Extended Hours Information During Appeals Process
To be determined after the 2017 McHenry Township Assessments are certified by the County and published in the Northwest Herald next fall.
Every year, property owners have the opportunity to appeal their assessment to the McHenry County Board of Review.

An appeal does not address the taxes on the property.

No appointment is necessary during these hours. You will be assisted on a first come, first served basis. Extended hours during this 30 day appeal time to offer assistance to property owners that want to file an appeal and need some assistance or just have questions about their assessment and/or the appeal process, but cannot make it in during regular business hours. Extended hours are by appointment only and must be scheduled at that time.
