Need Help Understanding Your Property Assessment?

Mark Your Calendar and Attend a Tax Assessment Help Center

Lake County residents will be receiving their blue assessment notices over the next few months. To help residents understand their assessments, the Chief County Assessment Office is holding a series of Tax Assessment Help Centers.

Chief County Assessment Office staff will work one-on-one with taxpayers to assist them in understanding the assessment valuation process, their new property tax assessment, and their options in assessment valuation appeals at 14 Help Centers in Grayslake, Vernon Hills and Waukegan during the months of August through October.

The first two help centers will take place August 18 and August 19:

Wednesday, August 18, 5 - 8 p.m.

University Center of Lake County, Grayslake

Thursday, August 19, 4 - 7 p.m.

Lake County Administration Building - 7th Floor, Waukegan

"When property assessment notices are distributed, many residents do not understand what the assessment notice means or how they should evaluate their property tax valuation. We want to answer questions and provide property owners an opportunity to learn about how their property assessment valuation is determined, their role in the tax process and how to evaluate the appropriateness of a property's assessed value," explained Chief County Assessment Officer Marty Paulson.
