Patlak will explain how property taxes are calculated and the appeal procedure of the Board of Review. Board of Review staff will be present to answer taxpayers’ questions. 

“This is a great, local opportunity for everyone to learn how to file free tax appeals,” McLaughlin said. “We’ll have staff from the Board of Review on hand to answer specific questions about tax bills and explain how to appeal them,” the mayor added.
