ABOUT MEASURE C
Voters approved Milpitas Unified School District (District) parcel tax, Measure C, in June 2014. Measure C, an eight-year parcel tax, renewed Measure B and maintained the same tax of $84 per parcel per year. Measure C, commenced on July 1, 2015 and will expire on June 30, 2023.
The purpose for the parcel tax is to maintain strong core academic programs in math, science, reading, and writing; prepare students for college and 21st Century careers; continue teaching programs in science, technology, engineering, and math to help graduates succeed; and attract and retain highly qualified and experienced teachers, with no proceeds used for administrative salaries and benefits.
PARCEL TAX EXEMPTION
Any Milpitas owner of a parcel used solely for owner-occupied, single-family residential purposes and who are:
(a) 65 years of age or older on or before June 30 of the fiscal year immediately preceding the year in which the tax would apply, or
(b) receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI) for a disability, regardless of age, or
(c) property owners who own parcels that are contiguous and held under identical ownership**
may obtain an exemption from the parcel tax by submitting an application, by June 15 of any year, to the District.
**Contiguous Parcel Exemption: The contiguous parcel exemption allows a Milpitas property owner to combine adjacent parcels (parcels that share a common border) into one taxable unit. These combined parcels must also be used solely for owner-occupied, single-family residential purposes and held under identical ownership.
