Welcome to the Madison County Treasurer's Office website. My goal in designing this site is to answer many of the taxpayers' most common questions. I have organized all information into the categories shown below. Click on one of the categories to begin your search. I hope you will find the information both informative and well organized.

The Office of the County Treasurer serves the dual functions of County Treasurer and the County Collector of funds. The County Treasurer has the responsibility to receive, invest, and safely keep the tax revenues and other public monies of the County. The Treasurer’s Office also engages in a comprehensive investment program for idle funds to earn additional revenue for the County; investment objectives include safety of principal, liquidity, and maximum rate of return. The Treasurer also is responsible for the disbursement of all County revenues as authorized by law or by the County Board.

The County Treasurer prepares all bills and receipts for the purposes of tax collection in Madison County. The office collects tax revenues on behalf of all taxing districts in the County, such as local governments, school districts and other taxing bodies and then disburses the revenues back to them. The Treasurer does not set tax rates or assesses property tax amounts. The County Treasurer also is required to receive and record the state mandated inheritance tax and must report and pay all inheritance tax collections to the Treasurer of the State of Illinois. The Treasurer is also responsible for reporting on the status of payment of delinquent property taxes and provides reports to the State of Illinois and the County Board on financial matters. The Treasurer’s Office maintains complete records of all the financial accounts of the County.
