Finding the Last Known EAV Prior to Exemption (Base Year EAV)

​

SSMMA and the Cook County Treasurer's Office have compiled a spreadsheet of historic EAVs for parcels that meet the basic eligibility requirements for the incentive at the time of publication.

​​​​

• Base Year EAVs for Eligible Parcels (September 2022)

  • Search for the parcel by PIN (do not use dashes) using CTRL+F.

  • For the calculator, enter the green number from Column C ("Last EAV") into Cell C7.

 

The data provided in the table below for Base Year EAV ("Last EAV") has been collected and provided by Cook County Treasurer’s Office and can be used for abatement purposes related to Southland Reactivation Act only.
