20th Ward Property Tax Appeals


20th Ward Property Tax Appeals

Greetings!

Areas West of the (Lake Township) Dan Ryan in the 20th Ward are now open for appeals with the Cook County Board of Review through May 17, 2011. Neighborhoods in the 20th Ward that are included are Englewood and Back of the Yards. However, all City residents of the designated area are welcome.

In order to assist you and other 20th Ward homeowners, I have partnered with Cook County Board of Review Commissioner Larry R. Rogers, Jr. to host a property tax seminar on Saturday, May 14, 2011 At this seminar, homeowners can learn how to appeal their property assessment and potentially lower their property tax bills. The seminar on Saturday, May 14th will be held at 9:30 am - 11:30 am at Chicago Embassy Church located 5848 S. Princeton Avenue, Chicago, IL.

The presentation will explain how to file an appeal and how an appeal is granted.Attendees are asked to bring their property tax bills in order to more efficiently file an appeal. Staff from Commissioner Larry R. Roger's office will be available to answer questions and help complete appeal forms. The only requirement for a taxpayer to appeal a property assessment is a completed complaint form filed before the township appeal period closes on May 17, 2011.

Commissioner Rogers and I strongly encourage any Englewood and Back of the Yards property owners to attend this seminar and appeal your assessed property taxes. However, if you cannot attend it on May 14, please call me at 773-955-5610 or come into my office at 6357 S. Cottage Grove Avenue for assistance. You can also drop off your forms to my office until the morning of May 16 and we will be happy to turn them into the Board of Review for you.
