Annually, the Village allocates resources to its Senior Citizen Property Tax Rebate Program. Through this program eligible Lake Bluff senior citizens may apply to receive a portion of the Village's share of the tax bill rebated (up to $500.00). To qualify for this program, Lake Bluff seniors must meet the following criteria:
- Head of household must be at least 65 years of age;
- Household income must be $45,375 or less; and
- Household members must reside in the Village a minimum of five years and paid property taxes for those years of residency.
Each November the Village sends an application in the mail to those who have qualified for this program in the past. For additional information about the program, or assistance in applying for this rebate, please contact Finance Director Bettina O'Connell or the Lake Forest/Lake Bluff Senior Center (847-234-2209).
