I also went downtown last year to file an appeal (can't remember the term off hand) and they were fabulous and got me an almost $800 refund. Remember many of these city staffers own and pay taxes too. It's not like they are tax exempt. From what I can tell, everyone wants lower property taxes, including those I've received help from and I have always received great service and help.nmfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17817881563860973320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1957537260422450632.post-75764298056988917322009-08-13T16:46:22.147-05:002009-08-13T16:46:22.147-05:00Of course they have to keep jacking up our propert...Of course they have to keep jacking up our property taxes to make up for the millions in property taxes pouring into Daley's TIF bank account. <br /><br />Wilson Yard is devouring 68% of our property tax money this year.

They are adverse parties!! Whose bright idea is that? <br /><br />Lets see, you owe me money, so I am going to help you figure out how you can get away with paying me less.
