New fee schedule to take effect May 9 at La Salle County Recorder’s Office

La Salle County residents are advised that a new fee schedule takes effect May 9 at the La Salle County Recorder of Deeds.

In a news release, Recorder Karen Miller said her office will be amending the predictable fee schedule, effective May 9, in order to meet the requirements of Public Act 103-0884, which reads “if a county has previously adopted an ordinance or resolution adopting a predictable fee schedule, the county must adopt an ordinance or resolution revising that predictable fee schedule to be consistent with 55 ILCS 5/3-5018.2.”

As a matter of compliance with the new law, all-inclusive fees have been established for eight classes, including standard classes deeds, leases, mortgages and easements, and nonstandard classes miscellaneous documents and plats.
