Important information for all residents.

Townships are in the process of posting their assessments.

This year and going forward, McHenry County properties that are only adjusted by their equalization factor will no longer receive a mailed copy of their assessment. Property owners are encouraged to sign up for email and text alerts to be informed when their township assessments are posted online - you can do so by visiting the Assessments page on the County website.

Property owners may access their assessment by visiting the McHenry County Property Tax Inquiry Portal at https://mchenryil.devnetwedge.com. Assessment notices on computers and tablets can be accessed by clicking the “Property Assessments Notice” link on the right-hand side of your property tax information. On smart phones, the Assessments tab can be found by clicking the three-line “hamburger” icon in the upper right-hand corner.

Remember that your assessment notice is not a property tax bill – your 2026 assessment is used to determine the taxable value of your home for property taxes due next year. The notice also includes information on your existing exemptions, and it lists other available exemptions.

Monday morning is starting to set up to be a snowy mess. Higher accumulations now accompanied with blowing wind is looking like a realistic scenario. Traveling Monday morning will require great care. Treat tomorrow like the first snow of the winter. Roads will not have any pretreatment or residual salt left after the rain. Slower speeds and greater stopping distance will be required. Our team will be out Monday morning working on this snowy surprise

Vehicle Emission Testing and License Plate Stickers are coming to town!
On Saturday 2-21-26 between 9am and 4pm you can come to the Richmond Township @ 7812 Route 31 (just south of the high school ) and have your vehicle emissions tested. For many in the township this is required every 2 years.
Even if you are not required to test you have the opportunity to renew your license plate sticker here at this event as well.
This event is in partnership with the Illinois Air Team and will be hosted again in May, July, and December at our facilities.

Today our employees worked through the cold to push the snow back and prevent drifting onto the roadway. When the wind blows across many of the open fields through our township snow drifts can blow across the roads. Even though the snow stopped days ago our efforts continue daily to ensure our roadways remain as clean as possible.
(As you can see only a few inches of snow fall can create feet of snow in drift prone areas)
