Three of suburban Chicago’s 200 highest tax-paying commercial properties are in Kane County, according to a Local Government Information Services (LGIS) analysis of property tax data from the Cook County Treasurer. Collectively, these 5 properties contributed $4.80 million to Kane County’s public funds, which go towards municipal salaries and local school districts.
LGIS ranked the commercial properties in suburban Chicago that were billed the most in the 2015 tax year. The 200 highest-paying properties paid $441 million; Kane County made up just over 1 percent of this total.
Kane County -- along with every other Illinois county except Cook County -- assesses both commercial and residential properties at 33 percent of market value. Cook County is unique in that its commercial properties are capped at a 25 percent market value, while residential assessments are capped at 10 percent.
Algonquin Commons paid $1.7M in commercial property taxes last year, the most in Kane County.

That means Cook County commercial property taxpayers can pay more than double the taxes of residential properties with identical market values.
Algonquin Commons’ owners paid the most in Kane County last year at $1.72 million for the Algonquin property, or 35 percent of the total. Fisher Corporate Center in Elgin was billed at $1.68 million, followed by The Villages at Canterfield in West Dundee at $1.40 million.
