Medina County voters overwhelmingly support tax freeze for elderly residents
There was only one proposition on the ballot for Medina County voters this year–a property tax freeze for residents 65+. With property tax appraisals climbing by leaps and bounds in recent years, it has become a growing concern.
Over 93% of voters voted yes (11,897 residents), with just under 7% voting nay (825 residents).
County Commisioner Jerry Beck pushed for the freeze, which was discussed in Commisioners Court, and as a whole, they decided to give voters the choice to institute the freeze or not.
