Pritzker Says New Budget Can Pave Way for Lower Local Taxes

The recently passed state budget can achieve some relief of local taxes according to Democrat Governor JB Pritzker. He says it’s not as simple as just issuing a property tax freeze to save homeowners money because so many parts of local government use property taxes to fund local needs. 


Pritzker notes as the state steps forward and pays its share for a number of services - that can give local leaders the ability to change the way they tax.

 

 

Pritzker says there is a task force that is meeting right now to discuss what can be done moving forward to give property tax relief.
