Robinson Township, along the Pittsburgh airport corridor is one of the fastest growing communities in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Just minutes from downtown Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh International Airport, Robinson Township offers residents and businesses many outstanding amenities.

Robinson Township is home to first-class schools, higher education, shopping and dining, and sports and recreational facilities. New business growth lends itself to greater resources for employment opportunities and updated public transportation is accessible on major arteries and shopping centers.

The Homestead Act or "Act 50" Exclusion provides property tax relief to homeowners whose permanent residence is in a participating taxing jurisdiction. We often associate the word "homestead" with the times of the California Gold Rush, the Pony Express, the telegraph and the Transcontinental and Pacific Railroads. The Homestead Act has more modern day application, and you must register for the Exclusion as the first broad-based distribution of state gaming funds through the PA Tax Payer Relief Act will occur in 2009. Registered homeowners in the Montour School District can expect real estate tax relief in the amount of $124.00. The Homestead Exclusion is intended to ensure that real estate property tax reductions benefit the homeowner first and allows for the first $15,000 of their primary residence to be exempt from County taxes (saves about $40-50 per year). Many homeowners in our community are NOT registered. If you don't know if you are registered, go to the Allegheny Real Estate Assessment site here, locate your property and the bottom left it will indicate "yes" or "no" next to Homestead. If you are not registered, you can view and print a registration form and instructions here. The deadline for registering is March 1, for current year distributions -- and you only need to register once.
