Coffee with the Assessor
Enjoy a meeting with Assessor Lawson! Come meet your Township Assessor John Lawson to learn about your property assessment or how to file appeals. The program allows township residents with five or more guests to host a private seminar/presentation with Assessor Lawson to discuss property tax-related issues, concerns or questions. The presentation can be held at a resident’s home (yard/patio), local library or in the local community. Some of the areas discussed are:
- What does the Assessor do and what services does his office provide to the residents?
- What are the appeal processes at the Cook County Assessor’s Office and the Cook County Board of Review? Why are appeals important?
- What is the Triennial and how does that impact my tax bill?
- Who decides the dollar amount of my property tax bill?
- Have I exhausted all my exemption options?
- Why is my second tax bill not 55% on my first?
- How do I change my name or address on my tax property bill?
- What can a resident do if his or her tax bill is incorrect when mailed by the Treasurer?
To host your own Coffee with the Assessor or for assistance regarding county-related questions, please call the Assessor’s Office at 847-884-0030 or email: vmorales@schaumburgtownship.org
