Second Installment of Property Tax Bills Due Sept. 6

The second installment of your 2016 property tax bill is due Sept. 6. Please note you received one bill in May, and you will not receive another bill for the second installment.

Understanding Your Property Tax Bill

The property tax process can be confusing! You may have questions about what goes into determining your property tax bill, property assessments, how to file an appeal, and more. Learn more about the property tax process by visiting Lake County's property tax information web page.

Property Tax Dollar

Did you know Lake County only receives a small portion of your property tax payment (about 7%), and the rest is distributed to many other taxing districts?
