OF ASSESSMENTS IN ILLINOIS This is the fourth article in a series of six weekly releases for publication by the McHenry county supervisor of assess-; ments' office, to acquaint property owners with assessment procedures and practfces. Why Tax Rates Must Be Determined Each "tax district" has a definite geographic area of its own. It is the duty of the county Qjerk tp total the assessed Value to be found within each '"ix district" as previously (telp'mined by the township asseP|>rs and certified by the boara of.review.. This total figure of assessed value when divided into this 'tax district's" request for money icertified tax levy) produces what, is known as the tax rate for this specific district. j Example--$132,1000 tax levy --$10,000,000 assessed valuer- > $1,321) , ; • . j Tax rates are quoted in dpi- { lars, with the fractions carried \ to three deci mal places 1 ($1,321), as applied to each , $100 as assessed value. Example -- $10,000 assessed value x $1,321 tax rate to be collected for this one specific "tax district's" service. The geographic location of a specific property determines which combination of tax rates --possibly as many as 8--will apply to produce a tax bill. A tax rate may not remain the same for year to year since it is determined from two values thaft norrhally are changing annually. Different tax rates for districts furnishing like services does not necessarily reflect relative efficiency, but rather, a ratio of needed services to available property value.
