McLean County Property Tax Assessments - 9/24 Deadline to Appeal
The new property tax assessments were published in The Pantagraph the other day (check with the article or with your local assessor to verify your township status). Every year we get calls, particularly in January and when the new tax bills go out in the spring, about this. Assessments can ONLY be challenged within 30 days of public notice, so the deadline is September 24! Please share this and let folks know, anyone whose tax bill/assessment is out of whack has a very short time window to appeal (even if you don't get anything in the mail, printing this in the paper is legally all the notice they have to give you). If you wait until the actual bill comes out, that is too late!! Any questions call my office or see https://www.mcleancountyil.gov/index.aspx?NID=76 .

9 年I would call your assessor's office and at least let them know how you feel. They will sometimes make adjustments from there, or if you feel like they are not listening to you, it doesn't hurt to fill out the form and try to contest it.

9 年Thanks Nathan. I was thinking about appealing this year. Our appraised value is pretty high.
