The Board of Review is appointed by the County Board to serve as the
final authority on all tax assessments and to insure uniformity and
equitable property assessments. The Board of Review functions mainly
to:
Review the assessments of the property made by the Supervisor
of Assessments.
Correct, if necessary, any individual assessment, add property
to the tax roll and correct any names of taxpayers, property or
descriptions.
Grant tax exempt property status subject to the approval of the
Illinois Department of Revenue to any qualified property owner.
Hear all complaints and petitions regarding property assessments
and make final decisions on same. It is in this capacity that the
Board of Review adjusts property tax assessments if it deems such
action appropriate.
