The City of Merriam will start accepting applications for its Franchise Fee Rebate Program on Monday, Feb. 3. 

Utility companies collect franchise fees from its customers throughout the year, and this program provides Merriam families –  whose income falls within the limits established by HUD – an opportunity to apply for refunds paid on electricity, gas, and telephone bills from 2019. 

Those interested should apply with our Community Development Department by May 1 and bring in all 2019 gas, electric, and landline telephone invoices along with proof of income for all household members. 

Please contact the Community Development Department at 913-322-5520 with any questions.
