City of Topeka’s Property Tax Rebate Program now under the Community Resource Council

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - The City of Topeka’s Property Tax Rebate Program will now be handled by the Community Resource Council (CRC) to better serve residents and streamline the application process.

The program provides financial relief for eligible senior homeowners and is designed to assist Topeka residents aged 65 and older by offering a rebate on a portion of the property taxes they have paid on their primary residence.

The program remains separate from the State of Kansas Homestead Refund Program but continues to follow similar guidelines to ensure assistance reaches those in need.

As part of this transition, eligible residents should now submit their applications and required documentation in person to the Community Resource Council at 455 SE Golf Park Blvd.

Eligibility requirements remain unchanged:

• Must be a Topeka resident
• Must own and occupy the home as a primary residence for at least five years
• Must be 65 years of age or older
• Total annual household income must not exceed $37,750

The rebate program will continue to operate on a first-come, first-served basis until allocated funds are exhausted.

For more information about the program and how to apply, residents can contact the Community Resource Council at Property Tax Rebate Program – Community Resources Council or call 785-233-1365.
