Wheeling Township Seniors Invited to Tax Appeal Seminar

Cook County Board of Review Commissioner Dan Patlak will hold a property tax appeal seminar to senior taxpayers in Wheeling Township seeking to appeal their 2012 property tax assessments. 

The seminar, which begins at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 25 at the Wheeling Senior Center, 199 N. First St., is co-sponsored by the Wheeling Senior Commission. The hour-long session will educate taxpayers on how to file a successful tax appeal in a time when the economy is putting added pressures to home and business owners. 

Patlak will explain how property taxes are calculated and the appeal procedure of the Board of Review. Before the end of the evening, taxpayers will have an opportunity to work with staff from the Board of Review to address their specific questions and concerns.

This event is free to the public and there is no fee to appeal at the Board of Review. 

Taxpayers are asked to bring a copy of their most recent tax bill.
