DOYLESTOWN, PA —The Central Bucks School District has approved a new Property Tax Rebate Program designed to support senior citizens, individuals with disabilities, low-income homeowners, and renters in the community.

Modeled after Pennsylvania’s rebate program and programs in neighboring districts, the new initiative provides a rebate from the district equal to 50 percent of the state rebate, up to $750. Approximately 2,000 Central Bucks households already receive a state rebate and would be eligible to receive the CB rebate.
