Assessor Rueckert's Office Helps with Reassessment Complaints
The Cook County Assessor has mailed triennial reassessment notices to Maine township residents. Residents who believe they are being unfairly assessed must file an appeal prior to May 20, 2013. Homeowners may now file appeals online at the Cook County Assessor's website.
Maine Township assessor Tom Rueckert and his staff are available at the Maine Township Town Hall, 1700 Ballard Road, Park Ridge, from 9 AM to 4 PM, Monday through Friday, to help residents file appeals. All appeals filed with the township office must be submitted by May 13, which is one week prior to the deadline, therefore allowing sufficient processing time with Cook County.
If residents are condominium owners, it is best to check with the Condo Association first to see if they are filing a group appeal. It is more advantageous to file as an association.
