Second Installment of Property Tax Bills Due September 2
The second installment of Lake County property
taxes is due Friday, September 2. Please note, you received one
bill in May and you will not receive another bill for the second
installment. If you have misplaced your second installment coupon, you can print a copy from the Treasurer's Office
website by entering your PIN or address.
Keep in mind, as you pay
your tax bill, Lake County only receives a small portion of your property tax payment (about 7%), and the rest is distributed to many other taxing districts.
Visit Lake County’s budget
page to see where
your Lake County tax dollars go.
