Letter From Taxpayer

Dear Commissioner Patlak,

It is with deep appreciation that I am writing this letter to say THANK YOU for coming out to New Trier Township last night to explain what the Board of Review does, the grounds for appeal and property tax exemptions to the home owners.

It was my first time attending this kind of hearing and meeting on property tax. It was not only an eye- opening experience for me, but an educational one. Thank you so very much for taking your time to meet all of us. Thank you for offering your expertise on the subjects and for providing answers to all the questions from the audience.

I would also like to mention that the other three staff members of the Board of Review were genuine and helpful at the end of the meeting. Today I received an email from the Board of Review that acknowledged the receipt of my complaint, which made me feel hopeful that the Board is caring about people's needs and that the Board is highly efficient with today's technologies.

Thank you very much for the good work you have done. Your leadership to the Board of Review will make it a fine government to the people in the Township.

Sincerely Yours,
Lucinda Yang
