The bond or undertaking and such securities shall be conditioned for the return of the moneys deposited in conformity with the terms of the deposit.

The Board shall consist of 9 voting members who are residents of this State and are appointed by the Governor, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, and one voting member who is a student at Northeastern Illinois University. The student member shall be elected by a campus-wide election of all students of the University. The student member shall serve a term of one year beginning on July 1 of each year, except that the student member initially selected under this amendatory Act of the 91st General Assembly shall serve a term beginning on the date of his or her selection and expiring on the next succeeding June 30. A student member may serve only for one term. To be eligible to remain as a student member of the Board, the student member must be a resident of this State, must have and maintain a grade point average that is equivalent to at least 2.5 on a 4.0 scale, and must be a full time undergraduate student enrolled at all times during his or her term of office except for that part of the term which follows the completion of the last full regular semester of an academic year and precedes the first full regular semester of the succeeding academic year at the university (sometimes commonly referred to as the summer session or summer school). If a student member serving on the Board fails to continue to meet or maintain the residency, minimum grade point average, or enrollment requirement established by this Section, his or her membership on the Board shall be deemed to have terminated by operation of law. If any member of the Board appointed by the Governor fails to continue to meet or maintain the residency requirement established by this Section, he or she shall resign membership on the Board within 30 days thereafter and, failing submission of this resignation, his or her membership on the Board shall be deemed to have terminated by operation of law.

If the Senate is not in session on the effective date of this Article, or if a vacancy in an appointive membership occurs at a time when the Senate is not in session, the Governor shall make temporary appointments to fill the vacancy. Members with these temporary appointments shall be deemed qualified to serve upon appointment and shall continue to serve until the next meeting of the Senate when the Governor shall appoint persons to fill such memberships, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, for the remainder of their respective terms. No more than 5 of the members appointed by the Governor shall be affiliated with the same political party. Each member appointed by the Governor must be a resident of this State.

In addition, in those polling places where in-precinct counting equipment is utilized, the judges of election shall make an operational check of the automatic tabulating equipment before the opening of the polls. Either instructions for activating the precincts program memory medium or a precinct identification card provided by the election authority shall be entered into the automatic tabulating equipment to ensure that the totals are all zeroes in the count column on the printing unit. Pollwatchers as provided by law shall be permitted to closely observe the judges in these procedures and to periodically inspect the equipment when not in use by the voters to see that the ballot labels are in proper position and have not been marked upon or mutilated. (Source: P.A. 82-1014.) (10 ILCS 5/24A-9) (from Ch. 46, par. 24A-9) Sec. 24A-9. Prior to the public test, the election authority shall conduct an errorless pre-test of the automatic tabulating equipment and program to ascertain that they will correctly count the votes cast for all offices and all measures. On any day not less than 5 days prior to the election day, the election authority shall publicly test the automatic tabulating equipment and program to ascertain that they will correctly count the votes cast for all offices and on all measures. Public notice of the time and place of the test shall be given at least 48 hours prior thereto by publication once in one or more newspapers published within the election jurisdiction of the election authority if a newspaper is published therein, otherwise in a newspaper of general circulation therein. Timely written notice stating the date, time and location of the public test shall also be provided to the State Board of Elections. The test shall be open to representatives of the political parties, the press, representatives of the State Board of Elections, and the public. The test shall be conducted by processing a preaudited group of ballots so punched or marked as to record a predetermined number of valid votes for each candidate and on each measure, and shall include for each office one or more ballots which have votes in excess of the number allowed by law in order to test the ability of the automatic tabulating equipment to reject such votes. Such test shall also include the use of precinct header cards or
[May 8, 2002] 28 precinct program memory medium and may include the production of an edit listing. In those election jurisdictions where in-precinct counting equipment is utilized, a public test of both such equipment and program shall be conducted as nearly as possible in the manner prescribed above. The State Board of Elections may select as many election jurisdictions as the Board deems advisable in the interests of the election process of this State in which to order a special test of the automatic tabulating equipment and program prior to any regular election. The Board may order a special test in any election jurisdiction where, during the preceding twelve months, computer programming errors or other errors in the use of electronic voting systems resulted in vote tabulation errors. Not less than 30 days prior to any election, the State Board of Elections shall provide written notice to those selected jurisdictions of their intent to conduct a test. Within 5 days of receipt of the State Board of Elections' written notice of intent to conduct a test, the selected jurisdictions shall forward to the principal office of the State Board of Elections a copy of all specimen ballots. The State Board of Elections' tests shall be conducted and completed not less than 2 days prior to the public test utilizing testing materials supplied by the Board and under the supervision of the Board, and the Board shall reimburse the election authority for the reasonable cost of computer time required to conduct the special test. After an errorless test, materials used in the public test, including the program, if appropriate, shall be sealed and remain so until the test is run again on election day. If any error is detected, the cause therefor shall be ascertained and corrected and an errorless public test shall be made before the automatic tabulating equipment is approved. Each election authority shall file a sealed copy of each tested program to be used within its jurisdiction at an election with the State Board of Elections prior to the election. The Board shall secure the program or programs of each election jurisdiction so filed in its office for the 60 days following the canvass and proclamation of election results. Upon the expiration of that time, if no election contest or appeal therefrom is pending in an election jurisdiction, the Board shall return the sealed program or programs to the election authority of the jurisdiction. Except where in-precinct counting equipment is utilized, the test shall be repeated immediately before the start of the official count of the ballots, in the same manner as set forth above. After the completion of the count, the test shall be re-run using the same program. An election jurisdiction that was employing, as of January 1, 1983, an electronic voting system that, because of its design, is not technically capable of compliance with such a post-tabulation testing requirement shall satisfy the post-tabulation testing requirement by conducting the post-tabulation test on a duplicate program until such electronic voting system is replaced or until November 1, 1992, whichever is earlier. Immediately thereafter the ballots, all material employed in testing the program and the program shall be sealed and retained under the custody of the election authority for a period of 60 days. At the expiration of that time the election authority shall destroy the voted ballot cards, together with all unused ballots returned from the precincts. Provided, if any contest of election is pending at such time in which such ballots may be required as evidence and such election authority has notice thereof, the same shall not be destroyed until after such contest is finally determined. If the use of back-up equipment becomes necessary, the same testing required for the original equipment shall be conducted. (Source: P.A. 86-873; 86-874; 86-1028; 87-1052.) (10 ILCS 5/24A-10.1) (from Ch. 46, par. 24A-10.1) Sec. 24A-10.1. In an election jurisdiction where in-precinct automatic tabulating counting equipment is utilized, the following procedures for counting and tallying the ballots set forth in this Section and in Section 24A-14 shall apply: (a) Voter ballot insertion during poll hours. (1) The in-precinct automatic tabulating equipment shall be set to count each ballot for candidates and for or against
29 [May 8, 2002] propositions to be voted upon as the ballot is inserted into the automatic tabulating equipment, and the equipment shall internally tally accurate vote totals for all such candidates and for and against all such propositions. Before the opening of the polls and before ballots are entered into the counting equipment, the judges of election shall turn on the automatic tabulating equipment, activate the precinct program memory medium, and verify that the public counter is set at zero. (2) After the polls have been declared open, each ballot shall be inserted into the automatic tabulating equipment by the voter immediately after the voter has completed marking his or her ballot and placing it in a security envelope or sleeve. The ballot shall be inserted into the automatic tabulating equipment from within the security envelope or sleeve without public observation of the votes cast on the ballot. The judges of election shall not handle any voted ballot except as provided in this Code for uninitialed, spoiled, and defective and damaged ballots. Each voted ballot shall be deposited into a secure ballot box immediately after it has been counted by the automatic tabulating equipment. (3) The automatic tabulating equipment shall be set to automatically return to the voter any ballot on which the number of votes for an office or proposition exceeds the number of votes that the voter is entitled to cast. If the voter, after being informed that an overvote has occurred, determines to have the ballot counted despite containing an overvote, the automatic tabulating equipment shall be set to accept the ballot and count the votes for or against propositions and for candidates for offices for which there is no overvote. (4) The automatic tabulating equipment shall be set to return any ballot that is damaged or defective and cannot properly be read by the automatic tabulating equipment. The ballot shall be marked "Spoiled Ballot", initialed by all judges immediately under the words "Spoiled Ballot", and not counted. The judges shall initial and issue a new ballot to the voter in lieu of the original "Spoiled Ballot" and the voter shall then be permitted to vote the new ballot. (5) Immediately after the closing of the polls and after the insertion of absentee ballots entitled to be counted, the automatic tabulating equipment shall be locked against further processing of ballots and the vote totals shall be displayed and read. (6) Throughout the election day and before the close of the polls, no person shall be permitted to check for vote totals for any candidate or proposition on the automatic tabulating equipment. However, any voter, judge of election, or poll watcher may examine the number of counted ballots shown on the public counter of the automatic tabulating equipment when the polls are open. During the time that polling places are open for voting, no person may reset the equipment for re-insertion of ballots except upon the specific authorization of the election authority; the automatic tabulating equipment shall be programmed to prevent such re-insertion unless provided a code by an authorized representative of the election authority. If the automatic tabulating equipment becomes inoperative during voting hours, until such time as it is repaired and restarted by a representative of the election authority, the voters shall deposit their voted ballots into the secure portion of the supply carrier case or other secure ballot container supplied by the election authority and the judges of election shall open the container used for this purpose only after the close of the polls and shall then insert each of the deposited ballots into the automatic tabulating equipment to be tallied. (b) Procedures after the close of the polls. (1) Immediately after the closing of the polls, the absentee ballots delivered to the precinct judges of election by the election authority shall be examined to determine that such ballots comply with Sections 19-9 and 20-9 of this Act and are entitled to
[May 8, 2002] 30 be deposited in the ballot box; those entitled to be deposited in the ballot box shall be initialed by the precinct judges of election and deposited in the ballot box. Those not entitled to be deposited in the ballot box shall be marked "Rejected" and disposed of as provided in said Sections 19-9 and 20-9. (2) The precinct judges of election shall open the ballot box and count the number of ballots therein to determine if such number agrees with the number of voters voting as shown by the automatic tabulating equipment, by the public counter on the automatic tabulating equipment where available, and by applications for ballot. or, If the same do not agree, the judges of election shall make such ballots agree with the applications for ballot in the manner provided by Section 17-18 of this Code Act. (3) The judges of election shall then examine all ballot cards and ballot card envelopes which are in the ballot box to determine whether the ballot cards and ballot card envelopes contain the initials of a precinct judge of election. If any ballot card or ballot card envelope is not initialed, it shall be marked on the back "Defective", initialed as to such label by all judges immediately under the word "Defective" and not counted. The judges of election shall place an initialed blank official ballot card in the place of the defective ballot card, so that the count of the ballot cards to be counted on the automatic tabulating equipment will be the same, and each "Defective Ballot" card and "Replacement" card shall contain the same serial number which shall be placed thereon by the judges of election, commencing with number 1 and continuing consecutively for the ballots of that kind in that precinct. The original "Defective" card shall be placed in the "Defective Ballot Envelope" provided for that purpose. (4) When an electronic voting system is used which utilizes a ballot card, before separating the remaining ballot cards from their respective covering envelopes or sleeves, the judges of election shall examine the ballot cards, ballot card envelopes, ballot card stubs, or security sleeves for write-in votes. When the voter has cast a write-in vote, the judges of election shall compare the write-in vote with the votes on the ballot card to determine whether such write-in results in an overvote for any office unless the automatic tabulating equipment has already done so. In case of an overvote for any office, the judges of election, consisting in each case of at least one judge of election of each of the 2 major political parties, shall make a true duplicate ballot of all votes on such ballot card except for the office which is overvoted, by using the ballot label booklet of the precinct and one of the marking devices of the precinct so as to transfer all votes of the voter, except for the office overvoted, to a duplicate card. The original ballot card and envelope upon which there is an overvote shall be clearly labeled "Overvoted Ballot", and each such "Overvoted Ballot" as well as its "Replacement" shall contain the same serial number which shall be placed thereon by the judges of election, commencing with number 1 and continuing consecutively for the ballots of that kind in that precinct. The "Overvoted Ballot" card and ballot envelope shall be placed in an envelope provided for that purpose labeled "Duplicate Ballot" envelope, and the judges of election shall initial the "Replacement" ballot cards and shall place them with the other ballot cards to be counted on the automatic tabulating equipment. Envelopes, ballot cards, ballot card stubs, or security envelopes or sleeves containing write-in votes marked in the place designated therefor and containing the initials of a precinct judge of election and not resulting in an overvote and otherwise complying with the election laws as to marking shall be counted and tallied and their votes recorded on a tally sheet provided by the election authority. The ballot cards and ballot card envelopes or sleeves shall be separated in preparation for counting by the automatic tabulating equipment provided for that purpose by the election authority. (5) After closing the polls and examining the absentee
31 [May 8, 2002] ballots pursuant to subsection (c)(1) of this Section, the judges of election shall insert into the automatic tabulating equipment all absentee ballots entitled to be counted. Thereafter, the judges of election shall generate vote totals for all candidates and propositions. Before the ballots are entered into the automatic tabulating equipment, a precinct identification card provided by the election authority shall be entered into the device to ensure that the totals are all zeroes in the count column on the printing unit. A precinct judge of election shall then count the ballots by entering each ballot card into the automatic tabulating equipment, and if any ballot or ballot card is damaged or defective so that it cannot properly be counted by the automatic tabulating equipment, the judges of election, consisting in each case of at least one judge of election of each of the 2 major political parties, shall make a true duplicate ballot of all votes on such ballot card by using the ballot label booklet of the precinct and one of the marking devices of the precinct. The original ballot or ballot card and envelope shall be clearly labeled "Damaged Ballot" and the ballot or ballot card so produced shall be clearly labeled "Duplicate Damaged Ballot", and each shall contain the same serial number which shall be placed thereon by the judges of election, commencing with number 1 and continuing consecutively for the ballots of that kind in the precinct. The judges of election shall initial the "Duplicate Damaged Ballot" ballot or ballot cards and shall enter the duplicate damaged cards into the automatic tabulating equipment. The "Damaged Ballot" cards shall be placed in the "Duplicated Ballots" envelope; after all ballot cards have been successfully read, the judges of election shall check to make certain that the last number printed by the printing unit is the same as the number of voters making application for ballot in that precinct. The number shall be listed on the "Statement of Ballots" form provided by the election authority. (6) The totals for all candidates and propositions shall be tabulated; 4 sets shall be attached to the 4 sets of "Certificate of Results", which may be generated by the automatic tabulating equipment, provided by the election authority; one set shall be posted in a conspicuous place inside the polling place; and every effort shall be made by the judges of election to provide a set for each authorized pollwatcher or other official authorized to be present in the polling place to observe the counting of ballots; but in no case shall the number of sets to be made available to pollwatchers be fewer than 4, chosen by lot by the judges of election. In addition, sufficient time shall be provided by the judges of election to the pollwatchers to allow them to copy information from the set which has been posted.

(Source: P.A. 89-394, eff. 1-1-97.) (10 ILCS 5/24B-10.1) Sec. 24B-10.1. In-Precinct Counting Equipment; Procedures for Counting and Tallying Ballots. In an election jurisdiction where Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology counting equipment is used, the following procedures for counting and tallying the ballots shall apply: (a) The in-precinct automatic tabulating equipment shall be set to count each ballot for candidates and for or against propositions to be voted upon as the ballot is inserted into the automatic tabulating equipment, and the equipment shall internally tally accurate vote totals for all such candidates and for and against all such propositions. Before the opening of the polls, and before the ballots are entered into the automatic tabulating equipment, the judges of election shall turn on the automatic tabulating equipment, activate the precinct program memory medium, and verify that the public counter is set at zero shall be sure that the totals are all zeros in the counting column. Ballots may then be counted by entering each ballot into the automatic tabulating equipment. After the polls have been declared open, each ballot shall be inserted into the automatic tabulating equipment by the voter immediately after the voter has completed marking his or her ballot. The ballot shall be inserted into the automatic tabulating equipment without public observation of the votes cast on the ballot. The judges of election shall not handle any voted ballot except as provided in this Code for uninitialed, spoiled, and defective and damaged ballots. Each voted ballot shall be deposited into a secure ballot box immediately after it has been counted by the automatic tabulating equipment.
[May 8, 2002] 34 Immediately after the closing of the polls and after the insertion of absentee ballots entitled to be counted, the automatic tabulating equipment shall be locked against further processing of ballots and the vote totals shall be displayed and read. Throughout the election day and before the closing of the polls, no person shall be permitted to may check for any vote totals for any candidate or proposition on the automatic tabulating equipment. However, any voter, judge of election, or poll watcher may examine the number of counted ballots shown on the public counter of the automatic tabulating equipment when the polls are open. During the time that polling places are open for voting, no person may reset the equipment for re-insertion of ballots except upon the specific authorization of the election authority; the automatic tabulating equipment shall be programmed to prevent such re-insertion unless provided a code by an authorized representative of the election authority. If the automatic tabulating equipment becomes inoperative during voting hours, until such time as it is repaired and restarted by a representative of the election authority, the voters shall deposit their voted ballots into the secure portion of the supply carrier case or other secure ballot container supplied by the election authority and the judges of election shall open the container used for this purpose only after the close of the polls and shall then insert each of the deposited ballots into the automatic tabulating equipment to be tallied. Such automatic tabulating equipment shall be programmed so that no person may reset the equipment for refeeding of ballots unless provided a code from an authorized representative of the election authority. At the option of the election authority, the ballots may be fed into the Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology equipment by the voters under the direct supervision of the judges of elections. (b) The in-precinct automatic tabulating equipment shall have the capability to identify voting defects. The election authority shall develop and implement procedures for the following: (1) The counting equipment shall be set to automatically return to the voter any ballot on which the number of votes for an office or proposition exceeds the number of votes that the voter is entitled to cast. If the voter, after being informed that an overvote has occurred, determines to have the ballot counted despite containing an overvote, the automatic tabulating equipment shall be set to accept the ballot and count the votes for or against propositions and for candidates for offices for which there is no overvote. (2) The equipment shall be set to return any ballot that is damaged or defective and cannot properly be read by the automatic tabulating equipment. The ballot shall be marked "Spoiled Ballot", initialed by all judges immediately under the words "Spoiled Ballot", and not counted. The judges shall initial and issue a new ballot to the voter in lieu of the original "Spoiled Ballot" and the voter shall then be permitted to vote the new ballot. (c) Immediately after the closing of the polls, the absentee ballots delivered to the precinct judges of election by the election authority shall be examined to determine that the ballots comply with Sections 19-9 and 20-9 of this Code and are entitled to be scanned by the Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology equipment and then deposited in the ballot box; those entitled to be scanned and deposited in the ballot box shall be initialed by the precinct judges of election and then scanned and deposited in the ballot box. Those not entitled to be deposited in the ballot box shall be marked "Rejected" and disposed of as provided in said Sections 19-9 and 20-9. The precinct judges of election shall open the ballot box and count the number of ballots to determine if the number agrees with the number of voters voting as shown on the Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology equipment and by the applications for ballot or, if the same do not agree, the judges of election shall make the ballots agree with the applications for ballot in the manner provided by Section 17-18 of this Code. The judges of election shall then examine all ballots which are in the ballot box to determine whether the ballots contain the
35 [May 8, 2002] initials of a precinct judge of election. If any ballot is not initialed, it shall be marked on the back "Defective", initialed as to such label by all judges immediately under the word "Defective" and not counted. The judges of election shall place an initialed blank official ballot in the place of the defective ballot, so that the count of the ballots to be counted on the automatic tabulating equipment will be the same, and each "Defective Ballot" and "Replacement" ballot shall contain the same serial number which shall be placed thereon by the judges of election, beginning with number 1 and continuing consecutively for the ballots of that kind in that precinct. The original "Defective" ballot shall be placed in the "Defective Ballot Envelope" provided for that purpose. If the judges of election have removed a ballot pursuant to Section 17-18, have labeled "Defective" a ballot which is not initialed, or have otherwise determined under this Code to not count a ballot originally deposited into a ballot box, the judges of election shall be sure that the totals on the automatic tabulating equipment are reset to all zeros in the counting column. Thereafter the judges of election shall enter each ballot to be counted in the automatic tabulating equipment. Resetting the automatic tabulating equipment to all zeros and re-entering of ballots to be counted may occur at the precinct polling place, the office of the election authority, or any receiving station designated by the election authority. The election authority shall designate the place for resetting and re-entering. When a Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology electronic voting system is used which uses a paper ballot, the judges of election shall examine the ballot for write-in votes. When the voter has cast a write-in vote, the judges of election shall compare the write-in vote with the votes on the ballot to determine whether the write-in results in an overvote for any office, unless the Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology equipment has already done so. In case of an overvote for any office, the judges of election, consisting in each case of at least one judge of election of each of the 2 major political parties, shall make a true duplicate ballot of all votes on such ballot except for the office which is overvoted, by using the ballot of the precinct and one of the marking devices of the precinct so as to transfer all votes of the voter, except for the office overvoted, to a duplicate ballot. The original ballot upon which there is an overvote shall be clearly labeled "Overvoted Ballot", and each such "Overvoted Ballot" as well as its "Replacement" shall contain the same serial number which shall be placed thereon by the judges of election, beginning with number 1 and continuing consecutively for the ballots of that kind in that precinct. The "Overvoted Ballot" shall be placed in an envelope provided for that purpose labeled "Duplicate Ballot" envelope, and the judges of election shall initial the "Replacement" ballots and shall place them with the other ballots to be counted on the automatic tabulating equipment. If any ballot is damaged or defective, or if any ballot contains a Voting Defect, so that it cannot properly be counted by the automatic tabulating equipment, the voter or the judges of election, consisting in each case of at least one judge of election of each of the 2 major political parties, shall make a true duplicate ballot of all votes on such ballot by using the ballot of the precinct and one of the marking devices of the precinct. If a damaged ballot, the original ballot shall be clearly labeled "Damaged Ballot" and the ballot so produced shall be clearly labeled "Damaged Ballot" and the ballot so produced shall be clearly labeled "Duplicate Damaged Ballot", and each shall contain the same serial number which shall be placed by the judges of election, beginning with number 1 and continuing consecutively for the ballots of that kind in the precinct. The judges of election shall initial the "Duplicate Damaged Ballot" ballot and shall enter the duplicate damaged ballot into the automatic tabulating equipment. The "Damaged Ballots" shall be placed in the "Duplicated Ballots" envelope; after all ballots have been successfully read, the judges of election shall check to make certain that the Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology equipment readout agrees with the number of voters making
[May 8, 2002] 36 application for ballot in that precinct. The number shall be listed on the "Statement of Ballots" form provided by the election authority. The totals for all candidates and propositions shall be tabulated; and 4 copies of a "Certificate of Results" shall be generated by the automatic tabulating equipment; one copy shall be posted in a conspicuous place inside the polling place; and every effort shall be made by the judges of election to provide a copy for each authorized pollwatcher or other official authorized to be present in the polling place to observe the counting of ballots; but in no case shall the number of copies to be made available to pollwatchers be fewer than 4, chosen by lot by the judges of election. In addition, sufficient time shall be provided by the judges of election to the pollwatchers to allow them to copy information from the copy which has been posted. The judges of election shall count all unused ballots and enter the number on the "Statement of Ballots". All "Spoiled", "Defective" and "Duplicated" ballots shall be counted and the number entered on the "Statement of Ballots". The precinct judges of election shall select a bi-partisan team of 2 judges, who shall immediately return the ballots in a sealed container, along with all other election materials as instructed by the election authority; provided, however, that such container must first be sealed by the election judges with filament tape or other approved sealing devices provided for the purpose which shall be wrapped around the container lengthwise and crosswise, at least twice each way, in a manner that the ballots cannot be removed from the container without breaking the seal and filament tape and disturbing any signatures affixed by the election judges to the container, or which other approved sealing devices are affixed in a manner approved by the election authority. The election authority shall keep the office of the election authority or any receiving stations designated by the authority, open for at least 12 consecutive hours after the polls close or until the ballots from all precincts with in-precinct automatic tabulating counting equipment within the jurisdiction of the election authority have been returned to the election authority. Ballots returned to the office of the election authority which are not signed and sealed as required by law shall not be accepted by the election authority until the judges returning the ballots make and sign the necessary corrections. Upon acceptance of the ballots by the election authority, the judges returning the ballots shall take a receipt signed by the election authority and stamped with the time and date of the return. The election judges whose duty it is to return any ballots as provided shall, in the event the ballots cannot be found when needed, on proper request, produce the receipt which they are to take as above provided. The precinct judges of election shall also deliver the Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology equipment to the election authority. (Source: P.A. 89-394, eff. 1-1-97.)

In precincts that utilize in-precinct automatic tabulating equipment having voting defect identification capability and in which voters insert their ballots into the automatic tabulating equipment, if any ballot is damaged or defective so that it cannot properly be counted by the automatic Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology tabulating equipment, that ballot shall be treated as a spoiled ballot as provided in Section 24B-10.1. If any ballot is damaged or defective so that it cannot properly be counted by the automatic Precinct Tabulation Optical Scan Technology tabulating equipment, a true duplicate copy shall be made of the damaged ballot in the presence of witnesses and substituted for the damaged ballot.

The Simplified Municipal Telecommunications Tax Act is amended by adding Section 5-42 as follows: (35 ILCS 636/5-42 new) Sec. 5-42. Procedure for determining proper tax jurisdiction. (a) Tax jurisdiction information. (1) A municipality shall provide, within 30 days following receipt of a written request from a telecommunications retailer (mobile or non-mobile): (A) A list containing each street name, known street name aliases, street address number ranges, applicable directionals, and zip codes associated with each street name, for all street addresses located within the municipality. For a range of street address numbers located within a municipality that consists only of odd or even street numbers, the list must specify whether the street numbers in the range are odd or even. The list shall be alphabetical, except that numbered streets shall be in numerical sequence.
39 [May 8, 2002] (B) A list containing each postal zip code and all the city names associated therewith for all zip codes assigned to geographic areas located entirely within the municipality, including zip codes assigned to rural route boxes; and (C) A sequential list containing all rural route box number ranges and the city names and zip codes associated therewith, for all rural route boxes located within the municipality, except that rural route boxes with postal zip codes entirely within the municipality that are included on the list furnished under paragraph (B) need not be duplicated. (D) The lists shall be printed. If a list is available through another medium, however, the municipality shall, upon request, furnish the list through such medium in addition to or in lieu of the printed lists. The municipality shall be responsible for updating the lists as changes occur and for furnishing this information to all telecommunications retailers affected by the changes. Each update shall specify an effective date, which shall be either the next ensuing January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1; shall be furnished to the telecommunications retailer not less than 60 days prior to the effective date; and shall identify the additions, deletions, and other changes to the preceding version of the list. If the information is received less than 60 days prior to the effective date of the change, the telecommunications retailer has until the next ensuing January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 to make the appropriate changes. (2) The telecommunications retailer shall be responsible for charging the tax to the service addresses or, in the case of mobile telecommunications, to the primary place of use addresses contained in the lists that include all of the elements required by this Section. If a service address is not included in the list, the telecommunications retailer shall be held harmless from situsing errors provided it uses a reasonable methodology to assign the service address or addresses to a local tax jurisdiction. The telecommunications retailer shall be held harmless for any tax overpayments or underpayments (including penalty or interest) resulting from written information provided by the municipality or, in the case of disputes, the Department. (3) If it is determined from the lists or updates furnished under item (a)(1) that more than one municipality claims the same address or group of addresses, the telecommunications retailer shall notify the Department within 60 days of discovering the discrepancy. After notification and until resolution, the telecommunications retailer will continue its prior tax treatment and will be held harmless for any tax, penalty, and interest in the event the prior tax treatment is wrong. Upon resolution, the Department will notify the telecommunications retailer in a written form describing the resolution. Upon receipt of the resolution, the telecommunications retailer has until the next ensuing January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 to make the change. (4) Municipalities shall notify telecommunications retailers of any annexations, de-annexations, or other boundary changes at least 60 days prior to the effective date of such changes. The notification shall contain each street name, known street name aliases, street address number ranges, applicable directionals, and zip codes associated with each street name, for all street addresses for which a change has occurred. The notice shall be mailed to an address designated by the telecommunications retailer. The telecommunications retailer has until the next ensuing January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 to make the changes described in such notification . (b) The safe harbor provisions, Sections 40 and 45 of the Mobile Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act, shall apply to any telecommunications retailers (wireless or non-wireless) employing enhanced zip codes (zip+4) to assign each street address, address range, post office box, or post office box range in their service area
[May 8, 2002] 40 to a specific municipal tax jurisdiction. (c) Persons who believe that they are improperly being charged a tax imposed under this Act because their service address is assigned to the wrong taxing jurisdiction shall notify their telecommunications (mobile or non-mobile) retailer in writing. The notification shall include the street address for her or his place of primary use for mobile telecommunications service or the service address for non-mobile telecommunications, the name and address of the telecommunications retailer who is collecting the tax imposed by this Act, the account name and number for which the person seeks a correction of the tax assignment, a description of the error asserted by that person, an estimated amount of tax claimed to have been incorrectly paid, the time period for which that amount of tax applies, and any other information that the telecommunications retailer may reasonably require to process the request. For purposes of this Section, the terms "place of primary use" and "mobile telecommunications service" shall have the same meanings as those terms are defined in the Mobile Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act. Within 60 days after receiving a notice under this subsection (c), the telecommunications retailer shall review its records and the electronic database, if existing, or enhanced zip code used pursuant to Section 25 or 40 of the Mobile Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act to determine the customer's taxing jurisdiction. If this review shows that the amount of tax, assignment of place of primary use or service address, or taxing jurisdiction is in error, the telecommunications retailer shall correct the error and refund or credit the amount of tax erroneously collected from the customer for a period of up to 3 years. If this review shows that the amount of tax, assignment of place of primary use or service address, or taxing jurisdiction is correct, the telecommunications retailer shall provide a written explanation to the person from whom the notice was received. (1) If the person is dissatisfied with the response from the telecommunications retailer, the customer may request a written determination from the Department on a form prescribed by the Department. The request shall contain the same information as was provided to the telecommunications retailer. The Department shall review the request for determination and make all reasonable efforts to determine if such person's place of primary use for mobile telecommunications service or the service address for non-mobile telecommunications is located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the municipality for which the person is being charged tax under this Act. Upon request by the Department, municipalities that have imposed a tax under this Act shall timely provide information to the Department regarding such requests for determination. The municipality shall have 30 days to respond to the request submitted by the Department. (2) Within 90 days after receipt of a request for determination under subsection (c) of this Section, the Department shall issue a letter of determination to the person stating whether that person's place of primary use for mobile telecommunications service or the service address for non-mobile telecommunications is located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the municipality for which the person is being charged tax under this Act or naming the proper municipality, if different. The Department shall also list in the letter of determination its findings as to the limit of the jurisdictional boundary (street address range) for the municipality in relation to the street address listed in the request for a letter of determination. A copy of such letter of determination shall be provided by the Department to the telecommunications retailer listed on the request for determination. The copy shall be sent via mail to an address designated by the telecommunications retailer. (3) If the telecommunications retailer receives a copy of the letter of determination from the Department described in paragraph (2) of subsection (c) of this Section that states that the person's place of primary use for mobile telecommunications service or the
41 [May 8, 2002] service address for non-mobile telecommunications is not located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the municipality for which that person is being charged tax under this Act and that provides the correct tax jurisdiction for the particular street address, the telecommunications retailer shall correct the error prospectively and refund or credit the amount of tax determined to have been paid in error by such person. The telecommunications retailer shall retain such copy of the letter of determination in its books and records and shall be held harmless for any tax, penalty, or interest due as a result of its reliance on such determination. If the Department subsequently receives information that discloses that such service addresses or places of primary use on that street are within the jurisdictional boundaries of a municipality other than the one specified in the previous letter, the Department shall notify the telecommunications retailer in writing that it is to begin collecting tax for a specified municipality on the accounts associated with those service addresses or places of primary use. The notification to begin collecting tax on such accounts sent by the Department to the telecommunications retailers prior to any January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 shall be effective with respect to gross charges billed to those accounts on or after the following January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1, respectively. (4) If the telecommunications retailer receives a copy of the letter of determination from the Department described in paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (c) of this Section that states that the such person's place of primary use for mobile telecommunications service or the service address for non-mobile telecommunications is not located within the jurisdictional boundaries of the municipality for which that person is being charged tax under this Act and the telecommunications retailer fails to correct the error and refund or credit the appropriate amount of tax paid in error within the time period prescribed in paragraph (3) of subsection (c), the telecommunications retailer will not be held harmless for any tax, penalty, or interest due the Department as a result of the error. The person shall have the normal cause of action available under the law to recover any tax, penalty, or interest from the telecommunications retailer. Section 10. The Mobile Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act is amended by changing Section 80 as follows: (35 ILCS 638/80) (This Section may contain text from a Public Act with a delayed effective date) Sec. 80. Customers' procedures and remedies for correcting taxes and fees. (a) If a customer believes that an amount of tax or assignment of place of primary use or taxing jurisdiction included on a billing is erroneous, the customer shall notify his or her telecommunications retailer the home service provider in writing. The customer shall include in this written notification the street address for her or his place of primary use, the account name and number for which the customer seeks a correction of the tax assignment, a description of the error asserted by the customer, an estimated amount of tax claimed to have been incorrectly paid, the time period for which that amount of tax applies, and any other information that the telecommunications retailer home service provider reasonably requires to process the request. Within 60 days after receiving a notice under this subsection (a), the telecommunications retailer home service provider shall review its records and the electronic database or enhanced zip code used pursuant to Section 25 or 40 to determine the customer's taxing jurisdiction. If this review shows that the amount of tax, assignment of place of primary use or service address, or taxing jurisdiction is in error, the telecommunications retailer home service provider shall correct the error and refund or credit the amount of tax erroneously collected from the customer for a period of up to 3 2 years. If this review shows that the amount of tax, assignment of place of primary use or service address, or taxing jurisdiction is correct, the
[May 8, 2002] 42 telecommunications retailer home service provider shall provide a written explanation to the customer. (b) If the customer is dissatisfied with the response of the telecommunications retailer home service provider under this Section, the customer may seek a correction or refund or both from the taxing jurisdiction affected. (c) The procedures in this Section shall be the first course of remedy available to customers seeking correction of assignment of place of primary use or taxing jurisdiction or a refund of or other compensation for taxes, charges, and fees erroneously collected by the telecommunications retailer home service provider, and no cause of action based upon a dispute arising from these taxes, charges, or fees shall accrue until a customer has reasonably exercised the rights and procedures set forth in this Section.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SENATE BILL 1930 AMENDMENT NO. 2. Amend Senate Bill 1930 by replacing the title with the following: "AN ACT concerning schools."; and by inserting immediately below the enacting clause the following: "Section 3. The School Code is amended by changing Sections 1D-1, 14-7.02, 14-7.02a, 14-13.01, and 29-5 and adding Sections 17-17 and 34-23.5 as follows: (105 ILCS 5/1D-1) Sec. 1D-1. Block grant funding. (a) For fiscal year 1996 and each fiscal year thereafter, the State Board of Education shall award to a school district having a population exceeding 500,000 inhabitants a general education block grant and an educational services block grant, determined as provided in this Section, in lieu of distributing to the district separate State funding for the programs described in subsections (b) and (c). The provisions of this Section, however, do not apply to any federal funds that the district is entitled to receive. In accordance with Section 2-3.32, all block grants are subject to an audit. Therefore, block grant receipts and block grant expenditures shall be recorded to the appropriate fund code for the designated block grant. (b) The general education block grant shall include the following programs: REI Initiative, Summer Bridges, Preschool At Risk, K-6 Comprehensive Arts, School Improvement Support, Urban Education, Scientific Literacy, Substance Abuse Prevention, Second Language Planning, Staff Development, Outcomes and Assessment, K-6 Reading Improvement, Truants' Optional Education, Hispanic Programs, Agriculture Education, Gifted Education, Parental Education, Prevention Initiative, Report Cards, and Criminal Background Investigations. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, all amounts paid under the general education block grant from State appropriations to a school district in a city having a population exceeding 500,000 inhabitants shall be appropriated and expended by the board of that district for any of the programs included in the block grant or any of the board's lawful purposes. (c) The educational services block grant shall include the following programs: Bilingual, Regular and Vocational Transportation, State Lunch and Free Breakfast Program, Special Education (Personnel, Extraordinary, Transportation, Orphanage, Private Tuition), Summer
[May 8, 2002] 46 School, Educational Service Centers, and Administrator's Academy. This subsection (c) does not relieve the district of its obligation to provide the services required under a program that is included within the educational services block grant. It is the intention of the General Assembly in enacting the provisions of this subsection (c) to relieve the district of the administrative burdens that impede efficiency and accompany single-program funding. The General Assembly encourages the board to pursue mandate waivers pursuant to Section 2-3.25g. (d) For fiscal year 1996 and each fiscal year thereafter, the amount of the district's block grants shall be determined as follows: (i) with respect to each program that is included within each block grant, the district shall receive an amount equal to the same percentage of the current fiscal year appropriation made for that program as the percentage of the appropriation received by the district from the 1995 fiscal year appropriation made for that program, and (ii) the total amount that is due the district under the block grant shall be the aggregate of the amounts that the district is entitled to receive for the fiscal year with respect to each program that is included within the block grant that the State Board of Education shall award the district under this Section for that fiscal year. In the case of the Summer Bridges program, the amount of the district's block grant shall be equal to 44% of the amount of the current fiscal year appropriation made for that program. (e) The district is not required to file any application or other claim in order to receive the block grants to which it is entitled under this Section. The State Board of Education shall make payments to the district of amounts due under the district's block grants on a schedule determined by the State Board of Education. (f) A school district to which this Section applies shall report to the State Board of Education on its use of the block grants in such form and detail as the State Board of Education may specify. (g) This paragraph provides for the treatment of block grants under Article 1C for purposes of calculating the amount of block grants for a district under this Section. Those block grants under Article 1C IC are, for this purpose, treated as included in the amount of appropriation for the various programs set forth in paragraph (b) above. The appropriation in each current fiscal year for each block grant under Article 1C shall be treated for these purposes as appropriations for the individual program included in that block grant. The proportion of each block grant so allocated to each such program included in it shall be the proportion which the appropriation for that program was of all appropriations for such purposes now in that block grant, in fiscal 1995. Payments to the school district under this Section with respect to each program for which payments to school districts generally, as of the date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly, are on a reimbursement basis shall continue to be made to the district on a reimbursement basis, pursuant to the provisions of this Code governing those programs. (h) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any school district receiving a block grant under this Section may classify all or a portion of the funds that it receives in a particular fiscal year from any block grant authorized under this Code or from general State aid pursuant to Section 18-8.05 of this Code (other than supplemental general State aid) as funds received in connection with any funding program for which it is entitled to receive funds from the State in that fiscal year (including, without limitation, any funding program referred to in subsection (c) of this Section), regardless of the source or timing of the receipt. The district may not classify more funds as funds received in connection with the funding program than the district is entitled to receive in that fiscal year for that program. Any classification by a district must be made by a resolution of its board of education. The resolution must identify the amount of any block grant or general State aid to be classified under this subsection (h) and must specify the funding program to which the funds are to be
47 [May 8, 2002] treated as received in connection therewith. This resolution is controlling as to the classification of funds referenced therein. A certified copy of the resolution must be sent to the State Superintendent of Education. The resolution shall still take effect even though a copy of the resolution has not been sent to the State Superintendent of Education in a timely manner. No classification under this subsection (h) by a district shall affect the total amount or timing of money the district is entitled to receive under this Code. No classification under this subsection (h) by a district shall in any way relieve the district from or affect any requirements that otherwise would apply with respect to the block grant as provided in this Section, including any accounting of funds by source, reporting expenditures by original source and purpose, reporting requirements, or requirements of provision of services.

Children attending private schools, public out-of-state schools, public school residential facilities or private special education facilities. The General Assembly recognizes that non-public schools or special education facilities provide an important service in the educational system in Illinois. If because of his or her disability the special education program of a district is unable to meet the needs of a child and the child attends a non-public school or special education facility, a public out-of-state school or a special education facility owned and operated by a county government unit that provides special educational services required by the child and is in compliance with the appropriate rules and regulations of the State Superintendent of Education, the school district in which the child is a resident shall pay the actual cost of tuition for special education and related services provided during the regular school term and during the summer school term if the child's educational needs so require, excluding room, board and transportation costs charged the child by that non-public school or special education facility, public out-of-state school or county special education facility, or $4,500 per year, whichever is less, and shall provide him any necessary transportation. "Nonpublic special education facility" shall include a residential facility, within or without the State of Illinois, which provides special education and related services to meet the needs of the child by utilizing private schools or public schools, whether located on the site or off the site of the residential facility. The State Board of Education shall promulgate rules and regulations for determining when placement in a private special education facility is appropriate. Such rules and regulations shall take into account the various types of services needed by a child and the availability of such services to the particular child in the public school. In developing these rules and regulations the State Board of Education shall consult with the Advisory Council on Education of Children with Disabilities and hold public hearings to secure recommendations from parents, school personnel, and others concerned about this matter. The State Board of Education shall also promulgate rules and regulations for transportation to and from a residential school. Transportation to and from home to a residential school more than once each school term shall be subject to prior approval by the State Superintendent in accordance with the rules and regulations of the State Board. A school district making tuition payments pursuant to this Section is eligible for reimbursement from the State for the amount of such payments actually made in excess of the district per capita tuition charge for students not receiving special education services. Such reimbursement shall be approved in accordance with Section 14-12.01 and each district shall file its claims, computed in accordance with rules prescribed by the State Board of Education, on forms prescribed by the State Superintendent of Education. Data used as a basis of reimbursement claims shall be for the preceding regular school term and
[May 8, 2002] 48 summer school term. Each school district shall transmit its claims to the State Board of Education on or before August 15. The State Board of Education, before approving any such claims, shall determine their accuracy and whether they are based upon services and facilities provided under approved programs. Upon approval the State Board shall cause vouchers to be prepared showing the amount due for payment of reimbursement claims to school districts, for transmittal to the State Comptroller on the 30th day of September, December, and March, respectively, and the final voucher, no later than June 20. If the money appropriated by the General Assembly for such purpose for any year is insufficient, it shall be apportioned on the basis of the claims approved. No child shall be placed in a special education program pursuant to this Section if the tuition cost for special education and related services increases more than 10 percent over the tuition cost for the previous school year or exceeds $4,500 per year unless such costs have been approved by the Illinois Purchased Care Review Board. The Illinois Purchased Care Review Board shall consist of the following persons, or their designees: the Directors of Children and Family Services, Public Health, Public Aid, and the Bureau of the Budget; the Secretary of Human Services; the State Superintendent of Education; and such other persons as the Governor may designate. The Review Board shall establish rules and regulations for its determination of allowable costs and payments made by local school districts for special education, room and board, and other related services provided by non-public schools or special education facilities and shall establish uniform standards and criteria which it shall follow. The Review Board shall establish uniform definitions and criteria for accounting separately by special education, room and board and other related services costs. The Board shall also establish guidelines for the coordination of services and financial assistance provided by all State agencies to assure that no otherwise qualified disabled child receiving services under Article 14 shall be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity provided by any State agency. The Review Board shall review the costs for special education and related services provided by non-public schools or special education facilities and shall approve or disapprove such facilities in accordance with the rules and regulations established by it with respect to allowable costs. The State Board of Education shall provide administrative and staff support for the Review Board as deemed reasonable by the State Superintendent of Education. This support shall not include travel expenses or other compensation for any Review Board member other than the State Superintendent of Education. The Review Board shall seek the advice of the Advisory Council on Education of Children with Disabilities on the rules and regulations to be promulgated by it relative to providing special education services. If a child has been placed in a program in which the actual per pupil costs of tuition for special education and related services based on program enrollment, excluding room, board and transportation costs, exceed $4,500 and such costs have been approved by the Review Board, the district shall pay such total costs which exceed $4,500. A district making such tuition payments in excess of $4,500 pursuant to this Section shall be responsible for an amount in excess of $4,500 equal to the district per capita tuition charge and shall be eligible for reimbursement from the State for the amount of such payments actually made in excess of the districts per capita tuition charge for students not receiving special education services. If a child has been placed in an approved individual program and the tuition costs including room and board costs have been approved by the Review Board, then such room and board costs shall be paid by the appropriate State agency subject to the provisions of Section 14-8.01 of this Act. Room and board costs not provided by a State agency other than the State Board of Education shall be provided by the State Board
49 [May 8, 2002] of Education on a current basis. In no event, however, shall the State's liability for funding of these tuition costs begin until after the legal obligations of third party payors have been subtracted from such costs. If the money appropriated by the General Assembly for such purpose for any year is insufficient, it shall be apportioned on the basis of the claims approved. Each district shall submit estimated claims to the State Superintendent of Education. Upon approval of such claims, the State Superintendent of Education shall direct the State Comptroller to make payments on a monthly basis. The frequency for submitting estimated claims and the method of determining payment shall be prescribed in rules and regulations adopted by the State Board of Education. Such current state reimbursement shall be reduced by an amount equal to the proceeds which the child or child's parents are eligible to receive under any public or private insurance or assistance program. Nothing in this Section shall be construed as relieving an insurer or similar third party from an otherwise valid obligation to provide or to pay for services provided to a disabled child. If it otherwise qualifies, a school district is eligible for the transportation reimbursement under Section 14-13.01 and for the reimbursement of tuition payments under this Section whether the non-public school or special education facility, public out-of-state school or county special education facility, attended by a child who resides in that district and requires special educational services, is within or outside of the State of Illinois. However, a district is not eligible to claim transportation reimbursement under this Section unless the district certifies to the State Superintendent of Education that the district is unable to provide special educational services required by the child for the current school year. Nothing in this Section authorizes the reimbursement of a school district for the amount paid for tuition of a child attending a non-public school or special education facility, public out-of-state school or county special education facility unless the school district certifies to the State Superintendent of Education that the special education program of that district is unable to meet the needs of that child because of his disability and the State Superintendent of Education finds that the school district is in substantial compliance with Section 14-4.01. Any educational or related services provided, pursuant to this Section in a non-public school or special education facility or a special education facility owned and operated by a county government unit shall be at no cost to the parent or guardian of the child. However, current law and practices relative to contributions by parents or guardians for costs other than educational or related services are not affected by this amendatory Act of 1978. Reimbursement for children attending public school residential facilities shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any school district receiving a payment under this Section or under Section 14-7.02a, 14-13.01, or 29-5 of this Code may classify all or a portion of the funds that it receives in a particular fiscal year or from general State aid pursuant to Section 18-8.05 of this Code as funds received in connection with any funding program for which it is entitled to receive funds from the State in that fiscal year (including, without limitation, any funding program referenced in this Section), regardless of the source or timing of the receipt. The district may not classify more funds as funds received in connection with the funding program than the district is entitled to receive in that fiscal year for that program. Any classification by a district must be made by a resolution of its board of education. The resolution must identify the amount of any payments or general State aid to be classified under this paragraph and must specify the funding program to which the funds are to be treated as received in connection therewith. This resolution is controlling as to the classification of funds referenced therein. A certified copy of the resolution must be sent to the State Superintendent of Education. The resolution shall still take effect
[May 8, 2002] 50 even though a copy of the resolution has not been sent to the State Superintendent of Education in a timely manner. No classification under this paragraph by a district shall affect the total amount or timing of money the district is entitled to receive under this Code. No classification under this paragraph by a district shall in any way relieve the district from or affect any requirements that otherwise would apply with respect to that funding program, including any accounting of funds by source, reporting expenditures by original source and purpose, reporting requirements, or requirements of providing services.

A school district providing for a child requiring extraordinary special education services because of the nature of his disability is eligible for reimbursement from the State if the cost of educating that child is computed, as set forth in Section 14-7.01, to be in excess of one and one-half times the district per capita tuition charge for the prior year. Such costs beyond one per capita tuition charge shall be reimbursed, up to a maximum of $2,000. A child is deemed to require extraordinary special education services and facilities under the following conditions: 1) the school district has determined that the child requires extraordinary special education facilities pursuant to the multidisciplinary case study and the individualized education program; 2) the school district maintains adequate cost accounting to document the per capita cost of special education; and 3) the school district submits approval and claim data annually for each eligible child. Extraordinary special education services provided on a one-half day basis shall only be reimbursed at a rate of one-half the amount otherwise provided herein. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any school district receiving a payment under this Section or under Section 14-7.02, 14-13.01, or 29-5 of this Code may classify all or a portion of the funds that it receives in a particular fiscal year or from general State aid pursuant to Section 18-8.05 of this Code as funds received in connection with any funding program for which it is entitled to receive funds from the State in that fiscal year (including, without limitation, any funding program referenced in this Section), regardless of the source or timing of the receipt.

(h) For necessary non-certified employees working in any class or program for children defined in this Article, 1/2 of the salary paid or $2,800 annually per employee, whichever is less. The State Board of Education shall set standards and prescribe rules for determining the allocation of reimbursement under this section on less than a full time basis and for less than a school year. When any school district eligible for reimbursement under this Section operates a school or program approved by the State
[May 8, 2002] 52 Superintendent of Education for a number of days in excess of the adopted school calendar but not to exceed 235 school days, such reimbursement shall be increased by 1/185 of the amount or rate paid hereunder for each day such school is operated in excess of 185 days per calendar year. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any school district receiving a payment under this Section or under Section 14-7.02, 14-7.02a, or 29-5 of this Code may classify all or a portion of the funds that it receives in a particular fiscal year or from general State aid pursuant to Section 18-8.05 of this Code as funds received in connection with any funding program for which it is entitled to receive funds from the State in that fiscal year (including, without limitation, any funding program referenced in this Section), regardless of the source or timing of the receipt. The district may not classify more funds as funds received in connection with the funding program than the district is entitled to receive in that fiscal year for that program. Any classification by a district must be made by a resolution of its board of education. The resolution must identify the amount of any payments or general State aid to be classified under this paragraph and must specify the funding program to which the funds are to be treated as received in connection therewith. This resolution is controlling as to the classification of funds referenced therein. A certified copy of the resolution must be sent to the State Superintendent of Education. The resolution shall still take effect even though a copy of the resolution has not been sent to the State Superintendent of Education in a timely manner. No classification under this paragraph by a district shall affect the total amount or timing of money the district is entitled to receive under this Code. No classification under this paragraph by a district shall in any way relieve the district from or affect any requirements that otherwise would apply with respect to that funding program, including any accounting of funds by source, reporting expenditures by original source and purpose, reporting requirements, or requirements of providing services.

(a) In lieu of issuing tax anticipation warrants in accordance with Section 17-16 of this Code, the school board of a school district having a population of 500,000 or less inhabitants may issue notes, bonds, or other obligations (and in connection with that issuance, establish a line of credit with a bank) in an amount not to exceed 85% of the amount of property taxes most recently levied for educational and building purposes. Moneys thus borrowed shall be applied to the purposes for which they were obtained and no other purpose. All moneys so borrowed shall be repaid exclusively from property tax revenues within 60 days after the property tax revenues have been received by the board. (b) Borrowing authorized under subsection (a) of this Section shall bear interest at a rate not to exceed the maximum rate authorized by the Bond Authorization Act, from the date of issuance until paid. (c) Prior to the board borrowing or establishing a line of credit under this Section, the board shall authorize, by resolution, the borrowing or line of credit. The resolution shall set forth facts demonstrating the need for the borrowing or line of credit, state the amount to be borrowed, establish a maximum interest rate limit not to exceed that set forth in subsection (b) of this Section, and provide a date by which the borrowed funds shall be repaid. The resolution shall direct the relevant officials to make arrangements to set apart and hold the taxes, as received, that will be used to repay the borrowing. In addition, the resolution may authorize the relevant officials to make partial repayments of the borrowing as the taxes become available and may contain any other terms, restrictions, or limitations not inconsistent with the provisions of this Section.
53 [May 8, 2002] (105 ILCS 5/29-5) (from Ch. 122, par. 29-5) Sec. 29-5. Reimbursement by State for transportation. Any school district, maintaining a school, transporting resident pupils to another school district's vocational program, offered through a joint agreement approved by the State Board of Education, as provided in Section 10-22.22 or transporting its resident pupils to a school which meets the standards for recognition as established by the State Board of Education which provides transportation meeting the standards of safety, comfort, convenience, efficiency and operation prescribed by the State Board of Education for resident pupils in kindergarten or any of grades 1 through 12 who: (a) reside at least 1 1/2 miles as measured by the customary route of travel, from the school attended; or (b) reside in areas where conditions are such that walking constitutes a hazard to the safety of the child when determined under Section 29-3; and (c) are transported to the school attended from pick-up points at the beginning of the school day and back again at the close of the school day or transported to and from their assigned attendance centers during the school day, shall be reimbursed by the State as hereinafter provided in this Section. The State will pay the cost of transporting eligible pupils less the assessed valuation in a dual school district maintaining secondary grades 9 to 12 inclusive times a qualifying rate of .05%; in elementary school districts maintaining grades K to 8 times a qualifying rate of .06%; in unit districts maintaining grades K to 12 times a qualifying rate of .07%. To be eligible to receive reimbursement in excess of 4/5 of the cost to transport eligible pupils, a school district shall have a Transportation Fund tax rate of at least .12%. If a school district does not have a .12% Transportation Fund tax rate, the amount of its claim in excess of 4/5 of the cost of transporting pupils shall be reduced by the sum arrived at by subtracting the Transportation Fund tax rate from .12% and multiplying that amount by the districts equalized or assessed valuation, provided, that in no case shall said reduction result in reimbursement of less than 4/5 of the cost to transport eligible pupils. The minimum amount to be received by a district is $16 times the number of eligible pupils transported. Any such district transporting resident pupils during the school day to an area vocational school or another school district's vocational program more than 1 1/2 miles from the school attended, as provided in Sections 10-22.20a and 10-22.22, shall be reimbursed by the State for 4/5 of the cost of transporting eligible pupils. School day means that period of time which the pupil is required to be in attendance for instructional purposes. If a pupil is at a location within the school district other than his residence for child care purposes at the time for transportation to school, that location may be considered for purposes of determining the 1 1/2 miles from the school attended. Claims for reimbursement that include children who attend any school other than a public school shall show the number of such children transported. Claims for reimbursement under this Section shall not be paid for the transportation of pupils for whom transportation costs are claimed for payment under other Sections of this Act. The allowable direct cost of transporting pupils for regular, vocational, and special education pupil transportation shall be limited to the sum of the cost of physical examinations required for employment as a school bus driver; the salaries of full or part-time drivers and school bus maintenance personnel; employee benefits excluding Illinois municipal retirement payments, social security payments, unemployment insurance payments and workers' compensation insurance premiums; expenditures to independent carriers who operate school buses; payments to other school districts for pupil transportation services; pre-approved contractual expenditures for computerized bus scheduling; the cost of gasoline, oil, tires, and other supplies necessary for the operation of school buses; the cost of converting buses' gasoline engines to more fuel efficient engines or to engines which use
[May 8, 2002] 54 alternative energy sources; the cost of travel to meetings and workshops conducted by the regional superintendent or the State Superintendent of Education pursuant to the standards established by the Secretary of State under Section 6-106 of the Illinois Vehicle Code to improve the driving skills of school bus drivers; the cost of maintenance of school buses including parts and materials used; expenditures for leasing transportation vehicles, except interest and service charges; the cost of insurance and licenses for transportation vehicles; expenditures for the rental of transportation equipment; plus a depreciation allowance of 20% for 5 years for school buses and vehicles approved for transporting pupils to and from school and a depreciation allowance of 10% for 10 years for other transportation equipment so used. In addition to the above allowable costs school districts shall also claim all transportation supervisory salary costs, including Illinois municipal retirement payments, and all transportation related building and building maintenance costs without limitation. Special education allowable costs shall also include expenditures for the salaries of attendants or aides for that portion of the time they assist special education pupils while in transit and expenditures for parents and public carriers for transporting special education pupils when pre-approved by the State Superintendent of Education. Indirect costs shall be included in the reimbursement claim for districts which own and operate their own school buses. Such indirect costs shall include administrative costs, or any costs attributable to transporting pupils from their attendance centers to another school building for instructional purposes. No school district which owns and operates its own school buses may claim reimbursement for indirect costs which exceed 5% of the total allowable direct costs for pupil transportation. The State Board of Education shall prescribe uniform regulations for determining the above standards and shall prescribe forms of cost accounting and standards of determining reasonable depreciation. Such depreciation shall include the cost of equipping school buses with the safety features required by law or by the rules, regulations and standards promulgated by the State Board of Education, and the Department of Transportation for the safety and construction of school buses provided, however, any equipment cost reimbursed by the Department of Transportation for equipping school buses with such safety equipment shall be deducted from the allowable cost in the computation of reimbursement under this Section in the same percentage as the cost of the equipment is depreciated. On or before July 10, annually, the board clerk or the secretary of the district shall certify to the regional superintendent of schools upon forms prescribed by the State Superintendent of Education the district's claim for reimbursement for the school year ended on June 30 next preceding. The regional superintendent of schools shall check all transportation claims to ascertain compliance with the prescribed standards and upon his approval shall certify not later than July 25 to the State Superintendent of Education the regional report of claims for reimbursements. The State Superintendent of Education shall check and approve the claims and prepare the vouchers showing the amounts due for district reimbursement claims. Beginning with the 1977 fiscal year, the State Superintendent of Education shall prepare and transmit the first 3 vouchers to the Comptroller on the 30th day of September, December and March, respectively, and the final voucher, no later than June 15. If the amount appropriated for transportation reimbursement is insufficient to fund total claims for any fiscal year, the State Board of Education shall reduce each school district's allowable costs and flat grant amount proportionately to make total adjusted claims equal the total amount appropriated. For purposes of calculating claims for reimbursement under this Section for any school year beginning July 1, 1998, or thereafter, the equalized assessed valuation for a school district used to compute reimbursement shall be computed in the same manner as it is computed
55 [May 8, 2002] under paragraph (2) of subsection (G) of Section 18-8.05. All reimbursements received from the State shall be deposited into the district's transportation fund or into the fund from which the allowable expenditures were made. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any school district receiving a payment under this Section or under Section 14-7.02, 14-7.02a, or 14-13.01 of this Code may classify all or a portion of the funds that it receives in a particular fiscal year or from general State aid pursuant to Section 18-8.05 of this Code as funds received in connection with any funding program for which it is entitled to receive funds from the State in that fiscal year (including, without limitation, any funding program referenced in this Section), regardless of the source or timing of the receipt. The district may not classify more funds as funds received in connection with the funding program than the district is entitled to receive in that fiscal year for that program. Any classification by a district must be made by a resolution of its board of education. The resolution must identify the amount of any payments or general State aid to be classified under this paragraph and must specify the funding program to which the funds are to be treated as received in connection therewith. This resolution is controlling as to the classification of funds referenced therein. A certified copy of the resolution must be sent to the State Superintendent of Education. The resolution shall still take effect even though a copy of the resolution has not been sent to the State Superintendent of Education in a timely manner. No classification under this paragraph by a district shall affect the total amount or timing of money the district is entitled to receive under this Code. No classification under this paragraph by a district shall in any way relieve the district from or affect any requirements that otherwise would apply with respect to that funding program, including any accounting of funds by source, reporting expenditures by original source and purpose, reporting requirements, or requirements of providing services.

(a) In lieu of issuing tax anticipation warrants in accordance with Section 34-23 of this Code, the board may issue notes, bonds, or other obligations (and in connection with that issuance, establish a line of credit with a bank) in an amount not to exceed 85% of the amount of property taxes most recently levied for educational and building purposes.

A day and temporary labor service agency that violates any of the provisions of this Act concerning registration, transportation, equipment, meals, wages, or waiting rooms shall be subject to a civil penalty not to exceed $500 for any violations found in the first audit by the Department and not to exceed $5,000 for any violations found in the second audit by the Department. For any violations that are found in a third audit by the Department that are within 7 years of the earlier violations, the Department may revoke the registration of the violator. In determining the amount of a penalty, the Director shall consider the appropriateness of the penalty to the day and temporary labor service agency charged, upon the determination of the gravity of the violations. The amount of the penalty, when finally determined, may be: (1) Recovered in a civil action brought by the Director of Labor in any circuit court. In this litigation, the Director of Labor shall be represented by the Attorney General. (2) Ordered by the court, in an action brought by any party for a violation under this Act, to be paid to the Director of Labor.

Each day during which a violation of this Act continues shall constitute a separate and distinct offense, and the employment of any person in violation of the Act shall, with respect to each person so employed, constitute a separate and distinct offense. Whenever, in the opinion of the Department, a violation of the Act has occurred, the Department shall report the violation to the Attorney General of this State who shall
[May 8, 2002] 62 have authority to prosecute all reported violations. (820 ILCS 175/80 new) Sec. 80. Child Labor and Day and Temporary Labor Enforcement Fund. All moneys received as fees and civil penalties under this Act shall be deposited into the Child Labor and Day and Temporary Labor Enforcement Fund and may be used for the purposes set forth in Section 17.3 of the Child Labor Law. Section 15. The Child Labor Law is amended by changing Section 17.3 as follows: (820 ILCS 205/17.3) (from Ch. 48, par. 31.17-3) Sec. 17.3. Any employer who violates any of the provisions of this Act or any rule or regulation issued under the Act shall be subject to a civil penalty of not to exceed $5,000 for each such violation. In determining the amount of such penalty, the appropriateness of such penalty to the size of the business of the employer charged and the gravity of the violation shall be considered. The amount of such penalty, when finally determined, may be (1) recovered in a civil action brought by the Director of Labor in any circuit court, in which litigation the Director of Labor shall be represented by the Attorney General; (2) ordered by the court, in an action brought for violation under Section 19, to be paid to the Director of Labor. Any administrative determination by the Department of Labor of the amount of each penalty shall be final unless reviewed as provided in Section 17.1 of this Act. Civil penalties recovered under this Section shall be paid into the Child Labor and Day and Temporary Labor Enforcement Fund, a special fund which is hereby created in the State treasury. Moneys Monies in the Fund may shall be used, subject to appropriation, for exemplary programs, demonstration projects, and other activities or purposes related to the enforcement of this Act or for the activities or purposes related to the enforcement of the Day and Temporary Labor Services Act. (Source: P.A. 87-139; 88-365.) Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect January 1, 2003.". Representative Mendoza offered the following amendment and moved its adoption: AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SENATE BILL 1975 AMENDMENT NO. 2. Amend Senate Bill 1975, AS AMENDED, by replacing the title with the following: "AN ACT concerning labor."; and by inserting after Section 5 the following: "Section 7. The Prevailing Wage Act is amended by changing Sections 4 and 5 as follows: (820 ILCS 130/4) (from Ch. 48, par. 39s-4) Sec. 4. The public body awarding any contract for public work or otherwise undertaking any public works, shall ascertain the general prevailing rate of hourly wages in the locality in which the work is to be performed, for each craft or type of worker or mechanic needed to execute the contract, and where the public body performs the work without letting a contract therefor, shall ascertain the prevailing rate of wages on a per hour basis in the locality, and such public body shall specify in the resolution or ordinance and in the call for bids for the contract, that the general prevailing rate of wages in the locality for each craft or type of worker or mechanic needed to execute the contract or perform such work, also the general prevailing rate for legal holiday and overtime work, as ascertained by the public body or by the Department of Labor shall be paid for each craft or type of worker needed to execute the contract or to perform such work, and it shall be mandatory upon the contractor to whom the contract is awarded and upon any subcontractor under him, and where the public body
63 [May 8, 2002] performs the work, upon the public body, to pay not less than the specified rates to all laborers, workers and mechanics employed by them in the execution of the contract or such work; provided, however, that if the public body desires that the Department of Labor ascertain the prevailing rate of wages, it shall notify the Department of Labor to ascertain the general prevailing rate of hourly wages for work under contract, or for work performed by a public body without letting a contract as required in the locality in which the work is to be performed, for each craft or type of worker or mechanic needed to execute the contract or project or work to be performed. Upon such notification the Department of Labor shall ascertain such general prevailing rate of wages, and certify the prevailing wage to such public body. The public body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation to the effect that not less than the prevailing rate of wages as found by the public body or Department of Labor or determined by the court on review shall be paid to all laborers, workers and mechanics performing work under the contract. It shall also require in all such contractor's bonds that the contractor include such provision as will guarantee the faithful performance of such prevailing wage clause as provided by contract. All bid specifications shall list the specified rates to all laborers, workers and mechanics in the locality for each craft or type of worker or mechanic needed to execute the contract. If the Department of Labor revises the prevailing rate of hourly wages to be paid by the public body, the revised rate shall apply to such contract, and the public body shall be responsible to notify the contractor and each subcontractor, of the revised rate. Two or more investigatory hearings under this Section on the issue of establishing a new prevailing wage classification for a particular craft or type of worker shall be consolidated in a single hearing before the Department. Such consolidation shall occur whether each separate investigatory hearing is conducted by a public body or the Department. The party requesting a consolidated investigatory hearing shall have the burden of establishing that there is no existing prevailing wage classification for the particular craft or type of worker in any of the localities under consideration. (Source: P.A. 86-799.) (820 ILCS 130/5) (from Ch. 48, par. 39s-5) Sec. 5. The contractor and each subcontractor or the officer of the public body in charge of the project shall keep or cause to be kept, an accurate record showing the names and occupation of all laborers, workers and mechanics employed by them, in connection with said public work, and showing also the actual hourly wages paid to each of such persons, which record shall be open at all reasonable hours to the inspection of the public body awarding the contract, its officers and agents, and to the Director of Labor and his deputies and agents. Any contractor or subcontractor that maintains its principal place of business outside of this State shall make the required records or accurate copies of those records available within this State at all reasonable hours for inspection. (Source: P.A. 81-992.)"; and by replacing Section 99 with the following: "Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon becoming law, except that the provisions amending the State Finance Act, the Day Labor Services Act, and the Child Labor Law take effect on January 1, 2003.".
