Page warns seniors about property tax freeze sign-up events
SUMMARY: St. Louis County Executive Sam Page issued a warning to seniors regarding unauthorized events for the senior property tax freeze program. He emphasized that only county-approved sign-up events are safe, discouraging participation in outside events to protect seniors’ personal information and ensure accurate applications. The program has seen significant interest since opening October 1, receiving 25,000 applications. Seniors can apply online through the St. Louis County website and can also register for a property fraud alert service. Page’s concerns reflect ongoing discussions about the program’s rollout and its complexities, as only a few counties have implemented it so far.
“We strongly discourage anyone from participating in any public senior tax freeze events that isn’t approved by St. Louis County,” St. Louis County Executive Sam Page said.
