Mailing of the remaining tax codes in the four townships and all bills in Algonquin and Nunda townships is indefinite. "We will make further announcements to the taxpaying public as soon as some advice is received from Lake County officials regarding their values, and from the Illinois Department of Local Government Affairs regarding County values," Mrs. Walgenbach said.
