The discussion focused on helping seniors who say their property taxes are no longer affordable. A home-rule petition would be a special bill applying only to Seekonk and would require action beyond the Board of Assessors. The board took no recorded vote on the proposed exemption and adjourned its regular session by a 3-0 vote.
