TAX SALE DELAY

A Cook County Circuit Court judge has postponed the Annual Tax Sale of delinquent properties scheduled to begin May 8, Treasurer Maria Pappas said in a statement. In an emergency motion, Pappas asked for the delay "to protect the health and safety of Cook County residents in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The judge granted the motion, postponing the tax sale until the court orders the sale to proceed."
