What happened

On February 3, 2026, the board said it studied a school-tax exemption for veterans requested by local veterans, and agreed to put off the decision until the town of Webster's property reassessment is done, expected by summer 2027. The board says it will revisit the question then.

Why it matters to families

A veterans exemption would change who pays how much of the school property tax, and the decision will not come until after the new assessments.

The evidence
