Changes "taxation" to "collection of taxes" in the principal residence exemption language for persons unable to contribute toward public charges due to poverty.

Replaces "shall" with "must" throughout the section for stylistic consistency in describing eligibility requirements.

Adds higher income threshold of 175% of federal poverty guidelines for disabled or elderly persons seeking the exemption, compared to 100% for other applicants.

Adds new definitions section clarifying that "disabled person" and "elderly person" have the same meanings as in section 7d, and formally defines "federal poverty guidelines" and "principal residence."
