A Message from McHenry County about property tax assessment notices.
On March 18, 2026, the McHenry County Board passed a resolution rescinding the 1994 resolution that
authorized the Supervisor of Assessments (SOA) to mail assessment notices to all parcels in the county.
Assessment notices will still be mailed to parcels we are legally obligated to notify—revaluations,
farmland, and new construction. However, parcels receiving only equalization adjustments will no longer
receive assessment notices by mail.
The SOA will continue to generate all assessment notices and has developed a method to easily retrieve
them from the Treasurer’s website. Moving forward for 2026, digital assessment notices will be uploaded
at the same time township changes are published in the newspaper, commencing the 30-day review and
complaint period for that area.
We will communicate relevant dates, complaint deadlines, and filing instructions on the main assessment
website. We will also use existing communication methods to keep our constituents informed
https://www.mchenrycountyil.gov/departments/assessments This change will conservatively save the county
over $65,000 per year. Any questions from the public should be directed to [email protected]
or call (815) 334-4290.
For additional information about this or other property tax questions the Richmond Township Assessor Office is available anytime at

The West Solon Road bridge is scheduled to be replaced in the summer of 2026. The road will be closed to all traffic before the bridge on both sides of the creek during the project. Ahead of the full closure the roadway will be closed occasionally from 8am-3pm for preparation work. Please watch for signs of closure. Scheduled closures will be posted by orange signs ahead of the closure date. Residents will have access to their homes during this project by accessing West Solon Road from the respective side of the creek their house is on. Emergency services and the 911 call center are notified of all closures.
