APPEALS
Appeals relating to real estate assessments must be filed on the form provided by the Board
of Review. All applicable items on the appeal form must be completed. The Board of
Review office will not send forms out by Overnight Express, fax machine or any method other
than first class mail. Appeal forms and/or evidence will not be accepted by fax or email. Forms
are available over the internet at General questions can be answered
by office staff via telephone or emailed to this office at BoardofReview@co.lake.il.us.
The second page of the Residential Appeal Form is a Residential Comparison Grid. The Board of
Review feels this is a useful tool for taxpayers to substantiate their claim of over-assessment.
Also included is an instruction sheet to assist in completing the Residential Comparison Grid.
The Board requires written evidence of authority for individuals to represent taxpayers for each
applicable year. Upon request, a form will be mailed to you and it is available on the internet at
If an owner has granted authorization by signing the
appeal form, the authorization form is not necessary.
If an appeal deals with the land and building(s) on one permanent index number as separate
issues, they are nevertheless to be filed on one appeal form. When an appellant states that their
appeal is only on the land or building(s), be advised the Board of Review will make their decision
by evaluating the total assessment, not just that part being objected to.
REDUCTIONS OF $100,000 OR MORE IN ASSESSED VALUATION - Pursuant to Chapter
35, Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS), Act 200/§16-55, if an appellant is requesting a reduction in
assessed valuation of $100,000 or more, it is required that the Board notify each respective taxing
district. It is therefore required that appellants supply their requested assessment total in the
appropriate space on the appeal form. If this information is not provided the Board will assume
the requested reduction is less than $100,000 and will only consider a reduction of less than that
amount.
A taxing body wishing to intervene in a matter before the Board must file a Request to Intervene
with the Board of Review at least five days in advance of the scheduled hearing. This form is
available in the Board office and online at
Any evidence of market value being presented by the taxing district needs to be supplied to the
Assessor, the appellant and the Board of Review prior to the hearing.
