There are two major components of the tax system: taxation and valuation. Our office establishes the assessed value of parcels of property in the township. Taxing authorities such as school districts and municipalities are responsible for the second major component of the tax system: Taxation. They levy (impose) taxes against the property values established by the assessor. Our staff will be happy to discuss concerns or questions you may have about the tax system.

Research Area

Our office maintains a research area for your convenience where you may review all public documents, including plat maps, sales documents and property record cards. In addition, we have available for you, free of charge, three helpful brochures: "A Taxpayers Guide to Property tax Relief," "For the Property Owner Who Wants to Know," and "Understanding Your Assessment.”



Senior Homestead Exemption PDF Print

 

REMINDER:

Senior Homestead Exemption:

Residents who receive the Senior Homestead Exemption DO NOT need to reapply each year. This has been in the news lately because of changes in Cook County, but in Lake County there is no requirement to reapply each year.

Senior Citizen Assessment Freeze:

Residents MUST reapply each year for the Senior Citizen Assessment Freeze. In the coming weeks, the Chief County Assessment Office will mail this application to all taxpayers receiving the Senior Homestead Exemption.
