, but not later than the
last date on which a petition with respect to complaints for assessment
may be filed, where failure to file a timely application resulted
from: a death of the applicant's spouse, child, parent, brother or
sister; or an illness of the applicant or of the applicant's spouse,
child, parent, brother or sister, which actually prevents the applicant
from filing on a timely basis, as certified by a licensed physician.
The Assessor shall approve or deny such application as if it had been
filed on or before the taxable status date.
