Program: Senior Citizen Sewer Service Charge Exemption & Rebate

Agency: City of Chicago Department of Finance

Resource Number: 80919182
Description

City of Chicago Department of Finance's Senior Citizen Sewer Service Charge Exemption & Rebate entitles seniors aged 65 or over, residing in their own residence with separate metered water service or a separate city water assessment for that residential unit, to an exemption from payment of the sewer service charge for their residence. This exemption provides substantial savings to seniors.

Senior Citizens who own and occupy their own residence, but who are not eligible for the Senior Citizen Sewer Charge Exemption due to property type, can apply for the Senior Citizen Sewer Rebate. This provides an annual $50 rebate in lieu of the exemption.
