Opinion: Berkeley homeowners may be eligible for a property tax refund

Berkeley’s taxes for libraries, parks, schools, paramedics, fire services, etc. are some of the highest in the region. This tax burden can be difficult for a variety of homeowners, and especially for fixed-income seniors. Fortunately, it is possible to get a refund of some of the city taxes if you have an income of under $52,200.00 a year. A refund for schools’ taxes is available for income-qualified and people over age 65. If you are not low-income and over 65 but have an inaccurate tax bill, you may also be entitled to a refund and correction. Checking the city’s arithmetic can be a worthwhile effort.
