Flick to Provide On-site Constituent Services at White Deer, Gregg Township Municipal Buildings in March, April.
February 22, 2023
District office staff will assist residents eligible to apply for 2022 Property Tax/ Rent Rebate Program.
WILLIAMSPORT – State Rep. Jamie Flick (R-Lycoming/Union) and his district office staff will provide on-site constituent services at the White Deer and Gregg Township municipal buildings three days in March and April.
Flick will be on hand to meet with constituents to answer questions, discuss topics of interest and address areas of concern.
Members of Flick’s staff will also provide free, on-site assistance to residents who are eligible to apply for the 2022 Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program offered by the Department of Revenue.
Flick’s staff have helped more than 150 constituents in the district apply for this program since the beginning of February.
White Deer Township and Gregg Township are now part of the 83rd Legislative District, a result of the recent redistricting process by which the “boundaries of elective districts are periodically withdrawn to maintain equal representation on the basis of population,” according to the Pennsylvania Redistricting website.
“It’s important to me that my staff and I are physically here for our constituents in Union County on a regular basis,” said Flick. “We plan to operate our district office and provide direct constituent services at these two municipal buildings at least once a month moving forward.”
The dates scheduled for district office outreach in March and April are as follows:
• White Deer Township Municipal Building, 2191 Creek Road in New Columbia - Thursday, March 30 and Tuesday, April 11, from 9:30 a.m. to noon.
• Gregg Township Municipal Building, 18084 Russell Road, Allenwood - Tuesday, April 4, from 10 a.m. to noon.
The state’s Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program benefits eligible Pennsylvanians age 65 and older; widows and widowers age 50 and older; and people with disabilities age 18 and older.
The income limit is $35,000 a year for homeowners and $15,000 annually for renters, and half of Social Security income is excluded. Spouses, personal representatives or estates may also file rebate claims on behalf of claimants who lived at least one day in the claim year and meet all other eligibility criteria.
The maximum standard rebate is $650, but supplemental rebates for qualifying homeowners can boost rebates to $975.
The Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program is one of five programs supported by the Pennsylvania Lottery. Since the program’s 1971 inception, older and disabled adults have received more than $7.6 billion in property tax and rent relief. The rebate program also receives funding from slots gaming.
