School board member Jennifer Custer: Blame county’s delayed property tax bills for CPS financial woes, not the state – Chicago Tribune*
Last year alone, the five-month delay of the 2025 second installment of taxes cost CPS about 30 million, or approximately 220,000 per day at the peak. ... The delays since 2020 have cost the district a total of over 80 million. And this cost will grow further because of another anticipated two-month delay for the 2026 second-installment property tax bills, which are being shifted from Aug. 1 to October.
