Palatine Township’s window for Property Tax Assessment Appeals is open

The Board of Review is Open for Pre-Filing Assessment Appeals and Flood Forms for Palatine Township residents. Commissioner George Cardenas and Palatine Township Announce a Tax Assessment Appeal Workshop on Oct 25th at Palatine Township Hall.

The Board of Review is open for pre-filing for Palatine Township and Suburban Cook taxpayers. Cook County Board of Review (BOR) Commissioner George Cardenas and Palatine Township Assessor Bill Pohlman have added an Assessment and Flooding Appeal workshop on Wednesday October 25th at 6:00 P.M. Taxpayers may appeal their assessment for free with the BOR every year. The BOR independently hears assessment appeals and has the authority to change assessments as a check and balance to the Cook County Assessor’s Office.

The workshop will be held at Palatine Township Hall (721 S Quentin Rd. Palatine) and will provide an opportunity for homeowners to appeal their property assessment and flooding damage and potentially lower their property tax bills. For tax year 2021, 537,000 of Cook County’s 1.8 million Property Index Numbers (PINs) were appealed and 51 percent of individual residential filers saw reductions in their assessments. The only requirement for a taxpayer to appeal a property assessment is a completed complaint form filed before the township appeal period closes. Taxpayers will also have the option of filing a complaint online at www.CookCountyBoardofReview.com.
