Tax Assessor Frequently Asked Questions
Tax bills are sent out once a year as a courtesy. It is the homeowner's responsibility to make sure the taxes are paid. The Village is not responsible for clerical errors or those caused by taxpayers paying taxes on wrong property. If paid by check, receipt will not be valid if check is dishonored. SCHEDULE:

4. Can I appeal my property tax bill?
A tax appeal is not an appeal of your tax bill. The amount of taxes you pay is never an issue during an appeal because neither the Tax Assessor nor County Tax Board has control over budgets submitted by municipalities, schools, counties or fire districts.

5. Can I file my tax appeal form with the Tax Assessor’s Office?

6. I have not applied for a certificate of occupancy but I received an assessment notice.
Assessments cannot be avoided by delaying issuance of a certificate of occupancy. If the building is “substantially complete” it is subject to assessment.

7. I am appealing my assessment and I feel that I should not have to pay my taxes until my appeal is heard and resolved.
Payment of first quarter taxes and other municipal charges (e.g., water, sewer, etc.) is a prerequisite to the appeal process. Taxes and other municipal charges must be paid regardless if an appeal is pending.
