The Assessor does not assess taxes or property. The Assessor DOES appraise property and place values based upon formulas set by the Illinois Department of Revenue. Using these valuations, taxes are levied by local governments, collected by the Madison County Treasurer, and remitted back to fund local governmental districts and their programs. The mission statement of the Jarvis Township Assessor&#8217;s Office is to identify, update, and value all taxable property, in accordance to the Illinois state statutes in a fair, courteous, efficient, and uniform manner, for all constituents within our jurisdiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"171\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/jarvistownship.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Headshot_Pam.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-213\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pam Mumper, CIAO-I, Township Assessor<\/strong><br>Service from September 2025<br>Certified Illinois Assessing Officer<br>Phone: 618.667.3475<br>Fax: 618.667.2425<br>Email: assessor@jarvistownship.com<br><br><em>For more information on the tax cycle process:<\/em><br>Property Tax 101 Presentation<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"171\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/jarvistownship.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Headshot_Melissa.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-102\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Melissa Jenkins-Patton, CIAO, Chief Deputy&nbsp;Assessor<\/strong><br>Certified Illinois Assessing Officer<br>Email: deputyassessor@jarvistownship.com<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Services Available to Jarvis Taxpayers:<\/strong><br>FREE Notary Service<br>FREE Fax and Copy Service <br>(limited quantities apply)<br>Voter Registration<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.madisoncountyil.gov\/departments\/chief_county_assesment_office\/forms.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Homeowner\u2019s Exemptions &amp; Available Reductions<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.co.madison.il.us\/departments\/board_of_review\/appeal_forms_and_instructions.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Appeal Forms &amp; Instructions<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Other Helpful Links:<\/strong><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.co.madison.il.us\/departments\/chief_county_assesment_office\/frequently_asked_questions.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.co.madison.il.us\/document_center\/Board_Of_Review\/PUB13620.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Explanation of Property Assessment &amp; Equalization<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ptab.illinois.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Property Tax Appeal Board<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.co.madison.il.us\/departments\/chief_county_assesment_office\/madison_countys_real_estate_assessment_information_look-up.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Real Estate Assessment\/Tax Information Look-up<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.co.madison.il.us\/departments\/chief_county_assesment_office\/maps_and_plat\/index.php\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maps &amp; Plats<\/a><br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.co.madison.il.us\/treasurer_office\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Madison County Treasurer&#8217;s Office<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Office of Township Assessor is one of the most important and least understood of all township offices.
