(35 ILCS 200/9-85)
Sec. 9-85.
Revision of assessments by county assessor and board of
review;
counties of 3,000,000
or more. In counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, the county assessor
shall have authority annually to revise the assessment books and correct them
as appears to be just; and on complaint in writing in proper form by any
taxpayer, and after affording the taxpayer an opportunity to be heard thereon,
he or she shall do so at any time, until the assessment is verified. An entry
upon the assessment books does not constitute an assessment until the
assessment is verified. When a notice is to be mailed under Section 12-55 and
the address that appears on the assessor's records is the address of a mortgage
lender or the trustee, where title to the property is held in a land trust, or
in any event whenever the notice is mailed by the assessor to a taxpayer at or
in care of the address of a mortgage lender or a trustee where the title to the
property is held in a land trust, the mortgage lender or the trustee within 15
days of the mortgage lender's or the trustee's receipt of such notice shall
mail a copy of the notice to each mortgagor of the property referred to in the
notice at the last known address of each mortgagor as shown on the records of
the mortgage lender, or to each beneficiary as shown on the records of the
trustee.
All changes and alterations pursuant to Section 16-95 or Section 16-120 in
the assessment
of
property shall be subject
to
revision and entry into the assessment books by the board of appeals (until
the first Monday in December 1998 and the board of review beginning the
first Monday in December 1998 and thereafter) in the same manner
as the original assessments.
