Disabled Veterans Credit is statewide. Your County Treasurer and Assessor would both know who received abatements. But they are done annually and not automatic like the Veterans credit is.

Curt moved out there and the neighborhood is now going to hell...
I know of disabled veterans that are or were fully employed and now retired. An example would be agent orange exposure. Some of the information on public pages is redacted. Your County Assessor would be able to tell you what or what circumstances that some information is not available. Some GIS department are slow at getting map information online. It is quite a process.
Not always. There were some issues taken up with the legislature and with law enforcement officers a few years ago. I dont recall how it turned out. Your County Assessor would know.
Decrepit properties can be declared a public health nuisance by a County Health Department. This is commonly done in abatement procedures by city & county officials to force an owner to clean up a property whether occupied or abandoned. Examples are junk vehicles weed infested trash dump properties. It is a well established legal process that is about the only available means to go after these type of property owners.
I should do this with some of the houses in my town. There's some real dumps on the north end of town along 17.
Stanhope. There's some real dumps on the north edge of town. Some dude built a privacy fence out of plywood, which surprisingly has held up a few years. Same guy also wrapped his porch in trash bags to cut down on a draft.
I wonder what the assessed value would be today if the county accessor came out? Is that something you can have them do? Just wondering. I can't believe that if it is that run down that would still be that much.
But then again farmland in Hawaii is over $1 mil an acre. I told someone that we owned a few hundred acres and their eyes about popped out of their head, right before I told them it was on the mainland.

My parents got a disabled veterans credit due to the association of my father’s heart disease to a number of tropical illnesses he endured in the war in the Pacific. He would not have appeared disabled to anyone looking at him but he got very weak walking very far or even standing for a lengthy period.
Curt, it looks like your property has one building bigger than the other. Let me guess, the auto racing stuff is bigger than the house?
To be fair a CPA's interaction with PROPERTY tax is 1) paying their own property taxes and 2) putting the amount of property taxes an individual paid on their tax return. LOL
Yes the race shop is bigger than the house and that's how it should be LOL. In the more recent pics on the Assessors or Treasurers page you can see the race hauler parked next to the shop and longer than the shop lol.
That's putting it nicely.
Update:
I called the County Developmental Office this morning. They have sent numerous letters and received no response. The guy said he actually is finishing up the paperwork to take them to District Court and hoped to have the paper work done today. Seems a couple other neighbors have been also complaining. He asked if he could come walk on my side of the property line to take pictures and I told him he can do whatever he needs.
The county and towns generally have a balancing act (besides the fact that most decent business people won’t run for city councils or county supervisors) between how much the property is with and the clean up costs if they get it back. Many times the person had very little money and the city/county knows that anything they do under forced cleanup will sit there until the property is sold to clear the lien and sometimes the property is more costly to clean up that what they would receive.
I know a bank that had a loan on a property and it became a dump site. The bank released the mortgage and internally deemed it an unsecured loan so they would not get the property back due to clean up costs and potential “hazardous” issues.
