Pappas said owners of taxable property should pay before the due date to avoid interest of 1.5 percent per month for late payment.  On-time payments can be made:

• Online at cookcountytreasurer.com
• At some 400 Chase Bank locations in Illinois
• From a checking or savings account at more than 200 participating community banks
• By mail with a U.S. postmark no later than August 1, 2016
