Cheatham said last year's average refund was $380 and described eligibility requirements: residents must own and live in their home, be current on property taxes, and meet HUD's low-income limits (for example, $63,500 for a single person and $90,700 for a family of four as cited in staff remarks). Help sessions will be available and applications are due July 15; rebate checks are expected to be mailed in August.
