If taxes are not paid on time, taxpayers must pay a 1.5 percent penalty per month until paid or sold. Payments may be made from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays in the treasurer's office at the County Office Building, 1504 3rd Ave., Rock Island. County offices will be closed for Veterans Day on Tuesday, Nov. 11.
The Assessor does not levy a tax, but rather places a value on assesses all property for tax purposes, appraising it at its fair market value. The Rock Island County Clerk compiles a list of all lands and lots to be assessed, including those which are taxable, or which have become taxable for the first time. These lists are conveyed to the Township Assessors through the Chief County Assessment Office. The Assessor must then determine the market value of all taxable property and assess that property at one-third (1/3) of its market value.
