Commercial Property Tax Trends in Stickney Township


• Special Industrial Improvement (↑ 358.7%)

Major facility upgrades—new machinery pits, reinforced flooring, and utility overhauls—drove this unprecedented jump. If your plant didn’t undergo those renovations, you can present construction timelines and permits to contest this spike.


• Ancillary Structures (↑ 144.5%)

Expanded loading docks, signage installations, and fencing projects inflated values. Provide contractor invoices and site plans to distinguish genuine improvements from over-valued add-ons.


• Industrial Minor Improvement (↑ 133.9%)

Smaller manufacturing units, like paint booths or minor office build-outs, saw steep revaluations. Detailed cost records can help push back on blanket percentage hikes.


• Theatre Property (↑ 88.2%) & Bowling Alley (↑ 88.0%)

Entertainment venues underwent significant reassessments, tied to seating expansions and AV system installations. Use industry-standard income and expense reports to argue for a more accurate valuation.


• Supermarket (↑ 10.9%)

Grocery stores showed modest increases, reflecting shelf-stocking equipment and cooler replacements. Present depreciation schedules and utility-usage data to ensure only warranted assets are assessed.


Other specialized parcels (e.g., car washes, self-storage) remained largely stable, offering fewer appeal opportunities but still warranting review if your records indicate otherwise.

Why Appeal Now


• Avoid Overpayment:

With some classes experiencing increases of over 300%, unchecked increases can compound into significant tax liabilities.

• Deadline Is Crucial:

The July 25 cut-off is firm—miss it, and you waive your right to contest the 2025 assessments.

• Targeted Appeals Win:

Understanding class-specific drivers lets you build stronger, evidence-based cases that the assessor’s Office must take seriously.
