If your place of residence falls within park boundaries, a portion of your or your landlord’s real estate taxes go to the Salt Creek Park District.
In exchange, you may receive a discounted price for park district programs or on use of facilities, as well as the possibility of an earlier sign up date. You would be considered a non-resident at all other park districts.
If you reside in an unincorporated area and pay no park district taxes, you are considered a non-resident at all park districts. Your tax bill and your voter’s registration card indicate which, if any, park district receives tax dollars from you.
The Salt Creek Rural Park District encompasses the southeast corner of Palatine, a north central portion of Rolling Meadows and a small section in west central Arlington Heights. Refer to the map below.
