City of Chicago
For Interest on Loans
Exact amount: $14,135,049.00
Calendar year 2026
The City's bond papers list every state (Illinois EPA) loan with its rate, last year and balance, but no paper prints each loan's payment for 2026, so the line is not split into loans. Interest here also covers the federal WIFIA loan (4.38%, $141.3M drawn at the end of 2025) and the PNC credit line, not only state loans. See the principal line for the loan-by-loan table.
This repays low-interest loans the City took from the State of Illinois (Illinois EPA) to fix water and sewer pipes. The State publishes each loan's rate and balance, which are shown beside this box, but not how much of each loan is paid this year, so it stays one total.
This box has no smaller boxes to open.
