RE Exemptions: Recently created Public Act 102-895 makes changes to a couple homestead exemption amounts, but only in the Collar Counties (DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will); and the new exemption amounts will NOT BE ON TAX BILLS UNTIL 2024. For Joliet Township residents, the General Homestead Exemption will increase from 6,000 to 8,000. Additionally, the Senior Citizen Homestead Exemption will increase from 5,000 to 8,000. Both increases will be for the 2023 assessment year payable in 2024.
