Design For Life

Montgomery County Executive Ike Leggett joined the staff from the County’s Department of Permitting Services for the inaugural Design For Life (DFL) Showcase.  The DFL Property Tax Incentive Program provides 3 tiers of property tax incentives to make homes more universally accessible.  For new home construction a school impact tax credit may be available for projects meeting Level I and Level II Accessibility standards. Whether you are a first time homebuyer, young family, active adult, or person living with a temporary or permanent impairment, these additional design elements will enhance your home and, at the same time, meet your needs and your visitors’ needs throughout your life.
