The Town of Voluntown hereby adopts a permit fee exemption for
senior property owners.
No fee shall be required for a permit to replace or upgrade
the roofing, siding, windows or electrical or heating system of an
owner-occupied, single-family home if at least one of the record owners
is aged 62 or over. Such owner shall be required to provide proof
of age in order to obtain this exemption.
No building application shall be approved by the Building Department
of the Town of Voluntown until the applicant provides the Building
Department with proof there are no delinquent taxes due for the property
for which an application is made, or provides a statement from the
Tax Collector that the owner of the property for which an application
is made has entered into a payment program to pay off any delinquent
taxes which may be due. As used in this section, the term "building
application" shall include any application for building, mechanical
or septic permits.
