The Broward County Property Appraiser's Office will organize a series of community outreach events throughout the county in May, including two in Coral Springs.

The first meeting in Coral Springs will be from 3 to 5 p.m. on May 13 at the Northwest Regional Library, 3151 University Drive in Coral Springs. The second one will be from 4:30 to 6 p.m. on May 28 at Sartory Hall, 10000 NW 29 St.

Deputy appraisers will assist with homestead, senior and other property tax exemption applications, as well as answer questions on property taxes. Applications for portability will also be accepted. All outreach events are open to the public.

Documents required to file a homestead exemption include a current Florida driver's license or Florida identification card, and a current voter registration card or declaration of domicile. Non-US citizens must also provide proof of permanent residency.

Qualified residents 65 years of age or older as of Jan. 1, 2009 can apply for the additional senior exemption.
