On November 3, 2026, voters in Tazewell County will vote on a 1% County Schools Facility Tax, also known as a one-cent tax. We’re excited to share our new video that explains the importance of this referendum and how it will improve educational support for students across our schools.

If approved, this referendum will provide critical funding to support school safety and security, improve facilities, and provide property tax protection through a new revenue source. The majority of revenue from this tax would be paid by visitors, not Tazewell County taxpayers, because a One-Cent Tax applies to anyone that makes qualifying purchases under current Illinois Law. Visitors that shop and dine in Tazewell County would contribute nearly 60% of this revenue.
