The White House responded to Newsradio 780's inquiry and issued this statement, "Rahm Emanuel has owned his home in Chicago for 11 years and has always paid his obligations promptly. He never received this particular bill, but today, the moment it was brought to his attention, he paid it in-full immediately."
Rahm Emanuel Pays Property Taxes After Inquiry
Steve Miller Reporting
(1 image)CHICAGO (WBBM) -- White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel was three months behind on his property tax payments until Newsradio 780 brought it to his attention.. SEE THE TAX BILL FROM TREASURER'S WEBSITE
Rahm Emanuel and his wife accumulated a $445.56 penalty for the payment delay on their four-bedroom Ravenswood home. On March 2, when property taxes were due, Emanuel owed about $7400.
Governor Pat Quinn, by the way, is up to date on his property taxes.
And Rahm Emanuel's boss - the President of the United States? Also up to date.
The treasurer's office says not quite 13.5 percent of homeowners in Cook County are delinquent on their taxes - up only slightly from previous years.

My taxes get paid quarterly out of escrow. I get delinquent notices twice a year because of how NY bills and my escrow pays. Ditto my homeowner's insurance. Travellers wants it in December, escrow pays it in January. Pain in the ass. Ask Boofer, he knows...being the piece of chickenshit that he is, he once posted on LP that I was delinquent one quarter.
==================================================== IMO, no American should have to pay property taxes, it is unconstitutional. Once you pay the purchase tax, that should be IT. Is Rahm trying to make a statement, or did he just get caught in the grinder?

How so? Property taxes were paid from the time land grants were made here.
