The Assessor certifies assessed valuations to all school districts, municipalities, and special districts. Those people eligible for exemptions are notified that they have received them. This is also the first day in which Writs of Certiorari and Small Claims Assessment Review (SCAR) petitions can be filed. The deadline for filing Writs of Certiorari and SCAR petitions is the last business day in April or within 30 days of Assessment Review Commission’s (ARC) decision. If ARC has not rendered a decision by April 1, a SCAR petition or Writ of Certiorari may be filed within 30 days after the decision.

The deadlines vary, so check with your village or city assessor or clerk for additional information.
