The law. provides for the election of a township collector who establishes an office in the community where payment may be made most conveniently. . The present collector, Mr. Hoyt King, has his office in the First National Bank of Wilmette. Real estateMnd personal taxes collected by Mr. King are disbursed promptly (about April ^:l"',;S';;v:i$:! â- â€¢ S3i!tt; â- 'â- 'â- â€¢' -\ :...'â- .'â- V.-'Sit" M iceai estateMna personal taxes collected by Mr. . 1st), and directlyxto the taxing bodies, namely,: Village of Winnetka Village of Glencoe Village of Kenilworth Village of Wilmette Board of Education High School Glencoe Board of Education • Kenilworth Board of Education Wilmette Board of Education Kenilworth Park District Winnetka Board of Education Glencoe Park District Winnetka Park District Wilmette Park District New Trier Township Persons failing to pay their taxes to the collector during his collection period, are required to pay the county treasurer in Chicago, subjecting themselves, usually, to some inconve- nience, and, in case of oversight, to the danger of a penalty. Taxes so paid to the county treasurer do not reach the beneficiaries above named for about four months. Thifineans^ that your village, school board or park district is compelled to issue anticipation warrants, and pay interest on the same. ,% Again, the Township is, by statute, entitled to 2% on all moneys collected by Mr. King, the collector, in excess of $150,000. Last year this amounted to about $6,000.
