The Arlington County Board is continuing its Grant Programs for another year- saving certain property owners some money on their annual property taxes. There are two different programs and you may qualify for either one but not both.
With the recent raise in property taxes over the past 5 years, this is a great program for those who qualify.

- All owners reside in the home as their sole residence, and
- They own and live in their Arlington home as of December 31st 2006.

The Tax grant is not automatic and you have to apply by filing an application by DECEMBER 31, 2007.
