I got my tax Cook County bill yesterday at my out of state address and it is DUE by August 1. It looks to be up about 16% Year-Over-Year. This bill is for 2015.
Only in Cook County can you get a tax bill for 2015 in the second half of 2016 that is due in 3 weeks! If it wasn’t for bad government, Chicago wouldn’t have any government at all.
3 weeks is outrageous. And I would bet they have the gall to state that there’s a hefty penalty for late payment.
