Pappas and ABC7 Chicago will collaborate to host the “Black and Latino Houses Matter” telephone bank on September 21.

Chicago (WLS) – Treasurer Maria Pappas and ABC 7 Chicago organized another “Black And Latino House Matter” phone bank on September 21, 2021 when Cook County owners found a refund. Apply for a property tax exemption to avoid sales taxes. “Since the launch of this program last year, we have repaid over $ 108 million, mostly in black and Latin areas,” Papas said today.

“Thanks to ABC7 for teaming up during Hispanic Heritage Month after finding out that taxpayers have about $ 17 million in debt since March,” Pappas said. “The tax sale has a disproportionate impact on black and Latin homeowners, but all Cook County homeowners are encouraged to call the telephone bank.”

The details of the telephone bank are as follows.

-Date: Tuesday September 21, 2021
-Time: 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
-Location: Cook County Finance Office
-Phone number: 312. 603. 5105
