Peru Property Owners Have Been Receiving Tax Freeze ‘Rebate’ Checks

A few days ago Town of Peru property owners started receiving tax freeze ‘rebate’ rebate checks which range from $100 to $200 and higher thanks to the Town of Peru and the Peru School District staying under the state-imposed tax cap. The school district also had to submit a plan detailing how it would shrink property tax collections by 1%.

A person must have applied for the School Tax Relief Program (STAR) and be a property owner in order to qualify.  Renters do not qualify. If you’re unsure if you qualify or if you have not received a rebate check State Senator Betty Little has published a number for you to call at the NYS Department of Taxation and Finance – 518-453-8146.
