According to property Tax Code (35ILCS 200/Art. 9 Div. 4 heading) all property in Moultrie County must be reviewed every four years.
The valuation of property shall be valued at 33.33% of its fair cash value. Township Assessors and the CCAO will be completing field work to obtain information needed to have accurate and fair valuation of property in Moultrie County.
This will require new photos to be taken of all property. The township assessors and CCAO may knock on residents’ doors to verify a demolition or new construction or other information needing to be corrected.
If no one is home, they will leave a door knocker giving information on how to contact them or the assessment office. The vehicles that they will be in will be marked with magnetic signs identifying who they are.
