Offers an annual Utility Tax Relief Program for low-Income Burien households.   This program helps offset the impact of the City’s utility tax on telephone (not including cellular), cable television, and gas/electricity provided by Puget Sound Energy and solid waste and garbage provided by Recology CleanScapes.   Electricity, gas, solid waste and garbage: -  On behalf of eligible applicants, the city of Burien will contact Puget Sound Energy and Recology CleanScapes and have them take the utility tax charge off future bills. -  Adjustments are not retroactive. This tax relief is for the following year.   Telephone (not including cellular) and cable television:   -  Utility tax relief is available in the form of a reimbursement for taxes paid for a single residential telephone landline and for basic cable television services only.   -  Applications for this reimbursement cover taxes previously paid for the year. Checks will be mailed out by mid-February.
