The Assessor is responsible for assessing property at one-third of market value or fair cash value with the exception of farmland, railroad or coal properties which are properties valued by the State of Illinois Department of Revenue. It is always encouraged and highly recommended to discuss your property assessment first and foremost with your local Assessor before ever filing with the Board of Review. Often times you will find that you can avoid the filing and preparation of evidence and taking time off of work to defend your assessment, when your Assessor can do it for you locally thereby, neither party will have to attend the formal hearing and prepare evidence that the Assessor’s office already has available to you. The Assessor is the only elected official with exception to your States’ Attorney that requires a formal education and 2-yr certification along with yearly continuing education and is working directly for you.

APRIL 2012
As your Township Assessor, it will be with sincere displeasure again to see tax bills in 2012 increase when property values continue to decline rapidly and your Assessor continues to reduce assessed values. Tax bills should be available on-line by the end of the month of April and in the mail by May 1, 2012. The Assessor determines the assessed valuation of all properties within a taxing district, not your tax bill so the question becomes, “Why did my tax bill go up this year if the Assessor reduced my value”? Check your tax rate from the previous year to your current tax bill, there is a great possibility your rate increased over the previous year. This is essentially the reason for elevated tax bills this year; your tax rate has increased over the previous year!
Property taxes are determined by the budgeting and spending functions of the local taxing bodies. Local tax districts set their budgets each year. Local governments use property tax revenues to pay for the services rendered to the residents in their district.
Local Tax Rate is determined by the combined spending of all taxing districts, including the county, the forest preserve district, townships, community colleges, schools, villages, fire districts, libraries, parks, etc. Each government prepares a budget, requests the revenues needed, and submits the request to the county clerk. The county clerk calculates the tax rate based on their requests. The local tax rate is then applied against all property assessments in the district to produce the Property Tax Amount for each property.
