Consideration should be given so that 11 if reunification fails or is delayed, the placement 12 made is the best available placement to provide 13 permanency for the child; 14 (G) (blank); 15 (H) (blank); and 16 (I) placing and maintaining children in 17 facilities that provide separate living quarters for 18 children under the age of 18 and for children 18 19 years of age and older, unless a child 18 years of 20 age is in the last year of high school education or 21 vocational training, in an approved individual or 22 group treatment program, in a licensed shelter 23 facility, or secure child care facility.

As a prerequisite for an advance disbursement, 14 the contractor must post a surety bond in the amount of the 15 advance disbursement and have a purchase of service contract 16 approved by the Department. The Department may pay up to 2 17 months operational expenses in advance. The amount of the 18 advance disbursement shall be prorated over the life of the 19 contract or the remaining months of the fiscal year, 20 whichever is less, and the installment amount shall then be 21 deducted from future bills. Advance disbursement 22 authorizations for new initiatives shall not be made to any 23 agency after that agency has operated during 2 consecutive 24 fiscal years. The requirements of this Section concerning 25 advance disbursements shall not apply with respect to the 26 following: payments to local public agencies for child day 27 care services as authorized by Section 5a of this Act; and 28 youth service programs receiving grant funds under Section 29 17a-4. 30 (e) (Blank). 31 (f) (Blank). 32 (g) The Department shall establish rules and regulations 33 concerning its operation of programs designed to meet the 34 goals of child safety and protection, family preservation, SB1591 Engrossed -79- LRB9111045EGfg 1 family reunification, and adoption, including but not limited 2 to: 3 (1) adoption; 4 (2) foster care; 5 (3) family counseling; 6 (4) protective services; 7 (5) (blank); 8 (6) homemaker service; 9 (7) return of runaway children; 10 (8) (blank); 11 (9) placement under Section 5-7 of the Juvenile 12 Court Act or Section 2-27, 3-28, 4-25 or 5-740 of the 13 Juvenile Court Act of 1987 in accordance with the federal 14 Adoption Assistance and Child Welfare Act of 1980; and 15 (10) interstate services. 16 Rules and regulations established by the Department shall 17 include provisions for training Department staff and the 18 staff of Department grantees, through contracts with other 19 agencies or resources, in alcohol and drug abuse screening 20 techniques approved by the Department of Human Services, as a 21 successor to the Department of Alcoholism and Substance 22 Abuse, for the purpose of identifying children and adults who 23 should be referred to an alcohol and drug abuse treatment 24 program for professional evaluation. 25 (h) If the Department finds that there is no appropriate 26 program or facility within or available to the Department for 27 a ward and that no licensed private facility has an adequate 28 and appropriate program or none agrees to accept the ward, 29 the Department shall create an appropriate individualized, 30 program-oriented plan for such ward. The plan may be 31 developed within the Department or through purchase of 32 services by the Department to the extent that it is within 33 its statutory authority to do. 34 (i) Service programs shall be available throughout the SB1591 Engrossed -80- LRB9111045EGfg 1 State and shall include but not be limited to the following 2 services: 3 (1) case management; 4 (2) homemakers; 5 (3) counseling; 6 (4) parent education; 7 (5) day care; and 8 (6) emergency assistance and advocacy. 9 In addition, the following services may be made available 10 to assess and meet the needs of children and families: 11 (1) comprehensive family-based services; 12 (2) assessments; 13 (3) respite care; and 14 (4) in-home health services. 15 The Department shall provide transportation for any of 16 the services it makes available to children or families or 17 for which it refers children or families. 18 (j) The Department may provide categories of financial 19 assistance and education assistance grants, and shall 20 establish rules and regulations concerning the assistance and 21 grants, to persons who adopt physically or mentally 22 handicapped, older and other hard-to-place children who (i) 23 immediately prior to their adoption were legal wards of the 24 Department or (ii) were determined eligible for financial 25 assistance with respect to a prior adoption and who become 26 available for adoption because the prior adoption has been 27 dissolved and the parental rights of the adoptive parents 28 have been terminated or because the child's adoptive parents 29 have died. The Department may also provide categories of 30 financial assistance and education assistance grants, and 31 shall establish rules and regulations for the assistance and 32 grants, to persons appointed guardian of the person under 33 Section 5-7 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 2-27, 3-28, 34 4-25 or 5-740 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 for children SB1591 Engrossed -81- LRB9111045EGfg 1 who were wards of the Department for 12 months immediately 2 prior to the appointment of the guardian. 3 The amount of assistance may vary, depending upon the 4 needs of the child and the adoptive parents, as set forth in 5 the annual assistance agreement. Special purpose grants are 6 allowed where the child requires special service but such 7 costs may not exceed the amounts which similar services would 8 cost the Department if it were to provide or secure them as 9 guardian of the child. 10 Any financial assistance provided under this subsection 11 is inalienable by assignment, sale, execution, attachment, 12 garnishment, or any other remedy for recovery or collection 13 of a judgment or debt. 14 (j-5) The Department shall not deny or delay the 15 placement of a child for adoption if an approved family is 16 available either outside of the Department region handling 17 the case, or outside of the State of Illinois. 18 (k) The Department shall accept for care and training 19 any child who has been adjudicated neglected or abused, or 20 dependent committed to it pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act 21 or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. 22 (l) Before July 1, 2000, the Department may provide, and 23 beginning July 1, 2000, the Department shall offer family 24 preservation services, as defined in Section 8.2 of the 25 Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act, to help families, 26 including adoptive and extended families. Family preservation 27 services shall be offered (i) to prevent the placement of 28 children in substitute care when the children can be cared 29 for at home or in the custody of the person responsible for 30 the children's welfare, (ii) to reunite children with their 31 families, or (iii) to maintain an adoptive placement. Family 32 preservation services shall only be offered when doing so 33 will not endanger the children's health or safety. With 34 respect to children who are in substitute care pursuant to SB1591 Engrossed -82- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, family preservation services 2 shall not be offered if a goal other than those of 3 subdivisions (A), (B), or (B-1) of subsection (2) of Section 4 2-28 of that Act has been set. Nothing in this paragraph 5 shall be construed to create a private right of action or 6 claim on the part of any individual or child welfare agency. 7 The Department shall notify the child and his family of 8 the Department's responsibility to offer and provide family 9 preservation services as identified in the service plan. The 10 child and his family shall be eligible for services as soon 11 as the report is determined to be "indicated". The 12 Department may offer services to any child or family with 13 respect to whom a report of suspected child abuse or neglect 14 has been filed, prior to concluding its investigation under 15 Section 7.12 of the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. 16 However, the child's or family's willingness to accept 17 services shall not be considered in the investigation. The 18 Department may also provide services to any child or family 19 who is the subject of any report of suspected child abuse or 20 neglect or may refer such child or family to services 21 available from other agencies in the community, even if the 22 report is determined to be unfounded, if the conditions in 23 the child's or family's home are reasonably likely to subject 24 the child or family to future reports of suspected child 25 abuse or neglect. Acceptance of such services shall be 26 voluntary. 27 The Department may, at its discretion except for those 28 children also adjudicated neglected or dependent, accept for 29 care and training any child who has been adjudicated 30 addicted, as a truant minor in need of supervision or as a 31 minor requiring authoritative intervention, under the 32 Juvenile Court Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, but no 33 such child shall be committed to the Department by any court 34 without the approval of the Department. A minor charged with SB1591 Engrossed -83- LRB9111045EGfg 1 a criminal offense under the Criminal Code of 1961 or 2 adjudicated delinquent shall not be placed in the custody of 3 or committed to the Department by any court, except a minor 4 less than 13 years of age committed to the Department under 5 Section 5-710 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. 6 (l-1) The legislature recognizes that the best interests 7 of the child require that the child be placed in the most 8 permanent living arrangement as soon as is practically 9 possible. To achieve this goal, the legislature directs the 10 Department of Children and Family Services to conduct 11 concurrent planning so that permanency may occur at the 12 earliest opportunity. Permanent living arrangements may 13 include prevention of placement of a child outside the home 14 of the family when the child can be cared for at home without 15 endangering the child's health or safety; reunification with 16 the family, when safe and appropriate, if temporary placement 17 is necessary; or movement of the child toward the most 18 permanent living arrangement and permanent legal status. 19 When determining reasonable efforts to be made with 20 respect to a child, as described in this subsection, and in 21 making such reasonable efforts, the child's health and safety 22 shall be the paramount concern. 23 When a child is placed in foster care, the Department 24 shall ensure and document that reasonable efforts were made 25 to prevent or eliminate the need to remove the child from the 26 child's home. The Department must make reasonable efforts to 27 reunify the family when temporary placement of the child 28 occurs unless otherwise required, pursuant to the Juvenile 29 Court Act of 1987. At any time after the dispositional 30 hearing where the Department believes that further 31 reunification services would be ineffective, it may request a 32 finding from the court that reasonable efforts are no longer 33 appropriate. The Department is not required to provide 34 further reunification services after such a finding. SB1591 Engrossed -84- LRB9111045EGfg 1 A decision to place a child in substitute care shall be 2 made with considerations of the child's health, safety, and 3 best interests. At the time of placement, consideration 4 should also be given so that if reunification fails or is 5 delayed, the placement made is the best available placement 6 to provide permanency for the child. 7 The Department shall adopt rules addressing concurrent 8 planning for reunification and permanency. The Department 9 shall consider the following factors when determining 10 appropriateness of concurrent planning: 11 (1) the likelihood of prompt reunification; 12 (2) the past history of the family; 13 (3) the barriers to reunification being addressed 14 by the family; 15 (4) the level of cooperation of the family; 16 (5) the foster parents' willingness to work with 17 the family to reunite; 18 (6) the willingness and ability of the foster 19 family to provide an adoptive home or long-term 20 placement; 21 (7) the age of the child; 22 (8) placement of siblings. 23 (m) The Department may assume temporary custody of any 24 child if: 25 (1) it has received a written consent to such 26 temporary custody signed by the parents of the child or 27 by the parent having custody of the child if the parents 28 are not living together or by the guardian or custodian 29 of the child if the child is not in the custody of either 30 parent, or 31 (2) the child is found in the State and neither a 32 parent, guardian nor custodian of the child can be 33 located. 34 If the child is found in his or her residence without a SB1591 Engrossed -85- LRB9111045EGfg 1 parent, guardian, custodian or responsible caretaker, the 2 Department may, instead of removing the child and assuming 3 temporary custody, place an authorized representative of the 4 Department in that residence until such time as a parent, 5 guardian or custodian enters the home and expresses a 6 willingness and apparent ability to ensure the child's health 7 and safety and resume permanent charge of the child, or until 8 a relative enters the home and is willing and able to ensure 9 the child's health and safety and assume charge of the child 10 until a parent, guardian or custodian enters the home and 11 expresses such willingness and ability to ensure the child's 12 safety and resume permanent charge. After a caretaker has 13 remained in the home for a period not to exceed 12 hours, the 14 Department must follow those procedures outlined in Section 15 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or 5-415 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. 16 The Department shall have the authority, responsibilities 17 and duties that a legal custodian of the child would have 18 pursuant to subsection (9) of Section 1-3 of the Juvenile 19 Court Act of 1987. Whenever a child is taken into temporary 20 custody pursuant to an investigation under the Abused and 21 Neglected Child Reporting Act, or pursuant to a referral and 22 acceptance under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 of a minor in 23 limited custody, the Department, during the period of 24 temporary custody and before the child is brought before a 25 judicial officer as required by Section 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or 26 5-415 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, shall have the 27 authority, responsibilities and duties that a legal custodian 28 of the child would have under subsection (9) of Section 1-3 29 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. 30 The Department shall ensure that any child taken into 31 custody is scheduled for an appointment for a medical 32 examination. 33 A parent, guardian or custodian of a child in the 34 temporary custody of the Department who would have custody of SB1591 Engrossed -86- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the child if he were not in the temporary custody of the 2 Department may deliver to the Department a signed request 3 that the Department surrender the temporary custody of the 4 child. The Department may retain temporary custody of the 5 child for 10 days after the receipt of the request, during 6 which period the Department may cause to be filed a petition 7 pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. If a petition is 8 so filed, the Department shall retain temporary custody of 9 the child until the court orders otherwise. If a petition is 10 not filed within the 10 day period, the child shall be 11 surrendered to the custody of the requesting parent, guardian 12 or custodian not later than the expiration of the 10 day 13 period, at which time the authority and duties of the 14 Department with respect to the temporary custody of the child 15 shall terminate. 16 (m-1) The Department may place children under 18 years 17 of age in a secure child care facility licensed by the 18 Department that cares for children who are in need of secure 19 living arrangements for their health, safety, and well-being 20 after a determination is made by the facility director and 21 the Director or the Director's designate prior to admission 22 to the facility subject to Section 2-27.1 of the Juvenile 23 Court Act of 1987. This subsection (m-1) does not apply to a 24 child who is subject to placement in a correctional facility 25 operated pursuant to Section 3-15-2 of the Unified Code of 26 Corrections. 27 (n) The Department may place children under 18 years of 28 age in licensed child care facilities when in the opinion of 29 the Department, appropriate services aimed at family 30 preservation have been unsuccessful and cannot ensure the 31 child's health and safety or are unavailable and such 32 placement would be for their best interest. Payment for 33 board, clothing, care, training and supervision of any child 34 placed in a licensed child care facility may be made by the SB1591 Engrossed -87- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Department, by the parents or guardians of the estates of 2 those children, or by both the Department and the parents or 3 guardians, except that no payments shall be made by the 4 Department for any child placed in a licensed child care 5 facility for board, clothing, care, training and supervision 6 of such a child that exceed the average per capita cost of 7 maintaining and of caring for a child in institutions for 8 dependent or neglected children operated by the Department. 9 However, such restriction on payments does not apply in cases 10 where children require specialized care and treatment for 11 problems of severe emotional disturbance, physical 12 disability, social adjustment, or any combination thereof and 13 suitable facilities for the placement of such children are 14 not available at payment rates within the limitations set 15 forth in this Section. All reimbursements for services 16 delivered shall be absolutely inalienable by assignment, 17 sale, attachment, garnishment or otherwise. 18 (o) The Department shall establish an administrative 19 review and appeal process for children and families who 20 request or receive child welfare services from the 21 Department. Children who are wards of the Department and are 22 placed by private child welfare agencies, and foster families 23 with whom those children are placed, shall be afforded the 24 same procedural and appeal rights as children and families in 25 the case of placement by the Department, including the right 26 to an initial review of a private agency decision by that 27 agency. The Department shall insure that any private child 28 welfare agency, which accepts wards of the Department for 29 placement, affords those rights to children and foster 30 families. The Department shall accept for administrative 31 review and an appeal hearing a complaint made by (i) a child 32 or foster family concerning a decision following an initial 33 review by a private child welfare agency or (ii) a 34 prospective adoptive parent who alleges a violation of SB1591 Engrossed -88- LRB9111045EGfg 1 subsection (j-5) of this Section. An appeal of a decision 2 concerning a change in the placement of a child shall be 3 conducted in an expedited manner. 4 (p) There is hereby created the Department of Children 5 and Family Services Emergency Assistance Fund from which the 6 Department may provide special financial assistance to 7 families which are in economic crisis when such assistance is 8 not available through other public or private sources and the 9 assistance is deemed necessary to prevent dissolution of the 10 family unit or to reunite families which have been separated 11 due to child abuse and neglect. The Department shall 12 establish administrative rules specifying the criteria for 13 determining eligibility for and the amount and nature of 14 assistance to be provided. The Department may also enter 15 into written agreements with private and public social 16 service agencies to provide emergency financial services to 17 families referred by the Department. Special financial 18 assistance payments shall be available to a family no more 19 than once during each fiscal year and the total payments to a 20 family may not exceed $500 during a fiscal year. 21 (q) The Department may receive and use, in their 22 entirety, for the benefit of children any gift, donation or 23 bequest of money or other property which is received on 24 behalf of such children, or any financial benefits to which 25 such children are or may become entitled while under the 26 jurisdiction or care of the Department. 27 The Department shall set up and administer no-cost, 28 interest-bearing savings accounts in appropriate financial 29 institutions ("individual accounts") for children for whom 30 the Department is legally responsible and who have been 31 determined eligible for Veterans' Benefits, Social Security 32 benefits, assistance allotments from the armed forces, court 33 ordered payments, parental voluntary payments, Supplemental 34 Security Income, Railroad Retirement payments, Black Lung SB1591 Engrossed -89- LRB9111045EGfg 1 benefits, or other miscellaneous payments. Interest earned 2 by each individual account shall be credited to the account, 3 unless disbursed in accordance with this subsection. 4 In disbursing funds from children's individual accounts, 5 the Department shall: 6 (1) Establish standards in accordance with State 7 and federal laws for disbursing money from children's 8 individual accounts. In all circumstances, the 9 Department's "Guardianship Administrator" or his or her 10 designee must approve disbursements from children's 11 individual accounts. The Department shall be responsible 12 for keeping complete records of all disbursements for 13 each individual account for any purpose. 14 (2) Calculate on a monthly basis the amounts paid 15 from State funds for the child's board and care, medical 16 care not covered under Medicaid, and social services; and 17 utilize funds from the child's individual account, as 18 covered by regulation, to reimburse those costs. 19 Monthly, disbursements from all children's individual 20 accounts, up to 1/12 of $13,000,000, shall be deposited 21 by the Department into the General Revenue Fund and the 22 balance over 1/12 of $13,000,000 into the DCFS Children's 23 Services Fund. 24 (3) Maintain any balance remaining after 25 reimbursing for the child's costs of care, as specified 26 in item (2). The balance shall accumulate in accordance 27 with relevant State and federal laws and shall be 28 disbursed to the child or his or her guardian, or to the 29 issuing agency. 30 (r) The Department shall promulgate regulations 31 encouraging all adoption agencies to voluntarily forward to 32 the Department or its agent names and addresses of all 33 persons who have applied for and have been approved for 34 adoption of a hard-to-place or handicapped child and the SB1591 Engrossed -90- LRB9111045EGfg 1 names of such children who have not been placed for adoption. 2 A list of such names and addresses shall be maintained by the 3 Department or its agent, and coded lists which maintain the 4 confidentiality of the person seeking to adopt the child and 5 of the child shall be made available, without charge, to 6 every adoption agency in the State to assist the agencies in 7 placing such children for adoption. The Department may 8 delegate to an agent its duty to maintain and make available 9 such lists. The Department shall ensure that such agent 10 maintains the confidentiality of the person seeking to adopt 11 the child and of the child. 12 (s) The Department of Children and Family Services may 13 establish and implement a program to reimburse Department and 14 private child welfare agency foster parents licensed by the 15 Department of Children and Family Services for damages 16 sustained by the foster parents as a result of the malicious 17 or negligent acts of foster children, as well as providing 18 third party coverage for such foster parents with regard to 19 actions of foster children to other individuals. Such 20 coverage will be secondary to the foster parent liability 21 insurance policy, if applicable. The program shall be funded 22 through appropriations from the General Revenue Fund, 23 specifically designated for such purposes. 24 (t) The Department shall perform home studies and 25 investigations and shall exercise supervision over visitation 26 as ordered by a court pursuant to the Illinois Marriage and 27 Dissolution of Marriage Act or the Adoption Act only if: 28 (1) an order entered by an Illinois court 29 specifically directs the Department to perform such 30 services; and 31 (2) the court has ordered one or both of the 32 parties to the proceeding to reimburse the Department for 33 its reasonable costs for providing such services in 34 accordance with Department rules, or has determined that SB1591 Engrossed -91- LRB9111045EGfg 1 neither party is financially able to pay. 2 The Department shall provide written notification to the 3 court of the specific arrangements for supervised visitation 4 and projected monthly costs within 60 days of the court 5 order. The Department shall send to the court information 6 related to the costs incurred except in cases where the court 7 has determined the parties are financially unable to pay. The 8 court may order additional periodic reports as appropriate. 9 (u) Whenever the Department places a child in a licensed 10 foster home, group home, child care institution, or in a 11 relative home, the Department shall provide to the caretaker: 12 (1) available detailed information concerning the 13 child's educational and health history, copies of 14 immunization records (including insurance and medical 15 card information), a history of the child's previous 16 placements, if any, and reasons for placement changes 17 excluding any information that identifies or reveals the 18 location of any previous caretaker; 19 (2) a copy of the child's portion of the client 20 service plan, including any visitation arrangement, and 21 all amendments or revisions to it as related to the 22 child; and 23 (3) information containing details of the child's 24 individualized educational plan when the child is 25 receiving special education services. 26 The caretaker shall be informed of any known social or 27 behavioral information (including, but not limited to, 28 criminal background, fire setting, perpetuation of sexual 29 abuse, destructive behavior, and substance abuse) necessary 30 to care for and safeguard the child. 31 (u-5) Effective July 1, 1995, only foster care 32 placements licensed as foster family homes pursuant to the 33 Child Care Act of 1969 shall be eligible to receive foster 34 care payments from the Department. Relative caregivers who, SB1591 Engrossed -92- LRB9111045EGfg 1 as of July 1, 1995, were approved pursuant to approved 2 relative placement rules previously promulgated by the 3 Department at 89 Ill. Adm. Code 335 and had submitted an 4 application for licensure as a foster family home may 5 continue to receive foster care payments only until the 6 Department determines that they may be licensed as a foster 7 family home or that their application for licensure is denied 8 or until September 30, 1995, whichever occurs first. 9 (v) The Department shall access criminal history record 10 information as defined in the Illinois Uniform Conviction 11 Information Act and information maintained in the 12 adjudicatory and dispositional record system as defined in 13 Section 2605-355 of the Department of State Police Law (20 14 ILCS 2605/2605-355) if the Department determines the 15 information is necessary to perform its duties under the 16 Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act, the Child Care Act 17 of 1969, and the Children and Family Services Act. The 18 Department shall provide for interactive computerized 19 communication and processing equipment that permits direct 20 on-line communication with the Department of State Police's 21 central criminal history data repository. The Department 22 shall comply with all certification requirements and provide 23 certified operators who have been trained by personnel from 24 the Department of State Police.

The General Assembly finds 13 that: 14 (1) Despite the large number of unemployed job 15 seekers, many employers are having difficulty matching 16 the skills they require with the skills of workers; a 17 similar problem exists in industries where overall 18 employment may not be expanding but there is an acute 19 need for skilled workers in particular occupations. 20 (2) The State of Illinois should foster local 21 economic development by linking the job training of 22 unemployed disadvantaged citizens with the workforce 23 needs of local business and industry. 24 (3) Employers often need assistance in developing 25 training resources that will provide work opportunities 26 for disadvantaged populations. 27 (b) Definitions. As used in this Section: 28 "Community based provider" means a not-for-profit 29 organization, with local boards of directors, that directly 30 provides job training services. 31 "Disadvantaged persons" has the same meaning as in Titles 32 II-A and II-C of the federal Job Training Partnership Act. 33 "Training partners" means a community-based provider and SB1591 Engrossed -97- LRB9111045EGfg 1 one or more employers who have established training and 2 placement linkages. 3 (c) From funds appropriated for that purpose, the 4 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs shall administer 5 a Job Training and Economic Development Grant Program.

Each grant shall be based on the cost of providing 17 the training services and the goals negotiated and made a 18 part of the contract between the Department and the training 19 partners. The goals shall include the number of people to be 20 trained, the number who stay in the program, the number who 21 complete the program, the number who enter employment, their 22 wages, and the number who retain employment. The level of 23 success in achieving employment, wage, and retention goals 24 shall be a primary consideration for determining contract 25 renewals and subsequent funding levels. In setting the 26 goals, due consideration shall be given to the education, 27 work experience, and job readiness of the trainees; their 28 barriers to employment; and the local job market. Periodic 29 payments under the contracts shall be based on the degree to 30 which the relevant negotiated goals have been met during the 31 payment period. 32 (Source: P.A. 90-474, eff. 1-1-98; 90-655, eff. 7-30-98; 33 90-758, eff. 8-14-98; 91-34, eff. 7-1-99; 91-239, eff. 34 1-1-00; revised 8-3-99.)

The Local Government Debt Reform Act is 26 amended by changing Section 15 as follows: 27 (30 ILCS 350/15) (from Ch. 17, par. 6915) 28 Sec. 15. Double-barrelled bonds. Whenever revenue bonds 29 have been authorized to be issued pursuant to applicable law 30 or whenever there exists for a governmental unit a revenue 31 source, the procedures set forth in this Section may be used 32 by a governing body. General obligation bonds may be issued SB1591 Engrossed -171- LRB9111045EGfg 1 in lieu of such revenue bonds as authorized, and general 2 obligation bonds may be issued payable from any revenue 3 source. Such general obligation bonds may be referred to as 4 "alternate bonds". Alternate bonds may be issued without any 5 referendum or backdoor referendum except as provided in this 6 Section, upon the terms provided in Section 10 of this Act 7 without reference to other provisions of law, but only upon 8 the conditions provided in this Section. Alternate bonds 9 shall not be regarded as or included in any computation of 10 indebtedness for the purpose of any statutory provision or 11 limitation except as expressly provided in this Section. 12 Such conditions are: 13 (a) Alternate bonds shall be issued for a lawful 14 corporate purpose. If issued in lieu of revenue bonds, 15 alternate bonds shall be issued for the purposes for which 16 such revenue bonds shall have been authorized. If issued 17 payable from a revenue source in the manner hereinafter 18 provided, which revenue source is limited in its purposes or 19 applications, then the alternate bonds shall be issued only 20 for such limited purposes or applications. Alternate bonds 21 may be issued payable from either enterprise revenues or 22 revenue sources, or both. 23 (b) Alternate bonds shall be subject to backdoor 24 referendum. The provisions of Section 5 of this Act shall 25 apply to such backdoor referendum, together with the 26 provisions hereof. The authorizing ordinance shall be 27 published in a newspaper of general circulation in the 28 governmental unit. Along with or as part of the authorizing 29 ordinance, there shall be published a notice of (1) the 30 specific number of voters required to sign a petition 31 requesting that the issuance of the alternate bonds be 32 submitted to referendum, (2) the time when such petition must 33 be filed, (3) the date of the prospective referendum, and 34 (4), with respect to authorizing ordinances adopted on or SB1591 Engrossed -172- LRB9111045EGfg 1 after January 1, 1991, a statement that identifies any 2 revenue source that will be used to pay the principal of and 3 interest on the alternate bonds. The clerk or secretary of 4 the governmental unit shall make a petition form available to 5 anyone requesting one. If no petition is filed with the 6 clerk or secretary within 30 days of publication of the 7 authorizing ordinance and notice, the alternate bonds shall 8 be authorized to be issued. But if within this 30 days 9 period, a petition is filed with such clerk or secretary 10 signed by electors numbering the greater of (i) 7.5% of the 11 registered voters in the governmental unit or (ii) 200 of 12 those registered voters or 15% of those registered voters, 13 whichever is less, asking that the issuance of such alternate 14 bonds be submitted to referendum, the clerk or secretary 15 shall certify such question for submission at an election 16 held in accordance with the general election law. The 17 question on the ballot shall include a statement of any 18 revenue source that will be used to pay the principal of and 19 interest on the alternate bonds. The alternate bonds shall be 20 authorized to be issued if a majority of the votes cast on 21 the question at such election are in favor thereof provided 22 that notice of the bond referendum, if held before July 1, 23 1999, has been given in accordance with the provisions of 24 Section 12-5 of the Election Code in effect at the time of 25 the bond referendum, at least 10 and not more than 45 days 26 before the date of the election, notwithstanding the time for 27 publication otherwise imposed by Section 12-5. Notices 28 required in connection with the submission of public 29 questions on or after July 1, 1999 shall be as set forth in 30 Section 12-5 of the Election Code. Backdoor referendum 31 proceedings for bonds and alternate bonds to be issued in 32 lieu of such bonds may be conducted at the same time. 33 (c) To the extent payable from enterprise revenues, such 34 revenues shall have been determined by the governing body to SB1591 Engrossed -173- LRB9111045EGfg 1 be sufficient to provide for or pay in each year to final 2 maturity of such alternate bonds all of the following: (1) 3 costs of operation and maintenance of the utility or 4 enterprise, but not including depreciation, (2) debt service 5 on all outstanding revenue bonds payable from such enterprise 6 revenues, (3) all amounts required to meet any fund or 7 account requirements with respect to such outstanding revenue 8 bonds, (4) other contractual or tort liability obligations, 9 if any, payable from such enterprise revenues, and (5) in 10 each year, an amount not less than 1.25 times debt service of 11 all (i) alternate bonds payable from such enterprise revenues 12 previously issued and outstanding and (ii) alternate bonds 13 proposed to be issued. To the extent payable from one or 14 more revenue sources, such sources shall have been determined 15 by the governing body to provide in each year, an amount not 16 less than 1.25 times debt service of all alternate bonds 17 payable from such revenue sources previously issued and 18 outstanding and alternate bonds proposed to be issued. The 19 conditions enumerated in this subsection (c) need not be met 20 for that amount of debt service provided for by the setting 21 aside of proceeds of bonds or other moneys at the time of the 22 delivery of such bonds. 23 (d) The determination of the sufficiency of enterprise 24 revenues or a revenue source, as applicable, shall be 25 supported by reference to the most recent audit of the 26 governmental unit, which shall be for a fiscal year ending 27 not earlier than 18 months previous to the time of issuance 28 of the alternate bonds. If such audit does not adequately 29 show such enterprise revenues or revenue source, as 30 applicable, or if such enterprise revenues or revenue source, 31 as applicable, are shown to be insufficient, then the 32 determination of sufficiency shall be supported by the report 33 of an independent accountant or feasibility analyst, the 34 latter having a national reputation for expertise in such SB1591 Engrossed -174- LRB9111045EGfg 1 matters, demonstrating the sufficiency of such revenues and 2 explaining, if appropriate, by what means the revenues will 3 be greater than as shown in the audit. Whenever such 4 sufficiency is demonstrated by reference to a schedule of 5 higher rates or charges for enterprise revenues or a higher 6 tax imposition for a revenue source, such higher rates, 7 charges or taxes shall have been properly imposed by an 8 ordinance adopted prior to the time of delivery of alternate 9 bonds. The reference to and acceptance of an audit or 10 report, as the case may be, and the determination of the 11 governing body as to sufficiency of enterprise revenues or a 12 revenue source shall be conclusive evidence that the 13 conditions of this Section have been met and that the 14 alternate bonds are valid. 15 (e) The enterprise revenues or revenue source, as 16 applicable, shall be in fact pledged to the payment of the 17 alternate bonds; and the governing body shall covenant, to 18 the extent it is empowered to do so, to provide for, collect 19 and apply such enterprise revenues or revenue source, as 20 applicable, to the payment of the alternate bonds and the 21 provision of not less than an additional .25 times debt 22 service. The pledge and establishment of rates or charges 23 for enterprise revenues, or the imposition of taxes in a 24 given rate or amount, as provided in this Section for 25 alternate bonds, shall constitute a continuing obligation of 26 the governmental unit with respect to such establishment or 27 imposition and a continuing appropriation of the amounts 28 received. All covenants relating to alternate bonds and the 29 conditions and obligations imposed by this Section are 30 enforceable by any bondholder of alternate bonds affected, 31 any taxpayer of the governmental unit, and the People of the 32 State of Illinois acting through the Attorney General or any 33 designee, and in the event that any such action results in an 34 order finding that the governmental unit has not properly set SB1591 Engrossed -175- LRB9111045EGfg 1 rates or charges or imposed taxes to the extent it is 2 empowered to do so or collected and applied enterprise 3 revenues or any revenue source, as applicable, as required by 4 this Act, the plaintiff in any such action shall be awarded 5 reasonable attorney's fees. The intent is that such 6 enterprise revenues or revenue source, as applicable, shall 7 be sufficient and shall be applied to the payment of debt 8 service on such alternate bonds so that taxes need not be 9 levied, or if levied need not be extended, for such payment. 10 Nothing in this Section shall inhibit or restrict the 11 authority of a governing body to determine the lien priority 12 of any bonds, including alternate bonds, which may be issued 13 with respect to any enterprise revenues or revenue source. 14 In the event that alternate bonds shall have been issued 15 and taxes, other than a designated revenue source, shall have 16 been extended pursuant to the general obligation, full faith 17 and credit promise supporting such alternate bonds, then the 18 amount of such alternate bonds then outstanding shall be 19 included in the computation of indebtedness of the 20 governmental unit for purposes of all statutory provisions or 21 limitations until such time as an audit of the governmental 22 unit shall show that the alternate bonds have been paid from 23 the enterprise revenues or revenue source, as applicable, 24 pledged thereto for a complete fiscal year. 25 Alternate bonds may be issued to refund or advance refund 26 alternate bonds without meeting any of the conditions set 27 forth in this Section, except that the term of the refunding 28 bonds shall not be longer than the term of the refunded bonds 29 and that the debt service payable in any year on the 30 refunding bonds shall not exceed the debt service payable in 31 such year on the refunded bonds. 32 Once issued, alternate bonds shall be and forever remain 33 until paid or defeased the general obligation of the 34 governmental unit, for the payment of which its full faith SB1591 Engrossed -176- LRB9111045EGfg 1 and credit are pledged, and shall be payable from the levy of 2 taxes as is provided in this Act for general obligation 3 bonds. 4 The changes made by this amendatory Act of 1990 do not 5 affect the validity of bonds authorized before September 1, 6 1990. 7 (Source: P.A. 90-812, eff. 1-26-99; 91-57, eff. 6-30-99; 8 91-493, eff. 8-13-99; revised 10-9-99.) 9 Section 30.

Any such payment for the 20 third and fourth quarters of any fiscal year shall be 21 adjusted to reflect actual eligible operating expenses for 22 preceding quarters of such fiscal year. However, no 23 participant shall receive an amount less than that which was 24 received in the immediate prior year, provided in the event 25 of a shortfall in the fund those participants receiving less 26 than their full allocation pursuant to Section 2-6 of this 27 Article shall be the first participants to receive an amount 28 not less than that received in the immediate prior year. 29 (c) No later than 180 days following the last day of the 30 Fiscal Year each participant shall provide the Department 31 with an audit prepared by a Certified Public Accountant 32 covering that Fiscal Year.

Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be 6 deemed to have met the 1% growth in base employment for 7 the first year in which they file employment records with 8 the Illinois Department of Employment Security. The 9 provisions added to this Section by Public Act 85-1200 10 (and restored by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as 11 declaratory of existing law and not as a new enactment. 12 If, in any year, the increase in base employment within 13 Illinois over the preceding year is less than 1%, the 14 additional credit shall be limited to that percentage 15 times a fraction, the numerator of which is .5% and the 16 denominator of which is 1%, but shall not exceed .5%. 17 The investment credit shall not be allowed to the extent 18 that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability in any tax 19 year below zero, nor may any credit for qualified 20 property be allowed for any year other than the year in 21 which the property was placed in service in Illinois. For 22 tax years ending on or after December 31, 1987, and on or 23 before December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for 24 the tax year in which the property is placed in service, 25 or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability 26 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability 27 or the liability as later amended, such excess may be 28 carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 29 taxable years following the excess credit years if the 30 taxpayer (i) makes investments which cause the creation 31 of a minimum of 2,000 full-time equivalent jobs in 32 Illinois, (ii) is located in an enterprise zone 33 established pursuant to the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act 34 and (iii) is certified by the Department of Commerce and SB1591 Engrossed -184- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Community Affairs as complying with the requirements 2 specified in clause (i) and (ii) by July 1, 1986. The 3 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs shall notify 4 the Department of Revenue of all such certifications 5 immediately. For tax years ending after December 31, 6 1988, the credit shall be allowed for the tax year in 7 which the property is placed in service, or, if the 8 amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability for that 9 year, whether it exceeds the original liability or the 10 liability as later amended, such excess may be carried 11 forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable 12 years following the excess credit years. The credit shall 13 be applied to the earliest year for which there is a 14 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year 15 that is available to offset a liability, earlier credit 16 shall be applied first. 17 (2) The term "qualified property" means property 18 which: 19 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, 20 including buildings and structural components of 21 buildings and signs that are real property, but not 22 including land or improvements to real property that 23 are not a structural component of a building such as 24 landscaping, sewer lines, local access roads, 25 fencing, parking lots, and other appurtenances; 26 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of 27 the Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year 28 property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that 29 Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this 30 subsection (e); 31 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in 32 Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; 33 (D) is used in Illinois by a taxpayer who is 34 primarily engaged in manufacturing, or in mining SB1591 Engrossed -185- LRB9111045EGfg 1 coal or fluorite, or in retailing; and 2 (E) has not previously been used in Illinois 3 in such a manner and by such a person as would 4 qualify for the credit provided by this subsection 5 (e) or subsection (f). 6 (3) For purposes of this subsection (e), 7 "manufacturing" means the material staging and production 8 of tangible personal property by procedures commonly 9 regarded as manufacturing, processing, fabrication, or 10 assembling which changes some existing material into new 11 shapes, new qualities, or new combinations.

For purposes of this 15 subsection (e), the term "retailing" means the sale of 16 tangible personal property or services rendered in 17 conjunction with the sale of tangible consumer goods or 18 commodities. 19 (4) The basis of qualified property shall be the 20 basis used to compute the depreciation deduction for 21 federal income tax purposes. 22 (5) If the basis of the property for federal income 23 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been 24 placed in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount 25 of such increase shall be deemed property placed in 26 service on the date of such increase in basis. 27 (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the 28 same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue 29 Code. 30 (7) If during any taxable year, any property ceases 31 to be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer 32 within 48 months after being placed in service, or the 33 situs of any qualified property is moved outside Illinois 34 within 48 months after being placed in service, the SB1591 Engrossed -186- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Personal Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for such 2 taxable year shall be increased. Such increase shall be 3 determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit which 4 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for 5 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such 6 property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such 7 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously 8 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (7), a 9 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting 10 from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be 11 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent 12 of such reduction. 13 (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by 14 law, the basis of qualified property shall not include 15 costs incurred after December 31, 2003, except for costs 16 incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on 17 or before December 31, 2003. 18 (9) Each taxable year, a partnership may elect to 19 pass through to its partners the credits to which the 20 partnership is entitled under this subsection (e) for the 21 taxable year. A partner may use the credit allocated to 22 him or her under this paragraph only against the tax 23 imposed in subsections (c) and (d) of this Section. If 24 the partnership makes that election, those credits shall 25 be allocated among the partners in the partnership in 26 accordance with the rules set forth in Section 704(b) of 27 the Internal Revenue Code, and the rules promulgated 28 under that Section, and the allocated amount of the 29 credits shall be allowed to the partners for that taxable 30 year.

The credit shall be .5% of the 14 basis for such property. The credit shall be available 15 only in the taxable year in which the property is placed 16 in service in the Enterprise Zone and shall not be 17 allowed to the extent that it would reduce a taxpayer's 18 liability for the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) 19 of this Section to below zero. For tax years ending on or 20 after December 31, 1985, the credit shall be allowed for 21 the tax year in which the property is placed in service, 22 or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability 23 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability 24 or the liability as later amended, such excess may be 25 carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 26 taxable years following the excess credit year. The 27 credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which 28 there is a liability. If there is credit from more than 29 one tax year that is available to offset a liability, the 30 credit accruing first in time shall be applied first. 31 (2) The term qualified property means property 32 which: 33 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, 34 including buildings and structural components of SB1591 Engrossed -188- LRB9111045EGfg 1 buildings; 2 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of 3 the Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year 4 property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that 5 Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this 6 subsection (f); 7 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in 8 Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; 9 (D) is used in the Enterprise Zone by the 10 taxpayer; and 11 (E) has not been previously used in Illinois 12 in such a manner and by such a person as would 13 qualify for the credit provided by this subsection 14 (f) or subsection (e). 15 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the 16 basis used to compute the depreciation deduction for 17 federal income tax purposes. 18 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income 19 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been 20 placed in service in the Enterprise Zone by the taxpayer, 21 the amount of such increase shall be deemed property 22 placed in service on the date of such increase in basis. 23 (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the 24 same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue 25 Code. 26 (6) If during any taxable year, any property ceases 27 to be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer 28 within 48 months after being placed in service, or the 29 situs of any qualified property is moved outside the 30 Enterprise Zone within 48 months after being placed in 31 service, the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of 32 this Section for such taxable year shall be increased. 33 Such increase shall be determined by (i) recomputing the 34 investment credit which would have been allowed for the SB1591 Engrossed -189- LRB9111045EGfg 1 year in which credit for such property was originally 2 allowed by eliminating such property from such 3 computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit 4 from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the 5 purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the basis 6 of qualified property resulting from a redetermination of 7 the purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of 8 qualified property to the extent of such reduction. 9 (g) Jobs Tax Credit; Enterprise Zone and Foreign Trade 10 Zone or Sub-Zone. 11 (1) A taxpayer conducting a trade or business in an 12 enterprise zone or a High Impact Business designated by 13 the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs 14 conducting a trade or business in a federally designated 15 Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone shall be allowed a credit 16 against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of 17 this Section in the amount of $500 per eligible employee 18 hired to work in the zone during the taxable year. 19 (2) To qualify for the credit: 20 (A) the taxpayer must hire 5 or more eligible 21 employees to work in an enterprise zone or federally 22 designated Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone during the 23 taxable year; 24 (B) the taxpayer's total employment within the 25 enterprise zone or federally designated Foreign 26 Trade Zone or Sub-Zone must increase by 5 or more 27 full-time employees beyond the total employed in 28 that zone at the end of the previous tax year for 29 which a jobs tax credit under this Section was 30 taken, or beyond the total employed by the taxpayer 31 as of December 31, 1985, whichever is later; and 32 (C) the eligible employees must be employed 33 180 consecutive days in order to be deemed hired for 34 purposes of this subsection.

The credit for 25 additional investments beyond the minimum investment by a 26 designated high impact business shall be available only 27 in the taxable year in which the property is placed in 28 service and shall not be allowed to the extent that it 29 would reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed 30 by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. 31 For tax years ending on or after December 31, 1987, the 32 credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the 33 property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the 34 credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether SB1591 Engrossed -192- LRB9111045EGfg 1 it exceeds the original liability or the liability as 2 later amended, such excess may be carried forward and 3 applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable years 4 following the excess credit year. The credit shall be 5 applied to the earliest year for which there is a 6 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax 7 year that is available to offset a liability, the credit 8 accruing first in time shall be applied first. 9 Changes made in this subdivision (h)(1) by Public 10 Act 88-670 restore changes made by Public Act 85-1182 and 11 reflect existing law. 12 (2) The term qualified property means property 13 which: 14 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, 15 including buildings and structural components of 16 buildings; 17 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of 18 the Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year 19 property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that 20 Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this 21 subsection (h); 22 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in 23 Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and 24 (D) is not eligible for the Enterprise Zone 25 Investment Credit provided by subsection (f) of this 26 Section. 27 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the 28 basis used to compute the depreciation deduction for 29 federal income tax purposes. 30 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income 31 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been 32 placed in service in a federally designated Foreign Trade 33 Zone or Sub-Zone located in Illinois by the taxpayer, the 34 amount of such increase shall be deemed property placed SB1591 Engrossed -193- LRB9111045EGfg 1 in service on the date of such increase in basis. 2 (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the 3 same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue 4 Code. 5 (6) If during any taxable year ending on or before 6 December 31, 1996, any property ceases to be qualified 7 property in the hands of the taxpayer within 48 months 8 after being placed in service, or the situs of any 9 qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48 10 months after being placed in service, the tax imposed 11 under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such 12 taxable year shall be increased. Such increase shall be 13 determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit which 14 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for 15 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such 16 property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such 17 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously 18 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a 19 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting 20 from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be 21 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent 22 of such reduction. 23 (7) Beginning with tax years ending after December 24 31, 1996, if a taxpayer qualifies for the credit under 25 this subsection (h) and thereby is granted a tax 26 abatement and the taxpayer relocates its entire facility 27 in violation of the explicit terms and length of the 28 contract under Section 18-183 of the Property Tax Code, 29 the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of this 30 Section shall be increased for the taxable year in which 31 the taxpayer relocated its facility by an amount equal to 32 the amount of credit received by the taxpayer under this 33 subsection (h). 34 (i) A credit shall be allowed against the tax imposed by SB1591 Engrossed -194- LRB9111045EGfg 1 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for the tax imposed 2 by subsections (c) and (d) of this Section. This credit 3 shall be computed by multiplying the tax imposed by 4 subsections (c) and (d) of this Section by a fraction, the 5 numerator of which is base income allocable to Illinois and 6 the denominator of which is Illinois base income, and further 7 multiplying the product by the tax rate imposed by 8 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section. 9 Any credit earned on or after December 31, 1986 under 10 this subsection which is unused in the year the credit is 11 computed because it exceeds the tax liability imposed by 12 subsections (a) and (b) for that year (whether it exceeds the 13 original liability or the liability as later amended) may be 14 carried forward and applied to the tax liability imposed by 15 subsections (a) and (b) of the 5 taxable years following the 16 excess credit year. This credit shall be applied first to 17 the earliest year for which there is a liability. If there 18 is a credit under this subsection from more than one tax year 19 that is available to offset a liability the earliest credit 20 arising under this subsection shall be applied first. 21 If, during any taxable year ending on or after December 22 31, 1986, the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this 23 Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under this 24 subsection (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax 25 shall also be reduced. Such reduction shall be determined by 26 recomputing the credit to take into account the reduced tax 27 imposed by subsection (c) and (d). If any portion of the 28 reduced amount of credit has been carried to a different 29 taxable year, an amended return shall be filed for such 30 taxable year to reduce the amount of credit claimed. 31 (j) Training expense credit. Beginning with tax years 32 ending on or after December 31, 1986, a taxpayer shall be 33 allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsection (a) 34 and (b) under this Section for all amounts paid or accrued, SB1591 Engrossed -195- LRB9111045EGfg 1 on behalf of all persons employed by the taxpayer in Illinois 2 or Illinois residents employed outside of Illinois by a 3 taxpayer, for educational or vocational training in 4 semi-technical or technical fields or semi-skilled or skilled 5 fields, which were deducted from gross income in the 6 computation of taxable income. The credit against the tax 7 imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be 1.6% of such 8 training expenses. For partners, shareholders of subchapter 9 S corporations, and owners of limited liability companies, if 10 the liability company is treated as a partnership for 11 purposes of federal and State income taxation, there shall be 12 allowed a credit under this subsection (j) to be determined 13 in accordance with the determination of income and 14 distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704 and 15 subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. 16 Any credit allowed under this subsection which is unused 17 in the year the credit is earned may be carried forward to 18 each of the 5 taxable years following the year for which the 19 credit is first computed until it is used. This credit shall 20 be applied first to the earliest year for which there is a 21 liability. If there is a credit under this subsection from 22 more than one tax year that is available to offset a 23 liability the earliest credit arising under this subsection 24 shall be applied first. 25 (k) Research and development credit. 26 Beginning with tax years ending after July 1, 1990, a 27 taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by 28 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for increasing 29 research activities in this State. The credit allowed 30 against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be 31 equal to 6 1/2% of the qualifying expenditures for increasing 32 research activities in this State. For partners, shareholders 33 of subchapter S corporations, and owners of limited liability 34 companies, if the liability company is treated as a SB1591 Engrossed -196- LRB9111045EGfg 1 partnership for purposes of federal and State income 2 taxation, there shall be allowed a credit under this 3 subsection to be determined in accordance with the 4 determination of income and distributive share of income 5 under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the Internal 6 Revenue Code. 7 For purposes of this subsection, "qualifying 8 expenditures" means the qualifying expenditures as defined 9 for the federal credit for increasing research activities 10 which would be allowable under Section 41 of the Internal 11 Revenue Code and which are conducted in this State, 12 "qualifying expenditures for increasing research activities 13 in this State" means the excess of qualifying expenditures 14 for the taxable year in which incurred over qualifying 15 expenditures for the base period, "qualifying expenditures 16 for the base period" means the average of the qualifying 17 expenditures for each year in the base period, and "base 18 period" means the 3 taxable years immediately preceding the 19 taxable year for which the determination is being made. 20 Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable 21 year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the 22 unused credit shown on its final completed return carried 23 over as a credit against the tax liability for the following 24 5 taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever 25 occurs first. 26 If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year 27 from 2 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the 28 earliest year will be applied first against the tax liability 29 for the given year. If a tax liability for the given year 30 still remains, the credit from the next earliest year will 31 then be applied, and so on, until all credits have been used 32 or no tax liability for the given year remains. Any 33 remaining unused credit or credits then will be carried 34 forward to the next following year in which a tax liability SB1591 Engrossed -197- LRB9111045EGfg 1 is incurred, except that no credit can be carried forward to 2 a year which is more than 5 years after the year in which the 3 expense for which the credit is given was incurred. 4 Unless extended by law, the credit shall not include 5 costs incurred after December 31, 2004, except for costs 6 incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or 7 before December 31, 2004. 8 No inference shall be drawn from this amendatory Act of 9 the 91st General Assembly in construing this Section for 10 taxable years beginning before January 1, 1999. 11 (l) Environmental Remediation Tax Credit. 12 (i) For tax years ending after December 31, 1997 13 and on or before December 31, 2001, a taxpayer shall be 14 allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsections 15 (a) and (b) of this Section for certain amounts paid for 16 unreimbursed eligible remediation costs, as specified in 17 this subsection.

The 25 credit must be claimed for the taxable year in which 26 Agency approval of the eligible remediation costs is 27 granted. The credit is not available to any taxpayer if 28 the taxpayer or any related party caused or contributed 29 to, in any material respect, a release of regulated 30 substances on, in, or under the site that was identified 31 and addressed by the remedial action pursuant to the Site 32 Remediation Program of the Environmental Protection Act. 33 After the Pollution Control Board rules are adopted 34 pursuant to the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act for SB1591 Engrossed -198- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the administration and enforcement of Section 58.9 of the 2 Environmental Protection Act, determinations as to credit 3 availability for purposes of this Section shall be made 4 consistent with those rules.

In the case of retailers 18 who report and pay the tax on a transaction by transaction 19 basis, as provided in this Section, such discount shall be 20 taken with each such tax remittance instead of when such 21 retailer files his periodic return. A retailer need not 22 remit that part of any tax collected by him to the extent 23 that he is required to remit and does remit the tax imposed 24 by the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, with respect to the 25 sale of the same property. 26 Where such tangible personal property is sold under a 27 conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale 28 wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, 29 is extended beyond the close of the period for which the 30 return is filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except 31 as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that 32 are required to be registered with an agency of this State), 33 may collect for each tax return period, only the tax SB1591 Engrossed -247- LRB9111045EGfg 1 applicable to that part of the selling price actually 2 received during such tax return period. 3 Except as provided in this Section, on or before the 4 twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall 5 file a return for the preceding calendar month. Such return 6 shall be filed on forms prescribed by the Department and 7 shall furnish such information as the Department may 8 reasonably require. 9 The Department may require returns to be filed on a 10 quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar 11 quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the 12 calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. 13 The taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for 14 each of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or 15 before the twentieth day of the following calendar month, 16 stating: 17 1. The name of the seller; 18 2. The address of the principal place of business 19 from which he engages in the business of selling tangible 20 personal property at retail in this State; 21 3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by 22 him during the preceding calendar month from sales of 23 tangible personal property by him during such preceding 24 calendar month, including receipts from charge and time 25 sales, but less all deductions allowed by law; 26 4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of 27 this Act; 28 5. The amount of tax due; 29 5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and 30 6. Such other reasonable information as the 31 Department may require. 32 If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after 33 the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, 34 the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to SB1591 Engrossed -248- LRB9111045EGfg 1 be due on the return shall be deemed assessed. 2 Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average 3 monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all 4 payments required by rules of the Department by electronic 5 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has 6 an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall 7 make all payments required by rules of the Department by 8 electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a 9 taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 10 or more shall make all payments required by rules of the 11 Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 12 2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 13 or more shall make all payments required by rules of the 14 Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual 15 tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities 16 under this Act, and under all other State and local 17 occupation and use tax laws administered by the Department, 18 for the immediately preceding calendar year. The term 19 "average monthly tax liability" means the sum of the 20 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other 21 State and local occupation and use tax laws administered by 22 the Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year 23 divided by 12. 24 Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the 25 Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make 26 payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required 27 to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make 28 those payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 29 1. 30 Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic 31 funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer 32 with the permission of the Department. 33 All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic 34 funds transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily SB1591 Engrossed -249- LRB9111045EGfg 1 make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those 2 payments in the manner authorized by the Department. 3 The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to 4 effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the 5 requirements of this Section. 6 Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly 7 tax liability to the Department under this Act, the 8 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax 9 Act, the Service Use Tax Act was $10,000 or more during the 10 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a 11 return with the Department each month by the 20th day of the 12 month next following the month during which such tax 13 liability is incurred and shall make payments to the 14 Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of 15 the month during which such liability is incurred. On and 16 after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax 17 liability to the Department under this Act, the Retailers' 18 Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the 19 Service Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more during the preceding 20 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the 21 Department each month by the 20th day of the month next 22 following the month during which such tax liability is 23 incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or 24 before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day oforthe month 25 during which such liability is incurred. If the month during 26 which such tax liability is incurred began prior to January 27 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of 28 the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or an amount 29 set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average 30 monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department for the 31 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month 32 of highest liability and the month of lowest liability in 33 such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax 34 liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985, and SB1591 Engrossed -250- LRB9111045EGfg 1 prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount 2 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the 3 month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same 4 calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during 5 which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after 6 January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment 7 shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual 8 liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability 9 for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the 10 month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on 11 or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or 12 begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in 13 an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability 14 for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same 15 calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during 16 which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after 17 January 1, 1989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment 18 shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual 19 liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability 20 for the same calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of 21 the taxpayer's actual liability for the quarter monthly 22 reporting period. The amount of such quarter monthly 23 payments shall be credited against the final tax liability of 24 the taxpayer's return for that month. Before October 1, 25 2000, once applicable, the requirement of the making of 26 quarter monthly payments to the Department shall continue 27 until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to the 28 Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters 29 (excluding the month of highest liability and the month of 30 lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such 31 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as 32 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding 33 complete calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. 34 However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a SB1591 Engrossed -251- LRB9111045EGfg 1 substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred 2 which causes the taxpayer to anticipate that his average 3 monthly tax liability for the reasonably foreseeable future 4 will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such 5 taxpayer may petition the Department for change in such 6 taxpayer's reporting status. On and after October 1, 2000, 7 once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter 8 monthly payments to the Department shall continue until such 9 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department during 10 the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the 11 month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability) 12 is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly 13 liability to the Department as computed for each calendar 14 quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarter period 15 is less than $20,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the 16 Department that a substantial change in the taxpayer's 17 business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to anticipate 18 that his average monthly tax liability for the reasonably 19 foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 threshold 20 stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department 21 for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. The 22 Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status 23 unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and 24 not likely to be long term. If any such quarter monthly 25 payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required by 26 this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties 27 and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due 28 and the amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and 29 timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously 30 made payments for that month to the Department in excess of 31 the minimum payments previously due as provided in this 32 Section. The Department shall make reasonable rules and 33 regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount and 34 quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other SB1591 Engrossed -252- LRB9111045EGfg 1 than a calendar monthly basis. 2 If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds 3 the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers' 4 Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the 5 Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return, 6 the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit 7 memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment, 8 which memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the 9 Department in payment of tax liability subsequently to be 10 remitted by the taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by 11 the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the 12 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act 13 or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable 14 rules and regulations to be prescribed by the Department, 15 except that if such excess payment is shown on an original 16 monthly return and is made after December 31, 1986, no credit 17 memorandum shall be issued, unless requested by the taxpayer. 18 If no such request is made, the taxpayer may credit such 19 excess payment against tax liability subsequently to be 20 remitted by the taxpayer to the Department under this Act, 21 the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax 22 Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable 23 rules and regulations prescribed by the Department. If the 24 Department subsequently determines that all or any part of 25 the credit taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the 26 taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced 27 by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the credit taken 28 and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be liable for 29 penalties and interest on such difference. 30 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly 31 return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to 32 the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may 33 authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis, 34 with the return for January, February, and March of a given SB1591 Engrossed -253- LRB9111045EGfg 1 year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for 2 April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of 3 such year; with the return for July, August and September of 4 a given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with 5 the return for October, November and December of a given year 6 being due by January 20 of the following year. 7 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly 8 or quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax 9 liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the 10 Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual 11 basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 12 20 of the following year. 13 Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and 14 substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as 15 monthly returns. 16 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act 17 concerning the time within which a retailer may file his 18 return, in the case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a 19 kind of business which makes him responsible for filing 20 returns under this Act, such retailer shall file a final 21 return under this Act with the Department not more than one 22 month after discontinuing such business. 23 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, 24 aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered 25 with an agency of this State, every retailer selling this 26 kind of tangible personal property shall file, with the 27 Department, upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the 28 Department, a separate return for each such item of tangible 29 personal property which the retailer sells, except that 30 where, in the same transaction, a retailer of aircraft, 31 watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers transfers more than 32 one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another 33 aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer retailer for 34 the purpose of resale, that seller for resale may report the SB1591 Engrossed -254- LRB9111045EGfg 1 transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or 2 trailers involved in that transaction to the Department on 3 the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting return form. 4 For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2, 5 Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of 6 the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal watercraft, 7 or any boat equipped with an inboard motor. 8 The transaction reporting return in the case of motor 9 vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with 10 an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the 11 Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois 12 Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the 13 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of 14 the selling price including the amount allowed by the 15 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed 16 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property, 17 if any, to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows 18 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance 19 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the 20 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer 21 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected 22 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or 23 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that 24 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the 25 place and date of the sale; a sufficient identification of 26 the property sold; such other information as is required in 27 Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other 28 information as the Department may reasonably require. 29 The transaction reporting return in the case of 30 watercraft and aircraft must show the name and address of the 31 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of 32 the selling price including the amount allowed by the 33 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed 34 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property, SB1591 Engrossed -255- LRB9111045EGfg 1 if any, to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows 2 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance 3 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the 4 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer 5 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected 6 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or 7 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that 8 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the 9 place and date of the sale, a sufficient identification of 10 the property sold, and such other information as the 11 Department may reasonably require. 12 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not 13 later than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item 14 that is being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any 15 time sooner than that if he chooses to do so. The 16 transaction reporting return and tax remittance or proof of 17 exemption from the tax that is imposed by this Act may be 18 transmitted to the Department by way of the State agency with 19 which, or State officer with whom, the tangible personal 20 property must be titled or registered (if titling or 21 registration is required) if the Department and such agency 22 or State officer determine that this procedure will expedite 23 the processing of applications for title or registration. 24 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer 25 shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit 26 satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is 27 the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the 28 Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax 29 receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is 30 satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such 31 purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State 32 officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible 33 personal property that is involved (if titling or 34 registration is required) in support of such purchaser's SB1591 Engrossed -256- LRB9111045EGfg 1 application for an Illinois certificate or other evidence of 2 title or registration to such tangible personal property. 3 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this 4 Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the 5 retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other 6 evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration 7 is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user 8 has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The 9 Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the 10 mandate of this paragraph. 11 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer 12 wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment 13 of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before 14 the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user 15 has not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify 16 to the fact of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the 17 Department being satisfied of the truth of such 18 certification) transmit the information required by the 19 transaction reporting return and the remittance for tax or 20 proof of exemption directly to the Department and obtain his 21 tax receipt or exemption determination, in which event the 22 transaction reporting return and tax remittance (if a tax 23 payment was required) shall be credited by the Department to 24 the proper retailer's account with the Department, but 25 without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount provided for in this 26 Section being allowed. When the user pays the tax directly 27 to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the same amount 28 and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax 29 had been remitted to the Department by the retailer. 30 Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the 31 selling price of tangible personal property which he sells 32 and the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal 33 property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof 34 to the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the SB1591 Engrossed -257- LRB9111045EGfg 1 purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When 2 filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax 3 to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the 4 tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use 5 tax which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to 6 the Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the 7 tax to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department 8 by such retailer. If the retailer has not previously 9 remitted the amount of such tax to the Department, he is 10 entitled to no deduction under this Act upon refunding such 11 tax to the purchaser. 12 Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall 13 also include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the 14 total tax covered by such return upon the selling price of 15 tangible personal property purchased by him at retail from a 16 retailer, but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not 17 collected from the retailer filing such return, and such 18 retailer shall remit the amount of such tax to the Department 19 when filing such return. 20 If experience indicates such action to be practicable, 21 the Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or 22 joint return which will enable retailers, who are required to 23 file returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' 24 Occupation Tax Act, to furnish all the return information 25 required by both Acts on the one form. 26 Where the retailer has more than one business registered 27 with the Department under separate registration under this 28 Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a 29 single return covering all such registered businesses, but 30 shall file separate returns for each such registered 31 business. 32 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department 33 shall pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a 34 special fund in the State Treasury which is hereby created, SB1591 Engrossed -258- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1% 2 tax on sales of food for human consumption which is to be 3 consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than 4 alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and food which has been 5 prepared for immediate consumption) and prescription and 6 nonprescription medicines, drugs, medical appliances and 7 insulin, urine testing materials, syringes and needles used 8 by diabetics. 9 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department 10 shall pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% 11 of the net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 12 6.25% general rate on the selling price of tangible personal 13 property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a 14 retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency of 15 this State's government. 16 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department 17 shall pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a 18 special fund in the State Treasury, 20% of the net revenue 19 realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate 20 on the selling price of tangible personal property, other 21 than tangible personal property which is purchased outside 22 Illinois at retail from a retailer and which is titled or 23 registered by an agency of this State's government. 24 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department 25 shall pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net 26 revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% 27 general rate on the selling price of tangible personal 28 property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a 29 retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency of 30 this State's government. 31 Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department 32 pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into 33 the Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% 34 and on and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid SB1591 Engrossed -259- LRB9111045EGfg 1 into the Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in 2 any fiscal year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, 3 as the case may be, of the moneys received by the Department 4 and required to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant 5 to Section 3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 6 of the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and 7 Section 9 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts being 8 hereinafter called the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2% 9 or 3.8%, as the case may be, of moneys being hereinafter 10 called the "Tax Act Amount", and (2) the amount transferred 11 to the Build Illinois Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax 12 Reform Fund shall be less than the Annual Specified Amount 13 (as defined in Section 3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax 14 Act), an amount equal to the difference shall be immediately 15 paid into the Build Illinois Fund from other moneys received 16 by the Department pursuant to the Tax Acts; and further 17 provided, that if on the last business day of any month the 18 sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount required to be deposited into 19 the Build Illinois Bond Account in the Build Illinois Fund 20 during such month and (2) the amount transferred during such 21 month to the Build Illinois Fund from the State and Local 22 Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less than 1/12 of the 23 Annual Specified Amount, an amount equal to the difference 24 shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois Fund from 25 other moneys received by the Department pursuant to the Tax 26 Acts; and, further provided, that in no event shall the 27 payments required under the preceding proviso result in 28 aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to 29 this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of the greater 30 of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual Specified Amount 31 for such fiscal year;

For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" 11 means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in 12 Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a 13 personal watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard 14 motor. 15 Any retailer who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft, 16 aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with 17 an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation 18 tax liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on 19 such transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise 20 required to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file 21 monthly or quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall 22 be required to file returns on an annual basis. 23 The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor 24 vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with 25 an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the 26 Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of The Illinois 27 Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the 28 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of 29 the selling price including the amount allowed by the 30 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed 31 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property, 32 if any, to the extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows 33 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance 34 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the SB1591 Engrossed -314- LRB9111045EGfg 1 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer 2 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected 3 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or 4 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that 5 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the 6 place and date of the sale; a sufficient identification of 7 the property sold; such other information as is required in 8 Section 5-402 of The Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other 9 information as the Department may reasonably require. 10 The transaction reporting return in the case of 11 watercraft or aircraft must show the name and address of the 12 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of 13 the selling price including the amount allowed by the 14 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed 15 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property, 16 if any, to the extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows 17 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance 18 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the 19 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer 20 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected 21 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or 22 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that 23 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the 24 place and date of the sale, a sufficient identification of 25 the property sold, and such other information as the 26 Department may reasonably require. 27 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not 28 later than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that 29 is being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time 30 sooner than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction 31 reporting return and tax remittance or proof of exemption 32 from the Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the 33 Department by way of the State agency with which, or State 34 officer with whom the tangible personal property must be SB1591 Engrossed -315- LRB9111045EGfg 1 titled or registered (if titling or registration is required) 2 if the Department and such agency or State officer determine 3 that this procedure will expedite the processing of 4 applications for title or registration. 5 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer 6 shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit 7 satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is 8 the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the 9 Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax 10 receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is 11 satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such 12 purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State 13 officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible 14 personal property that is involved (if titling or 15 registration is required) in support of such purchaser's 16 application for an Illinois certificate or other evidence of 17 title or registration to such tangible personal property. 18 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this 19 Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the 20 retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other 21 evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration 22 is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user 23 has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The 24 Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the 25 mandate of this paragraph. 26 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer 27 wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment 28 of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department 29 before the retailer is willing to take these actions and such 30 user has not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may 31 certify to the fact of such delay by the retailer and may 32 (upon the Department being satisfied of the truth of such 33 certification) transmit the information required by the 34 transaction reporting return and the remittance for tax or SB1591 Engrossed -316- LRB9111045EGfg 1 proof of exemption directly to the Department and obtain his 2 tax receipt or exemption determination, in which event the 3 transaction reporting return and tax remittance (if a tax 4 payment was required) shall be credited by the Department to 5 the proper retailer's account with the Department, but 6 without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount provided for in this 7 Section being allowed. When the user pays the tax directly 8 to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the same amount 9 and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax 10 had been remitted to the Department by the retailer. 11 Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return 12 period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal 13 property returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a 14 deduction under subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly 15 return, as the case may be, in case the seller had 16 theretofore included the receipts from the sale of such 17 tangible personal property in a return filed by him and had 18 paid the tax imposed by this Act with respect to such 19 receipts. 20 Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on 21 behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president, 22 vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly 23 accredited agent of such corporation. 24 Where the seller is a limited liability company, the 25 return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall 26 be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent 27 of the limited liability company. 28 Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing 29 the return under this Section shall, at the time of filing 30 such return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed 31 by this Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 32 and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar 33 year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the 34 retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records, SB1591 Engrossed -317- LRB9111045EGfg 1 preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying 2 data to the Department on request. Any prepayment made 3 pursuant to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the 4 amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In 5 the case of retailers who report and pay the tax on a 6 transaction by transaction basis, as provided in this 7 Section, such discount shall be taken with each such tax 8 remittance instead of when such retailer files his periodic 9 return. 10 Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly 11 tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax 12 Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax 13 Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be 14 remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was 15 $10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar 16 quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each 17 month by the 20th day of the month next following the month 18 during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make 19 payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd 20 and last day of the month during which such liability is 21 incurred. On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's 22 average monthly tax liability to the Department under this 23 Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the 24 Service Use Tax Act, excluding any liability for prepaid 25 sales tax to be remitted in accordance with Section 2d of 26 this Act, was $20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete 27 calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the Department 28 each month by the 20th day of the month next following the 29 month during which such tax liability is incurred and shall 30 make payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 31 22nd and last day of the month during which such liability is 32 incurred.

If the month during which such tax liability 12 is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987 and prior to 13 January 1, 1988, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 14 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 15 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar 16 month of the preceding year. If the month during which such 17 tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1988, 18 and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or after January 19 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of 20 the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the 21 taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the 22 preceding year. If the month during which such tax liability 23 is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and prior to 24 January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 25 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% 26 of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of 27 the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual liability 28 for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount of such 29 quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the final 30 tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month. 31 Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of 32 the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by 33 taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000 34 or more as determined in the manner provided above shall SB1591 Engrossed -319- LRB9111045EGfg 1 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to 2 the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar 3 quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the 4 month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such 5 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as 6 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding 7 complete calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. 8 However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a 9 substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred 10 which causes the taxpayer to anticipate that his average 11 monthly tax liability for the reasonably foreseeable future 12 will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such 13 taxpayer may petition the Department for a change in such 14 taxpayer's reporting status. On and after October 1, 2000, 15 once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter 16 monthly payments to the Department by taxpayers having an 17 average monthly tax liability of $20,000 or more as 18 determined in the manner provided above shall continue until 19 such taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department 20 during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding 21 the month of highest liability and the month of lowest 22 liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's 23 average monthly liability to the Department as computed for 24 each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar 25 quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a taxpayer 26 can show the Department that a substantial change in the 27 taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to 28 anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the 29 reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 30 threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the 31 Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. 32 The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status 33 unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and 34 not likely to be long term. If any such quarter monthly SB1591 Engrossed -320- LRB9111045EGfg 1 payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required by 2 this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties 3 and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due 4 as a payment and the amount of such quarter monthly payment 5 actually and timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has 6 previously made payments for that month to the Department in 7 excess of the minimum payments previously due as provided in 8 this Section. The Department shall make reasonable rules and 9 regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount and 10 quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other 11 than a calendar monthly basis. 12 Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make 13 quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who 14 is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit 15 prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average 16 in excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 17 complete calendar quarters, shall file a return with the 18 Department as required by Section 2f and shall make payments 19 to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last 20 day of the month during which such liability is incurred. If 21 the month during which such tax liability is incurred began 22 prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1985, 23 each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the 24 taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month 25 during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or 26 after January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount 27 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the 28 month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same 29 calendar month of the preceding calendar year. If the month 30 during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or 31 after January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount 32 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the 33 month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same 34 calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of such SB1591 Engrossed -321- LRB9111045EGfg 1 quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the final 2 tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month filed 3 under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be. Once 4 applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter monthly 5 payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph shall 6 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax 7 collections during the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters 8 is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter monthly payment is 9 not paid at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer 10 shall be liable for penalties and interest on such 11 difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously 12 made payments for that month in excess of the minimum 13 payments previously due. 14 If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the 15 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the 16 Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as 17 shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if 18 requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit 19 memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. 20 The credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be 21 assigned by the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this 22 Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the 23 Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and 24 regulations to be prescribed by the Department. If no such 25 request is made, the taxpayer may credit such excess payment 26 against tax liability subsequently to be remitted to the 27 Department under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service 28 Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance 29 with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by the 30 Department. If the Department subsequently determined that 31 all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to 32 the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount 33 shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between 34 the credit taken and that actually due, and that taxpayer SB1591 Engrossed -322- LRB9111045EGfg 1 shall be liable for penalties and interest on such 2 difference. 3 If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under 4 Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability 5 to the Department under this Act for the month which the 6 taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the 7 taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess. 8 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department 9 shall pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund 10 in the State treasury which is hereby created, the net 11 revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax on 12 sales of food for human consumption which is to be consumed 13 off the premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic 14 beverages, soft drinks and food which has been prepared for 15 immediate consumption) and prescription and nonprescription 16 medicines, drugs, medical appliances and insulin, urine 17 testing materials, syringes and needles used by diabetics. 18 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department 19 shall pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund, a 20 special fund in the State treasury which is hereby created, 21 4% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month from 22 the 6.25% general rate. 23 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department 24 shall pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net 25 revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% 26 general rate on the selling price of tangible personal 27 property. 28 Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department 29 pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into 30 the Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% 31 and on and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid 32 into the Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in 33 any fiscal year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, 34 as the case may be, of the moneys received by the Department SB1591 Engrossed -323- LRB9111045EGfg 1 and required to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant 2 to this Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the 3 Service Use Tax Act, and Section 9 of the Service Occupation 4 Tax Act, such Acts being hereinafter called the "Tax Acts" 5 and such aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case may be, of 6 moneys being hereinafter called the "Tax Act Amount", and (2) 7 the amount transferred to the Build Illinois Fund from the 8 State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall be less than the 9 Annual Specified Amount (as hereinafter defined), an amount 10 equal to the difference shall be immediately paid into the 11 Build Illinois Fund from other moneys received by the 12 Department pursuant to the Tax Acts; the "Annual Specified 13 Amount" means the amounts specified below for fiscal years 14 1986 through 1993: 15 Fiscal Year Annual Specified Amount 16 1986 $54,800,000 17 1987 $76,650,000 18 1988 $80,480,000 19 1989 $88,510,000 20 1990 $115,330,000 21 1991 $145,470,000 22 1992 $182,730,000 23 1993 $206,520,000; 24 and means the Certified Annual Debt Service Requirement (as 25 defined in Section 13 of the Build Illinois Bond Act) or the 26 Tax Act Amount, whichever is greater, for fiscal year 1994 27 and each fiscal year thereafter; and further provided, that 28 if on the last business day of any month the sum of (1) the 29 Tax Act Amount required to be deposited into the Build 30 Illinois Bond Account in the Build Illinois Fund during such 31 month and (2) the amount transferred to the Build Illinois 32 Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall 33 have been less than 1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an 34 amount equal to the difference shall be immediately paid into SB1591 Engrossed -324- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the Build Illinois Fund from other moneys received by the 2 Department pursuant to the Tax Acts; and, further provided, 3 that in no event shall the payments required under the 4 preceding proviso result in aggregate payments into the Build 5 Illinois Fund pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year 6 in excess of the greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) 7 the Annual Specified Amount for such fiscal year. The 8 amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund under clause (b) 9 of the first sentence in this paragraph shall be payable only 10 until such time as the aggregate amount on deposit under each 11 trust indenture securing Bonds issued and outstanding 12 pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act is sufficient, taking 13 into account any future investment income, to fully provide, 14 in accordance with such indenture, for the defeasance of or 15 the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and 16 interest on the Bonds secured by such indenture and on any 17 Bonds expected to be issued thereafter and all fees and costs 18 payable with respect thereto, all as certified by the 19 Director of the Bureau of the Budget.

The moneys received by the Department 2 pursuant to this Act and required to be deposited into the 3 Build Illinois Fund are subject to the pledge, claim and 4 charge set forth in Section 12 of the Build Illinois Bond 5 Act. 6 Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois 7 Fund as provided in the preceding paragraph or in any 8 amendment thereto hereafter enacted, the following specified 9 monthly installment of the amount requested in the 10 certificate of the Chairman of the Metropolitan Pier and 11 Exposition Authority provided under Section 8.25f of the 12 State Finance Act, but not in excess of sums designated as 13 "Total Deposit", shall be deposited in the aggregate from 14 collections under Section 9 of the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of 15 the Service Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Occupation 16 Tax Act, and Section 3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act 17 into the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund in the 18 specified fiscal years. 19 Fiscal Year Total Deposit 20 1993 $0 21 1994 53,000,000 22 1995 58,000,000 23 1996 61,000,000 24 1997 64,000,000 25 1998 68,000,000 26 1999 71,000,000 27 2000 75,000,000 28 2001 80,000,000 29 2002 84,000,000 30 2003 89,000,000 31 2004 93,000,000 32 2005 97,000,000 33 2006 102,000,000 34 2007 108,000,000 SB1591 Engrossed -326- LRB9111045EGfg 1 2008 115,000,000 2 2009 120,000,000 3 2010 126,000,000 4 2011 132,000,000 5 2012 138,000,000 6 2013 and 145,000,000 7 each fiscal year 8 thereafter that bonds 9 are outstanding under 10 Section 13.2 of the 11 Metropolitan Pier and 12 Exposition Authority 13 Act, but not after fiscal year 2029. 14 Beginning July 20, 1993 and in each month of each fiscal 15 year thereafter, one-eighth of the amount requested in the 16 certificate of the Chairman of the Metropolitan Pier and 17 Exposition Authority for that fiscal year, less the amount 18 deposited into the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund by 19 the State Treasurer in the respective month under subsection 20 (g) of Section 13 of the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition 21 Authority Act, plus cumulative deficiencies in the deposits 22 required under this Section for previous months and years, 23 shall be deposited into the McCormick Place Expansion Project 24 Fund, until the full amount requested for the fiscal year, 25 but not in excess of the amount specified above as "Total 26 Deposit", has been deposited. 27 Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois 28 Fund and the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund pursuant 29 to the preceding paragraphs or in any amendment thereto 30 hereafter enacted, each month the Department shall pay into 31 the Local Government Distributive Fund 0.4% of the net 32 revenue realized for the preceding month from the 5% general 33 rate or 0.4% of 80% of the net revenue realized for the 34 preceding month from the 6.25% general rate, as the case may SB1591 Engrossed -327- LRB9111045EGfg 1 be, on the selling price of tangible personal property which 2 amount shall, subject to appropriation, be distributed as 3 provided in Section 2 of the State Revenue Sharing Act.

If the total receipts of the 31 business as reported in the Federal income tax return do not 32 agree with the gross receipts reported to the Department of 33 Revenue for the same period, the retailer shall attach to his 34 annual return a schedule showing a reconciliation of the 2 SB1591 Engrossed -328- LRB9111045EGfg 1 amounts and the reasons for the difference. The retailer's 2 annual return to the Department shall also disclose the cost 3 of goods sold by the retailer during the year covered by such 4 return, opening and closing inventories of such goods for 5 such year, costs of goods used from stock or taken from stock 6 and given away by the retailer during such year, payroll 7 information of the retailer's business during such year and 8 any additional reasonable information which the Department 9 deems would be helpful in determining the accuracy of the 10 monthly, quarterly or annual returns filed by such retailer 11 as provided for in this Section. 12 If the annual information return required by this Section 13 is not filed when and as required, the taxpayer shall be 14 liable as follows: 15 (i) Until January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall be 16 liable for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due 17 from such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be 18 covered by the annual return for each month or fraction 19 of a month until such return is filed as required, the 20 penalty to be assessed and collected in the same manner 21 as any other penalty provided for in this Act. 22 (ii) On and after January 1, 1994, the taxpayer 23 shall be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4 24 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act. 25 The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest 26 ranking manager shall sign the annual return to certify the 27 accuracy of the information contained therein. Any person 28 who willfully signs the annual return containing false or 29 inaccurate information shall be guilty of perjury and 30 punished accordingly. The annual return form prescribed by 31 the Department shall include a warning that the person 32 signing the return may be liable for perjury. 33 The provisions of this Section concerning the filing of 34 an annual information return do not apply to a retailer who SB1591 Engrossed -329- LRB9111045EGfg 1 is not required to file an income tax return with the United 2 States Government. 3 As soon as possible after the first day of each month, 4 upon certification of the Department of Revenue, the 5 Comptroller shall order transferred and the Treasurer shall 6 transfer from the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel Tax 7 Fund an amount equal to 1.7% of 80% of the net revenue 8 realized under this Act for the second preceding month. 9 Beginning April 1, 2000, this transfer is no longer required 10 and shall not be made. 11 Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue 12 collected by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount 13 paid out during that month as refunds to taxpayers for 14 overpayment of liability. 15 For greater simplicity of administration, manufacturers, 16 importers and wholesalers whose products are sold at retail 17 in Illinois by numerous retailers, and who wish to do so, may 18 assume the responsibility for accounting and paying to the 19 Department all tax accruing under this Act with respect to 20 such sales, if the retailers who are affected do not make 21 written objection to the Department to this arrangement. 22 Any person who promotes, organizes, provides retail 23 selling space for concessionaires or other types of sellers 24 at the Illinois State Fair, DuQuoin State Fair, county fairs, 25 local fairs, art shows, flea markets and similar exhibitions 26 or events, including any transient merchant as defined by 27 Section 2 of the Transient Merchant Act of 1987, is required 28 to file a report with the Department providing the name of 29 the merchant's business, the name of the person or persons 30 engaged in merchant's business, the permanent address and 31 Illinois Retailers Occupation Tax Registration Number of the 32 merchant, the dates and location of the event and other 33 reasonable information that the Department may require.

The Department 13 shall impose this requirement when it finds that there is a 14 significant risk of loss of revenue to the State at such an 15 exhibition or event. Such a finding shall be based on 16 evidence that a substantial number of concessionaires or 17 other sellers who are not residents of Illinois will be 18 engaging in the business of selling tangible personal 19 property at retail at the exhibition or event, or other 20 evidence of a significant risk of loss of revenue to the 21 State. The Department shall notify concessionaires and other 22 sellers affected by the imposition of this requirement.

Such other reasonable information as the 26 Department may require. 27 If the operator's average monthly tax liability to the 28 Department does not exceed $200, the Department may authorize 29 his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis, with the 30 return for January, February and March of a given year being 31 due by April 30 of such year; with the return for April, May 32 and June of a given year being due by July 31 of such year; 33 with the return for July, August and September of a given 34 year being due by October 31 of such year, and with the SB1591 Engrossed -332- LRB9111045EGfg 1 return for October, November and December of a given year 2 being due by January 31 of the following year. 3 If the operator's average monthly tax liability to the 4 Department does not exceed $50, the Department may authorize 5 his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with the return 6 for a given year being due by January 31 of the following 7 year. 8 Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and 9 substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as 10 monthly returns. 11 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act 12 concerning the time within which an operator may file his 13 return, in the case of any operator who ceases to engage in a 14 kind of business which makes him responsible for filing 15 returns under this Act, such operator shall file a final 16 return under this Act with the Department not more than 1 17 month after discontinuing such business. 18 Where the same person has more than 1 business registered 19 with the Department under separate registrations under this 20 Act, such person shall not file each return that is due as a 21 single return covering all such registered businesses, but 22 shall file separate returns for each such registered 23 business. 24 In his return, the operator shall determine the value of 25 any consideration other than money received by him in 26 connection with the renting, leasing or letting of rooms in 27 the course of his business and he shall include such value in 28 his return. Such determination shall be subject to review 29 and revision by the Department in the manner hereinafter 30 provided for the correction of returns. 31 Where the operator is a corporation, the return filed on 32 behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president, 33 vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly 34 accredited agent of such corporation.

If in any subsequent taxable year for which the 6 applicant applies and qualifies for the exemption the 7 equalized assessed value of the residence is less than the 8 equalized assessed value in the existing base year (provided 9 that such equalized assessed value is not based on an 10 assessed value that results from a temporary irregularity in 11 the property that reduces the assessed value for one or more 12 taxable years), then that subsequent taxable year shall 13 become the base year until a new base year is established 14 under the terms of this paragraph. For taxable year 1999 15 only, the Chief County Assessment Officer shall review (i) 16 all taxable years for which the applicant applied and 17 qualified for the exemption and (ii) the existing base year. 18 The assessment officer shall select as the new base year the 19 year with the lowest equalized assessed value. An equalized 20 assessed value that is based on an assessed value that 21 results from a temporary irregularity in the property that 22 reduces the assessed value for one or more taxable years 23 shall not be considered the lowest equalized assessed value. 24 The selected year shall be the base year for taxable year 25 1999 and thereafter until a new base year is established 26 under the terms of this paragraph. 27 "Chief County Assessment Officer" means the County 28 Assessor or Supervisor of Assessments of the county in which 29 the property is located. 30 "Equalized assessed value" means the assessed value as 31 equalized by the Illinois Department of Revenue. 32 "Household" means the applicant, the spouse of the 33 applicant, and all persons using the residence of the 34 applicant as their principal place of residence. SB1591 Engrossed -344- LRB9111045EGfg 1 "Household income" means the combined income of the 2 members of a household for the calendar year preceding the 3 taxable year. 4 "Income" has the same meaning as provided in Section 3.07 5 of the Senior Citizens and Disabled Persons Property Tax 6 Relief and Pharmaceutical Assistance Act. 7 "Internal Revenue Code of 1986" means the United States 8 Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or any successor law or laws 9 relating to federal income taxes in effect for the year 10 preceding the taxable year. 11 "Life care facility that qualifies as a cooperative" 12 means a facility as defined in Section 2 of the Life Care 13 Facilities Act. 14 "Residence" means the principal dwelling place and 15 appurtenant structures used for residential purposes in this 16 State occupied on January 1 of the taxable year by a 17 household and so much of the surrounding land, constituting 18 the parcel upon which the dwelling place is situated, as is 19 used for residential purposes.

This homestead exemption shall also apply to a 4 leasehold interest in a parcel of property improved with a 5 permanent structure that is a single family residence that is 6 occupied as a residence by a person who (i) is 65 years of 7 age or older during the taxable year, (ii) has a household 8 income of $35,000 or less prior to taxable year 1999 or 9 $40,000 or less in taxable year 1999 and thereafter, (iii) 10 has a legal or equitable ownership interest in the property 11 as lessee, and (iv) is liable for the payment of real 12 property taxes on that property. 13 The amount of this exemption shall be the equalized 14 assessed value of the residence in the taxable year for which 15 application is made minus the base amount. 16 When the applicant is a surviving spouse of an applicant 17 for a prior year for the same residence for which an 18 exemption under this Section has been granted, the base year 19 and base amount for that residence are the same as for the 20 applicant for the prior year. 21 Each year at the time the assessment books are certified 22 to the County Clerk, the Board of Review or Board of Appeals 23 shall give to the County Clerk a list of the assessed values 24 of improvements on each parcel qualifying for this exemption 25 that were added after the base year for this parcel and that 26 increased the assessed value of the property. 27 In the case of land improved with an apartment building 28 owned and operated as a cooperative or a building that is a 29 life care facility that qualifies as a cooperative, the 30 maximum reduction from the equalized assessed value of the 31 property is limited to the sum of the reductions calculated 32 for each unit occupied as a residence by a person or persons 33 65 years of age or older with a household income of $35,000 34 or less prior to taxable year 1999 or $40,000 or less in SB1591 Engrossed -346- LRB9111045EGfg 1 taxable year 1999 and thereafter who is liable, by contract 2 with the owner or owners of record, for paying real property 3 taxes on the property and who is an owner of record of a 4 legal or equitable interest in the cooperative apartment 5 building, other than a leasehold interest. In the instance of 6 a cooperative where a homestead exemption has been granted 7 under this Section, the cooperative association or its 8 management firm shall credit the savings resulting from that 9 exemption only to the apportioned tax liability of the owner 10 who qualified for the exemption. Any person who willfully 11 refuses to credit that savings to an owner who qualifies for 12 the exemption is guilty of a Class B misdemeanor. 13 When a homestead exemption has been granted under this 14 Section and an applicant then becomes a resident of a 15 facility licensed under the Nursing Home Care Act, the 16 exemption shall be granted in subsequent years so long as the 17 residence (i) continues to be occupied by the qualified 18 applicant's spouse or (ii) if remaining unoccupied, is still 19 owned by the qualified applicant for the homestead exemption. 20 Beginning January 1, 1997, when an individual dies who 21 would have qualified for an exemption under this Section, and 22 the surviving spouse does not independently qualify for this 23 exemption because of age, the exemption under this Section 24 shall be granted to the surviving spouse for the taxable year 25 preceding and the taxable year of the death, provided that, 26 except for age, the surviving spouse meets all other 27 qualifications for the granting of this exemption for those 28 years. 29 When married persons maintain separate residences, the 30 exemption provided for in this Section may be claimed by only 31 one of such persons and for only one residence. 32 For taxable year 1994 only, in counties having less than 33 3,000,000 inhabitants, to receive the exemption, a person 34 shall submit an application by February 15, 1995 to the Chief SB1591 Engrossed -347- LRB9111045EGfg 1 County Assessment Officer of the county in which the property 2 is located. In counties having 3,000,000 or more 3 inhabitants, for taxable year 1994 and all subsequent taxable 4 years, to receive the exemption, a person may submit an 5 application to the Chief County Assessment Officer of the 6 county in which the property is located during such period as 7 may be specified by the Chief County Assessment Officer. The 8 Chief County Assessment Officer in counties of 3,000,000 or 9 more inhabitants shall annually give notice of the 10 application period by mail or by publication. In counties 11 having less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, beginning with 12 taxable year 1995 and thereafter, to receive the exemption, a 13 person shall submit an application by July 1 of each taxable 14 year to the Chief County Assessment Officer of the county in 15 which the property is located. A county may, by ordinance, 16 establish a date for submission of applications that is 17 different than July 1. The applicant shall submit with the 18 application an affidavit of the applicant's total household 19 income, age, marital status (and if married the name and 20 address of the applicant's spouse, if known), and principal 21 dwelling place of members of the household on January 1 of 22 the taxable year. The Department shall establish, by rule, a 23 method for verifying the accuracy of affidavits filed by 24 applicants under this Section. The applications shall be 25 clearly marked as applications for the Senior Citizens 26 Assessment Freeze Homestead Exemption. 27 Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, in 28 counties having fewer than 3,000,000 inhabitants, if an 29 applicant fails to file the application required by this 30 Section in a timely manner and this failure to file is due to 31 a mental or physical condition sufficiently severe so as to 32 render the applicant incapable of filing the application in a 33 timely manner, the Chief County Assessment Officer may extend 34 the filing deadline for a period of 30 days after the SB1591 Engrossed -348- LRB9111045EGfg 1 applicant regains the capability to file the application, but 2 in no case may the filing deadline be extended beyond 3 3 months of the original filing deadline. In order to receive 4 the extension provided in this paragraph, the applicant shall 5 provide the Chief County Assessment Officer with a signed 6 statement from the applicant's physician stating the nature 7 and extent of the condition, that, in the physician's 8 opinion, the condition was so severe that it rendered the 9 applicant incapable of filing the application in a timely 10 manner, and the date on which the applicant regained the 11 capability to file the application. 12 Beginning January 1, 1998, notwithstanding any other 13 provision to the contrary, in counties having fewer than 14 3,000,000 inhabitants, if an applicant fails to file the 15 application required by this Section in a timely manner and 16 this failure to file is due to a mental or physical condition 17 sufficiently severe so as to render the applicant incapable 18 of filing the application in a timely manner, the Chief 19 County Assessment Officer may extend the filing deadline for 20 a period of 3 months. In order to receive the extension 21 provided in this paragraph, the applicant shall provide the 22 Chief County Assessment Officer with a signed statement from 23 the applicant's physician stating the nature and extent of 24 the condition, and that, in the physician's opinion, the 25 condition was so severe that it rendered the applicant 26 incapable of filing the application in a timely manner. 27 In counties having less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, if an 28 applicant was denied an exemption in taxable year 1994 and 29 the denial occurred due to an error on the part of an 30 assessment official, or his or her agent or employee, then 31 beginning in taxable year 1997 the applicant's base year, for 32 purposes of determining the amount of the exemption, shall be 33 1993 rather than 1994. In addition, in taxable year 1997, the 34 applicant's exemption shall also include an amount equal to SB1591 Engrossed -349- LRB9111045EGfg 1 (i) the amount of any exemption denied to the applicant in 2 taxable year 1995 as a result of using 1994, rather than 3 1993, as the base year, (ii) the amount of any exemption 4 denied to the applicant in taxable year 1996 as a result of 5 using 1994, rather than 1993, as the base year, and (iii) the 6 amount of the exemption erroneously denied for taxable year 7 1994. 8 For purposes of this Section, a person who will be 65 9 years of age during the current taxable year shall be 10 eligible to apply for the homestead exemption during that 11 taxable year. Application shall be made during the 12 application period in effect for the county of his or her 13 residence. 14 The Chief County Assessment Officer may determine the 15 eligibility of a life care facility that qualifies as a 16 cooperative to receive the benefits provided by this Section 17 by use of an affidavit, application, visual inspection, 18 questionnaire, or other reasonable method in order to insure 19 that the tax savings resulting from the exemption are 20 credited by the management firm to the apportioned tax 21 liability of each qualifying resident. The Chief County 22 Assessment Officer may request reasonable proof that the 23 management firm has so credited that exemption. 24 Except as provided in this Section, all information 25 received by the chief county assessment officer or the 26 Department from applications filed under this Section, or 27 from any investigation conducted under the provisions of this 28 Section, shall be confidential, except for official purposes 29 or pursuant to official procedures for collection of any 30 State or local tax or enforcement of any civil or criminal 31 penalty or sanction imposed by this Act or by any statute or 32 ordinance imposing a State or local tax. Any person who 33 divulges any such information in any manner, except in 34 accordance with a proper judicial order, is guilty of a Class SB1591 Engrossed -350- LRB9111045EGfg 1 A misdemeanor. 2 Nothing contained in this Section shall prevent the 3 Director or chief county assessment officer from publishing 4 or making available reasonable statistics concerning the 5 operation of the exemption contained in this Section in which 6 the contents of claims are grouped into aggregates in such a 7 way that information contained in any individual claim shall 8 not be disclosed. 9 (d) Each Chief County Assessment Officer shall annually 10 publish a notice of availability of the exemption provided 11 under this Section. The notice shall be published at least 12 60 days but no more than 75 days prior to the date on which 13 the application must be submitted to the Chief County 14 Assessment Officer of the county in which the property is 15 located. The notice shall appear in a newspaper of general 16 circulation in the county. 17 (Source: P.A. 90-14, eff. 7-1-97; 90-204, eff. 7-25-97; 18 90-523, eff. 11-13-97; 90-524, eff. 1-1-98; 90-531, eff. 19 1-1-98; 90-655, eff. 7-30-98; 91-45, eff. 6-30-99; 91-56, 20 eff. 6-30-99; revised 9-27-99.) 21 Section 39.

However, a person operating a motor vehicle into the 7 State, may transport motor fuel in the ordinary fuel tank 8 attached to the motor vehicle for the operation of the motor 9 vehicle, without being considered a distributor. Any 10 railroad licensed as a bulk user and registered under Section 11 18c-7201 of the Illinois Vehicle Code may deliver special 12 fuel directly into the fuel supply tank of a locomotive 13 owned, operated, or controlled by any other railroad 14 registered under Section 18c-7201 of the Illinois Vehicle 15 Code without being considered a distributor. 16 (Source: P.A. 91-173, eff. 1-1-00; 91-198, eff. 7-20-99; 17 revised 10-12-99.) 18 (35 ILCS 505/1.14) (from Ch. 120, par. 417.14) 19 Sec. 1.14.

Except as provided in Sections 8a and 13a.6 and 12 items 13, 14, 15, and 16 of Section 15, all money received by 13 the Department under this Act, including payments made to the 14 Department by member jurisdictions participating in the 15 International Fuel Tax Agreement, shall be deposited in a 16 special fund in the State treasury, to be known as the "Motor 17 Fuel Tax Fund", and shall be used as follows: 18 (a) 2 1/2 cents per gallon of the tax collected on 19 special fuel under paragraph (b) of Section 2 and Section 13a 20 of this Act shall be transferred to the State Construction 21 Account Fund in the State Treasury; 22 (b) $420,000 shall be transferred each month to the 23 State Boating Act Fund to be used by the Department of 24 Natural Resources for the purposes specified in Article X of 25 the Boat Registration and Safety Act; 26 (c) $2,250,000 shall be transferred each month to the 27 Grade Crossing Protection Fund to be used as follows: not 28 less than $6,000,000 each fiscal year shall be used for the 29 construction or reconstruction of rail highway grade 30 separation structures; beginning with fiscal year 1997 and 31 ending in fiscal year 2003, $1,500,000, and $750,000 in 32 fiscal year 2004 and each fiscal year thereafter shall be 33 transferred to the Transportation Regulatory Fund and shall SB1591 Engrossed -353- LRB9111045EGfg 1 be accounted for as part of the rail carrier portion of such 2 funds and shall be used to pay the cost of administration of 3 the Illinois Commerce Commission's railroad safety program in 4 connection with its duties under subsection (3) of Section 5 18c-7401 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, with the remainder to 6 be used by the Department of Transportation upon order of the 7 Illinois Commerce Commission, to pay that part of the cost 8 apportioned by such Commission to the State to cover the 9 interest of the public in the use of highways, roads or 10 streets in the county highway system, township and district 11 road system or municipal street system as defined in the 12 Illinois Highway Code, as the same may from time to time be 13 amended, for separation of grades, for installation, 14 construction or reconstruction of crossing protection or 15 reconstruction, alteration, relocation including construction 16 or improvement of any existing highway necessary for access 17 to property or improvement of any grade crossing including 18 the necessary highway approaches thereto of any railroad 19 across the highway or public road, as provided for in and in 20 accordance with Section 18c-7401 of the Illinois Vehicle 21 Code. In entering orders for projects for which payments 22 from the Grade Crossing Protection Fund will be made, the 23 Commission shall account for expenditures authorized by the 24 orders on a cash rather than an accrual basis. For purposes 25 of this requirement an "accrual basis" assumes that the total 26 cost of the project is expended in the fiscal year in which 27 the order is entered, while a "cash basis" allocates the cost 28 of the project among fiscal years as expenditures are 29 actually made. To meet the requirements of this subsection, 30 the Illinois Commerce Commission shall develop annual and 31 5-year project plans of rail crossing capital improvements 32 that will be paid for with moneys from the Grade Crossing 33 Protection Fund. The annual project plan shall identify 34 projects for the succeeding fiscal year and the 5-year SB1591 Engrossed -354- LRB9111045EGfg 1 project plan shall identify projects for the 5 directly 2 succeeding fiscal years.

The Department shall certify these 4 amounts to the Comptroller by the 15th day of each month; 5 the Comptroller shall cause orders to be drawn for such 6 amounts, and the Treasurer shall administer those amounts 7 on or before the last day of each month; 8 (e) after allocations for the purposes set forth in 9 subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d), the remaining amount shall 10 be apportioned as follows: 11 (1) Until January 1, 2000, 58.4%, and beginning 12 January 1, 2000, 45.6% shall be deposited as follows: 13 (A) 37% into the State Construction Account 14 Fund, and 15 (B) 63% into the Road Fund, $1,250,000 of 16 which shall be reserved each month for the 17 Department of Transportation to be used in 18 accordance with the provisions of Sections 6-901 19 through 6-906 of the Illinois Highway Code; 20 (2) Until January 1, 2000, 41.6%, and beginning 21 January 1, 2000, 54.4% shall be transferred to the 22 Department of Transportation to be distributed as 23 follows: 24 (A) 49.10% to the municipalities of the State, 25 (B) 16.74% to the counties of the State having 26 1,000,000 or more inhabitants, 27 (C) 18.27% to the counties of the State having 28 less than 1,000,000 inhabitants, 29 (D) 15.89% to the road districts of the State. 30 As soon as may be after the first day of each month the 31 Department of Transportation shall allot to each municipality 32 its share of the amount apportioned to the several 33 municipalities which shall be in proportion to the population 34 of such municipalities as determined by the last preceding SB1591 Engrossed -356- LRB9111045EGfg 1 municipal census if conducted by the Federal Government or 2 Federal census. If territory is annexed to any municipality 3 subsequent to the time of the last preceding census the 4 corporate authorities of such municipality may cause a census 5 to be taken of such annexed territory and the population so 6 ascertained for such territory shall be added to the 7 population of the municipality as determined by the last 8 preceding census for the purpose of determining the allotment 9 for that municipality. If the population of any municipality 10 was not determined by the last Federal census preceding any 11 apportionment, the apportionment to such municipality shall 12 be in accordance with any census taken by such municipality. 13 Any municipal census used in accordance with this Section 14 shall be certified to the Department of Transportation by the 15 clerk of such municipality, and the accuracy thereof shall be 16 subject to approval of the Department which may make such 17 corrections as it ascertains to be necessary. 18 As soon as may be after the first day of each month the 19 Department of Transportation shall allot to each county its 20 share of the amount apportioned to the several counties of 21 the State as herein provided. Each allotment to the several 22 counties having less than 1,000,000 inhabitants shall be in 23 proportion to the amount of motor vehicle license fees 24 received from the residents of such counties, respectively, 25 during the preceding calendar year. The Secretary of State 26 shall, on or before April 15 of each year, transmit to the 27 Department of Transportation a full and complete report 28 showing the amount of motor vehicle license fees received 29 from the residents of each county, respectively, during the 30 preceding calendar year. The Department of Transportation 31 shall, each month, use for allotment purposes the last such 32 report received from the Secretary of State. 33 As soon as may be after the first day of each month, the 34 Department of Transportation shall allot to the several SB1591 Engrossed -357- LRB9111045EGfg 1 counties their share of the amount apportioned for the use of 2 road districts. The allotment shall be apportioned among the 3 several counties in the State in the proportion which the 4 total mileage of township or district roads in the respective 5 counties bears to the total mileage of all township and 6 district roads in the State. Funds allotted to the respective 7 counties for the use of road districts therein shall be 8 allocated to the several road districts in the county in the 9 proportion which the total mileage of such township or 10 district roads in the respective road districts bears to the 11 total mileage of all such township or district roads in the 12 county. After July 1 of any year, no allocation shall be 13 made for any road district unless it levied a tax for road 14 and bridge purposes in an amount which will require the 15 extension of such tax against the taxable property in any 16 such road district at a rate of not less than either .08% of 17 the value thereof, based upon the assessment for the year 18 immediately prior to the year in which such tax was levied 19 and as equalized by the Department of Revenue or, in DuPage 20 County, an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per mile 21 of road under the jurisdiction of the road district, 22 whichever is less. If any road district has levied a special 23 tax for road purposes pursuant to Sections 6-601, 6-602 and 24 6-603 of the Illinois Highway Code, and such tax was levied 25 in an amount which would require extension at a rate of not 26 less than .08% of the value of the taxable property thereof, 27 as equalized or assessed by the Department of Revenue, or, in 28 DuPage County, an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per 29 mile of road under the jurisdiction of the road district, 30 whichever is less, such levy shall, however, be deemed a 31 proper compliance with this Section and shall qualify such 32 road district for an allotment under this Section. If a 33 township has transferred to the road and bridge fund money 34 which, when added to the amount of any tax levy of the road SB1591 Engrossed -358- LRB9111045EGfg 1 district would be the equivalent of a tax levy requiring 2 extension at a rate of at least .08%, or, in DuPage County, 3 an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per mile of road 4 under the jurisdiction of the road district, whichever is 5 less, such transfer, together with any such tax levy, shall 6 be deemed a proper compliance with this Section and shall 7 qualify the road district for an allotment under this 8 Section. 9 In counties in which a property tax extension limitation 10 is imposed under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law, 11 road districts may retain their entitlement to a motor fuel 12 tax allotment if, at the time the property tax extension 13 limitation was imposed, the road district was levying a road 14 and bridge tax at a rate sufficient to entitle it to a motor 15 fuel tax allotment and continues to levy the maximum 16 allowable amount after the imposition of the property tax 17 extension limitation. Any road district may in all 18 circumstances retain its entitlement to a motor fuel tax 19 allotment if it levied a road and bridge tax in an amount 20 that will require the extension of the tax against the 21 taxable property in the road district at a rate of not less 22 than 0.08% of the assessed value of the property, based upon 23 the assessment for the year immediately preceding the year in 24 which the tax was levied and as equalized by the Department 25 of Revenue or, in DuPage County, an amount equal to or 26 greater than $12,000 per mile of road under the jurisdiction 27 of the road district, whichever is less. 28 As used in this Section the term "road district" means 29 any road district, including a county unit road district, 30 provided for by the Illinois Highway Code; and the term 31 "township or district road" means any road in the township 32 and district road system as defined in the Illinois Highway 33 Code. For the purposes of this Section, "road district" also 34 includes park districts, forest preserve districts and SB1591 Engrossed -359- LRB9111045EGfg 1 conservation districts organized under Illinois law and 2 "township or district road" also includes such roads as are 3 maintained by park districts, forest preserve districts and 4 conservation districts. The Department of Transportation 5 shall determine the mileage of all township and district 6 roads for the purposes of making allotments and allocations 7 of motor fuel tax funds for use in road districts. 8 Payment of motor fuel tax moneys to municipalities and 9 counties shall be made as soon as possible after the 10 allotment is made. The treasurer of the municipality or 11 county may invest these funds until their use is required and 12 the interest earned by these investments shall be limited to 13 the same uses as the principal funds. 14 (Source: P.A. 90-110, eff. 7-14-97; 90-655, eff. 7-30-98; 15 90-659, eff. 1-1-99; 90-691, eff. 1-1-99; 91-37, eff. 7-1-99; 16 91-59, eff. 6-30-99; 91-173, eff. 1-1-00; 91-357, eff. 17 7-29-99; revised 8-23-99.) 18 Section 40.

Allocation and Delegation of Fiduciary 22 Duties. 23 (1) Subject to the provisions of Section 22A-113 of this 24 Code and subsections (2) and (3) of this Section, the board 25 of trustees of a retirement system or pension fund 26 established under this Code may: 27 (a) Appoint one or more investment managers as 28 fiduciaries to manage (including the power to acquire and 29 dispose of) any assets of the retirement system or 30 pension fund; and 31 (b) Allocate duties among themselves and designate 32 others as fiduciaries to carry out specific fiduciary SB1591 Engrossed -360- LRB9111045EGfg 1 activities other than the management of the assets of the 2 retirement system or pension fund. 3 (2) The board of trustees of a pension fund established 4 under Article 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 or 17 of this Code may 5 not transfer its investment authority, nor transfer the 6 assets of the fund to any other person or entity for the 7 purpose of consolidating or merging its assets and management 8 with any other pension fund or public investment authority, 9 unless the board resolution authorizing such transfer is 10 submitted for approval to the contributors and pensioners of 11 the fund at elections held not less than 30 days after the 12 adoption of such resolution by the board, and such resolution 13 is approved by a majority of the votes cast on the question 14 in both the contributors election and the pensioners 15 election. The election procedures and qualifications 16 governing the election of trustees shall govern the 17 submission of resolutions for approval under this paragraph, 18 insofar as they may be made applicable. 19 (3) Pursuant to subsections (h) and (i) of Section 6 of 20 Article VII of the Illinois Constitution, the investment 21 authority of boards of trustees of retirement systems and 22 pension funds established under this Code is declared to be a 23 subject of exclusive State jurisdiction, and the concurrent 24 exercise by a home rule unit of any power affecting such 25 investment authority is hereby specifically denied and 26 preempted. 27 (4) For the purposes of this Code, "emerging investment 28 manager" means a qualified investment adviser that manages an 29 investment portfolio of at least $10,000,000 but less than 30 $400,000,000 on January 1, 1993 and is a "minority owned 31 business" or "female owned business" as those terms are 32 defined in theMinority and FemaleBusiness Enterprise for 33 Minorities, Females, and Persons with Disabilities Act. 34 It is hereby declared to be the public policy of the SB1591 Engrossed -361- LRB9111045EGfg 1 State of Illinois to encourage the trustees of public 2 employee retirement systems to use emerging investment 3 managers in managing their system's assets to the greatest 4 extent feasible within the bounds of financial and fiduciary 5 prudence, and to take affirmative steps to remove any 6 barriers to the full participation of emerging investment 7 managers in investment opportunities afforded by those 8 retirement systems. 9 Each retirement system subject to this Code shall prepare 10 a report to be submitted to the Governor and the General 11 Assembly by September 1 of each year. The report shall 12 identify the emerging investment managers used by the system, 13 the percentage of the system's assets under the investment 14 control of emerging investment managers, and the actions it 15 has undertaken to increase the use of emerging investment 16 managers, including encouraging other investment managers to 17 use emerging investment managers as subcontractors when the 18 opportunity arises. 19 The use of an emerging investment manager does not 20 constitute a transfer of investment authority for the 21 purposes of subsection (2) of this Section. 22 (Source: P.A. 86-1488; 87-1265; revised 8-23-99) 23 Section 41.

No taxes shall be extended for 11 any lease entered into after the effective date of this 12 amendatory Act of 1993, however, until after a public hearing 13 on the lease. The clerk or secretary of the governing body of 14 the municipal corporation shall cause notice of the time and 15 place of the hearing to be published at least once, at least 16 15 days before the hearing, in a newspaper published or 17 having general circulation within the municipal corporation. 18 If no such newspaper exists, the clerk or secretary shall 19 cause the notice to be posted, at least 15 days before the 20 hearing, in at least 10 conspicuous places within the 21 municipal corporation.

In any county having 9 adopted by referendum or otherwise a county health department 10 as provided by Division 5-25 of the Counties Code or its 11 predecessor, the county board of that county may exercise 12 those powers with regard to dangerous and unsafe buildings or 13 uncompleted and abandoned buildings within the territory of 14 any city, village, or incorporated town having less than 15 50,000 population. 16 The corporate authorities shall apply to the circuit 17 court of the county in which the building is located (i) for 18 an order authorizing action to be taken with respect to a 19 building if the owner or owners of the building, including 20 the lien holders of record, after at least 15 days' written 21 notice by mail so to do, have failed to put the building in a 22 safe condition or to demolish it or (ii) for an order 23 requiring the owner or owners of record to demolish, repair, 24 or enclose the building or to remove garbage, debris, and 25 other hazardous, noxious, or unhealthy substances or 26 materials from the building. It is not a defense to the 27 cause of action that the building is boarded up or otherwise 28 enclosed, although the court may order the defendant to have 29 the building boarded up or otherwise enclosed. Where, upon 30 diligent search, the identity or whereabouts of the owner or 31 owners of the building, including the lien holders of record, 32 is not ascertainable, notice mailed to the person or persons 33 in whose name the real estate was last assessed is sufficient 34 notice under this Section. SB1591 Engrossed -376- LRB9111045EGfg 1 The hearing upon the application to the circuit court 2 shall be expedited by the court and shall be given precedence 3 over all other suits. Any person entitled to bring an action 4 under subsection (b) shall have the right to intervene in an 5 action brought under this Section. 6 The cost of the demolition, repair, enclosure, or removal 7 incurred by the municipality, by an intervenor, or by a lien 8 holder of record, including court costs, attorney's fees, and 9 other costs related to the enforcement of this Section, is 10 recoverable from the owner or owners of the real estate or 11 the previous owner or both if the property was transferred 12 during the 15 day notice period and is a lien on the real 13 estate; the lien is superior to all prior existing liens and 14 encumbrances, except taxes, if, within 180 days after the 15 repair, demolition, enclosure, or removal, the municipality, 16 the lien holder of record, or the intervenor who incurred the 17 cost and expense shall file a notice of lien for the cost and 18 expense incurred in the office of the recorder in the county 19 in which the real estate is located or in the office of the 20 registrar of titles of the county if the real estate affected 21 is registered under the Registered Titles (Torrens) Act. 22 The notice must consist of a sworn statement setting out 23 (1) a description of the real estate sufficient for its 24 identification, (2) the amount of money representing the cost 25 and expense incurred, and (3) the date or dates when the cost 26 and expense was incurred by the municipality, the lien holder 27 of record, or the intervenor.

Unless the lien is enforced under subsection 34 (c), the lien may be enforced by foreclosure proceedings as SB1591 Engrossed -377- LRB9111045EGfg 1 in the case of mortgage foreclosures under Article XV of the 2 Code of Civil Procedure or mechanics' lien foreclosures. An 3 action to foreclose this lien may be commenced at any time 4 after the date of filing of the notice of lien. The costs of 5 foreclosure incurred by the municipality, including court 6 costs, reasonable attorney's fees, advances to preserve the 7 property, and other costs related to the enforcement of this 8 subsection, plus statutory interest, are a lien on the real 9 estate and are recoverable by the municipality from the owner 10 or owners of the real estate. 11 All liens arising under this subsection (a) shall be 12 assignable. The assignee of the lien shall have the same 13 power to enforce the lien as the assigning party, except that 14 the lien may not be enforced under subsection (c). 15 If the appropriate official of any municipality 16 determines that any dangerous and unsafe building or 17 uncompleted and abandoned building within its territory 18 fulfills the requirements for an action by the municipality 19 under the Abandoned Housing Rehabilitation Act, the 20 municipality may petition under that Act in a proceeding 21 brought under this subsection. 22 (b) Any owner or tenant of real property within 1200 23 feet in any direction of any dangerous or unsafe building 24 located within the territory of a municipality with a 25 population of 500,000 or more may file with the appropriate 26 municipal authority a request that the municipality apply to 27 the circuit court of the county in which the building is 28 located for an order permitting the demolition, removal of 29 garbage, debris, and other noxious or unhealthy substances 30 and materials from, or repair or enclosure of the building in 31 the manner prescribed in subsection (a) of this Section. If 32 the municipality fails to institute an action in circuit 33 court within 90 days after the filing of the request, the 34 owner or tenant of real property within 1200 feet in any SB1591 Engrossed -378- LRB9111045EGfg 1 direction of the building may institute an action in circuit 2 court seeking an order compelling the owner or owners of 3 record to demolish, remove garbage, debris, and other noxious 4 or unhealthy substances and materials from, repair or enclose 5 or to cause to be demolished, have garbage, debris, and other 6 noxious or unhealthy substances and materials removed from, 7 repaired, or enclosed the building in question. A private 8 owner or tenant who institutes an action under the preceding 9 sentence shall not be required to pay any fee to the clerk of 10 the circuit court. The cost of repair, removal, demolition, 11 or enclosure shall be borne by the owner or owners of record 12 of the building. In the event the owner or owners of record 13 fail to demolish, remove garbage, debris, and other noxious 14 or unhealthy substances and materials from, repair, or 15 enclose the building within 90 days of the date the court 16 entered its order, the owner or tenant who instituted the 17 action may request that the court join the municipality as a 18 party to the action. The court may order the municipality to 19 demolish, remove materials from, repair, or enclose the 20 building, or cause that action to be taken upon the request 21 of any owner or tenant who instituted the action or upon the 22 municipality's request. The municipality may file, and the 23 court may approve, a plan for rehabilitating the building in 24 question. A court order authorizing the municipality to 25 demolish, remove materials from, repair, or enclose a 26 building, or cause that action to be taken, shall not 27 preclude the court from adjudging the owner or owners of 28 record of the building in contempt of court due to the 29 failure to comply with the order to demolish, remove garbage, 30 debris, and other noxious or unhealthy substances and 31 materials from, repair, or enclose the building. 32 If a municipality or a person or persons other than the 33 owner or owners of record pay the cost of demolition, removal 34 of garbage, debris, and other noxious or unhealthy substances SB1591 Engrossed -379- LRB9111045EGfg 1 and materials, repair, or enclosure pursuant to a court 2 order, the cost, including court costs, attorney's fees, and 3 other costs related to the enforcement of this subsection, is 4 recoverable from the owner or owners of the real estate and 5 is a lien on the real estate; the lien is superior to all 6 prior existing liens and encumbrances, except taxes, if, 7 within 180 days after the repair, removal, demolition, or 8 enclosure, the municipality or the person or persons who paid 9 the costs of demolition, removal, repair, or enclosure shall 10 file a notice of lien of the cost and expense incurred in the 11 office of the recorder in the county in which the real estate 12 is located or in the office of the registrar of the county if 13 the real estate affected is registered under the Registered 14 Titles (Torrens) Act. The notice shall be in a form as is 15 provided in subsection (a). An owner or tenant who 16 institutes an action in circuit court seeking an order to 17 compel the owner or owners of record to demolish, remove 18 materials from, repair, or enclose any dangerous or unsafe 19 building, or to cause that action to be taken under this 20 subsection may recover court costs and reasonable attorney's 21 fees for instituting the action from the owner or owners of 22 record of the building. Upon payment of the costs and 23 expenses by the owner of or a person interested in the 24 property after the notice of lien has been filed, the lien 25 shall be released by the municipality or the person in whose 26 name the lien has been filed or his or her assignee, and the 27 release may be filed of record as in the case of filing a 28 notice of lien. Unless the lien is enforced under subsection 29 (c), the lien may be enforced by foreclosure proceedings as 30 in the case of mortgage foreclosures under Article XV of the 31 Code of Civil Procedure or mechanics' lien foreclosures. An 32 action to foreclose this lien may be commenced at any time 33 after the date of filing of the notice of lien. The costs of 34 foreclosure incurred by the municipality, including court SB1591 Engrossed -380- LRB9111045EGfg 1 costs, reasonable attorneys' fees, advances to preserve the 2 property, and other costs related to the enforcement of this 3 subsection, plus statutory interest, are a lien on the real 4 estate and are recoverable by the municipality from the owner 5 or owners of the real estate. 6 All liens arising under the terms of this subsection (b) 7 shall be assignable. The assignee of the lien shall have the 8 same power to enforce the lien as the assigning party, except 9 that the lien may not be enforced under subsection (c). 10 (c) In any case where a municipality has obtained a lien 11 under subsection (a), (b), or (f), the municipality may 12 enforce the lien under this subsection (c) in the same 13 proceeding in which the lien is authorized. 14 A municipality desiring to enforce a lien under this 15 subsection (c) shall petition the court to retain 16 jurisdiction for foreclosure proceedings under this 17 subsection. Notice of the petition shall be served, by 18 certified or registered mail, on all persons who were served 19 notice under subsection (a), (b), or (f). The court shall 20 conduct a hearing on the petition not less than 15 days after 21 the notice is served. If the court determines that the 22 requirements of this subsection (c) have been satisfied, it 23 shall grant the petition and retain jurisdiction over the 24 matter until the foreclosure proceeding is completed. The 25 costs of foreclosure incurred by the municipality, including 26 court costs, reasonable attorneys' fees, advances to preserve 27 the property, and other costs related to the enforcement of 28 this subsection, plus statutory interest, are a lien on the 29 real estate and are recoverable by the municipality from the 30 owner or owners of the real estate. If the court denies the 31 petition, the municipality may enforce the lien in a separate 32 action as provided in subsection (a), (b), or (f). 33 All persons designated in Section 15-1501 of the Code of 34 Civil Procedure as necessary parties in a mortgage SB1591 Engrossed -381- LRB9111045EGfg 1 foreclosure action shall be joined as parties before issuance 2 of an order of foreclosure. Persons designated in Section 3 15-1501 of the Code of Civil Procedure as permissible parties 4 may also be joined as parties in the action. 5 The provisions of Article XV of the Code of Civil 6 Procedure applicable to mortgage foreclosures shall apply to 7 the foreclosure of a lien under this subsection (c), except 8 to the extent that those provisions are inconsistent with 9 this subsection. For purposes of foreclosures of liens 10 under this subsection, however, the redemption period 11 described in subsection (b) of Section 15-1603 of the Code of 12 Civil Procedure shall end 60 days after the date of entry of 13 the order of foreclosure. 14 (d) In addition to any other remedy provided by law, the 15 corporate authorities of any municipality may petition the 16 circuit court to have property declared abandoned under this 17 subsection (d) if: 18 (1) the property has been tax delinquent for 2 or 19 more years or bills for water service for the property 20 have been outstanding for 2 or more years; 21 (2) the property is unoccupied by persons legally 22 in possession; and 23 (3) the property contains a dangerous or unsafe 24 building. 25 All persons having an interest of record in the property, 26 including tax purchasers and beneficial owners of any 27 Illinois land trust having title to the property, shall be 28 named as defendants in the petition and shall be served with 29 process. In addition, service shall be had under Section 30 2-206 of the Code of Civil Procedure as in other cases 31 affecting property. 32 The municipality, however, may proceed under this 33 subsection in a proceeding brought under subsection (a) or 34 (b). Notice of the petition shall be served by certified or SB1591 Engrossed -382- LRB9111045EGfg 1 registered mail on all persons who were served notice under 2 subsection (a) or (b). 3 If the municipality proves that the conditions described 4 in this subsection exist and the owner of record of the 5 property does not enter an appearance in the action, or, if 6 title to the property is held by an Illinois land trust, if 7 neither the owner of record nor the owner of the beneficial 8 interest of the trust enters an appearance, the court shall 9 declare the property abandoned. 10 If that determination is made, notice shall be sent by 11 certified or registered mail to all persons having an 12 interest of record in the property, including tax purchasers 13 and beneficial owners of any Illinois land trust having title 14 to the property, stating that title to the property will be 15 transferred to the municipality unless, within 30 days of the 16 notice, the owner of record enters an appearance in the 17 action, or unless any other person having an interest in the 18 property files with the court a request to demolish the 19 dangerous or unsafe building or to put the building in safe 20 condition. 21 If the owner of record enters an appearance in the action 22 within the 30 day period, the court shall vacate its order 23 declaring the property abandoned. In that case, the 24 municipality may amend its complaint in order to initiate 25 proceedings under subsection (a). 26 If a request to demolish or repair the building is filed 27 within the 30 day period, the court shall grant permission to 28 the requesting party to demolish the building within 30 days 29 or to restore the building to safe condition within 60 days 30 after the request is granted. An extension of that period 31 for up to 60 additional days may be given for good cause. If 32 more than one person with an interest in the property files a 33 timely request, preference shall be given to the person with 34 the lien or other interest of the highest priority. SB1591 Engrossed -383- LRB9111045EGfg 1 If the requesting party proves to the court that the 2 building has been demolished or put in a safe condition 3 within the period of time granted by the court, the court 4 shall issue a quitclaim judicial deed for the property to the 5 requesting party, conveying only the interest of the owner of 6 record, upon proof of payment to the municipality of all 7 costs incurred by the municipality in connection with the 8 action, including but not limited to court costs, attorney's 9 fees, administrative costs, the costs, if any, associated 10 with building enclosure or removal, and receiver's 11 certificates. The interest in the property so conveyed shall 12 be subject to all liens and encumbrances on the property. In 13 addition, if the interest is conveyed to a person holding a 14 certificate of purchase for the property under the Property 15 Tax Code, the conveyance shall be subject to the rights of 16 redemption of all persons entitled to redeem under that Act, 17 including the original owner of record. 18 If no person with an interest in the property files a 19 timely request or if the requesting party fails to demolish 20 the building or put the building in safe condition within the 21 time specified by the court, the municipality may petition 22 the court to issue a judicial deed for the property to the 23 municipality. A conveyance by judicial deed shall operate to 24 extinguish all existing ownership interests in, liens on, and 25 other interest in the property, including tax liens, and 26 shall extinguish the rights and interests of any and all 27 holders of a bona fide certificate of purchase of the 28 property for delinquent taxes. Any such bona fide 29 certificate of purchase holder shall be entitled to a sale in 30 error as prescribed under Section 21-310 of the Property Tax 31 Code. 32 (e) Each municipality may use the provisions of this 33 subsection to expedite the removal of certain buildings that 34 are a continuing hazard to the community in which they are SB1591 Engrossed -384- LRB9111045EGfg 1 located. 2 If a residential or commercial building is 3 stories or 3 less in height as defined by the municipality's building 4 code, and the corporate official designated to be in charge 5 of enforcing the municipality's building code determines that 6 the building is open and vacant and an immediate and 7 continuing hazard to the community in which the building is 8 located, then the official shall be authorized to post a 9 notice not less than 2 feet by 2 feet in size on the front of 10 the building. The notice shall be dated as of the date of 11 the posting and shall state that unless the building is 12 demolished, repaired, or enclosed, and unless any garbage, 13 debris, and other hazardous, noxious, or unhealthy substances 14 or materials are removed so that an immediate and continuing 15 hazard to the community no longer exists, then the building 16 may be demolished, repaired, or enclosed, or any garbage, 17 debris, and other hazardous, noxious, or unhealthy substances 18 or materials may be removed, by the municipality. 19 Not later than 30 days following the posting of the 20 notice, the municipality shall do all of the following: 21 (1) Cause to be sent, by certified mail, return 22 receipt requested, a Notice to Remediate to all owners 23 of record of the property, the beneficial owners of any 24 Illinois land trust having title to the property, and all 25 lienholders of record in the property, stating the intent 26 of the municipality to demolish, repair, or enclose the 27 building or remove any garbage, debris, or other 28 hazardous, noxious, or unhealthy substances or materials 29 if that action is not taken by the owner or owners. 30 (2) Cause to be published, in a newspaper published 31 or circulated in the municipality where the building is 32 located, a notice setting forth (i) the permanent tax 33 index number and the address of the building, (ii) a 34 statement that the property is open and vacant and SB1591 Engrossed -385- LRB9111045EGfg 1 constitutes an immediate and continuing hazard to the 2 community, and (iii) a statement that the municipality 3 intends to demolish, repair, or enclose the building or 4 remove any garbage, debris, or other hazardous, noxious, 5 or unhealthy substances or materials if the owner or 6 owners or lienholders of record fail to do so. This 7 notice shall be published for 3 consecutive days. 8 (3) Cause to be recorded the Notice to Remediate 9 mailed under paragraph (1) in the office of the recorder 10 in the county in which the real estate is located or in 11 the office of the registrar of titles of the county if 12 the real estate is registered under the Registered Title 13 (Torrens) Act. 14 Any person or persons with a current legal or equitable 15 interest in the property objecting to the proposed actions of 16 the corporate authorities may file his or her objection in an 17 appropriate form in a court of competent jurisdiction. 18 If the building is not demolished, repaired, or enclosed, 19 or the garbage, debris, or other hazardous, noxious, or 20 unhealthy substances or materials are not removed, within 30 21 days of mailing the notice to the owners of record, the 22 beneficial owners of any Illinois land trust having title to 23 the property, and all lienholders of record in the property, 24 or within 30 days of the last day of publication of the 25 notice, whichever is later, the corporate authorities shall 26 have the power to demolish, repair, or enclose the building 27 or to remove any garbage, debris, or other hazardous, 28 noxious, or unhealthy substances or materials. 29 The municipality may proceed to demolish, repair, or 30 enclose a building or remove any garbage, debris, or other 31 hazardous, noxious, or unhealthy substances or materials 32 under this subsection within a 120-day period following the 33 date of the mailing of the notice if the appropriate official 34 determines that the demolition, repair, enclosure, or removal SB1591 Engrossed -386- LRB9111045EGfg 1 of any garbage, debris, or other hazardous, noxious, or 2 unhealthy substances or materials is necessary to remedy the 3 immediate and continuing hazard. If, however, before the 4 municipality proceeds with any of the actions authorized by 5 this subsection, any person with a legal or equitable 6 interest in the property has sought a hearing under this 7 subsection before a court and has served a copy of the 8 complaint on the chief executive officer of the municipality, 9 then the municipality shall not proceed with the demolition, 10 repair, enclosure, or removal of garbage, debris, or other 11 substances until the court determines that that action is 12 necessary to remedy the hazard and issues an order 13 authorizing the municipality to do so. 14 Following the demolition, repair, or enclosure of a 15 building, or the removal of garbage, debris, or other 16 hazardous, noxious, or unhealthy substances or materials 17 under this subsection, the municipality may file a notice of 18 lien against the real estate for the cost of the demolition, 19 repair, enclosure, or removal within 180 days after the 20 repair, demolition, enclosure, or removal occurred, for the 21 cost and expense incurred, in the office of the recorder in 22 the county in which the real estate is located or in the 23 office of the registrar of titles of the county if the real 24 estate affected is registered under the Registered Titles 25 (Torrens) Act; this lien has priority over the interests of 26 those parties named in the Notice to Remediate mailed under 27 paragraph (1), but not over the interests of third party 28 purchasers or encumbrancers for value who obtained their 29 interests in the property before obtaining actual or 30 constructive notice of the lien. The notice of lien shall 31 consist of a sworn statement setting forth (i) a description 32 of the real estate, such as the address or other description 33 of the property, sufficient for its identification; (ii) the 34 expenses incurred by the municipality in undertaking the SB1591 Engrossed -387- LRB9111045EGfg 1 remedial actions authorized under this subsection; (iii) the 2 date or dates the expenses were incurred by the municipality; 3 (iv) a statement by the corporate official responsible for 4 enforcing the building code that the building was open and 5 vacant and constituted an immediate and continuing hazard to 6 the community; (v) a statement by the corporate official that 7 the required sign was posted on the building, that notice was 8 sent by certified mail to the owners of record, and that 9 notice was published in accordance with this subsection; and 10 (vi) a statement as to when and where the notice was 11 published. The lien authorized by this subsection may 12 thereafter be released or enforced by the municipality as 13 provided in subsection (a). 14 (f) The corporate authorities of each municipality may 15 remove or cause the removal of, or otherwise environmentally 16 remediate hazardous substances and petroleum products on, in, 17 or under any abandoned and unsafe property within the 18 territory of a municipality. In addition, where preliminary 19 evidence indicates the presence or likely presence of a 20 hazardous substance or a petroleum product or a release or a 21 substantial threat of a release of a hazardous substance or a 22 petroleum product on, in, or under the property, the 23 corporate authorities of the municipality may inspect the 24 property and test for the presence or release of hazardous 25 substances and petroleum products. In any county having 26 adopted by referendum or otherwise a county health department 27 as provided by Division 5-25 of the Counties Code or its 28 predecessor, the county board of that county may exercise the 29 above-described powers with regard to property within the 30 territory of any city, village, or incorporated town having 31 less than 50,000 population. 32 For purposes of this subsection (f): 33 (1) "property" or "real estate" means all real 34 property, whether or not improved by a structure; SB1591 Engrossed -388- LRB9111045EGfg 1 (2) "abandoned" means; 2 (A) the property has been tax delinquent for 2 3 or more years; 4 (B) the property is unoccupied by persons 5 legally in possession; and 6 (3) "unsafe" means property that presents an actual 7 or imminent threat to public health and safety caused by 8 the release of hazardous substances; and 9 (4) "hazardous substances" means the same as in 10 Section 3.14 of the Environmental Protection Act. 11 The corporate authorities shall apply to the circuit 12 court of the county in which the property is located (i) for 13 an order allowing the municipality to enter the property and 14 inspect and test substances on, in, or under the property; or 15 (ii) for an order authorizing the corporate authorities to 16 take action with respect to remediation of the property if 17 conditions on the property, based on the inspection and 18 testing authorized in paragraph (i), indicate the presence of 19 hazardous substances or petroleum products. Remediation 20 shall be deemed complete for purposes of paragraph (ii) above 21 when the property satisfies Tier I, II, or III remediation 22 objectives for the property's most recent usage, as 23 established by the Environmental Protection Act, and the 24 rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Where, upon 25 diligent search, the identity or whereabouts of the owner or 26 owners of the property, including the lien holders of record, 27 is not ascertainable, notice mailed to the person or persons 28 in whose name the real estate was last assessed is sufficient 29 notice under this Section. 30 The court shall grant an order authorizing testing under 31 paragraph (i) above upon a showing of preliminary evidence 32 indicating the presence or likely presence of a hazardous 33 substance or a petroleum product or a release of or a 34 substantial threat of a release of a hazardous substance or a SB1591 Engrossed -389- LRB9111045EGfg 1 petroleum product on, in, or under abandoned property. The 2 preliminary evidence may include, but is not limited to, 3 evidence of prior use, visual site inspection, or records of 4 prior environmental investigations. The testing authorized 5 by paragraph (i) above shall include any type of 6 investigation which is necessary for an environmental 7 professional to determine the environmental condition of the 8 property, including but not limited to performance of soil 9 borings and groundwater monitoring. The court shall grant a 10 remediation order under paragraph (ii) above where testing of 11 the property indicates that it fails to meet the applicable 12 remediation objectives. The hearing upon the application to 13 the circuit court shall be expedited by the court and shall 14 be given precedence over all other suits. 15 The cost of the inspection, testing, or remediation 16 incurred by the municipality or by a lien holder of record, 17 including court costs, attorney's fees, and other costs 18 related to the enforcement of this Section, is a lien on the 19 real estate; except that in any instances where a 20 municipality incurs costs of inspection and testing but finds 21 no hazardous substances or petroleum products on the property 22 that present an actual or imminent threat to public health 23 and safety, such costs are not recoverable from the owners 24 nor are such costs a lien on the real estate. The lien is 25 superior to all prior existing liens and encumbrances, except 26 taxes and any lien obtained under subsection (a) or (e), if, 27 within 180 days after the completion of the inspection, 28 testing, or remediation, the municipality or the lien holder 29 of record who incurred the cost and expense shall file a 30 notice of lien for the cost and expense incurred in the 31 office of the recorder in the county in which the real estate 32 is located or in the office of the registrar of titles of the 33 county if the real estate affected is registered under the 34 Registered Titles (Torrens) Act. SB1591 Engrossed -390- LRB9111045EGfg 1 The notice must consist of a sworn statement setting out 2 (i) a description of the real estate sufficient for its 3 identification, (ii) the amount of money representing the 4 cost and expense incurred, and (iii) the date or dates when 5 the cost and expense was incurred by the municipality or the 6 lien holder of record. Upon payment of the lien amount by 7 the owner of or persons interested in the property after the 8 notice of lien has been filed, a release of lien shall be 9 issued by the municipality, the person in whose name the lien 10 has been filed, or the assignee of the lien, and the release 11 may be filed of record as in the case of filing notice of 12 lien. 13 The lien may be enforced under subsection (c) or by 14 foreclosure proceedings as in the case of mortgage 15 foreclosures under Article XV of the Code of Civil Procedure 16 or mechanics' lien foreclosures; provided that where the lien 17 is enforced by foreclosure under subsection (c) or under 18 either statute, the municipality may not proceed against the 19 other assets of the owner or owners of the real estate for 20 any costs that otherwise would be recoverable under this 21 Section but that remain unsatisfied after foreclosure except 22 where such additional recovery is authorized by separate 23 environmental laws. An action to foreclose this lien may be 24 commenced at any time after the date of filing of the notice 25 of lien. The costs of foreclosure incurred by the 26 municipality, including court costs, reasonable attorney's 27 fees, advances to preserve the property, and other costs 28 related to the enforcement of this subsection, plus statutory 29 interest, are a lien on the real estate. 30 All liens arising under this subsection (f) shall be 31 assignable. The assignee of the lien shall have the same 32 power to enforce the lien as the assigning party, except that 33 the lien may not be enforced under subsection (c). 34 (g) In any case where a municipality has obtained a lien SB1591 Engrossed -391- LRB9111045EGfg 1 under subsection (a), the municipality may also bring an 2 action for a money judgment against the owner or owners of 3 the real estate in the amount of the lien in the same manner 4 as provided for bringing causes of action in Article II of 5 the Code of Civil Procedure and, upon obtaining a judgment, 6 file a judgment lien against all of the real estate of the 7 owner or owners and enforce that lien as provided for in 8 Article XII of the Code of Civil Procedure. 9 (Source: P.A. 90-393, eff. 1-1-98; 90-597, eff. 6-25-98; 10 91-162, eff. 7-16-99; 91-177, eff. 1-1-00; 91-357, eff. 11 7-29-99; 91-542, eff. 1-1-00; 91-561, eff. 1-1-00; revised 12 8-27-99.) 13 (65 ILCS 5/11-74.4-3) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-74.4-3) 14 Sec. 11-74.4-3.

The responsibility for annually 12 documenting the initial occupancy of the units by 13 low-income households and very low-income 14 households, as defined in Section 3 of the Illinois 15 Affordable Housing Act, shall be that of the then 16 current owner of the property. For ownership units, 17 the guidelines will provide, at a minimum, for a 18 reasonable recapture of funds, or other appropriate 19 methods designed to preserve the original 20 affordability of the ownership units. For rental 21 units, the guidelines will provide, at a minimum, 22 for the affordability of rent to low and very 23 low-income households. As units become available, 24 they shall be rented to income-eligible tenants. 25 The municipality may modify these guidelines from 26 time to time; the guidelines, however, shall be in 27 effect for as long as tax increment revenue is being 28 used to pay for costs associated with the units or 29 for the retirement of bonds issued to finance the 30 units or for the life of the redevelopment project 31 area, whichever is later. 32 (11.5) If the redevelopment project area is located 33 within a municipality with a population of more than 34 100,000, the cost of day care services for children of SB1591 Engrossed -428- LRB9111045EGfg 1 employees from low-income families working for businesses 2 located within the redevelopment project area and all or 3 a portion of the cost of operation of day care centers 4 established by redevelopment project area businesses to 5 serve employees from low-income families working in 6 businesses located in the redevelopment project area. 7 For the purposes of this paragraph, "low-income families" 8 means families whose annual income does not exceed 80% of 9 the municipal, county, or regional median income, 10 adjusted for family size, as the annual income and 11 municipal, county, or regional median income are 12 determined from time to time by the United States 13 Department of Housing and Urban Development. 14 (12) Unless explicitly stated herein the cost of 15 construction of new privately-owned buildings shall not 16 be an eligible redevelopment project cost. 17 (13) After November 1, 1999 (the effective date of 18 Public Act 91-478)this amendatory Act of the 91st19General Assembly, none of the redevelopment project costs 20 enumerated in this subsection shall be eligible 21 redevelopment project costs if those costs would provide 22 direct financial support to a retail entity initiating 23 operations in the redevelopment project area while 24 terminating operations at another Illinois location 25 within 10 miles of the redevelopment project area but 26 outside the boundaries of the redevelopment project area 27 municipality. For purposes of this paragraph, 28 termination means a closing of a retail operation that is 29 directly related to the opening of the same operation or 30 like retail entity owned or operated by more than 50% of 31 the original ownership in a redevelopment project area, 32 but it does not mean closing an operation for reasons 33 beyond the control of the retail entity, as documented by 34 the retail entity, subject to a reasonable finding by the SB1591 Engrossed -429- LRB9111045EGfg 1 municipality that the current location contained 2 inadequate space, had become economically obsolete, or 3 was no longer a viable location for the retailer or 4 serviceman. 5 If a special service area has been established pursuant 6 to the Special Service Area Tax Act or Special Service Area 7 Tax Law, then any tax increment revenues derived from the tax 8 imposed pursuant to the Special Service Area Tax Act or 9 Special Service Area Tax Law may be used within the 10 redevelopment project area for the purposes permitted by that 11 Act or Law as well as the purposes permitted by this Act. 12 (r) "State Sales Tax Boundary" means the redevelopment 13 project area or the amended redevelopment project area 14 boundaries which are determined pursuant to subsection (9) of 15 Section 11-74.4-8a of this Act.

For purposes of computing the aggregate amount 10 of such taxes for base years occurring prior to 1985, the 11 Department of Revenue shall compute the Initial Sales Tax 12 Amount for such taxes and deduct therefrom an amount equal to 13 4% of the aggregate amount of taxes per year for each year 14 the base year is prior to 1985, but not to exceed a total 15 deduction of 12%. The amount so determined shall be known as 16 the "Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amount". For purposes of 17 determining the State Sales Tax Increment the Department of 18 Revenue shall for each period subtract from the tax amounts 19 received from retailers and servicemen on transactions 20 located in the State Sales Tax Boundary, the certified 21 Initial Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts 22 or Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts for the Retailers' 23 Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax Act 24 and the Service Occupation Tax Act.

For the State Fiscal Year 34 1991, this calculation shall be made by utilizing the period SB1591 Engrossed -431- LRB9111045EGfg 1 from October 1, 1988, until June 30, 1989, to determine the 2 tax amounts received from retailers and servicemen, which 3 shall have deducted therefrom nine-twelfths of the certified 4 Initial State Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax 5 Amounts or the Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts as 6 appropriate. For every State Fiscal Year thereafter, the 7 applicable period shall be the 12 months beginning July 1 and 8 ending on June 30, to determine the tax amounts received 9 which shall have deducted therefrom the certified Initial 10 Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts or the 11 Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts.

For purposes of this Section and only for land 8 subject to the subdivision requirements of the Plat Act, land 9 is subdivided when the original plat of the proposed 10 Redevelopment Project Area or relevant portion thereof has 11 been properly certified, acknowledged, approved, and recorded 12 or filed in accordance with the Plat Act and a preliminary 13 plat, if any, for any subsequent phases of the proposed 14 Redevelopment Project Area or relevant portion thereof has 15 been properly approved and filed in accordance with the 16 applicable ordinance of the municipality. 17 (w) "Annual Total Increment" means the sum of each 18 municipality's annual Net Sales Tax Increment and each 19 municipality's annual Net Utility Tax Increment.

If it appears upon the 12 canvass of the election by the corporate authorities that a 13 majority of electors voting upon the question voted in favor 14 thereof, the ordinance shall be in effect, but if a majority 15 of the electors voting upon the question are not in favor 16 thereof, the ordinance shall not take effect. 17 The ordinance authorizing the obligations may provide 18 that the obligations shall contain a recital that they are 19 issued pursuant to this Division, which recital shall be 20 conclusive evidence of their validity and of the regularity 21 of their issuance. 22 In the event the municipality authorizes issuance of 23 obligations pursuant to this Section secured by the full 24 faith and credit of the municipality, the ordinance 25 authorizing the obligations may provide for the levy and 26 collection of a direct annual tax upon all taxable property 27 within the municipality sufficient to pay the principal 28 thereof and interest thereon as it matures, which levy may be 29 in addition to and exclusive of the maximum of all other 30 taxes authorized to be levied by the municipality, which 31 levy, however, shall be abated to the extent that monies from 32 other sources are available for payment of the obligations 33 and the municipality certifies the amount of said monies 34 available to the county clerk.

A municipality may not adopt tax 3 increment financing in a redevelopment project area after the 4 effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997 that will 5 encompass an area that is currently included in an enterprise 6 zone created under the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act unless 7 that municipality, pursuant to Section 5.4 of the Illinois 8 Enterprise Zone Act, amends the enterprise zone designating 9 ordinance to limit the eligibility for tax abatements as 10 provided in Section 5.4.1 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone 11 Act. A municipality, at the time a redevelopment project 12 area is designated, may adopt tax increment allocation 13 financing by passing an ordinance providing that the ad 14 valorem taxes, if any, arising from the levies upon taxable 15 real property in such redevelopment project area by taxing 16 districts and tax rates determined in the manner provided in 17 paragraph (c) of Section 11-74.4-9 each year after the 18 effective date of the ordinance until redevelopment project 19 costs and all municipal obligations financing redevelopment 20 project costs incurred under this Division have been paid 21 shall be divided as follows: 22 (a) That portion of taxes levied upon each taxable lot, 23 block, tract or parcel of real property which is attributable 24 to the lower of the current equalized assessed value or the 25 initial equalized assessed value of each such taxable lot, 26 block, tract or parcel of real property in the redevelopment 27 project area shall be allocated to and when collected shall 28 be paid by the county collector to the respective affected 29 taxing districts in the manner required by law in the absence 30 of the adoption of tax increment allocation financing. 31 (b) Except from a tax levied by a township to retire 32 bonds issued to satisfy court-ordered damages, that portion, 33 if any, of such taxes which is attributable to the increase 34 in the current equalized assessed valuation of each taxable SB1591 Engrossed -447- LRB9111045EGfg 1 lot, block, tract or parcel of real property in the 2 redevelopment project area over and above the initial 3 equalized assessed value of each property in the project area 4 shall be allocated to and when collected shall be paid to the 5 municipal treasurer who shall deposit said taxes into a 6 special fund called the special tax allocation fund of the 7 municipality for the purpose of paying redevelopment project 8 costs and obligations incurred in the payment thereof. In any 9 county with a population of 3,000,000 or more that has 10 adopted a procedure for collecting taxes that provides for 11 one or more of the installments of the taxes to be billed and 12 collected on an estimated basis, the municipal treasurer 13 shall be paid for deposit in the special tax allocation fund 14 of the municipality, from the taxes collected from estimated 15 bills issued for property in the redevelopment project area, 16 the difference between the amount actually collected from 17 each taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property 18 within the redevelopment project area and an amount 19 determined by multiplying the rate at which taxes were last 20 extended against the taxable lot, block, track, or parcel of 21 real property in the manner provided in subsection (c) of 22 Section 11-74.4-9 by the initial equalized assessed value of 23 the property divided by the number of installments in which 24 real estate taxes are billed and collected within the county; 25 provided that the payments on or before December 31, 1999 to 26 a municipal treasurer shall be made only if each of the 27 following conditions are met: 28 (1) The total equalized assessed value of the 29 redevelopment project area as last determined was not 30 less than 175% of the total initial equalized assessed 31 value. 32 (2) Not more than 50% of the total equalized 33 assessed value of the redevelopment project area as last 34 determined is attributable to a piece of property SB1591 Engrossed -448- LRB9111045EGfg 1 assigned a single real estate index number. 2 (3) The municipal clerk has certified to the county 3 clerk that the municipality has issued its obligations to 4 which there has been pledged the incremental property 5 taxes of the redevelopment project area or taxes levied 6 and collected on any or all property in the municipality 7 or the full faith and credit of the municipality to pay 8 or secure payment for all or a portion of the 9 redevelopment project costs. The certification shall be 10 filed annually no later than September 1 for the 11 estimated taxes to be distributed in the following year; 12 however, for the year 1992 the certification shall be 13 made at any time on or before March 31, 1992. 14 (4) The municipality has not requested that the 15 total initial equalized assessed value of real property 16 be adjusted as provided in subsection (b) of Section 17 11-74.4-9. 18 The conditions of paragraphs (1) through (4) do not apply 19 after December 31, 1999 to payments to a municipal treasurer 20 made by a county with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants that has 21 adopted an estimated billing procedure for collecting taxes. 22 If a county that has adopted the estimated billing procedure 23 makes an erroneous overpayment of tax revenue to the 24 municipal treasurer, then the county may seek a refund of 25 that overpayment. The county shall send the municipal 26 treasurer a notice of liability for the overpayment on or 27 before the mailing date of the next real estate tax bill 28 within the county. The refund shall be limited to the amount 29 of the overpayment. 30 It is the intent of this Division that after the 31 effective date of this amendatory Act of 1988 a 32 municipality's own ad valorem tax arising from levies on 33 taxable real property be included in the determination of 34 incremental revenue in the manner provided in paragraph (c) SB1591 Engrossed -449- LRB9111045EGfg 1 of Section 11-74.4-9. If the municipality does not extend 2 such a tax, it shall annually deposit in the municipality's 3 Special Tax Increment Fund an amount equal to 10% of the 4 total contributions to the fund from all other taxing 5 districts in that year. The annual 10% deposit required by 6 this paragraph shall be limited to the actual amount of 7 municipally produced incremental tax revenues available to 8 the municipality from taxpayers located in the redevelopment 9 project area in that year if: (a) the plan for the area 10 restricts the use of the property primarily to industrial 11 purposes, (b) the municipality establishing the redevelopment 12 project area is a home-rule community with a 1990 population 13 of between 25,000 and 50,000, (c) the municipality is wholly 14 located within a county with a 1990 population of over 15 750,000 and (d) the redevelopment project area was 16 established by the municipality prior to June 1, 1990. This 17 payment shall be in lieu of a contribution of ad valorem 18 taxes on real property. If no such payment is made, any 19 redevelopment project area of the municipality shall be 20 dissolved. 21 If a municipality has adopted tax increment allocation 22 financing by ordinance and the County Clerk thereafter 23 certifies the "total initial equalized assessed value as 24 adjusted" of the taxable real property within such 25 redevelopment project area in the manner provided in 26 paragraph (b) of Section 11-74.4-9, each year after the date 27 of the certification of the total initial equalized assessed 28 value as adjusted until redevelopment project costs and all 29 municipal obligations financing redevelopment project costs 30 have been paid the ad valorem taxes, if any, arising from the 31 levies upon the taxable real property in such redevelopment 32 project area by taxing districts and tax rates determined in 33 the manner provided in paragraph (c) of Section 11-74.4-9 34 shall be divided as follows: SB1591 Engrossed -450- LRB9111045EGfg 1 (1) That portion of the taxes levied upon each 2 taxable lot, block, tract or parcel of real property 3 which is attributable to the lower of the current 4 equalized assessed value or "current equalized assessed 5 value as adjusted" or the initial equalized assessed 6 value of each such taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel 7 of real property existing at the time tax increment 8 financing was adopted, minus the total current homestead 9 exemptions provided by Sections 15-170 and 15-175 of the 10 Property Tax Code in the redevelopment project area shall 11 be allocated to and when collected shall be paid by the 12 county collector to the respective affected taxing 13 districts in the manner required by law in the absence of 14 the adoption of tax increment allocation financing. 15 (2) That portion, if any, of such taxes which is 16 attributable to the increase in the current equalized 17 assessed valuation of each taxable lot, block, tract, or 18 parcel of real property in the redevelopment project 19 area, over and above the initial equalized assessed value 20 of each property existing at the time tax increment 21 financing was adopted, minus the total current homestead 22 exemptions pertaining to each piece of property provided 23 by Sections 15-170 and 15-175 of the Property Tax Code in 24 the redevelopment project area, shall be allocated to and 25 when collected shall be paid to the municipal Treasurer, 26 who shall deposit said taxes into a special fund called 27 the special tax allocation fund of the municipality for 28 the purpose of paying redevelopment project costs and 29 obligations incurred in the payment thereof. 30 The municipality may pledge in the ordinance the funds in 31 and to be deposited in the special tax allocation fund for 32 the payment of such costs and obligations. No part of the 33 current equalized assessed valuation of each property in the 34 redevelopment project area attributable to any increase above SB1591 Engrossed -451- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the total initial equalized assessed value, or the total 2 initial equalized assessed value as adjusted, of such 3 properties shall be used in calculating the general State 4 school aid formula, provided for in Section 18-8 of the 5 School Code, until such time as all redevelopment project 6 costs have been paid as provided for in this Section. 7 Whenever a municipality issues bonds for the purpose of 8 financing redevelopment project costs, such municipality may 9 provide by ordinance for the appointment of a trustee, which 10 may be any trust company within the State, and for the 11 establishment of such funds or accounts to be maintained by 12 such trustee as the municipality shall deem necessary to 13 provide for the security and payment of the bonds. If such 14 municipality provides for the appointment of a trustee, such 15 trustee shall be considered the assignee of any payments 16 assigned by the municipality pursuant to such ordinance and 17 this Section. Any amounts paid to such trustee as assignee 18 shall be deposited in the funds or accounts established 19 pursuant to such trust agreement, and shall be held by such 20 trustee in trust for the benefit of the holders of the bonds, 21 and such holders shall have a lien on and a security interest 22 in such funds or accounts so long as the bonds remain 23 outstanding and unpaid. Upon retirement of the bonds, the 24 trustee shall pay over any excess amounts held to the 25 municipality for deposit in the special tax allocation fund. 26 When such redevelopment projects costs, including without 27 limitation all municipal obligations financing redevelopment 28 project costs incurred under this Division, have been paid, 29 all surplus funds then remaining in the special tax 30 allocation fund shall be distributed by being paid by the 31 municipal treasurer to the Department of Revenue, the 32 municipality and the county collector; first to the 33 Department of Revenue and the municipality in direct 34 proportion to the tax incremental revenue received from the SB1591 Engrossed -452- LRB9111045EGfg 1 State and the municipality, but not to exceed the total 2 incremental revenue received from the State or the 3 municipality less any annual surplus distribution of 4 incremental revenue previously made; with any remaining funds 5 to be paid to the County Collector who shall immediately 6 thereafter pay said funds to the taxing districts in the 7 redevelopment project area in the same manner and proportion 8 as the most recent distribution by the county collector to 9 the affected districts of real property taxes from real 10 property in the redevelopment project area. 11 Upon the payment of all redevelopment project costs, 12 retirement of obligations and the distribution of any excess 13 monies pursuant to this Section, the municipality shall adopt 14 an ordinance dissolving the special tax allocation fund for 15 the redevelopment project area and terminating the 16 designation of the redevelopment project area as a 17 redevelopment project area. Municipalities shall notify 18 affected taxing districts prior to November 1 if the 19 redevelopment project area is to be terminated by December 31 20 of that same year. If a municipality extends estimated dates 21 of completion of a redevelopment project and retirement of 22 obligations to finance a redevelopment project, as allowed by 23 this amendatory Act of 1993, that extension shall not extend 24 the property tax increment allocation financing authorized by 25 this Section. Thereafter the rates of the taxing districts 26 shall be extended and taxes levied, collected and distributed 27 in the manner applicable in the absence of the adoption of 28 tax increment allocation financing. 29 Nothing in this Section shall be construed as relieving 30 property in such redevelopment project areas from being 31 assessed as provided in the Property Tax Code or as relieving 32 owners of such property from paying a uniform rate of taxes, 33 as required by Section 4 of Article 9 of the Illinois 34 Constitution.

The Metropolitan Pier and Exposition 4 Authority Act is amended by changing Section 23.1 as follows: 5 (70 ILCS 210/23.1) (from Ch. 85, par. 1243.1) 6 Sec. 23.1. (a) The Authority shall, within 90 days 7 after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1984, 8 establish and maintain an affirmative action program designed 9 to promote equal employment opportunity and eliminate the 10 effects of past discrimination. Such program shall include a 11 plan, including timetables where appropriate, which shall 12 specify goals and methods for increasing participation by 13 women and minorities in employment by the Authority and by 14 parties which contract with the Authority. The Authority 15 shall submit a detailed plan with the General Assembly prior 16 to September 1 of each year. Such program shall also 17 establish procedures and sanctions (including debarment), 18 which the Authority shall enforce to ensure compliance with 19 the plan established pursuant to this Section and with State 20 and federal laws and regulations relating to the employment 21 of women and minorities. A determination by the Authority as 22 to whether a party to a contract with the Authority has 23 achieved the goals or employed the methods for increasing 24 participation by women and minorities shall be determined in 25 accordance with the terms of such contracts or the applicable 26 provisions of rules and regulations of the Authority existing 27 at the time such contract was executed, including any 28 provisions for consideration of good faith efforts at 29 compliance which the Authority may reasonably adopt. 30 (b) The Authority shall adopt and maintain minority and 31 female owned business enterprise procurement programs under 32 the affirmative action program described in subsection (a) SB1591 Engrossed -454- LRB9111045EGfg 1 for any and all work undertaken by the Authority. That work 2 shall include, but is not limited to, the purchase of 3 professional services, construction services, supplies, 4 materials, and equipment. The programs shall establish goals 5 of awarding not less than 25% of the annual dollar value of 6 all contracts, purchase orders, or other agreements 7 (collectively referred to as "contracts") to minority owned 8 businesses and 5% of the annual dollar value of all contracts 9 to female owned businesses. Without limiting the generality 10 of the foregoing, the programs shall require in connection 11 with the prequalification or consideration of vendors for 12 professional service contracts, construction contracts, and 13 contracts for supplies, materials, equipment, and services 14 that each proposer or bidder submit as part of his or her 15 proposal or bid a commitment detailing how he or she will 16 expend 25% or more of the dollar value of his or her 17 contracts with one or more minority owned businesses and 5% 18 or more of the dollar value with one or more female owned 19 businesses. Bids or proposals that do not include such 20 detailed commitments are not responsive and shall be rejected 21 unless the Authority deems it appropriate to grant a waiver 22 of these requirements. In addition the Authority may, in 23 connection with the selection of providers of professional 24 services, reserve the right to select a minority or female 25 owned business or businesses to fulfill the commitment to 26 minority and female business participation. The commitment 27 to minority and female business participation may be met by 28 the contractor or professional service provider's status as a 29 minority or female owned business, by joint venture or by 30 subcontracting a portion of the work with or purchasing 31 materials for the work from one or more such businesses, or 32 by any combination thereof. Each contract shall require the 33 contractor or provider to submit a certified monthly report 34 detailing the status of that contractor or provider's SB1591 Engrossed -455- LRB9111045EGfg 1 compliance with the Authority's minority and female owned 2 business enterprise procurement program. The Authority, 3 after reviewing the monthly reports of the contractors and 4 providers, shall compile a comprehensive report regarding 5 compliance with this procurement program and file it 6 quarterly with the General Assembly. If, in connection with 7 a particular contract, the Authority determines that it is 8 impracticable or excessively costly to obtain minority or 9 female owned businesses to perform sufficient work to fulfill 10 the commitment required by this subsection, the Authority 11 shall reduce or waive the commitment in the contract, as may 12 be appropriate. The Authority shall establish rules and 13 regulations setting forth the standards to be used in 14 determining whether or not a reduction or waiver is 15 appropriate. The terms "minority owned business" and "female 16 owned business" have the meanings given to those terms in the 17Minority and FemaleBusiness Enterprise for Minorities, 18 Females, and Persons with Disabilities Act. 19 (c) The Authority shall adopt and maintain an 20 affirmative action program in connection with the hiring of 21 minorities and women on the Expansion Project and on any and 22 all construction projects undertaken by the Authority. The 23 program shall be designed to promote equal employment 24 opportunity and shall specify the goals and methods for 25 increasing the participation of minorities and women in a 26 representative mix of job classifications required to perform 27 the respective contracts awarded by the Authority. 28 (d) In connection with the Expansion Project, the 29 Authority shall incorporate the following elements into its 30 minority and female owned business procurement programs to 31 the extent feasible: (1) a major contractors program that 32 permits minority owned businesses and female owned businesses 33 to bear significant responsibility and risk for a portion of 34 the project; (2) a mentor/protege program that provides SB1591 Engrossed -456- LRB9111045EGfg 1 financial, technical, managerial, equipment, and personnel 2 support to minority owned businesses and female owned 3 businesses; (3) an emerging firms program that includes 4 minority owned businesses and female owned businesses that 5 would not otherwise qualify for the project due to 6 inexperience or limited resources; (4) a small projects 7 program that includes participation by smaller minority owned 8 businesses and female owned businesses on jobs where the 9 total dollar value is $5,000,000 or less; and (5) a set-aside 10 program that will identify contracts requiring the 11 expenditure of funds less than $50,000 for bids to be 12 submitted solely by minority owned businesses and female 13 owned businesses. 14 (e) The Authority is authorized to enter into agreements 15 with contractors' associations, labor unions, and the 16 contractors working on the Expansion Project to establish an 17 Apprenticeship Preparedness Training Program to provide for 18 an increase in the number of minority and female journeymen 19 and apprentices in the building trades and to enter into 20 agreements with Community College District 508 to provide 21 readiness training. The Authority is further authorized to 22 enter into contracts with public and private educational 23 institutions and persons in the hospitality industry to 24 provide training for employment in the hospitality industry. 25 (f) McCormick Place Advisory Board.

Each school board shall (i) furnish a copy of 24 its local policies and procedures to parents and guardians of 25 all students with individualized education plans within 15 26 days after the policies and procedures have been adopted by 27 the school board, or within 15 days after the school board 28 has amended its policies and procedures, or at the time an 29 individualized education plan is first implemented for the 30 student, and (ii) require that each school inform its 31 students of the existence of the policies and procedures 32 annually. Provided, at the annual individualized education 33 plan review, the school board shall (1) explain the local 34 policies and procedures, (2) furnish a copy of the local SB1591 Engrossed -475- LRB9111045EGfg 1 policies to parents and guardians, and (3) make available, 2 upon request of any parents and guardians, a copy of local 3 procedures. 4 (d) The State Superintendent of Education shall consult 5 with representatives of institutions of higher education and 6 the State Teacher Certification Board in regard to the 7 current training requirements for teachers to ensure that 8 sufficient training is available in appropriate behavioral 9 interventions consistent with professionally accepted 10 practices and standards for people entering the field of 11 education. 12 (Source: P.A. 90-63, eff. 7-3-97; 91-600, eff. 8-14-99; 13 revised 11-8-99.) 14 (105 ILCS 5/18-8.05) 15 Sec. 18-8.05. Basis for apportionment of general State 16 financial aid and supplemental general State aid to the 17 common schools for the 1998-1999 and subsequent school years. 18 (A) General Provisions. 19 (1) The provisions of this Section apply to the 20 1998-1999 and subsequent school years. The system of general 21 State financial aid provided for in this Section is designed 22 to assure that, through a combination of State financial aid 23 and required local resources, the financial support provided 24 each pupil in Average Daily Attendance equals or exceeds a 25 prescribed per pupil Foundation Level. This formula approach 26 imputes a level of per pupil Available Local Resources and 27 provides for the basis to calculate a per pupil level of 28 general State financial aid that, when added to Available 29 Local Resources, equals or exceeds the Foundation Level. The 30 amount of per pupil general State financial aid for school 31 districts, in general, varies in inverse relation to 32 Available Local Resources. Per pupil amounts are based upon 33 each school district's Average Daily Attendance as that term SB1591 Engrossed -476- LRB9111045EGfg 1 is defined in this Section. 2 (2) In addition to general State financial aid, school 3 districts with specified levels or concentrations of pupils 4 from low income households are eligible to receive 5 supplemental general State financial aid grants as provided 6 pursuant to subsection (H). The supplemental State aid grants 7 provided for school districts under subsection (H) shall be 8 appropriated for distribution to school districts as part of 9 the same line item in which the general State financial aid 10 of school districts is appropriated under this Section. 11 (3) To receive financial assistance under this Section, 12 school districts are required to file claims with the State 13 Board of Education, subject to the following requirements: 14 (a) Any school district which fails for any given 15 school year to maintain school as required by law, or to 16 maintain a recognized school is not eligible to file for 17 such school year any claim upon the Common School Fund. 18 In case of nonrecognition of one or more attendance 19 centers in a school district otherwise operating 20 recognized schools, the claim of the district shall be 21 reduced in the proportion which the Average Daily 22 Attendance in the attendance center or centers bear to 23 the Average Daily Attendance in the school district. A 24 "recognized school" means any public school which meets 25 the standards as established for recognition by the State 26 Board of Education. A school district or attendance 27 center not having recognition status at the end of a 28 school term is entitled to receive State aid payments due 29 upon a legal claim which was filed while it was 30 recognized. 31 (b) School district claims filed under this Section 32 are subject to Sections 18-9, 18-10, and 18-12, except as 33 otherwise provided in this Section. 34 (c) If a school district operates a full year SB1591 Engrossed -477- LRB9111045EGfg 1 school under Section 10-19.1, the general State aid to 2 the school district shall be determined by the State 3 Board of Education in accordance with this Section as 4 near as may be applicable. 5 (d) (Blank). 6 (4) Except as provided in subsections (H) and (L), the 7 board of any district receiving any of the grants provided 8 for in this Section may apply those funds to any fund so 9 received for which that board is authorized to make 10 expenditures by law. 11 School districts are not required to exert a minimum 12 Operating Tax Rate in order to qualify for assistance under 13 this Section. 14 (5) As used in this Section the following terms, when 15 capitalized, shall have the meaning ascribed herein: 16 (a) "Average Daily Attendance": A count of pupil 17 attendance in school, averaged as provided for in 18 subsection (C) and utilized in deriving per pupil 19 financial support levels. 20 (b) "Available Local Resources": A computation of 21 local financial support, calculated on the basis of 22 Average Daily Attendance and derived as provided pursuant 23 to subsection (D). 24 (c) "Corporate Personal Property Replacement 25 Taxes": Funds paid to local school districts pursuant to 26 "An Act in relation to the abolition of ad valorem 27 personal property tax and the replacement of revenues 28 lost thereby, and amending and repealing certain Acts and 29 parts of Acts in connection therewith", certified August 30 14, 1979, as amended (Public Act 81-1st S.S.-1). 31 (d) "Foundation Level": A prescribed level of per 32 pupil financial support as provided for in subsection 33 (B). 34 (e) "Operating Tax Rate": All school district SB1591 Engrossed -478- LRB9111045EGfg 1 property taxes extended for all purposes, except Bond and 2 Interest, Summer School, Rent, Capital Improvement, and 3 Vocational Education Building purposes. 4 (B) Foundation Level. 5 (1) The Foundation Level is a figure established by the 6 State representing the minimum level of per pupil financial 7 support that should be available to provide for the basic 8 education of each pupil in Average Daily Attendance. As set 9 forth in this Section, each school district is assumed to 10 exert a sufficient local taxing effort such that, in 11 combination with the aggregate of general State financial aid 12 provided the district, an aggregate of State and local 13 resources are available to meet the basic education needs of 14 pupils in the district. 15 (2) For the 1998-1999 school year, the Foundation Level 16 of support is $4,225. For the 1999-2000 school year, the 17 Foundation Level of support is $4,325. For the 2000-2001 18 school year, the Foundation Level of support is $4,425. 19 (3) For the 2001-2002 school year and each school year 20 thereafter, the Foundation Level of support is $4,425 or such 21 greater amount as may be established by law by the General 22 Assembly. 23 (C) Average Daily Attendance. 24 (1) For purposes of calculating general State aid 25 pursuant to subsection (E), an Average Daily Attendance 26 figure shall be utilized. The Average Daily Attendance 27 figure for formula calculation purposes shall be the monthly 28 average of the actual number of pupils in attendance of each 29 school district, as further averaged for the best 3 months of 30 pupil attendance for each school district. In compiling the 31 figures for the number of pupils in attendance, school 32 districts and the State Board of Education shall, for 33 purposes of general State aid funding, conform attendance SB1591 Engrossed -479- LRB9111045EGfg 1 figures to the requirements of subsection (F). 2 (2) The Average Daily Attendance figures utilized in 3 subsection (E) shall be the requisite attendance data for the 4 school year immediately preceding the school year for which 5 general State aid is being calculated. 6 (D) Available Local Resources. 7 (1) For purposes of calculating general State aid 8 pursuant to subsection (E), a representation of Available 9 Local Resources per pupil, as that term is defined and 10 determined in this subsection, shall be utilized. Available 11 Local Resources per pupil shall include a calculated dollar 12 amount representing local school district revenues from local 13 property taxes and from Corporate Personal Property 14 Replacement Taxes, expressed on the basis of pupils in 15 Average Daily Attendance. 16 (2) In determining a school district's revenue from 17 local property taxes, the State Board of Education shall 18 utilize the equalized assessed valuation of all taxable 19 property of each school district as of September 30 of the 20 previous year. The equalized assessed valuation utilized 21 shall be obtained and determined as provided in subsection 22 (G). 23 (3) For school districts maintaining grades kindergarten 24 through 12, local property tax revenues per pupil shall be 25 calculated as the product of the applicable equalized 26 assessed valuation for the district multiplied by 3.00%, and 27 divided by the district's Average Daily Attendance figure. 28 For school districts maintaining grades kindergarten through 29 8, local property tax revenues per pupil shall be calculated 30 as the product of the applicable equalized assessed valuation 31 for the district multiplied by 2.30%, and divided by the 32 district's Average Daily Attendance figure. For school 33 districts maintaining grades 9 through 12, local property tax 34 revenues per pupil shall be the applicable equalized assessed SB1591 Engrossed -480- LRB9111045EGfg 1 valuation of the district multiplied by 1.05%, and divided by 2 the district's Average Daily Attendance figure. 3 (4) The Corporate Personal Property Replacement Taxes 4 paid to each school district during the calendar year 2 years 5 before the calendar year in which a school year begins, 6 divided by the Average Daily Attendance figure for that 7 district, shall be added to the local property tax revenues 8 per pupil as derived by the application of the immediately 9 preceding paragraph (3). The sum of these per pupil figures 10 for each school district shall constitute Available Local 11 Resources as that term is utilized in subsection (E) in the 12 calculation of general State aid. 13 (E) Computation of General State Aid. 14 (1) For each school year, the amount of general State 15 aid allotted to a school district shall be computed by the 16 State Board of Education as provided in this subsection. 17 (2) For any school district for which Available Local 18 Resources per pupil is less than the product of 0.93 times 19 the Foundation Level, general State aid for that district 20 shall be calculated as an amount equal to the Foundation 21 Level minus Available Local Resources, multiplied by the 22 Average Daily Attendance of the school district. 23 (3) For any school district for which Available Local 24 Resources per pupil is equal to or greater than the product 25 of 0.93 times the Foundation Level and less than the product 26 of 1.75 times the Foundation Level, the general State aid per 27 pupil shall be a decimal proportion of the Foundation Level 28 derived using a linear algorithm. Under this linear 29 algorithm, the calculated general State aid per pupil shall 30 decline in direct linear fashion from 0.07 times the 31 Foundation Level for a school district with Available Local 32 Resources equal to the product of 0.93 times the Foundation 33 Level, to 0.05 times the Foundation Level for a school 34 district with Available Local Resources equal to the product SB1591 Engrossed -481- LRB9111045EGfg 1 of 1.75 times the Foundation Level. The allocation of 2 general State aid for school districts subject to this 3 paragraph 3 shall be the calculated general State aid per 4 pupil figure multiplied by the Average Daily Attendance of 5 the school district. 6 (4) For any school district for which Available Local 7 Resources per pupil equals or exceeds the product of 1.75 8 times the Foundation Level, the general State aid for the 9 school district shall be calculated as the product of $218 10 multiplied by the Average Daily Attendance of the school 11 district. 12 (5) The amount of general State aid allocated to a 13 school district for the 1999-2000 school year meeting the 14 requirements set forth in paragraph (4) of subsection (G) 15 shall be increased by an amount equal to the general State 16 aid that would have been received by the district for the 17 1998-1999 school year by utilizing the Extension Limitation 18 Equalized Assessed Valuation as calculated in paragraph (4) 19 of subsection (G) less the general State aid allotted for the 20 1998-1999 school year. This amount shall be deemed a one 21 time increase, and shall not affect any future general State 22 aid allocations. 23 (F) Compilation of Average Daily Attendance. 24 (1) Each school district shall, by July 1 of each year, 25 submit to the State Board of Education, on forms prescribed 26 by the State Board of Education, attendance figures for the 27 school year that began in the preceding calendar year. The 28 attendance information so transmitted shall identify the 29 average daily attendance figures for each month of the school 30 year, except that any days of attendance in August shall be 31 added to the month of September and any days of attendance in 32 June shall be added to the month of May. 33 Except as otherwise provided in this Section, days of 34 attendance by pupils shall be counted only for sessions of SB1591 Engrossed -482- LRB9111045EGfg 1 not less than 5 clock hours of school work per day under 2 direct supervision of: (i) teachers, or (ii) non-teaching 3 personnel or volunteer personnel when engaging in 4 non-teaching duties and supervising in those instances 5 specified in subsection (a) of Section 10-22.34 and paragraph 6 10 of Section 34-18, with pupils of legal school age and in 7 kindergarten and grades 1 through 12. 8 Days of attendance by tuition pupils shall be accredited 9 only to the districts that pay the tuition to a recognized 10 school. 11 (2) Days of attendance by pupils of less than 5 clock 12 hours of school shall be subject to the following provisions 13 in the compilation of Average Daily Attendance. 14 (a) Pupils regularly enrolled in a public school 15 for only a part of the school day may be counted on the 16 basis of 1/6 day for every class hour of instruction of 17 40 minutes or more attended pursuant to such enrollment. 18 (b) Days of attendance may be less than 5 clock 19 hours on the opening and closing of the school term, and 20 upon the first day of pupil attendance, if preceded by a 21 day or days utilized as an institute or teachers' 22 workshop. 23 (c) A session of 4 or more clock hours may be 24 counted as a day of attendance upon certification by the 25 regional superintendent, and approved by the State 26 Superintendent of Education to the extent that the 27 district has been forced to use daily multiple sessions. 28 (d) A session of 3 or more clock hours may be 29 counted as a day of attendance (1) when the remainder of 30 the school day or at least 2 hours in the evening of that 31 day is utilized for an in-service training program for 32 teachers, up to a maximum of 5 days per school year of 33 which a maximum of 4 days of such 5 days may be used for 34 parent-teacher conferences, provided a district conducts SB1591 Engrossed -483- LRB9111045EGfg 1 an in-service training program for teachers which has 2 been approved by the State Superintendent of Education; 3 or, in lieu of 4 such days, 2 full days may be used, in 4 which event each such day may be counted as a day of 5 attendance; and (2) when days in addition to those 6 provided in item (1) are scheduled by a school pursuant 7 to its school improvement plan adopted under Article 34 8 or its revised or amended school improvement plan adopted 9 under Article 2, provided that (i) such sessions of 3 or 10 more clock hours are scheduled to occur at regular 11 intervals, (ii) the remainder of the school days in which 12 such sessions occur are utilized for in-service training 13 programs or other staff development activities for 14 teachers, and (iii) a sufficient number of minutes of 15 school work under the direct supervision of teachers are 16 added to the school days between such regularly scheduled 17 sessions to accumulate not less than the number of 18 minutes by which such sessions of 3 or more clock hours 19 fall short of 5 clock hours. Any full days used for the 20 purposes of this paragraph shall not be considered for 21 computing average daily attendance. Days scheduled for 22 in-service training programs, staff development 23 activities, or parent-teacher conferences may be 24 scheduled separately for different grade levels and 25 different attendance centers of the district. 26 (e) A session of not less than one clock hour of 27 teaching hospitalized or homebound pupils on-site or by 28 telephone to the classroom may be counted as 1/2 day of 29 attendance, however these pupils must receive 4 or more 30 clock hours of instruction to be counted for a full day 31 of attendance. 32 (f) A session of at least 4 clock hours may be 33 counted as a day of attendance for first grade pupils, 34 and pupils in full day kindergartens, and a session of 2 SB1591 Engrossed -484- LRB9111045EGfg 1 or more hours may be counted as 1/2 day of attendance by 2 pupils in kindergartens which provide only 1/2 day of 3 attendance. 4 (g) For children with disabilities who are below 5 the age of 6 years and who cannot attend 2 or more clock 6 hours because of their disability or immaturity, a 7 session of not less than one clock hour may be counted as 8 1/2 day of attendance; however for such children whose 9 educational needs so require a session of 4 or more clock 10 hours may be counted as a full day of attendance. 11 (h) A recognized kindergarten which provides for 12 only 1/2 day of attendance by each pupil shall not have 13 more than 1/2 day of attendance counted in any one day. 14 However, kindergartens may count 2 1/2 days of attendance 15 in any 5 consecutive school days. When a pupil attends 16 such a kindergarten for 2 half days on any one school 17 day, the pupil shall have the following day as a day 18 absent from school, unless the school district obtains 19 permission in writing from the State Superintendent of 20 Education. Attendance at kindergartens which provide for 21 a full day of attendance by each pupil shall be counted 22 the same as attendance by first grade pupils. Only the 23 first year of attendance in one kindergarten shall be 24 counted, except in case of children who entered the 25 kindergarten in their fifth year whose educational 26 development requires a second year of kindergarten as 27 determined under the rules and regulations of the State 28 Board of Education. 29 (G) Equalized Assessed Valuation Data. 30 (1) For purposes of the calculation of Available Local 31 Resources required pursuant to subsection (D), the State 32 Board of Education shall secure from the Department of 33 Revenue the value as equalized or assessed by the Department 34 of Revenue of all taxable property of every school district, SB1591 Engrossed -485- LRB9111045EGfg 1 together with (i) the applicable tax rate used in extending 2 taxes for the funds of the district as of September 30 of the 3 previous year and (ii) the limiting rate for all school 4 districts subject to property tax extension limitations as 5 imposed under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law. 6 This equalized assessed valuation, as adjusted further by 7 the requirements of this subsection, shall be utilized in the 8 calculation of Available Local Resources. 9 (2) The equalized assessed valuation in paragraph (1) 10 shall be adjusted, as applicable, in the following manner: 11 (a) For the purposes of calculating State aid under 12 this Section, with respect to any part of a school 13 district within a redevelopment project area in respect 14 to which a municipality has adopted tax increment 15 allocation financing pursuant to the Tax Increment 16 Allocation Redevelopment Act, Sections 11-74.4-1 through 17 11-74.4-11 of the Illinois Municipal Code or the 18 Industrial Jobs Recovery Law, Sections 11-74.6-1 through 19 11-74.6-50 of the Illinois Municipal Code, no part of the 20 current equalized assessed valuation of real property 21 located in any such project area which is attributable to 22 an increase above the total initial equalized assessed 23 valuation of such property shall be used as part of the 24 equalized assessed valuation of the district, until such 25 time as all redevelopment project costs have been paid, 26 as provided in Section 11-74.4-8 of the Tax Increment 27 Allocation Redevelopment Act or in Section 11-74.6-35 of 28 the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law. For the purpose of the 29 equalized assessed valuation of the district, the total 30 initial equalized assessed valuation or the current 31 equalized assessed valuation, whichever is lower, shall 32 be used until such time as all redevelopment project 33 costs have been paid. 34 (b) The real property equalized assessed valuation SB1591 Engrossed -486- LRB9111045EGfg 1 for a school district shall be adjusted by subtracting 2 from the real property value as equalized or assessed by 3 the Department of Revenue for the district an amount 4 computed by dividing the amount of any abatement of taxes 5 under Section 18-170 of the Property Tax Code by 3.00% 6 for a district maintaining grades kindergarten through 7 12, by 2.30% for a district maintaining grades 8 kindergarten through 8, or by 1.05% for a district 9 maintaining grades 9 through 12 and adjusted by an amount 10 computed by dividing the amount of any abatement of taxes 11 under subsection (a) of Section 18-165 of the Property 12 Tax Code by the same percentage rates for district type 13 as specified in this subparagraph (b). 14 (3) For the 1999-2000 school year and each school year 15 thereafter, if a school district meets all of the criteria of 16 this subsection (G)(3), the school district's Available Local 17 Resources shall be calculated under subsection (D) using the 18 district's Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation 19 as calculated under this subsection (G)(3). 20 For purposes of this subsection (G)(3) the following 21 terms shall have the following meanings: 22 "Budget Year": The school year for which general 23 State aid is calculated and awarded under subsection (E). 24 "Base Tax Year": The property tax levy year used to 25 calculate the Budget Year allocation of general State 26 aid. 27 "Preceding Tax Year": The property tax levy year 28 immediately preceding the Base Tax Year. 29 "Base Tax Year's Tax Extension": The product of the 30 equalized assessed valuation utilized by the County Clerk 31 in the Base Tax Year multiplied by the limiting rate as 32 calculated by the County Clerk and defined in the 33 Property Tax Extension Limitation Law. 34 "Preceding Tax Year's Tax Extension": The product of SB1591 Engrossed -487- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the equalized assessed valuation utilized by the County 2 Clerk in the Preceding Tax Year multiplied by the 3 Operating Tax Rate as defined in subsection (A). 4 "Extension Limitation Ratio": A numerical ratio, 5 certified by the County Clerk, in which the numerator is 6 the Base Tax Year's Tax Extension and the denominator is 7 the Preceding Tax Year's Tax Extension. 8 "Operating Tax Rate": The operating tax rate as 9 defined in subsection (A). 10 If a school district is subject to property tax extension 11 limitations as imposed under the Property Tax Extension 12 Limitation Law, and if the Available Local Resources of that 13 school district as calculated pursuant to subsection (D) 14 using the Base Tax Year are less than the product of 1.75 15 times the Foundation Level for the Budget Year, the State 16 Board of Education shall calculate the Extension Limitation 17 Equalized Assessed Valuation of that district. For the 18 1999-2000 school year, the Extension Limitation Equalized 19 Assessed Valuation of a school district as calculated by the 20 State Board of Education shall be equal to the product of the 21 district's 1996 Equalized Assessed Valuation and the 22 district's Extension Limitation Ratio. For the 2000-2001 23 school year and each school year thereafter, the Extension 24 Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation of a school district 25 as calculated by the State Board of Education shall be equal 26 to the product of the last calculated Extension Limitation 27 Equalized Assessed Valuation and the district's Extension 28 Limitation Ratio. If the Extension Limitation Equalized 29 Assessed Valuation of a school district as calculated under 30 this subsection (G)(3) is less than the district's equalized 31 assessed valuation as calculated pursuant to subsections 32 (G)(1) and (G)(2), then for purposes of calculating the 33 district's general State aid for the Budget Year pursuant to 34 subsection (E), that Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed SB1591 Engrossed -488- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Valuation shall be utilized to calculate the district's 2 Available Local Resources under subsection (D). 3 (4) For the purposes of calculating general State aid 4 for the 1999-2000 school year only, if a school district 5 experienced a triennial reassessment on the equalized 6 assessed valuation used in calculating its general State 7 financial aid apportionment for the 1998-1999 school year, 8 the State Board of Education shall calculate the Extension 9 Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation that would have been 10 used to calculate the district's 1998-1999 general State aid. 11 This amount shall equal the product of the equalized assessed 12 valuation used to calculate general State aid for the 13 1997-1998 school year and the district's Extension Limitation 14 Ratio. If the Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed 15 Valuation of the school district as calculated under this 16 paragraph (4) is less than the district's equalized assessed 17 valuation utilized in calculating the district's 1998-1999 18 general State aid allocation, then for purposes of 19 calculating the district's general State aid pursuant to 20 paragraph (5) of subsection (E), that Extension Limitation 21 Equalized Assessed Valuation shall be utilized to calculate 22 the district's Available Local Resources. 23 (5) For school districts having a majority of their 24 equalized assessed valuation in any county except Cook, 25 DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, or Will, if the amount of 26 general State aid allocated to the school district for the 27 1999-2000 school year under the provisions of subsection (E), 28 (H), and (J) of this Section is less than the amount of 29 general State aid allocated to the district for the 1998-1999 30 school year under these subsections, then the general State 31 aid of the district for the 1999-2000 school year only shall 32 be increased by the difference between these amounts. The 33 total payments made under this paragraph (5) shall not exceed 34 $14,000,000. Claims shall be prorated if they exceed SB1591 Engrossed -489- LRB9111045EGfg 1 $14,000,000. 2 (H) Supplemental General State Aid. 3 (1) In addition to the general State aid a school 4 district is allotted pursuant to subsection (E), qualifying 5 school districts shall receive a grant, paid in conjunction 6 with a district's payments of general State aid, for 7 supplemental general State aid based upon the concentration 8 level of children from low-income households within the 9 school district.

Failure to provide the expenditure 23 report or the notification of remedial or corrective 24 action in a timely manner shall result in a withholding 25 of the affected funds. 26 The State Board of Education shall promulgate rules 27 and regulations to implement the provisions of this 28 subsection. No funds shall be released under this 29 subdivision (H)(4) to any district that has not submitted 30 a plan that has been approved by the State Board of 31 Education. 32 (I) General State Aid for Newly Configured School Districts. 33 (1) For a new school district formed by combining 34 property included totally within 2 or more previously SB1591 Engrossed -494- LRB9111045EGfg 1 existing school districts, for its first year of existence 2 the general State aid and supplemental general State aid 3 calculated under this Section shall be computed for the new 4 district and for the previously existing districts for which 5 property is totally included within the new district. If the 6 computation on the basis of the previously existing districts 7 is greater, a supplementary payment equal to the difference 8 shall be made for the first 4 years of existence of the new 9 district. 10 (2) For a school district which annexes all of the 11 territory of one or more entire other school districts, for 12 the first year during which the change of boundaries 13 attributable to such annexation becomes effective for all 14 purposes as determined under Section 7-9 or 7A-8, the general 15 State aid and supplemental general State aid calculated under 16 this Section shall be computed for the annexing district as 17 constituted after the annexation and for the annexing and 18 each annexed district as constituted prior to the annexation; 19 and if the computation on the basis of the annexing and 20 annexed districts as constituted prior to the annexation is 21 greater, a supplementary payment equal to the difference 22 shall be made for the first 4 years of existence of the 23 annexing school district as constituted upon such annexation. 24 (3) For 2 or more school districts which annex all of 25 the territory of one or more entire other school districts, 26 and for 2 or more community unit districts which result upon 27 the division (pursuant to petition under Section 11A-2) of 28 one or more other unit school districts into 2 or more parts 29 and which together include all of the parts into which such 30 other unit school district or districts are so divided, for 31 the first year during which the change of boundaries 32 attributable to such annexation or division becomes effective 33 for all purposes as determined under Section 7-9 or 11A-10, 34 as the case may be, the general State aid and supplemental SB1591 Engrossed -495- LRB9111045EGfg 1 general State aid calculated under this Section shall be 2 computed for each annexing or resulting district as 3 constituted after the annexation or division and for each 4 annexing and annexed district, or for each resulting and 5 divided district, as constituted prior to the annexation or 6 division; and if the aggregate of the general State aid and 7 supplemental general State aid as so computed for the 8 annexing or resulting districts as constituted after the 9 annexation or division is less than the aggregate of the 10 general State aid and supplemental general State aid as so 11 computed for the annexing and annexed districts, or for the 12 resulting and divided districts, as constituted prior to the 13 annexation or division, then a supplementary payment equal to 14 the difference shall be made and allocated between or among 15 the annexing or resulting districts, as constituted upon such 16 annexation or division, for the first 4 years of their 17 existence. The total difference payment shall be allocated 18 between or among the annexing or resulting districts in the 19 same ratio as the pupil enrollment from that portion of the 20 annexed or divided district or districts which is annexed to 21 or included in each such annexing or resulting district bears 22 to the total pupil enrollment from the entire annexed or 23 divided district or districts, as such pupil enrollment is 24 determined for the school year last ending prior to the date 25 when the change of boundaries attributable to the annexation 26 or division becomes effective for all purposes. The amount 27 of the total difference payment and the amount thereof to be 28 allocated to the annexing or resulting districts shall be 29 computed by the State Board of Education on the basis of 30 pupil enrollment and other data which shall be certified to 31 the State Board of Education, on forms which it shall provide 32 for that purpose, by the regional superintendent of schools 33 for each educational service region in which the annexing and 34 annexed districts, or resulting and divided districts are SB1591 Engrossed -496- LRB9111045EGfg 1 located. 2 (3.5) Claims for financial assistance under this 3 subsection (I) shall not be recomputed except as expressly 4 provided under this Section. 5 (4) Any supplementary payment made under this subsection 6 (I) shall be treated as separate from all other payments made 7 pursuant to this Section. 8 (J) Supplementary Grants in Aid. 9 (1) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this 10 Section, the amount of the aggregate general State aid in 11 combination with supplemental general State aid under this 12 Section for which each school district is eligible shall be 13 no less than the amount of the aggregate general State aid 14 entitlement that was received by the district under Section 15 18-8 (exclusive of amounts received under subsections 5(p) 16 and 5(p-5) of that Section) for the 1997-98 school year, 17 pursuant to the provisions of that Section as it was then in 18 effect. If a school district qualifies to receive a 19 supplementary payment made under this subsection (J), the 20 amount of the aggregate general State aid in combination with 21 supplemental general State aid under this Section which that 22 district is eligible to receive for each school year shall be 23 no less than the amount of the aggregate general State aid 24 entitlement that was received by the district under Section 25 18-8 (exclusive of amounts received under subsections 5(p) 26 and 5(p-5) of that Section) for the 1997-1998 school year, 27 pursuant to the provisions of that Section as it was then in 28 effect. 29 (2) If, as provided in paragraph (1) of this subsection 30 (J), a school district is to receive aggregate general State 31 aid in combination with supplemental general State aid under 32 this Section for the 1998-99 school year and any subsequent 33 school year that in any such school year is less than the 34 amount of the aggregate general State aid entitlement that SB1591 Engrossed -497- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the district received for the 1997-98 school year, the school 2 district shall also receive, from a separate appropriation 3 made for purposes of this subsection (J), a supplementary 4 payment that is equal to the amount of the difference in the 5 aggregate State aid figures as described in paragraph (1). 6 (3) (Blank). 7 (K) Grants to Laboratory and Alternative Schools. 8 In calculating the amount to be paid to the governing 9 board of a public university that operates a laboratory 10 school under this Section or to any alternative school that 11 is operated by a regional superintendent of schools, the 12 State Board of Education shall require by rule such reporting 13 requirements as it deems necessary. 14 As used in this Section, "laboratory school" means a 15 public school which is created and operated by a public 16 university and approved by the State Board of Education.

A regional superintendent of schools may contract SB1591 Engrossed -498- LRB9111045EGfg 1 with a school district or a public community college district 2 to operate an alternative school. An alternative school 3 serving more than one educational service region may be 4 established by the regional superintendents of schools of the 5 affected educational service regions. An alternative school 6 serving more than one educational service region may be 7 operated under such terms as the regional superintendents of 8 schools of those educational service regions may agree. 9 Each laboratory and alternative school shall file, on 10 forms provided by the State Superintendent of Education, an 11 annual State aid claim which states the Average Daily 12 Attendance of the school's students by month. The best 3 13 months' Average Daily Attendance shall be computed for each 14 school. The general State aid entitlement shall be computed 15 by multiplying the applicable Average Daily Attendance by the 16 Foundation Level as determined under this Section. 17 (L) Payments, Additional Grants in Aid and Other 18 Requirements. 19 (1) For a school district operating under the financial 20 supervision of an Authority created under Article 34A, the 21 general State aid otherwise payable to that district under 22 this Section, but not the supplemental general State aid, 23 shall be reduced by an amount equal to the budget for the 24 operations of the Authority as certified by the Authority to 25 the State Board of Education, and an amount equal to such 26 reduction shall be paid to the Authority created for such 27 district for its operating expenses in the manner provided in 28 Section 18-11. The remainder of general State school aid for 29 any such district shall be paid in accordance with Article 30 34A when that Article provides for a disposition other than 31 that provided by this Article. 32 (2) (Blank). 33 (3) Summer school.

The 17 amount of the aid shall equal 90% of the per capita 18 funding paid to the charter school during the first year 19 of its initial charter term, 65% of the per capita 20 funding paid to the charter school during the second year 21 of its initial term, and 35% of the per capita funding 22 paid to the charter school during the third year of its 23 initial term. This transition impact aid shall be paid 24 to the local school board in equal quarterly 25 installments, with the payment of the installment for the 26 first quarter being made by August 1st immediately 27 preceding the first, second, and third years of the 28 initial term.

The State Board 10 may use up to 3% of the appropriation to contract with a 11 non-profit entity to administer the loan program. 12 (4) A charter school may apply for and receive, 13 subject to the same restrictions applicable to school 14 districts, any grant administered by the State Board that 15 is available for school districts. 16 (Source: P.A. 91-407, eff. 8-3-99; revised 8-4-99.) 17 (105 ILCS 5/34-8.3) (from Ch. 122, par. 34-8.3) 18 Sec. 34-8.3. Remediation and probation of attendance 19 centers. 20 (a) The general superintendent shall monitor the 21 performance of the attendance centers within the district and 22 shall identify attendance centers, pursuant to criteria that 23 the board shall establish, in which: 24 (1) there is a failure to develop, implement, or 25 comply with a school improvement plan; 26 (2) there is a pervasive breakdown in the 27 educational program as indicated by factors, including, 28 but not limited to, the absence of improvement in student 29 reading and math achievement scores, an increased 30 drop-out rate, a decreased graduation rate, and a 31 decrease in rate of student attendance; 32 (3) (blank); or 33 (4) there is a failure or refusal to comply with SB1591 Engrossed -511- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the provisions of this Act, other applicable laws, 2 collective bargaining agreements, court orders, or with 3 Board rules which the Board is authorized to promulgate. 4 (b) If the general superintendent identifies a 5 nonperforming school as described herein, he or she shall 6 place the attendance center on remediation by developing a 7 remediation plan for the center. The purpose of the 8 remediation plan shall be to correct the deficiencies in the 9 performance of the attendance center by one or more of the 10 following methods: 11 (1) drafting a new school improvement plan; 12 (2) applying to the board for additional funding 13 for training for the local school council; 14 (3) directing implementation of a school 15 improvement plan; 16 (4) mediating disputes or other obstacles to reform 17 or improvement at the attendance center. 18 If, however, the general superintendent determines that 19 the problems are not able to be remediated by these methods, 20 the general superintendent shall place the attendance center 21 on probation. The board shall establish guidelines that 22 determine the factors for placing an attendance center on 23 probation. 24 (c) Each school placed on probation shall have a school 25 improvement plan and school budget for correcting 26 deficiencies identified by the board. The plan shall include 27 specific steps that the local school council and school staff 28 must take to correct identified deficiencies and specific 29 objective criteria by which the school's subsequent progress 30 will be determined. The school budget shall include specific 31 expenditures directly calculated to correct educational and 32 operational deficiencies identified at the school by the 33 probation team. 34 (d) Schools placed on probation that, after a maximum of SB1591 Engrossed -512- LRB9111045EGfg 1 one year, fail to make adequate progress in correcting 2 deficiencies are subject to the following action by the 3 general superintendent with the approval of the board, after 4 opportunity for a hearing: 5 (1) Ordering new local school council elections. 6 (2) Removing and replacing the principal. 7 (3) Replacement of faculty members, subject to the 8 provisions of Section 24A-5. 9 (4) Reconstitution of the attendance center and 10 replacement and reassignment by the general 11 superintendent of all employees of the attendance center. 12 (5) Intervention under Section 34-8.4. 13 (6) Closing of the school. 14 (e) Schools placed on probation shall remain on 15 probation from year to year until deficiencies are corrected, 16 even if such schools make acceptable annual progress. The 17 board shall establish, in writing, criteria for determining 18 whether or not a school shall remain on probation. If 19 academic achievement tests are used as the factor for placing 20 a school on probation, the general superintendent shall 21 consider objective criteria, not just an increase in test 22 scores, in deciding whether or not a school shall remain on 23 probation. These criteria shall include attendance, test 24 scores, student mobility rates, poverty rates, bilingual 25 education eligibility, special education, and English 26 language proficiency programs, with progress made in these 27 areas being taken into consideration in deciding whether or 28 not a school shall remain on probation. 29 (f) Where the board has reason to believe that 30 violations of civil rights, or of civil or criminal law have 31 occurred, or when the general superintendent deems that the 32 school is in educational crisis it may take immediate 33 corrective action, including the actions specified in this 34 Section, without first placing the school on remediation or SB1591 Engrossed -513- LRB9111045EGfg 1 probation. Nothing described herein shall limit the 2 authority of the board as provided by any law of this State. 3 The board shall develop criteria governing the determination 4 regarding when a school is in educational crisis. 5 (g) All persons serving as subdistrict superintendent on 6 May 1, 1995 shall be deemed by operation of law to be serving 7 under a performance contract which expires on June 30, 1995, 8 and the employment of each such person as subdistrict 9 superintendent shall terminate on June 30, 1995. The board 10 shall have no obligation to compensate any such person as a 11 subdistrict superintendent after June 30, 1995. 12 (h) The general superintendent shall, in consultation 13 with local school councils, conduct an annual evaluation of 14 each principal in the district pursuant to guidelines 15 promulgated by the Board of Education. 16 (Source: P.A. 91-219, eff. 1-1-00; 91-622, eff. 8-19-99; 17 revised 10-13-99.) 18 (105 ILCS 5/34-18.18) 19 Sec. 34-18.18.

Monetary award program. 11 (a) The Commission shall, each year, receive and 12 consider applications for grant assistance under this 13 Section. Subject to a separate appropriation for such 14 purposes, an applicant is eligible for a grant under this 15 Section when the Commission finds that the applicant: 16 (1) is a resident of this State and a citizen or 17 permanent resident of the United States; and 18 (2) in the absence of grant assistance, will be 19 deterred by financial considerations from completing an 20 educational program at the qualified institution of his 21 or her choice. 22 (b) The Commission shall award renewals only upon the 23 student's application and upon the Commission's finding that 24 the applicant: 25 (1) has remained a student in good standing; 26 (2) remains a resident of this State; and 27 (3) is in a financial situation that continues to 28 warrant assistance. 29 (c) All grants shall be applicable only to tuition and 30 necessary fee costs for 2 semesters or 3 quarters in an 31 academic year. Requests for summer term assistance will be 32 made separately and shall be considered on an individual SB1591 Engrossed -522- LRB9111045EGfg 1 basis according to Commission policy. Each student who is 2 awarded a grant under this Section and is enrolled in summer 3 school classes shall be eligible for a summer school grant. 4 The summer school grant amount shall not exceed the lesser of 5 50 percent of the maximum annual grant amount authorized by 6 this Section or the actual cost of tuition and fees at the 7 institution at which the student is enrolled at least 8 part-time. For the regular academic year, the Commission 9 shall determine the grant amount for each full-time and 10 part-time student, which shall be the smallest of the 11 following amounts: 12 (1) $4,530 for 2 semesters or 3 quarters of 13 full-time undergraduate enrollment or $2,265 for 2 14 semesters or 3 quarters of part-time undergraduate 15 enrollment, or such lesser amount as the Commission finds 16 to be available; or 17 (2) the amount which equals the 2 semesters or 3 18 quarters tuition and other necessary fees required 19 generally by the institution of all full-time 20 undergraduate students, or in the case of part-time 21 students an amount of tuition and fees for 2 semesters or 22 3 quarters which shall not exceed one-half the amount of 23 tuition and necessary fees generally charged to full-time 24 undergraduate students by the institution; or 25 (3) such amount as the Commission finds to be 26 appropriate in view of the applicant's financial 27 resources. 28 "Tuition and other necessary fees" as used in this Section 29 include the customary charge for instruction and use of 30 facilities in general, and the additional fixed fees charged 31 for specified purposes, which are required generally of 32 nongrant recipients for each academic period for which the 33 grant applicant actually enrolls, but do not include fees 34 payable only once or breakage fees and other contingent SB1591 Engrossed -523- LRB9111045EGfg 1 deposits which are refundable in whole or in part. The 2 Commission may prescribe, by rule not inconsistent with this 3 Section, detailed provisions concerning the computation of 4 tuition and other necessary fees. 5 (d) No applicant, including those presently receiving 6 scholarship assistance under this Act, is eligible for 7 monetary award program consideration under this Act after 8 receiving a baccalaureate degree or the equivalent of 10 9 semesters or 15 quarters of award payments. The Commission 10 shall determine when award payments for part-time enrollment 11 or interim or summer terms shall be counted as a partial 12 semester or quarter of payment. 13 (e) The Commission, in determining the number of grants 14 to be offered, shall take into consideration past experience 15 with the rate of grant funds unclaimed by recipients. The 16 Commission shall notify applicants that grant assistance is 17 contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds. 18 (f) The Commission may request appropriations for 19 deposit into the Monetary Award Program Reserve Fund.

Amounts on deposit in 23 the Monetary Award Program Reserve Fund may not exceed 2% of 24 the current annual State appropriation for the Monetary Award 25 Program. 26 The purpose of the Monetary Award Program Reserve Fund is 27 to enable the Commission each year to assure as many students 28 as possible of their eligibility for a Monetary Award Program 29 grant and to do so before commencement of the academic year. 30 Moneys deposited in this Reserve Fund are intended to enhance 31 the Commission's management of the Monetary Award Program, 32 minimizing the necessity, magnitude, and frequency of 33 adjusting award amounts and ensuring that the annual Monetary 34 Award Program appropriation can be fully utilized.

Child and Spouse Support Unit. The 20 Illinois Department shall establish within its administrative 21 staff a Child and Spouse Support Unit to search for and 22 locate absent parents and spouses liable for the support of 23 persons resident in this State and to exercise the support 24 enforcement powers and responsibilities assigned the 25 Department by this Article. The unit shall cooperate with 26 all law enforcement officials in this State and with the 27 authorities of other States in locating persons responsible 28 for the support of persons resident in other States and shall 29 invite the cooperation of these authorities in the 30 performance of its duties. 31 In addition to other duties assigned the Child and Spouse 32 Support Unit by this Article, the Unit may refer to the 33 Attorney General or units of local government with the SB1591 Engrossed -632- LRB9111045EGfg 1 approval of the Attorney General, any actions under Sections 2 10-10 and 10-15 for judicial enforcement of the support 3 liability. The Child and Spouse Support Unit shall act for 4 the Department in referring to the Attorney General support 5 matters requiring judicial enforcement under other laws. If 6 requested by the Attorney General to so act, as provided in 7 Section 12-16, attorneys of the Unit may assist the Attorney 8 General or themselves institute actions in behalf of the 9 Illinois Department under the Revised Uniform Reciprocal 10 Enforcement of Support Act; under the Illinois Parentage Act 11 of 1984; under the Non-Support of Spouse and Children Act; 12 under the Non-Support Punishment Act; or under any other law, 13 State or Federal, providing for support of a spouse or 14 dependent child. 15 The Illinois Department shall also have the authority to 16 enter into agreements with local governmental units or 17 individuals, with the approval of the Attorney General, for 18 the collection of moneys owing because of the failure of a 19 parent to make child support payments for any child receiving 20 services under this Article. Such agreements may be on a 21 contingent fee basis, but such contingent fee shall not 22 exceed 25% of the total amount collected. 23 An attorney who provides representation pursuant to this 24 Section shall represent the Illinois Department exclusively. 25 Regardless of the designation of the plaintiff in an action 26 brought pursuant to this Section, an attorney-client 27 relationship does not exist for purposes of that action 28 between that attorney and (i) an applicant for or recipient 29 of child and spouse support services or (ii) any other party 30 to the action other than the Illinois Department. Nothing in 31 this Section shall be construed to modify any power or duty 32 (including a duty to maintain confidentiality) of the Child 33 and Spouse Support Unit or the Illinois Department otherwise 34 provided by law. SB1591 Engrossed -633- LRB9111045EGfg 1 The Illinois Department may also enter into agreements 2 with local governmental units for the Child and Spouse 3 Support Unit to exercise the investigative and enforcement 4 powers designated in this Article, including the issuance of 5 administrative orders under Section 10-11, in locating 6 responsible relatives and obtaining support for persons 7 applying for or receiving aid under Article VI. Payments for 8 defrayment of administrative costs and support payments 9 obtained shall be deposited into the DHS Recoveries Trust 10 Fund. Support payments shall be paid over to the General 11 Assistance Fund of the local governmental unit at such time 12 or times as the agreement may specify. 13 With respect to those cases in which it has support 14 enforcement powers and responsibilities under this Article, 15 the Illinois Department may provide by rule for periodic or 16 other review of each administrative and court order for 17 support to determine whether a modification of the order 18 should be sought. The Illinois Department shall provide for 19 and conduct such review in accordance with any applicable 20 federal law and regulation. 21 As part of its process for review of orders for support, 22 the Illinois Department, through written notice, may require 23 the responsible relative to disclose his or her Social 24 Security Number and past and present information concerning 25 the relative's address, employment, gross wages, deductions 26 from gross wages, net wages, bonuses, commissions, number of 27 dependent exemptions claimed, individual and dependent health 28 insurance coverage, and any other information necessary to 29 determine the relative's ability to provide support in a case 30 receiving child and spouse support services under this 31 Article X. 32 The Illinois Department may send a written request for 33 the same information to the relative's employer. The 34 employer shall respond to the request for information within SB1591 Engrossed -634- LRB9111045EGfg 1 15 days after the date the employer receives the request. If 2 the employer willfully fails to fully respond within the 3 15-day period, the employer shall pay a penalty of $100 for 4 each day that the response is not provided to the Illinois 5 Department after the 15-day period has expired. The penalty 6 may be collected in a civil action which may be brought 7 against the employer in favor of the Illinois Department. 8 A written request for information sent to an employer 9 pursuant to this Section shall consist of (i) a citation of 10 this Section as the statutory authority for the request and 11 for the employer's obligation to provide the requested 12 information, (ii) a returnable form setting forth the 13 employer's name and address and listing the name of the 14 employee with respect to whom information is requested, and 15 (iii) a citation of this Section as the statutory authority 16 authorizing the employer to withhold a fee of up to $20 from 17 the wages or income to be paid to each responsible relative 18 for providing the information to the Illinois Department 19 within the 15-day period. If the employer is withholding 20 support payments from the responsible relative's income 21 pursuant to an order for withholding, the employer may 22 withhold the fee provided for in this Section only after 23 withholding support as required under the order. Any amounts 24 withheld from the responsible relative's income for payment 25 of support and the fee provided for in this Section shall not 26 be in excess of the amounts permitted under the federal 27 Consumer Credit Protection Act. 28 In a case receiving child and spouse support services, 29 the Illinois Department may request and obtain information 30 from a particular employer under this Section no more than 31 once in any 12-month period, unless the information is 32 necessary to conduct a review of a court or administrative 33 order for support at the request of the person receiving 34 child and spouse support services. SB1591 Engrossed -635- LRB9111045EGfg 1 The Illinois Department shall establish and maintain an 2 administrative unit to receive and transmit to the Child and 3 Spouse Support Unit information supplied by persons applying 4 for or receiving child and spouse support services under 5 Section 10-1. In addition, the Illinois Department shall 6 address and respond to any alleged deficiencies that persons 7 receiving or applying for services from the Child and Spouse 8 Support Unit may identify concerning the Child and Spouse 9 Support Unit's provision of child and spouse support 10 services. Within 60 days after an action or failure to act by 11 the Child and Spouse Support Unit that affects his or her 12 case, a recipient of or applicant for child and spouse 13 support services under Article X of this Code may request an 14 explanation of the Unit's handling of the case. At the 15 requestor's option, the explanation may be provided either 16 orally in an interview, in writing, or both. If the Illinois 17 Department fails to respond to the request for an explanation 18 or fails to respond in a manner satisfactory to the applicant 19 or recipient within 30 days from the date of the request for 20 an explanation, the applicant or recipient may request a 21 conference for further review of the matter by the Office of 22 the Administrator of the Child and Spouse Support Unit. A 23 request for a conference may be submitted at any time within 24 60 days after the explanation has been provided by the Child 25 and Spouse Support Unit or within 60 days after the time for 26 providing the explanation has expired. 27 The applicant or recipient may request a conference 28 concerning any decision denying or terminating child or 29 spouse support services under Article X of this Code, and the 30 applicant or recipient may also request a conference 31 concerning the Unit's failure to provide services or the 32 provision of services in an amount or manner that is 33 considered inadequate. For purposes of this Section, the 34 Child and Spouse Support Unit includes all local governmental SB1591 Engrossed -636- LRB9111045EGfg 1 units or individuals with whom the Illinois Department has 2 contracted under Section 10-3.1. 3 Upon receipt of a timely request for a conference, the 4 Office of the Administrator shall review the case. The 5 applicant or recipient requesting the conference shall be 6 entitled, at his or her option, to appear in person or to 7 participate in the conference by telephone. The applicant or 8 recipient requesting the conference shall be entitled to be 9 represented and to be afforded a reasonable opportunity to 10 review the Illinois Department's file before or at the 11 conference. At the conference, the applicant or recipient 12 requesting the conference shall be afforded an opportunity to 13 present all relevant matters in support of his or her claim. 14 Conferences shall be without cost to the applicant or 15 recipient requesting the conference and shall be conducted by 16 a representative of the Child or Spouse Support Unit who did 17 not participate in the action or inaction being reviewed. 18 The Office of the Administrator shall conduct a 19 conference and inform all interested parties, in writing, of 20 the results of the conference within 60 days from the date of 21 filing of the request for a conference. 22 In addition to its other powers and responsibilities 23 established by this Article, the Child and Spouse Support 24 Unit shall conduct an annual assessment of each institution's 25 program for institution based paternity establishment under 26 Section 12 of the Vital Records Act. 27 (Source: P.A. 90-18, eff. 7-1-97; 91-24, eff. 7-1-99; 91-613, 28 eff. 10-1-99; revised 9-28-99.) 29 (305 ILCS 5/10-8) (from Ch. 23, par. 10-8) 30 Sec. 10-8. Support Payments - Partial Support - Full 31 Support. The notice to responsible relatives issued pursuant 32 to Section 10-7 shall direct payment (a) to the Illinois 33 Department in cases of applicants and recipients under SB1591 Engrossed -637- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Articles III, IV, V and VII, (b) except as provided in 2 Section 10-3.1, to the local governmental unit in the case of 3 applicants and recipients under Article VI, and (c) to the 4 Illinois Department in cases of non-applicants and 5 non-recipients given access to the child and spouse support 6 services of this Article, as provided by Section 10-1. 7 However, if the support payments by responsible relatives are 8 sufficient to meet needs of a recipient in full, including 9 current and anticipated medical needs, and the Illinois 10 Department or the local governmental unit, as the case may 11 be, has reasonable grounds to believe that such needs will 12 continue to be provided in full by the responsible relatives, 13 the relatives may be directed to make subsequent support 14 payments to the needy person or to some person or agency in 15 his behalf and the recipient shall be removed from the rolls. 16 In such instance the recipient also shall be notified by 17 registered or certified mail of the action taken. If a 18 recipient removed from the rolls requests the Illinois 19 Department to continue to collect the support payments in his 20 behalf, the Department, at its option, may do so and pay 21 amounts so collected to the person. The Department may 22 provide for deducting any costs incurred by it in making the 23 collection from the amount of any recovery made and pay only 24 the net amount to the person. 25 Payments under this Section to the Illinois Department 26 pursuant to the Child Support Enforcement Program established 27 by Title IV-D of the Social Security Act shall be paid into 28 the Child Support Enforcement Trust Fund. All payments under 29 this Section to the Illinois Department of Human Services 30 shall be deposited in the DHS Recoveries Trust Fund. 31 Disbursements from these funds shall be as provided in 32 Sections 12-9.1 and 12-10.2 of this Code. Payments received 33 by a local governmental unit shall be deposited in that 34 unit's General Assistance Fund. SB1591 Engrossed -638- LRB9111045EGfg 1 To the extent the provisions of this Section are 2 inconsistent with the requirements pertaining to the State 3 Disbursement Unit under Sections 10-10.4 and 10-26 of this 4 Code, the requirements pertaining to the State Disbursement 5 Unit shall apply. 6 (Source: P.A. 91-24, eff. 7-1-99; 91-212, eff. 7-20-99; 7 revised 9-28-99.) 8 (305 ILCS 5/10-10) (from Ch. 23, par. 10-10) 9 Sec. 10-10. Court enforcement; applicability also to 10 persons who are not applicants or recipients. Except where 11 the Illinois Department, by agreement, acts for the local 12 governmental unit, as provided in Section 10-3.1, local 13 governmental units shall refer to the State's Attorney or to 14 the proper legal representative of the governmental unit, for 15 judicial enforcement as herein provided, instances of 16 non-support or insufficient support when the dependents are 17 applicants or recipients under Article VI. The Child and 18 Spouse Support Unit established by Section 10-3.1 may 19 institute in behalf of the Illinois Department any actions 20 under this Section for judicial enforcement of the support 21 liability when the dependents are (a) applicants or 22 recipients under Articles III, IV, V or VII (b) applicants or 23 recipients in a local governmental unit when the Illinois 24 Department, by agreement, acts for the unit; or (c) 25 non-applicants or non-recipients who are receiving support 26 enforcement services under this Article X, as provided in 27 Section 10-1. Where the Child and Spouse Support Unit has 28 exercised its option and discretion not to apply the 29 provisions of Sections 10-3 through 10-8, the failure by the 30 Unit to apply such provisions shall not be a bar to bringing 31 an action under this Section. 32 Action shall be brought in the circuit court to obtain 33 support, or for the recovery of aid granted during the period SB1591 Engrossed -639- LRB9111045EGfg 1 such support was not provided, or both for the obtainment of 2 support and the recovery of the aid provided. Actions for 3 the recovery of aid may be taken separately or they may be 4 consolidated with actions to obtain support. Such actions 5 may be brought in the name of the person or persons requiring 6 support, or may be brought in the name of the Illinois 7 Department or the local governmental unit, as the case 8 requires, in behalf of such persons. 9 The court may enter such orders for the payment of moneys 10 for the support of the person as may be just and equitable 11 and may direct payment thereof for such period or periods of 12 time as the circumstances require, including support for a 13 period before the date the order for support is entered. The 14 order may be entered against any or all of the defendant 15 responsible relatives and may be based upon the proportionate 16 ability of each to contribute to the person's support. 17 The Court shall determine the amount of child support 18 (including child support for a period before the date the 19 order for child support is entered) by using the guidelines 20 and standards set forth in subsection (a) of Section 505 and 21 in Section 505.2 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of 22 Marriage Act. For purposes of determining the amount of child 23 support to be paid for a period before the date the order for 24 child support is entered, there is a rebuttable presumption 25 that the responsible relative's net income for that period 26 was the same as his or her net income at the time the order 27 is entered. 28 An order entered under this Section shall include a 29 provision requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and 30 to the clerk of court within 10 days each time the obligor 31 obtains new employment, and each time the obligor's 32 employment is terminated for any reason. The report shall be 33 in writing and shall, in the case of new employment, include 34 the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report SB1591 Engrossed -640- LRB9111045EGfg 1 new employment or the termination of current employment, if 2 coupled with nonpayment of support for a period in excess of 3 60 days, is indirect criminal contempt. For any obligor 4 arrested for failure to report new employment bond shall be 5 set in the amount of the child support that should have been 6 paid during the period of unreported employment. An order 7 entered under this Section shall also include a provision 8 requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each 9 other of a change in residence within 5 days of the change 10 except when the court finds that the physical, mental, or 11 emotional health of a party or that of a minor child, or 12 both, would be seriously endangered by disclosure of the 13 party's address. 14 The Court shall determine the amount of maintenance using 15 the standards set forth in Section 504 of the Illinois 16 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. 17 Any new or existing support order entered by the court 18 under this Section shall be deemed to be a series of 19 judgments against the person obligated to pay support 20 thereunder, each such judgment to be in the amount of each 21 payment or installment of support and each such judgment to 22 be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment or 23 installment becomes due under the terms of the support order. 24 Each such judgment shall have the full force, effect and 25 attributes of any other judgment of this State, including the 26 ability to be enforced. Any such judgment is subject to 27 modification or termination only in accordance with Section 28 510 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. 29 A lien arises by operation of law against the real and 30 personal property of the noncustodial parent for each 31 installment of overdue support owed by the noncustodial 32 parent. 33 When an order is entered for the support of a minor, the 34 court may provide therein for reasonable visitation of the SB1591 Engrossed -641- LRB9111045EGfg 1 minor by the person or persons who provided support pursuant 2 to the order. Whoever willfully refuses to comply with such 3 visitation order or willfully interferes with its enforcement 4 may be declared in contempt of court and punished therefor. 5 Except where the local governmental unit has entered into 6 an agreement with the Illinois Department for the Child and 7 Spouse Support Unit to act for it, as provided in Section 8 10-3.1, support orders entered by the court in cases 9 involving applicants or recipients under Article VI shall 10 provide that payments thereunder be made directly to the 11 local governmental unit. Orders for the support of all other 12 applicants or recipients shall provide that payments 13 thereunder be made directly to the Illinois Department. In 14 accordance with federal law and regulations, the Illinois 15 Department may continue to collect current maintenance 16 payments or child support payments, or both, after those 17 persons cease to receive public assistance and until 18 termination of services under Article X. The Illinois 19 Department shall pay the net amount collected to those 20 persons after deducting any costs incurred in making the 21 collection or any collection fee from the amount of any 22 recovery made. In both cases the order shall permit the 23 local governmental unit or the Illinois Department, as the 24 case may be, to direct the responsible relative or relatives 25 to make support payments directly to the needy person, or to 26 some person or agency in his behalf, upon removal of the 27 person from the public aid rolls or upon termination of 28 services under Article X. 29 If the notice of support due issued pursuant to Section 30 10-7 directs that support payments be made directly to the 31 needy person, or to some person or agency in his behalf, and 32 the recipient is removed from the public aid rolls, court 33 action may be taken against the responsible relative 34 hereunder if he fails to furnish support in accordance with SB1591 Engrossed -642- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the terms of such notice. 2 Actions may also be brought under this Section in behalf 3 of any person who is in need of support from responsible 4 relatives, as defined in Section 2-11 of Article II who is 5 not an applicant for or recipient of financial aid under this 6 Code. In such instances, the State's Attorney of the county 7 in which such person resides shall bring action against the 8 responsible relatives hereunder. If the Illinois Department, 9 as authorized by Section 10-1, extends the support services 10 provided by this Article to spouses and dependent children 11 who are not applicants or recipients under this Code, the 12 Child and Spouse Support Unit established by Section 10-3.1 13 shall bring action against the responsible relatives 14 hereunder and any support orders entered by the court in such 15 cases shall provide that payments thereunder be made directly 16 to the Illinois Department. 17 Whenever it is determined in a proceeding to establish or 18 enforce a child support or maintenance obligation that the 19 person owing a duty of support is unemployed, the court may 20 order the person to seek employment and report periodically 21 to the court with a diary, listing or other memorandum of his 22 or her efforts in accordance with such order. Additionally, 23 the court may order the unemployed person to report to the 24 Department of Employment Security for job search services or 25 to make application with the local Jobs Training Partnership 26 Act provider for participation in job search, training or 27 work programs and where the duty of support is owed to a 28 child receiving support services under this Article X, the 29 court may order the unemployed person to report to the 30 Illinois Department for participation in job search, training 31 or work programs established under Section 9-6 and Article 32 IXA of this Code. 33 Whenever it is determined that a person owes past-due 34 support for a child receiving assistance under this Code, the SB1591 Engrossed -643- LRB9111045EGfg 1 court shall order at the request of the Illinois Department: 2 (1) that the person pay the past-due support in 3 accordance with a plan approved by the court; or 4 (2) if the person owing past-due support is 5 unemployed, is subject to such a plan, and is not 6 incapacitated, that the person participate in such job 7 search, training, or work programs established under 8 Section 9-6 and Article IXA of this Code as the court 9 deems appropriate. 10 A determination under this Section shall not be 11 administratively reviewable by the procedures specified in 12 Sections 10-12, and 10-13 to 10-13.10. Any determination 13 under these Sections, if made the basis of court action under 14 this Section, shall not affect the de novo judicial 15 determination required under this Section. 16 A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the amount of 17 past-due child support owed on July 1, 1988 which has accrued 18 under a support order entered by the court. The charge shall 19 be imposed in accordance with the provisions of Section 10-21 20 of this Code and shall be enforced by the court upon 21 petition. 22 All orders for support, when entered or modified, shall 23 include a provision requiring the non-custodial parent to 24 notify the court and, in cases in which a party is receiving 25 child and spouse support services under this Article X, the 26 Illinois Department, within 7 days, (i) of the name, address, 27 and telephone number of any new employer of the non-custodial 28 parent, (ii) whether the non-custodial parent has access to 29 health insurance coverage through the employer or other group 30 coverage and, if so, the policy name and number and the names 31 of persons covered under the policy, and (iii) of any new 32 residential or mailing address or telephone number of the 33 non-custodial parent. In any subsequent action to enforce a 34 support order, upon a sufficient showing that a diligent SB1591 Engrossed -644- LRB9111045EGfg 1 effort has been made to ascertain the location of the 2 non-custodial parent, service of process or provision of 3 notice necessary in the case may be made at the last known 4 address of the non-custodial parent in any manner expressly 5 provided by the Code of Civil Procedure or this Code, which 6 service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process. 7 An order for support shall include a date on which the 8 current support obligation terminates. The termination date 9 shall be no earlier than the date on which the child covered 10 by the order will attain the age of majority or is otherwise 11 emancipated. The order for support shall state that the 12 termination date does not apply to any arrearage that may 13 remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in this paragraph shall 14 be construed to prevent the court from modifying the order. 15 Upon notification in writing or by electronic 16 transmission from the Illinois Department to the clerk of the 17 court that a person who is receiving support payments under 18 this Section is receiving services under the Child Support 19 Enforcement Program established by Title IV-D of the Social 20 Security Act, any support payments subsequently received by 21 the clerk of the court shall be transmitted in accordance 22 with the instructions of the Illinois Department until the 23 Illinois Department gives notice to the clerk of the court to 24 cease the transmittal. After providing the notification 25 authorized under this paragraph, the Illinois Department 26 shall be entitled as a party to notice of any further 27 proceedings in the case. The clerk of the court shall file a 28 copy of the Illinois Department's notification in the court 29 file. The clerk's failure to file a copy of the 30 notification in the court file shall not, however, affect the 31 Illinois Department's right to receive notice of further 32 proceedings. 33 Payments under this Section to the Illinois Department 34 pursuant to the Child Support Enforcement Program established SB1591 Engrossed -645- LRB9111045EGfg 1 by Title IV-D of the Social Security Act shall be paid into 2 the Child Support Enforcement Trust Fund. All payments under 3 this Section to the Illinois Department of Human Services 4 shall be deposited in the DHS Recoveries Trust Fund. 5 Disbursements from these funds shall be as provided in 6 Sections 12-9.1 and 12-10.2 of this Code. Payments received 7 by a local governmental unit shall be deposited in that 8 unit's General Assistance Fund. 9 To the extent the provisions of this Section are 10 inconsistent with the requirements pertaining to the State 11 Disbursement Unit under Sections 10-10.4 and 10-26 of this 12 Code, the requirements pertaining to the State Disbursement 13 Unit shall apply. 14 (Source: P.A. 90-18, eff. 7-1-97; 90-539, eff. 6-1-98; 15 90-655, eff. 7-30-98; 90-673, eff. 1-1-99; 90-790, eff. 16 8-14-98; 91-24, eff. 7-1-99; 91-212, eff. 7-20-99; 91-357, 17 eff. 7-29-99; revised 8-30-99.) 18 (305 ILCS 5/10-16) (from Ch. 23, par. 10-16) 19 Sec. 10-16.

Section 50-5 29 also contained other provisions. 30 (ii) In addition, Public Act 88-680 was 31 entitled "AN ACT to create a Safe Neighborhoods 32 Law". (A) Article 5 was entitled JUVENILE JUSTICE 33 and amended the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (B) 34 Article 15 was entitled GANGS and amended various SB1591 Engrossed -778- LRB9111045EGfg 1 provisions of the Criminal Code of 1961 and the 2 Unified Code of Corrections.

As of the time 30 this amendatory Act of 1999 was prepared, People v. 31 Dainty was still subject to appeal. 32 (iv) Child pornography is a vital concern to 33 the people of this State and the validity of future 34 prosecutions under the child pornography statute of SB1591 Engrossed -779- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the Criminal Code of 1961 is in grave doubt. 2 (2) It is the purpose of this amendatory Act of 3 1999 to prevent or minimize any problems relating to 4 prosecutions for child pornography that may result from 5 challenges to the constitutional validity of Public Act 6 88-680 by re-enacting the Section relating to child 7 pornography that was included in Public Act 88-680. 8 (3) This amendatory Act of 1999 re-enacts Section 9 11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961, as it has been 10 amended.

Dainty was subject to appeal to the Illinois 18 Supreme Court. 19 (4) The re-enactment by this amendatory Act of 1999 20 of Section 11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 relating 21 to child pornography that was amended by Public Act 22 88-680 is not intended, and shall not be construed, to 23 imply that Public Act 88-680 is invalid or to limit or 24 impair any legal argument concerning whether those 25 provisions were substantially re-enacted by other Public 26 Acts. 27 (Source: P.A. 90-68, eff. 7-8-97; 90-678, eff. 7-31-98; 28 90-786, eff. 1-1-99; 91-54, eff. 6-30-99; 91-229, eff. 29 1-1-00; 91-357, eff. 7-29-99; revised 8-30-99.) 30 (720 ILCS 5/12-3.2) (from Ch. 38, par. 12-3.2) 31 Sec. 12-3.2.

The Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 is 4 amended by changing Sections 110-7 and 110-10 as follows: 5 (725 ILCS 5/110-7) (from Ch. 38, par. 110-7) 6 Sec. 110-7. Deposit of Bail Security. 7 (a) The person for whom bail has been set shall execute 8 the bail bond and deposit with the clerk of the court before 9 which the proceeding is pending a sum of money equal to 10% 10 of the bail, but in no event shall such deposit be less than 11 $25. The clerk of the court shall provide a space on each 12 form for a person other than the accused who has provided the 13 money for the posting of bail to so indicate and a space 14 signed by an accused who has executed the bail bond 15 indicating whether a person other than the accused has 16 provided the money for the posting of bail. The form shall 17 also include a written notice to such person who has provided 18 the defendant with the money for the posting of bail 19 indicating that the bail may be used to pay costs, attorney's 20 fees, fines, or other purposes authorized by the court and if 21 the defendant fails to comply with the conditions of the bail 22 bond, the court shall enter an order declaring the bail to be 23 forfeited. The written notice must be: (1) distinguishable 24 from the surrounding text; (2) in bold type or underscored; 25 and (3) in a type size at least 2 points larger than the 26 surrounding type. When a person for whom bail has been set 27 is charged with an offense under the "Illinois Controlled 28 Substances Act" which is a Class X felony, the court may 29 require the defendant to deposit a sum equal to 100% of the 30 bail. Where any person is charged with a forcible felony 31 while free on bail and is the subject of proceedings under 32 Section 109-3 of this Code the judge conducting the SB1591 Engrossed -828- LRB9111045EGfg 1 preliminary examination may also conduct a hearing upon the 2 application of the State pursuant to the provisions of 3 Section 110-6 of this Code to increase or revoke the bail for 4 that person's prior alleged offense. 5 (b) Upon depositing this sum and any bond fee authorized 6 by law, the person shall be released from custody subject to 7 the conditions of the bail bond. 8 (c) Once bail has been given and a charge is pending or 9 is thereafter filed in or transferred to a court of competent 10 jurisdiction the latter court shall continue the original 11 bail in that court subject to the provisions of Section 110-6 12 of this Code. 13 (d) After conviction the court may order that the 14 original bail stand as bail pending appeal or deny, increase 15 or reduce bail subject to the provisions of Section 110-6.2. 16 (e) After the entry of an order by the trial court 17 allowing or denying bail pending appeal either party may 18 apply to the reviewing court having jurisdiction or to a 19 justice thereof sitting in vacation for an order increasing 20 or decreasing the amount of bail or allowing or denying bail 21 pending appeal subject to the provisions of Section 110-6.2. 22 (f) When the conditions of the bail bond have been 23 performed and the accused has been discharged from all 24 obligations in the cause the clerk of the court shall return 25 to the accused or to the defendant's designee by an 26 assignment executed at the time the bail amount is deposited, 27 unless the court orders otherwise, 90% of the sum which had 28 been deposited and shall retain as bail bond costs 10% of the 29 amount deposited. However, in no event shall the amount 30 retained by the clerk as bail bond costs be less than $5. 31 Bail bond deposited by or on behalf of a defendant in one 32 case may be used, in the court's discretion, to satisfy 33 financial obligations of that same defendant incurred in a 34 different case due to a fine, court costs, restitution or SB1591 Engrossed -829- LRB9111045EGfg 1 fees of the defendant's attorney of record. The court shall 2 not order bail bond deposited by or on behalf of a defendant 3 in one case to be used to satisfy financial obligations of 4 that same defendant in a different case until the bail bond 5 is first used to satisfy court costs in the case in which the 6 bail bond has been deposited. 7 At the request of the defendant the court may order such 8 90% of defendant's bail deposit, or whatever amount is 9 repayable to defendant from such deposit, to be paid to 10 defendant's attorney of record. 11 (g) If the accused does not comply with the conditions 12 of the bail bond the court having jurisdiction shall enter an 13 order declaring the bail to be forfeited. Notice of such 14 order of forfeiture shall be mailed forthwith to the accused 15 at his last known address. If the accused does not appear 16 and surrender to the court having jurisdiction within 30 days 17 from the date of the forfeiture or within such period satisfy 18 the court that appearance and surrender by the accused is 19 impossible and without his fault the court shall enter 20 judgment for the State if the charge for which the bond was 21 given was a felony or misdemeanor, or if the charge was 22 quasi-criminal or traffic, judgment for the political 23 subdivision of the State which prosecuted the case, against 24 the accused for the amount of the bail and costs of the court 25 proceedings; however, in counties with a population of less 26 than 3,000,000, instead of the court entering a judgment for 27 the full amount of the bond the court may, in its discretion, 28 enter judgment for the cash deposit on the bond, less costs, 29 retain the deposit for further disposition or, if a cash bond 30 was posted for failure to appear in a matter involving 31 enforcement of child support or maintenance, the amount of 32 the cash deposit on the bond, less outstanding costs, may be 33 awarded to the person or entity to whom the child support or 34 maintenance is due. The deposit made in accordance with SB1591 Engrossed -830- LRB9111045EGfg 1 paragraph (a) shall be applied to the payment of costs. If 2 judgment is entered and any amount of such deposit remains 3 after the payment of costs it shall be applied to payment of 4 the judgment and transferred to the treasury of the municipal 5 corporation wherein the bond was taken if the offense was a 6 violation of any penal ordinance of a political subdivision 7 of this State, or to the treasury of the county wherein the 8 bond was taken if the offense was a violation of any penal 9 statute of this State. The balance of the judgment may be 10 enforced and collected in the same manner as a judgment 11 entered in a civil action. 12 (h) After a judgment for a fine and court costs or 13 either is entered in the prosecution of a cause in which a 14 deposit had been made in accordance with paragraph (a) the 15 balance of such deposit, after deduction of bail bond costs, 16 shall be applied to the payment of the judgment. 17 (Source: P.A. 91-94, eff. 1-1-00; 91-183, eff. 1-1-00; 18 revised 10-7-99.) 19 (725 ILCS 5/110-10) (from Ch. 38, par. 110-10) 20 Sec. 110-10.

In all other cases, except cases in which 22 restitution is required under this Section, the court must at 23 the sentence hearing determine whether restitution is an 24 appropriate sentence to be imposed on each defendant 25 convicted of an offense. If the court determines that an 26 order directing the offender to make restitution is 27 appropriate, the offender may be sentenced to make 28 restitution. If the offender is sentenced to make 29 restitution the Court shall determine the restitution as 30 hereinafter set forth: 31 (a) At the sentence hearing, the court shall 32 determine whether the property may be restored in kind to 33 the possession of the owner or the person entitled to SB1591 Engrossed -857- LRB9111045EGfg 1 possession thereof; or whether the defendant is possessed 2 of sufficient skill to repair and restore property 3 damaged; or whether the defendant should be required to 4 make restitution in cash, for out-of-pocket expenses, 5 damages, losses, or injuries found to have been 6 proximately caused by the conduct of the defendant or 7 another for whom the defendant is legally accountable 8 under the provisions of Article V of the Criminal Code of 9 1961. 10 (b) In fixing the amount of restitution to be paid 11 in cash, the court shall allow credit for property 12 returned in kind, for property damages ordered to be 13 repaired by the defendant, and for property ordered to be 14 restored by the defendant; and after granting the credit, 15 the court shall assess the actual out-of-pocket expenses, 16 losses, damages, and injuries suffered by the victim 17 named in the charge and any other victims who may also 18 have suffered out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, 19 and injuries proximately caused by the same criminal 20 conduct of the defendant, and insurance carriers who have 21 indemnified the named victim or other victims for the 22 out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, or injuries, 23 provided that in no event shall restitution be ordered to 24 be paid on account of pain and suffering. If a defendant 25 is placed on supervision for, or convicted of, domestic 26 battery, the defendant shall be required to pay 27 restitution to any domestic violence shelter in which the 28 victim and any other family or household members lived 29 because of the domestic battery. The amount of the 30 restitution shall equal the actual expenses of the 31 domestic violence shelter in providing housing and any 32 other services for the victim and any other family or 33 household members living at the shelter. If a defendant 34 fails to pay restitution in the manner or within the time SB1591 Engrossed -858- LRB9111045EGfg 1 period specified by the court, the court may enter an 2 order directing the sheriff to seize any real or personal 3 property of a defendant to the extent necessary to 4 satisfy the order of restitution and dispose of the 5 property by public sale. All proceeds from such sale in 6 excess of the amount of restitution plus court costs and 7 the costs of the sheriff in conducting the sale shall be 8 paid to the defendant. The defendant convicted of 9 domestic battery, if a person under 18 years of age who 10 is the child of the offender or of the victim was present 11 and witnessed the domestic battery of the victim, is 12 liable to pay restitution for the cost of any counseling 13 required for the child at the discretion of the court. 14 (c) In cases where more than one defendant is 15 accountable for the same criminal conduct that results in 16 out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, or injuries, 17 each defendant shall be ordered to pay restitution in the 18 amount of the total actual out-of-pocket expenses, 19 losses, damages, or injuries to the victim proximately 20 caused by the conduct of all of the defendants who are 21 legally accountable for the offense. 22 (1) In no event shall the victim be entitled 23 to recover restitution in excess of the actual 24 out-of-pocket expenses, losses, damages, or 25 injuries, proximately caused by the conduct of all 26 of the defendants. 27 (2) As between the defendants, the court may 28 apportion the restitution that is payable in 29 proportion to each co-defendant's culpability in the 30 commission of the offense. 31 (3) In the absence of a specific order 32 apportioning the restitution, each defendant shall 33 bear his pro rata share of the restitution. 34 (4) As between the defendants, each defendant SB1591 Engrossed -859- LRB9111045EGfg 1 shall be entitled to a pro rata reduction in the 2 total restitution required to be paid to the victim 3 for amounts of restitution actually paid by 4 co-defendants, and defendants who shall have paid 5 more than their pro rata share shall be entitled to 6 refunds to be computed by the court as additional 7 amounts are paid by co-defendants. 8 (d) In instances where a defendant has more than 9 one criminal charge pending against him in a single case, 10 or more than one case, and the defendant stands convicted 11 of one or more charges, a plea agreement negotiated by 12 the State's Attorney and the defendants may require the 13 defendant to make restitution to victims of charges that 14 have been dismissed or which it is contemplated will be 15 dismissed under the terms of the plea agreement, and 16 under the agreement, the court may impose a sentence of 17 restitution on the charge or charges of which the 18 defendant has been convicted that would require the 19 defendant to make restitution to victims of other 20 offenses as provided in the plea agreement. 21 (e) The court may require the defendant to apply 22 the balance of the cash bond, after payment of court 23 costs, and any fine that may be imposed to the payment of 24 restitution. 25 (f) Taking into consideration the ability of the 26 defendant to pay, the court shall determine whether 27 restitution shall be paid in a single payment or in 28 installments, and shall fix a period of time not in 29 excess of 5 years, not including periods of 30 incarceration, within which payment of restitution is to 31 be paid in full. Complete restitution shall be paid in as 32 short a time period as possible. However, if the court 33 deems it necessary and in the best interest of the 34 victim, the court may extend beyond 5 years the period of SB1591 Engrossed -860- LRB9111045EGfg 1 time within which the payment of restitution is to be 2 paid. If the defendant is ordered to pay restitution and 3 the court orders that restitution is to be paid over a 4 period greater than 6 months, the court shall order that 5 the defendant make monthly payments; the court may waive 6 this requirement of monthly payments only if there is a 7 specific finding of good cause for waiver. 8 (g) The court shall, after determining that the 9 defendant has the ability to pay, require the defendant 10 to pay for the victim's counseling services if: 11 (1) the defendant was convicted of an offense 12 under Sections 11-19.2, 11-20.1, 12-13, 12-14, 13 12-14.1, 12-15 or 12-16 of the Criminal Code of 14 1961, or was charged with such an offense and the 15 charge was reduced to another charge as a result of 16 a plea agreement under subsection (d) of this 17 Section, and 18 (2) the victim was under 18 years of age at 19 the time the offense was committed and requires 20 counseling as a result of the offense. 21 The payments shall be made by the defendant to the 22 clerk of the circuit court and transmitted by the clerk 23 to the appropriate person or agency as directed by the 24 court. The order may require such payments to be made 25 for a period not to exceed 5 years after sentencing, not 26 including periods of incarceration. 27 (h) The judge may enter an order of withholding to 28 collect the amount of restitution owed in accordance with 29 Part 8 of Article XII of the Code of Civil Procedure. 30 (i) A sentence of restitution may be modified or 31 revoked by the court if the offender commits another 32 offense, or the offender fails to make restitution as 33 ordered by the court, but no sentence to make restitution 34 shall be revoked unless the court shall find that the SB1591 Engrossed -861- LRB9111045EGfg 1 offender has had the financial ability to make 2 restitution, and he has wilfully refused to do so. When 3 the offender's ability to pay restitution was established 4 at the time an order of restitution was entered or 5 modified, or when the offender's ability to pay was based 6 on the offender's willingness to make restitution as part 7 of a plea agreement made at the time the order of 8 restitution was entered or modified, there is a 9 rebuttable presumption that the facts and circumstances 10 considered by the court at the hearing at which the order 11 of restitution was entered or modified regarding the 12 offender's ability or willingness to pay restitution have 13 not materially changed. If the court shall find that the 14 defendant has failed to make restitution and that the 15 failure is not wilful, the court may impose an additional 16 period of time within which to make restitution. The 17 length of the additional period shall not be more than 2 18 years. The court shall retain all of the incidents of 19 the original sentence, including the authority to modify 20 or enlarge the conditions, and to revoke or further 21 modify the sentence if the conditions of payment are 22 violated during the additional period. 23 (j) The procedure upon the filing of a Petition to 24 Revoke a sentence to make restitution shall be the same 25 as the procedures set forth in Section 5-6-4 of this Code 26 governing violation, modification, or revocation of 27 Probation, of Conditional Discharge, or of Supervision. 28 (k) Nothing contained in this Section shall 29 preclude the right of any party to proceed in a civil 30 action to recover for any damages incurred due to the 31 criminal misconduct of the defendant. 32 (l) Restitution ordered under this Section shall 33 not be subject to disbursement by the circuit clerk under 34 Section 27.5 of the Clerks of Courts Act. SB1591 Engrossed -862- LRB9111045EGfg 1 (m) A restitution order under this Section is a 2 judgment lien in favor of the victim that: 3 (1) Attaches to the property of the person 4 subject to the order; 5 (2) May be perfected in the same manner as 6 provided in Part 3 of Article 9 of the Uniform 7 Commercial Code; 8 (3) May be enforced to satisfy any payment 9 that is delinquent under the restitution order by 10 the person in whose favor the order is issued or the 11 person's assignee; and 12 (4) Expires in the same manner as a judgment 13 lien created in a civil proceeding. 14 When a restitution order is issued under this 15 Section, the issuing court shall send a certified copy of 16 the order to the clerk of the circuit court in the county 17 where the charge was filed. Upon receiving the order, 18 the clerk shall enter and index the order in the circuit 19 court judgment docket. 20 (n) An order of restitution under this Section does 21 not bar a civil action for: 22 (1) Damages that the court did not require the 23 person to pay to the victim under the restitution 24 order but arise from an injury or property damages 25 that is the basis of restitution ordered by the 26 court; and 27 (2) Other damages suffered by the victim. 28 The restitution order is not discharged by the completion 29 of the sentence imposed for the offense. 30 A restitution order under this Section is not discharged 31 by the liquidation of a person's estate by a receiver. A 32 restitution order under this Section may be enforced in the 33 same manner as judgment liens are enforced under Article XII 34 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

The Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of SB1591 Engrossed -962- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Marriage Act is amended by changing Sections 505, 705, 709, 2 and 713 as follows: 3 (750 ILCS 5/505) (from Ch. 40, par. 505) 4 (Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 91-655) 5 Sec. 505. Child support; contempt; penalties. 6 (a) In a proceeding for dissolution of marriage, legal 7 separation, declaration of invalidity of marriage, a 8 proceeding for child support following dissolution of the 9 marriage by a court which lacked personal jurisdiction over 10 the absent spouse, a proceeding for modification of a 11 previous order for child support under Section 510 of this 12 Act, or any proceeding authorized under Section 501 or 601 of 13 this Act, the court may order either or both parents owing a 14 duty of support to a child of the marriage to pay an amount 15 reasonable and necessary for his support, without regard to 16 marital misconduct. The duty of support owed to a minor 17 child includes the obligation to provide for the reasonable 18 and necessary physical, mental and emotional health needs of 19 the child. 20 (1) The Court shall determine the minimum amount of 21 support by using the following guidelines: 22 Number of Children Percent of Supporting Party's 23 Net Income 24 1 20% 25 2 25% 26 3 32% 27 4 40% 28 5 45% 29 6 or more 50% 30 (2) The above guidelines shall be applied in each 31 case unless the court makes a finding that application of 32 the guidelines would be inappropriate, after considering 33 the best interests of the child in light of evidence SB1591 Engrossed -963- LRB9111045EGfg 1 including but not limited to one or more of the following 2 relevant factors: 3 (a) the financial resources and needs of the 4 child; 5 (b) the financial resources and needs of the 6 custodial parent; 7 (c) the standard of living the child would 8 have enjoyed had the marriage not been dissolved; 9 (d) the physical and emotional condition of 10 the child, and his educational needs; and 11 (e) the financial resources and needs of the 12 non-custodial parent. 13 If the court deviates from the guidelines, the 14 court's finding shall state the amount of support that 15 would have been required under the guidelines, if 16 determinable. The court shall include the reason or 17 reasons for the variance from the guidelines. 18 (3) "Net income" is defined as the total of all 19 income from all sources, minus the following deductions: 20 (a) Federal income tax (properly calculated 21 withholding or estimated payments); 22 (b) State income tax (properly calculated 23 withholding or estimated payments); 24 (c) Social Security (FICA payments); 25 (d) Mandatory retirement contributions 26 required by law or as a condition of employment; 27 (e) Union dues; 28 (f) Dependent and individual 29 health/hospitalization insurance premiums; 30 (g) Prior obligations of support or 31 maintenance actually paid pursuant to a court order; 32 (h) Expenditures for repayment of debts that 33 represent reasonable and necessary expenses for the 34 production of income, medical expenditures necessary SB1591 Engrossed -964- LRB9111045EGfg 1 to preserve life or health, reasonable expenditures 2 for the benefit of the child and the other parent, 3 exclusive of gifts. The court shall reduce net 4 income in determining the minimum amount of support 5 to be ordered only for the period that such payments 6 are due and shall enter an order containing 7 provisions for its self-executing modification upon 8 termination of such payment period. 9 (4) In cases where the court order provides for 10 health/hospitalization insurance coverage pursuant to 11 Section 505.2 of this Act, the premiums for that 12 insurance, or that portion of the premiums for which the 13 supporting party is responsible in the case of insurance 14 provided through an employer's health insurance plan 15 where the employer pays a portion of the premiums, shall 16 be subtracted from net income in determining the minimum 17 amount of support to be ordered. 18 (4.5) In a proceeding for child support following 19 dissolution of the marriage by a court that lacked 20 personal jurisdiction over the absent spouse, and in 21 which the court is requiring payment of support for the 22 period before the date an order for current support is 23 entered, there is a rebuttable presumption that the 24 supporting party's net income for the prior period was 25 the same as his or her net income at the time the order 26 for current support is entered. 27 (5) If the net income cannot be determined because 28 of default or any other reason, the court shall order 29 support in an amount considered reasonable in the 30 particular case. The final order in all cases shall 31 state the support level in dollar amounts. 32 (a-5) In an action to enforce an order for support based 33 on the respondent's failure to make support payments as 34 required by the order, notice of proceedings to hold the SB1591 Engrossed -965- LRB9111045EGfg 1 respondent in contempt for that failure may be served on the 2 respondent by personal service or by regular mail addressed 3 to the respondent's last known address. The respondent's 4 last known address may be determined from records of the 5 clerk of the court, from the Federal Case Registry of Child 6 Support Orders, or by any other reasonable means. 7 (b) Failure of either parent to comply with an order to 8 pay support shall be punishable as in other cases of 9 contempt. In addition to other penalties provided by law the 10 Court may, after finding the parent guilty of contempt, order 11 that the parent be: 12 (1) placed on probation with such conditions of 13 probation as the Court deems advisable; 14 (2) sentenced to periodic imprisonment for a period 15 not to exceed 6 months; provided, however, that the Court 16 may permit the parent to be released for periods of time 17 during the day or night to: 18 (A) work; or 19 (B) conduct a business or other self-employed 20 occupation. 21 The Court may further order any part or all of the 22 earnings of a parent during a sentence of periodic 23 imprisonment paid to the Clerk of the Circuit Court or to the 24 parent having custody or to the guardian having custody of 25 the minor children of the sentenced parent for the support of 26 said minor children until further order of the Court. 27 If there is a unity of interest and ownership sufficient 28 to render no financial separation between a non-custodial 29 parent and another person or persons or business entity, the 30 court may pierce the ownership veil of the person, persons, 31 or business entity to discover assets of the non-custodial 32 parent held in the name of that person, those persons, or 33 that business entity. The following circumstances are 34 sufficient to authorize a court to order discovery of the SB1591 Engrossed -966- LRB9111045EGfg 1 assets of a person, persons, or business entity and to compel 2 the application of any discovered assets toward payment on 3 the judgment for support: 4 (1) the non-custodial parent and the person, 5 persons, or business entity maintain records together. 6 (2) the non-custodial parent and the person, 7 persons, or business entity fail to maintain an arms 8 length relationship between themselves with regard to any 9 assets. 10 (3) the non-custodial parent transfers assets to 11 the person, persons, or business entity with the intent 12 to perpetrate a fraud on the custodial parent. 13 With respect to assets which are real property, no order 14 entered under this paragraph shall affect the rights of bona 15 fide purchasers, mortgagees, judgment creditors, or other 16 lien holders who acquire their interests in the property 17 prior to the time a notice of lis pendens pursuant to the 18 Code of Civil Procedure or a copy of the order is placed of 19 record in the office of the recorder of deeds for the county 20 in which the real property is located. 21 The court may also order in cases where the parent is 90 22 days or more delinquent in payment of support or has been 23 adjudicated in arrears in an amount equal to 90 days 24 obligation or more, that the parent's Illinois driving 25 privileges be suspended until the court determines that the 26 parent is in compliance with the order of support. The court 27 may also order that the parent be issued a family financial 28 responsibility driving permit that would allow limited 29 driving privileges for employment and medical purposes in 30 accordance with Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. 31 The clerk of the circuit court shall certify the order 32 suspending the driving privileges of the parent or granting 33 the issuance of a family financial responsibility driving 34 permit to the Secretary of State on forms prescribed by the SB1591 Engrossed -967- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Secretary. Upon receipt of the authenticated documents, the 2 Secretary of State shall suspend the parent's driving 3 privileges until further order of the court and shall, if 4 ordered by the court, subject to the provisions of Section 5 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, issue a family 6 financial responsibility driving permit to the parent. 7 In addition to the penalties or punishment that may be 8 imposed under this Section, any person whose conduct 9 constitutes a violation of Section 151of the Non-Support 10 Punishmentof Spouse and ChildrenAct may be prosecuted under 11 that ActSection, and a person convicted under that Act 12Sectionmay be sentenced in accordance with that ActSection. 13 The sentence may include but need not be limited to a 14 requirement that the person perform community service under 15 Section 50subsection (b)of that ActSectionor participate 16 in a work alternative program under Section 50subsection (c)17 of that ActSection. A person may not be required to 18 participate in a work alternative program under Section 50 19subsection (c)of that ActSectionif the person is currently 20 participating in a work program pursuant to Section 505.1 of 21 this Act. 22 A support obligation, or any portion of a support 23 obligation, which becomes due and remains unpaid for 30 days 24 or more shall accrue interest at the rate of 9% per annum. 25 (c) A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the 26 amount of past-due child support owed on July 1, 1988 which 27 has accrued under a support order entered by the court. The 28 charge shall be imposed in accordance with the provisions of 29 Section 10-21 of the Illinois Public Aid Code and shall be 30 enforced by the court upon petition. 31 (d) Any new or existing support order entered by the 32 court under this Section shall be deemed to be a series of 33 judgments against the person obligated to pay support 34 thereunder, each such judgment to be in the amount of each SB1591 Engrossed -968- LRB9111045EGfg 1 payment or installment of support and each such judgment to 2 be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment or 3 installment becomes due under the terms of the support order. 4 Each such judgment shall have the full force, effect and 5 attributes of any other judgment of this State, including the 6 ability to be enforced. A lien arises by operation of law 7 against the real and personal property of the noncustodial 8 parent for each installment of overdue support owed by the 9 noncustodial parent. 10 (e) When child support is to be paid through the clerk 11 of the court in a county of 1,000,000 inhabitants or less, 12 the order shall direct the obligor to pay to the clerk, in 13 addition to the child support payments, all fees imposed by 14 the county board under paragraph (3) of subsection (u) of 15 Section 27.1 of the Clerks of Courts Act. Unless paid in 16 cash or pursuant to an order for withholding, the payment of 17 the fee shall be by a separate instrument from the support 18 payment and shall be made to the order of the Clerk. 19 (f) All orders for support, when entered or modified, 20 shall include a provision requiring the obligor to notify the 21 court and, in cases in which a party is receiving child and 22 spouse services under Article X of the Illinois Public Aid 23 Code, the Illinois Department of Public Aid, within 7 days, 24 (i) of the name and address of any new employer of the 25 obligor, (ii) whether the obligor has access to health 26 insurance coverage through the employer or other group 27 coverage and, if so, the policy name and number and the names 28 of persons covered under the policy, and (iii) of any new 29 residential or mailing address or telephone number of the 30 non-custodial parent. In any subsequent action to enforce a 31 support order, upon a sufficient showing that a diligent 32 effort has been made to ascertain the location of the 33 non-custodial parent, service of process or provision of 34 notice necessary in the case may be made at the last known SB1591 Engrossed -969- LRB9111045EGfg 1 address of the non-custodial parent in any manner expressly 2 provided by the Code of Civil Procedure or this Act, which 3 service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process. 4 (g) An order for support shall include a date on which 5 the current support obligation terminates. The termination 6 date shall be no earlier than the date on which the child 7 covered by the order will attain the age of majority or is 8 otherwise emancipated. The order for support shall state that 9 the termination date does not apply to any arrearage that may 10 remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in this subsection shall 11 be construed to prevent the court from modifying the order. 12 (h) An order entered under this Section shall include a 13 provision requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and 14 to the clerk of court within 10 days each time the obligor 15 obtains new employment, and each time the obligor's 16 employment is terminated for any reason. The report shall be 17 in writing and shall, in the case of new employment, include 18 the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report 19 new employment or the termination of current employment, if 20 coupled with nonpayment of support for a period in excess of 21 60 days, is indirect criminal contempt. For any obligor 22 arrested for failure to report new employment bond shall be 23 set in the amount of the child support that should have been 24 paid during the period of unreported employment. An order 25 entered under this Section shall also include a provision 26 requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each 27 other of a change in residence within 5 days of the change 28 except when the court finds that the physical, mental, or 29 emotional health of a party or that of a minor child, or 30 both, would be seriously endangered by disclosure of the 31 party's address. 32 (Source: P.A. 90-18, eff. 7-1-97; 90-476, eff. 1-1-98; 33 90-539, eff. 6-1-98; 90-655, eff. 7-30-98; 90-733, eff. 34 8-11-98; 91-113, eff. 7-15-99; 91-397, eff. 1-1-00; revised SB1591 Engrossed -970- LRB9111045EGfg 1 10-13-99.) 2 (Text of Section after amendment by P.A. 91-655) 3 Sec. 505.

The duty of support owed to a minor 15 child includes the obligation to provide for the reasonable 16 and necessary physical, mental and emotional health needs of 17 the child. 18 (1) The Court shall determine the minimum amount of 19 support by using the following guidelines: 20 Number of Children Percent of Supporting Party's 21 Net Income 22 1 20% 23 2 25% 24 3 32% 25 4 40% 26 5 45% 27 6 or more 50% 28 (2) The above guidelines shall be applied in each 29 case unless the court makes a finding that application of 30 the guidelines would be inappropriate, after considering 31 the best interests of the child in light of evidence 32 including but not limited to one or more of the following 33 relevant factors: 34 (a) the financial resources and needs of the SB1591 Engrossed -971- LRB9111045EGfg 1 child; 2 (b) the financial resources and needs of the 3 custodial parent; 4 (c) the standard of living the child would 5 have enjoyed had the marriage not been dissolved; 6 (d) the physical and emotional condition of 7 the child, and his educational needs; and 8 (e) the financial resources and needs of the 9 non-custodial parent. 10 If the court deviates from the guidelines, the 11 court's finding shall state the amount of support that 12 would have been required under the guidelines, if 13 determinable. The court shall include the reason or 14 reasons for the variance from the guidelines. 15 (3) "Net income" is defined as the total of all 16 income from all sources, minus the following deductions: 17 (a) Federal income tax (properly calculated 18 withholding or estimated payments); 19 (b) State income tax (properly calculated 20 withholding or estimated payments); 21 (c) Social Security (FICA payments); 22 (d) Mandatory retirement contributions 23 required by law or as a condition of employment; 24 (e) Union dues; 25 (f) Dependent and individual 26 health/hospitalization insurance premiums; 27 (g) Prior obligations of support or 28 maintenance actually paid pursuant to a court order; 29 (h) Expenditures for repayment of debts that 30 represent reasonable and necessary expenses for the 31 production of income, medical expenditures necessary 32 to preserve life or health, reasonable expenditures 33 for the benefit of the child and the other parent, 34 exclusive of gifts.

The respondent's 9 last known address may be determined from records of the 10 clerk of the court, from the Federal Case Registry of Child 11 Support Orders, or by any other reasonable means. 12 (b) Failure of either parent to comply with an order to 13 pay support shall be punishable as in other cases of 14 contempt. In addition to other penalties provided by law the 15 Court may, after finding the parent guilty of contempt, order 16 that the parent be: 17 (1) placed on probation with such conditions of 18 probation as the Court deems advisable; 19 (2) sentenced to periodic imprisonment for a period 20 not to exceed 6 months; provided, however, that the Court 21 may permit the parent to be released for periods of time 22 during the day or night to: 23 (A) work; or 24 (B) conduct a business or other self-employed 25 occupation. 26 The Court may further order any part or all of the 27 earnings of a parent during a sentence of periodic 28 imprisonment paid to the Clerk of the Circuit Court or to the 29 parent having custody or to the guardian having custody of 30 the minor children of the sentenced parent for the support of 31 said minor children until further order of the Court. 32 If there is a unity of interest and ownership sufficient 33 to render no financial separation between a non-custodial 34 parent and another person or persons or business entity, the SB1591 Engrossed -974- LRB9111045EGfg 1 court may pierce the ownership veil of the person, persons, 2 or business entity to discover assets of the non-custodial 3 parent held in the name of that person, those persons, or 4 that business entity. The following circumstances are 5 sufficient to authorize a court to order discovery of the 6 assets of a person, persons, or business entity and to compel 7 the application of any discovered assets toward payment on 8 the judgment for support: 9 (1) the non-custodial parent and the person, 10 persons, or business entity maintain records together. 11 (2) the non-custodial parent and the person, 12 persons, or business entity fail to maintain an arms 13 length relationship between themselves with regard to any 14 assets. 15 (3) the non-custodial parent transfers assets to 16 the person, persons, or business entity with the intent 17 to perpetrate a fraud on the custodial parent. 18 With respect to assets which are real property, no order 19 entered under this paragraph shall affect the rights of bona 20 fide purchasers, mortgagees, judgment creditors, or other 21 lien holders who acquire their interests in the property 22 prior to the time a notice of lis pendens pursuant to the 23 Code of Civil Procedure or a copy of the order is placed of 24 record in the office of the recorder of deeds for the county 25 in which the real property is located. 26 The court may also order in cases where the parent is 90 27 days or more delinquent in payment of support or has been 28 adjudicated in arrears in an amount equal to 90 days 29 obligation or more, that the parent's Illinois driving 30 privileges be suspended until the court determines that the 31 parent is in compliance with the order of support. The court 32 may also order that the parent be issued a family financial 33 responsibility driving permit that would allow limited 34 driving privileges for employment and medical purposes in SB1591 Engrossed -975- LRB9111045EGfg 1 accordance with Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. 2 The clerk of the circuit court shall certify the order 3 suspending the driving privileges of the parent or granting 4 the issuance of a family financial responsibility driving 5 permit to the Secretary of State on forms prescribed by the 6 Secretary. Upon receipt of the authenticated documents, the 7 Secretary of State shall suspend the parent's driving 8 privileges until further order of the court and shall, if 9 ordered by the court, subject to the provisions of Section 10 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, issue a family 11 financial responsibility driving permit to the parent. 12 In addition to the penalties or punishment that may be 13 imposed under this Section, any person whose conduct 14 constitutes a violation of Section 151of the Non-Support 15 Punishmentof Spouse and ChildrenAct may be prosecuted under 16 that ActSection, and a person convicted under that Act 17Sectionmay be sentenced in accordance with that ActSection. 18 The sentence may include but need not be limited to a 19 requirement that the person perform community service under 20 Section 50subsection (b)of that ActSectionor participate 21 in a work alternative program under Section 50subsection (c)22 of that ActSection. A person may not be required to 23 participate in a work alternative program under Section 50 24subsection (c)of that ActSectionif the person is currently 25 participating in a work program pursuant to Section 505.1 of 26 this Act. 27 A support obligation, or any portion of a support 28 obligation, which becomes due and remains unpaid for 30 days 29 or more shall accrue interest at the rate of 9% per annum. 30 (c) A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the 31 amount of past-due child support owed on July 1, 1988 which 32 has accrued under a support order entered by the court. The 33 charge shall be imposed in accordance with the provisions of 34 Section 10-21 of the Illinois Public Aid Code and shall be SB1591 Engrossed -976- LRB9111045EGfg 1 enforced by the court upon petition. 2 (d) Any new or existing support order entered by the 3 court under this Section shall be deemed to be a series of 4 judgments against the person obligated to pay support 5 thereunder, each such judgment to be in the amount of each 6 payment or installment of support and each such judgment to 7 be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment or 8 installment becomes due under the terms of the support order. 9 Each such judgment shall have the full force, effect and 10 attributes of any other judgment of this State, including the 11 ability to be enforced. A lien arises by operation of law 12 against the real and personal property of the noncustodial 13 parent for each installment of overdue support owed by the 14 noncustodial parent. 15 (e) When child support is to be paid through the clerk 16 of the court in a county of 1,000,000 inhabitants or less, 17 the order shall direct the obligor to pay to the clerk, in 18 addition to the child support payments, all fees imposed by 19 the county board under paragraph (3) of subsection (u) of 20 Section 27.1 of the Clerks of Courts Act. Unless paid in 21 cash or pursuant to an order for withholding, the payment of 22 the fee shall be by a separate instrument from the support 23 payment and shall be made to the order of the Clerk. 24 (f) All orders for support, when entered or modified, 25 shall include a provision requiring the obligor to notify the 26 court and, in cases in which a party is receiving child and 27 spouse services under Article X of the Illinois Public Aid 28 Code, the Illinois Department of Public Aid, within 7 days, 29 (i) of the name and address of any new employer of the 30 obligor, (ii) whether the obligor has access to health 31 insurance coverage through the employer or other group 32 coverage and, if so, the policy name and number and the names 33 of persons covered under the policy, and (iii) of any new 34 residential or mailing address or telephone number of the SB1591 Engrossed -977- LRB9111045EGfg 1 non-custodial parent. In any subsequent action to enforce a 2 support order, upon a sufficient showing that a diligent 3 effort has been made to ascertain the location of the 4 non-custodial parent, service of process or provision of 5 notice necessary in the case may be made at the last known 6 address of the non-custodial parent in any manner expressly 7 provided by the Code of Civil Procedure or this Act, which 8 service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process. 9 (g) An order for support shall include a date on which 10 the current support obligation terminates. The termination 11 date shall be no earlier than the date on which the child 12 covered by the order will attain the age of majority or is 13 otherwise emancipated. The order for support shall state 14 that the termination date does not apply to any arrearage 15 that may remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in this 16 subsection shall be construed to prevent the court from 17 modifying the order. 18 (h) An order entered under this Section shall include a 19 provision requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and 20 to the clerk of court within 10 days each time the obligor 21 obtains new employment, and each time the obligor's 22 employment is terminated for any reason. The report shall be 23 in writing and shall, in the case of new employment, include 24 the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report 25 new employment or the termination of current employment, if 26 coupled with nonpayment of support for a period in excess of 27 60 days, is indirect criminal contempt. For any obligor 28 arrested for failure to report new employment bond shall be 29 set in the amount of the child support that should have been 30 paid during the period of unreported employment. An order 31 entered under this Section shall also include a provision 32 requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each 33 other of a change in residence within 5 days of the change 34 except when the court finds that the physical, mental, or SB1591 Engrossed -978- LRB9111045EGfg 1 emotional health of a party or that of a minor child, or 2 both, would be seriously endangered by disclosure of the 3 party's address. 4 (Source: P.A. 90-18, eff. 7-1-97; 90-476, eff. 1-1-98; 5 90-539, eff. 6-1-98; 90-655, eff. 7-30-98; 90-733, eff. 6 8-11-98; 91-113, eff. 7-15-99; 91-397, eff. 1-1-00; 91-655, 7 eff. 6-1-00; revised 12-29-99.) 8 (750 ILCS 5/705) (from Ch. 40, par. 705) 9 Sec. 705.

After the 32 effective date of this Act, the court, except as it otherwise 33 orders under subsection (4) of this Section, may direct that SB1591 Engrossed -979- LRB9111045EGfg 1 child support payments be made either to the clerk of the 2 court or to the Illinois Department of Public Aid. 3 (4) In a dissolution of marriage action or supplementary 4 proceedings involving maintenance or child support payments, 5 or both, to persons who are recipients of aid under the 6 Illinois Public Aid Code, the court shall direct that such 7 payments be made to (a) the Illinois Department of Public Aid 8 if the persons are recipients under Articles III, IV, or V of 9 the Code, or (b) the local governmental unit responsible for 10 their support if they are recipients under Articles VI or VII 11 of the Code.

The Illinois Department of Public 17 Aid shall pay the net amount collected to those persons after 18 deducting any costs incurred in making the collection or any 19 collection fee from the amount of any recovery made. The 20 order shall permit the Illinois Department of Public Aid or 21 the local governmental unit, as the case may be, to direct 22 that payments be made directly to the former spouse, the 23 children, or both, or to some person or agency in their 24 behalf, upon removal of the former spouse or children from 25 the public aid rolls or upon termination of services under 26 Article X of the Illinois Public Aid Code; and upon such 27 direction, the Illinois Department or local governmental 28 unit, as the case requires, shall give notice of such action 29 to the court in writing or by electronic transmission. 30 (5) All clerks of the court and the Court Service 31 Division of a County Department of Public Aid and, after the 32 effective date of this Act, all clerks of the court and the 33 Illinois Department of Public Aid, receiving child support 34 payments under subsections (2) and (3) of this Section shall SB1591 Engrossed -980- LRB9111045EGfg 1 disburse the payments to the person or persons entitled 2 thereto under the terms of the order or judgment.

However, any 11 such fees or costs may be assessed by the court against the 12 respondent in the court's order of support or any 13 modification thereof in a proceeding under this Act. 14 (7) For those cases in which child support is payable to 15 the clerk of the circuit court for transmittal to the 16 Illinois Department of Public Aid by order of court or upon 17 notification by the Illinois Department of Public Aid, the 18 clerk shall transmit all such payments, within 4 working days 19 of receipt, to insure that funds are available for immediate 20 distribution by the Department to the person or entity 21 entitled thereto in accordance with standards of the Child 22 Support Enforcement Program established under Title IV-D of 23 the Social Security Act.

The Illinois Department of Public 14 Aid shall pay the net amount collected to those persons after 15 deducting any costs incurred in making the collection or any 16 collection fee from the amount of any recovery made. Upon 17 termination of public aid payments to such a recipient or 18 termination of services under Article X of the Illinois 19 Public Aid Code, the Illinois Department of Public Aid or the 20 appropriate local governmental unit shall notify the clerk in 21 writing or by electronic transmission that all subsequent 22 payments are to be sent directly to the person entitled 23 thereto. 24 Upon notification in writing or by electronic 25 transmission from the Illinois Department of Public Aid to 26 the clerk of the court that a person who is receiving support 27 payments under this Section is receiving services under the 28 Child Support Enforcement Program established by Title IV-D 29 of the Social Security Act, any support payments subsequently 30 received by the clerk of the court shall be transmitted in 31 accordance with the instructions of the Illinois Department 32 of Public Aid until the Department gives notice to the clerk 33 of the court to cease the transmittal. After providing the 34 notification authorized under this paragraph, the Illinois SB1591 Engrossed -985- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Department of Public Aid shall be entitled as a party to 2 notice of any further proceedings in the case. The clerk of 3 the court shall file a copy of the Illinois Department of 4 Public Aid's notification in the court file. The failure of 5 the clerk to file a copy of the notification in the court 6 file shall not, however, affect the Illinois Department of 7 Public Aid's right to receive notice of further proceedings. 8 Payments under this Section to the Illinois Department of 9 Public Aid pursuant to the Child Support Enforcement Program 10 established by Title IV-D of the Social Security Act shall be 11 paid into the Child Support Enforcement Trust Fund. All 12 payments under this Section to the Illinois Department of 13 Human Services shall be deposited in the DHS Recoveries Trust 14 Fund. Disbursements from these funds shall be as provided in 15 the Illinois Public Aid Code.

The clerk 29 may invest in any interest bearing account, or in any 30 securities, monies collected for the benefit of any other 31 payee; however, this does not alter the clerk's obligation to 32 make payments to the payee in a timely manner. Any interest 33 or capital gains accrued shall be for the benefit of the 34 county and shall be paid into the special fund established in SB1591 Engrossed -986- LRB9111045EGfg 1 subsection (b) of Section 711. 2 (g) The clerk shall establish and maintain a payment 3 record of all monies received and disbursed and such record 4 shall constitute prima facie evidence of such payment and 5 non-payment, as the case may be. 6 (h) For those cases in which child support is payable to 7 the clerk of the circuit court for transmittal to the 8 Illinois Department of Public Aid by order of court or upon 9 notification by the Illinois Department of Public Aid, the 10 clerk shall transmit all such payments, within 4 working days 11 of receipt, to insure that funds are available for immediate 12 distribution by the Department to the person or entity 13 entitled thereto in accordance with standards of the Child 14 Support Enforcement Program established under Title IV-D of 15 the Social Security Act.

Attachment of the Body. As used in this 33 Section, "obligor" has the same meaning ascribed to such term SB1591 Engrossed -987- LRB9111045EGfg 1 in the Income Withholding for Support Act. 2 (a) In any proceeding to enforce an order for support, 3 where the obligor has failed to appear in court pursuant to 4 order of court and after due notice thereof, the court may 5 enter an order for the attachment of the body of the obligor. 6 Notices under this Section shall be served upon the obligor 7 by any means authorized under subsection (a-5) of Section 8 505. The attachment order shall fix an amount of escrow 9 which is equal to a minimum of 20% of the total child support 10 arrearage alleged by the obligee in sworn testimony to be due 11 and owing. The attachment order shall direct the Sheriff of 12 any county in Illinois to take the obligor into custody and 13 shall set the number of days following release from custody 14 for a hearing to be held at which the obligor must appear, if 15 he is released under subsection (b)(c)of this Section. 16 (b) If the obligor is taken into custody, the Sheriff 17 shall take the obligor before the court which entered the 18 attachment order. However, the Sheriff may release the 19 person after he or she has deposited the amount of escrow 20 ordered by the court pursuant to local procedures for the 21 posting of bond. The Sheriff shall advise the obligor of the 22 hearing date at which the obligor is required to appear. 23 (c) Any escrow deposited pursuant to this Section shall 24 be transmitted to the Clerk of the Circuit Court for the 25 county in which the order for attachment of the body of the 26 obligor was entered. Any Clerk who receives money deposited 27 into escrow pursuant to this Section shall notify the 28 obligee, public office or legal counsel whose name appears on 29 the attachment order of the court date at which the obligor 30 is required to appear and the amount deposited into escrow. 31 The Clerk shall disburse such money to the obligee only under 32 an order from the court that entered the attachment order 33 pursuant to this Section. 34 (d) Whenever an obligor is taken before the court by the SB1591 Engrossed -988- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Sheriff, or appears in court after the court has ordered the 2 attachment of his body, the court shall: 3 (1) hold a hearing on the complaint or petition 4 that gave rise to the attachment order. For purposes of 5 determining arrearages that are due and owing by the 6 obligor, the court shall accept the previous sworn 7 testimony of the obligee as true and the appearance of 8 the obligee shall not be required. The court shall 9 require sworn testimony of the obligor as to his or her 10 Social Security number, income, employment, bank 11 accounts, property and any other assets.

Unemployed persons owing duty of support. 22 (a) Whenever it is determined in a proceeding to 23 establish or enforce a child support or maintenance 24 obligation that the person owing a duty of support is 25 unemployed, the court may order the person to seek employment 26 and report periodically to the court with a diary, listing or 27 other memorandum of his or her efforts in accordance with 28 such order. Additionally, the court may order the unemployed 29 person to report to the Department of Employment Security for 30 job search services or to make application with the local Job 31JobsTraining Partnership Act provider for participation in SB1591 Engrossed -990- LRB9111045EGfg 1 job search, training, or work programs and where the duty of 2 support is owed to a child receiving support services under 3 Article X of the Illinois Public Aid Code the court may order 4 the unemployed person to report to the Illinois Department of 5 Public Aid for participation in job search, training, or work 6 programs established under Section 9-6 and Article IXA of 7 that Code. 8 (b) Whenever it is determined that a person owes past 9 due support for a child or for a child and the parent with 10 whom the child is living, and the child is receiving 11 assistance under the Illinois Public Aid Code, the court 12 shall order at the request of the Illinois Department of 13 Public Aid: 14 (1) that the person pay the past-due support in 15 accordance with a plan approved by the court; or 16 (2) if the person owing past-due support is 17 unemployed, is subject to such a plan, and is not 18 incapacitated, that the person participate in such job 19 search, training, or work programs established under 20 Section 9-6 and Article IXA of the Illinois Public Aid 21 Code as the court deems appropriate. 22 (Source: P.A. 91-613, eff. 10-1-99; revised 10-1-99.) 23 Section 98. The Illinois Parentage Act of 1984 is 24 amended by changing Sections 6, 15, and 21 as follows: 25 (750 ILCS 45/6) (from Ch. 40, par. 2506) 26 Sec. 6. Establishment of Parent and Child Relationship 27 by Consent of the Parties. 28 (a) A parent and child relationship may be established 29 voluntarily by the signing and witnessing of a voluntary 30 acknowledgment of parentage in accordance with Section 12 of 31 the Vital Records Act or Section 10-17.7 of the Illinois 32 Public Aid Code. The voluntary acknowledgment of parentage SB1591 Engrossed -991- LRB9111045EGfg 1 shall contain the social security numbers of the persons 2 signing the voluntary acknowledgment of parentage; however, 3 failure to include the social security numbers of the persons 4 signing a voluntary acknowledgment of parentage does not 5 invalidate the voluntary acknowledgment of parentage. 6 (1) A parent-child relationship may be established 7 in the event of surrogacy if all of the following 8 conditions are met prior to the birth of the child: 9 (A) The surrogate mother certifies that she is 10 not the biological mother of the child, and that she 11 is carrying the child of the biological father 12 (sperm donor) and of the biological mother (egg 13 donor). 14 (B) The husband, if any, of the surrogate 15 mother certifies that he is not the biological 16 father of the child and that the child is that of 17 the biological father (sperm donor) and of the 18 biological mother (egg donor). 19 (C) The biological mother certifies that she 20 donated the egg from which the child being carried 21 by the surrogate mother was conceived. 22 (D) The biological father certifies that he 23 donated the sperm from which the child being carried 24 by the surrogate mother was conceived. 25 (E) A physician licensed to practice medicine 26 in all its branches in the State of Illinois 27 certifies that the child being carried by the 28 surrogate mother is the biological child of the 29 biological mother (egg donor) and biological father 30 (sperm donor), and that neither the surrogate mother 31 nor the surrogate mother's husband, if any, is a 32 biological parent of the child being carried by the 33 surrogate mother. 34 (F) All certifications shall be in writing and SB1591 Engrossed -992- LRB9111045EGfg 1 witnessed by 2 competent adults who are not the 2 surrogate mother, surrogate mother's husband, if 3 any, biological mother, or biological father. 4 Certifications shall be on forms prescribed by the 5 Illinois Department of Public Health, shall be 6 executed prior to the birth of the child, and shall 7 be placed in the medical records of the surrogate 8 mother prior to the birth of the child. Copies of 9 all certifications shall be delivered to the 10 Illinois Department of Public Health prior to the 11 birth of the child. 12 (2) Unless otherwise determined by order of the 13 Circuit Court, the child shall be presumed to be the 14 child of the surrogate mother and of the surrogate 15 mother's husband, if any, if all requirements of 16 subdivision (a)(1) are not met prior to the birth of the 17 child. This presumption may be rebutted by clear and 18 convincing evidence. The circuit court may order the 19 surrogate mother, surrogate mother's husband, biological 20 mother, biological father, and child to submit to such 21 medical examinations and testing as the court deems 22 appropriate. 23 (b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act, 24 paternity established in accordance with subsection (a) has 25 the full force and effect of a judgment entered under this 26 Act and serves as a basis for seeking a child support order 27 without any further proceedings to establish paternity. 28 (c) A judicial or administrative proceeding to ratify 29 paternity established in accordance with subsection (a) is 30 neither required nor permitted. 31 (d) A signed acknowledgment of paternity entered under 32 this Act may be challenged in court only on the basis of 33 fraud, duress, or material mistake of fact, with the burden 34 of proof upon the challenging party. Pending outcome of the SB1591 Engrossed -993- LRB9111045EGfg 1 challenge to the acknowledgment of paternity, the legal 2 responsibilities of the signatories shall remain in full 3 force and effect, except upon order of the court upon a 4 showing of good cause. 5 (e) Once a parent and child relationship is established 6 in accordance with subsection (a), an order for support may 7 be established pursuant to a petition to establish an order 8 for support by consent filed with the clerk of the circuit 9 court. A copy of the properly completed acknowledgment of 10 parentage form shall be attached to the petition. The 11 petition shall ask that the circuit court enter an order for 12 support. The petition may ask that an order for visitation, 13 custody, or guardianship be entered. The filing and 14 appearance fees provided under the Clerks of Courts Act shall 15 be waived for all cases in which an acknowledgment of 16 parentage form has been properly completed by the parties and 17 in which a petition to establish an order for support by 18 consent has been filed with the clerk of the circuit court. 19 This subsection shall not be construed to prohibit filing any 20 petition for child support, visitation, or custody under this 21 Act, the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, 22 or the Non-Support Punishment Act. This subsection shall 23 also not be construed to prevent the establishment of an 24 administrative support order in cases involving persons 25 receiving child support enforcement services under Article X 26 of the Illinois Public Aid Code. 27 (Source: P.A. 90-18, eff. 7-1-97; 91-308, eff. 7-29-99; 28 91-613, eff. 10-1-99; revised 9-28-99.) 29 (750 ILCS 45/15) (from Ch. 40, par. 2515) 30 Sec. 15. Enforcement of Judgment or Order. 31 (a) If existence of the parent and child relationship is 32 declared, or paternity or duty of support has been 33 established under this Act or under prior law or under the SB1591 Engrossed -994- LRB9111045EGfg 1 law of any other jurisdiction, the judgment rendered 2 thereunder may be enforced in the same or other proceedings 3 by any party or any person or agency that has furnished or 4 may furnish financial assistance or services to the child. 5 The Income Withholding for Support Act and Sections 14 and 16 6 of this Act shall also be applicable with respect to entry, 7 modification and enforcement of any support judgment entered 8 under provisions of the "Paternity Act", approved July 5, 9 1957, as amended, repealed July 1, 1985. 10 (b) Failure to comply with any order of the court shall 11 be punishable as contempt as in other cases of failure to 12 comply under the "Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of 13 Marriage Act", as now or hereafter amended. In addition to 14 other penalties provided by law, the court may, after finding 15 the party guilty of contempt, order that the party be: 16 (1) Placed on probation with such conditions of 17 probation as the court deems advisable; 18 (2) Sentenced to periodic imprisonment for a period 19 not to exceed 6 months. However, the court may permit 20 the party to be released for periods of time during the 21 day or night to work or conduct business or other 22 self-employed occupation. The court may further order 23 any part of all the earnings of a party during a sentence 24 of periodic imprisonment to be paid to the Clerk of the 25 Circuit Court or to the person or parent having custody 26 of the minor child for the support of said child until 27 further order of the court. 28 (2.5) The court may also pierce the ownership veil 29 of a person, persons, or business entity to discover 30 assets of a non-custodial parent held in the name of that 31 person, those persons, or that business entity if there 32 is a unity of interest and ownership sufficient to render 33 no financial separation between the non-custodial parent 34 and that person, those persons, or the business entity. SB1591 Engrossed -995- LRB9111045EGfg 1 The following circumstances are sufficient for a court to 2 order discovery of the assets of a person, persons, or 3 business entity and to compel the application of any 4 discovered assets toward payment on the judgment for 5 support: 6 (A) the non-custodial parent and the person, 7 persons, or business entity maintain records 8 together. 9 (B) the non-custodial parent and the person, 10 persons, or business entity fail to maintain an arms 11 length relationship between themselves with regard 12 to any assets. 13 (C) the non-custodial parent transfers assets 14 to the person, persons, or business entity with the 15 intent to perpetrate a fraud on the custodial 16 parent. 17 With respect to assets which are real property, no 18 order entered under this subdivision (2.5) shall affect 19 the rights of bona fide purchasers, mortgagees, judgment 20 creditors, or other lien holders who acquire their 21 interests in the property prior to the time a notice of 22 lis pendens pursuant to the Code of Civil Procedure or a 23 copy of the order is placed of record in the office of 24 the recorder of deeds for the county in which the real 25 property is located. 26 (3) The court may also order that in cases where 27 the party is 90 days or more delinquent in payment of 28 support or has been adjudicated in arrears in an amount 29 equal to 90 days obligation or more, that the party's 30 Illinois driving privileges be suspended until the court 31 determines that the party is in compliance with the 32 judgement or duty of support. The court may also order 33 that the parent be issued a family financial 34 responsibility driving permit that would allow limited SB1591 Engrossed -996- LRB9111045EGfg 1 driving privileges for employment and medical purposes in 2 accordance with Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle 3 Code. The clerk of the circuit court shall certify the 4 order suspending the driving privileges of the parent or 5 granting the issuance of a family financial 6 responsibility driving permit to the Secretary of State 7 on forms prescribed by the Secretary. Upon receipt of the 8 authenticated documents, the Secretary of State shall 9 suspend the party's driving privileges until further 10 order of the court and shall, if ordered by the court, 11 subject to the provisions of Section 7-702.1 of the 12 Illinois Vehicle Code, issue a family financial 13 responsibility driving permit to the parent. 14 In addition to the penalties or punishment that may be 15 imposed under this Section, any person whose conduct 16 constitutes a violation of Section 151of the Non-Support 17 Punishmentof Spouse and ChildrenAct may be prosecuted under 18 that ActSection, and a person convicted under that Act 19Sectionmay be sentenced in accordance with that ActSection. 20 The sentence may include but need not be limited to a 21 requirement that the person perform community service under 22 Section 50subsection (b)of that ActSectionor participate 23 in a work alternative program under Section 50subsection (c)24 of that ActSection. A person may not be required to 25 participate in a work alternative program under Section 50 26subsection (c)of that ActSectionif the person is currently 27 participating in a work program pursuant to Section 15.1 of 28 this Act. 29 (c) In any post-judgment proceeding to enforce or modify 30 the judgment the parties shall continue to be designated as 31 in the original proceeding. 32 (Source: P.A. 90-476, eff. 1-1-98; 90-673, eff. 1-1-99; 33 90-733, eff. 8-11-98; 91-357, eff. 7-29-99; revised 34 10-13-99.)

For purposes of this subdivision 13 (m-1), the date of entering foster care is the earlier 14 of: (i) the date of a judicial finding at an adjudicatory 15 hearing that the child is an abused, neglected, or 16 dependent minor; or (ii) 60 days after the date on which 17 the child is removed from his or her parent, guardian, or 18 legal custodian. 19 (n) Evidence of intent to forgo his or her parental 20 rights, whether or not the child is a ward of the court, 21 (1) as manifested by his or her failure for a period of 22 12 months: (i) to visit the child, (ii) to communicate 23 with the child or agency, although able to do so and not 24 prevented from doing so by an agency or by court order, 25 or (iii) to maintain contact with or plan for the future 26 of the child, although physically able to do so, or (2) 27 as manifested by the father's failure, where he and the 28 mother of the child were unmarried to each other at the 29 time of the child's birth, (i) to commence legal 30 proceedings to establish his paternity under the Illinois 31 Parentage Act of 1984 or the law of the jurisdiction of 32 the child's birth within 30 days of being informed, 33 pursuant to Section 12a of this Act, that he is the 34 father or the likely father of the child or, after being SB1591 Engrossed -1007- LRB9111045EGfg 1 so informed where the child is not yet born, within 30 2 days of the child's birth, or (ii) to make a good faith 3 effort to pay a reasonable amount of the expenses related 4 to the birth of the child and to provide a reasonable 5 amount for the financial support of the child, the court 6 to consider in its determination all relevant 7 circumstances, including the financial condition of both 8 parents; provided that the ground for termination 9 provided in this subparagraph (n)(2)(ii) shall only be 10 available where the petition is brought by the mother or 11 the husband of the mother. 12 Contact or communication by a parent with his or her 13 child that does not demonstrate affection and concern 14 does not constitute reasonable contact and planning under 15 subdivision (n). In the absence of evidence to the 16 contrary, the ability to visit, communicate, maintain 17 contact, pay expenses and plan for the future shall be 18 presumed. The subjective intent of the parent, whether 19 expressed or otherwise, unsupported by evidence of the 20 foregoing parental acts manifesting that intent, shall 21 not preclude a determination that the parent has intended 22 to forgo his or her parental rights. In making this 23 determination, the court may consider but shall not 24 require a showing of diligent efforts by an authorized 25 agency to encourage the parent to perform the acts 26 specified in subdivision (n). 27 It shall be an affirmative defense to any allegation 28 under paragraph (2) of this subsection that the father's 29 failure was due to circumstances beyond his control or to 30 impediments created by the mother or any other person 31 having legal custody. Proof of that fact need only be by 32 a preponderance of the evidence. 33 (o) Repeated or continuous failure by the parents, 34 although physically and financially able, to provide the SB1591 Engrossed -1008- LRB9111045EGfg 1 child with adequate food, clothing, or shelter. 2 (p) Inability to discharge parental 3 responsibilities supported by competent evidence from a 4 psychiatrist, licensed clinical social worker, or 5 clinical psychologist of mental impairment, mental 6 illness or mental retardation as defined in Section 1-116 7 of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code, 8 or developmental disability as defined in Section 1-106 9 of that Code, and there is sufficient justification to 10 believe that the inability to discharge parental 11 responsibilities shall extend beyond a reasonable time 12 period. However, this subdivision (p) shall not be 13 construed so as to permit a licensed clinical social 14 worker to conduct any medical diagnosis to determine 15 mental illness or mental impairment. 16 (q) The parent has been criminally convicted of 17 aggravated battery, heinous battery, or attempted murder 18 of any child. 19 (r) The child is in the temporary custody or 20 guardianship of the Department of Children and Family 21 Services, the parent is incarcerated as a result of 22 criminal conviction at the time the petition or motion 23 for termination of parental rights is filed, prior to 24 incarceration the parent had little or no contact with 25 the child or provided little or no support for the child, 26 and the parent's incarceration will prevent the parent 27 from discharging his or her parental responsibilities for 28 the child for a period in excess of 2 years after the 29 filing of the petition or motion for termination of 30 parental rights. 31 (s) The child is in the temporary custody or 32 guardianship of the Department of Children and Family 33 Services, the parent is incarcerated at the time the 34 petition or motion for termination of parental rights is SB1591 Engrossed -1009- LRB9111045EGfg 1 filed, the parent has been repeatedly incarcerated as a 2 result of criminal convictions, and the parent's repeated 3 incarceration has prevented the parent from discharging 4 his or her parental responsibilities for the child. 5 (t) A finding that at birth the child's blood, 6 urine, or meconium contained any amount of a controlled 7 substance as defined in subsection (f) of Section 102 of 8 the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or a metabolite 9 of a controlled substance, with the exception of 10 controlled substances or metabolites of such substances, 11 the presence of which in the newborn infant was the 12 result of medical treatment administered to the mother or 13 the newborn infant, and that the biological mother of 14 this child is the biological mother of at least one other 15 child who was adjudicated a neglected minor under 16 subsection (c) of Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act 17 of 1987, after which the biological mother had the 18 opportunity to enroll in and participate in a clinically 19 appropriate substance abuse counseling, treatment, and 20 rehabilitation program. 21 E.

Each notice of proposed action shall 5 include a detailed statement setting forth the 6 specific grounds for the proposed action and shall 7 state that the dealer has only 30 days from receipt 8 of the notice to file with the Motor Vehicle Review 9 Board a written protest against the proposed action. 10 (C) Within 30 days from receipt of the notice 11 under subparagraphs (A) and (B), the franchisee may 12 file with the Board a written protest against the 13 proposed action. 14 When the protest has been timely filed, the 15 Board shall enter an order, fixing a date (within 60 16 days of the date of the order), time, and place of a 17 hearing on the protest required under Sections 12 18 and 29 of this Act, and send by certified mail, 19 return receipt requested, a copy of the order to the 20 manufacturer that filed the notice of intention of 21 the proposed action and to the protesting dealer or 22 franchisee. 23 The manufacturer shall have the burden of proof 24 to establish that good cause exists to cancel or 25 terminate, or fail to extend or renew the franchise 26 or selling agreement of a motor vehicle dealer or 27 franchisee, and to change substantially or modify 28 the sales and service obligations or capital 29 requirements of a motor vehicle dealer as a 30 condition to extending or renewing the existing 31 franchise or selling agreement. The determination 32 whether good cause exists to cancel, terminate, or 33 refuse to renew or extend the franchise or selling 34 agreement, or to change or modify the obligations of SB1591 Engrossed -1037- LRB9111045EGfg 1 the dealer as a condition to offer renewal, 2 replacement, or succession shall be made by the 3 Board under subsection (d) of Section 12 of this 4 Act. 5 (D) Notwithstanding the terms, conditions, or 6 provisions of a franchise or selling agreement, the 7 following shall not constitute good cause for 8 cancelling or terminating or failing to extend or 9 renew the franchise or selling agreement: (i) the 10 change of ownership or executive management of the 11 franchisee's dealership; or (ii) the fact that the 12 franchisee or owner of an interest in the franchise 13 owns, has an investment in, participates in the 14 management of, or holds a license for the sale of 15 the same or any other line make of new motor 16 vehicles. 17 Good cause shall exist to cancel, terminate or 18 fail to offer a renewal or replacement franchise or 19 selling agreement to all franchisees of a line make 20 if the manufacturer permanently discontinues the 21 manufacture or assembly of motor vehicles of such 22 line make. 23 (E) The manufacturer may not cancel or 24 terminate, or fail to extend or renew a franchise or 25 selling agreement or change or modify the 26 obligations of the franchisee as a condition to 27 offering a renewal, replacement, or succeeding 28 franchise or selling agreement before the hearing 29 process is concluded as prescribed by this Act, and 30 thereafter, if the Board determines that the 31 manufacturer has failed to meet its burden of proof 32 and that good cause does not exist to allow the 33 proposed action; or 34 (7) notwithstanding the terms of any franchise SB1591 Engrossed -1038- LRB9111045EGfg 1 agreement, to fail to indemnify and hold harmless its 2 franchised dealers against any judgment or settlement for 3 damages, including, but not limited to, court costs, 4 expert witness fees, reasonable attorneys' fees of the 5 new motor vehicle dealer, and other expenses incurred in 6 the litigation, so long as such fees and costs are 7 reasonable, arising out of complaints, claims or lawsuits 8 including, but not limited to, strict liability, 9 negligence, misrepresentation, warranty (express or 10 implied), or recision of the sale as defined in Section 11 2-608 of the Uniform Commercial Code, to the extent that 12 the judgment or settlement relates to the alleged 13 defective or negligent manufacture, assembly or design of 14 new motor vehicles, parts or accessories or other 15 functions by the manufacturer, beyond the control of the 16 dealer; provided that, in order to provide an adequate 17 defense, the manufacturer receives notice of the filing 18 of a complaint, claim, or lawsuit within 60 days after 19 the filing. 20 (e) It shall be deemed a violation for a manufacturer, a 21 distributor, a wholesaler, a distributor branch or division 22 or officer, agent or other representative thereof: 23 (1) to resort to or use any false or misleading 24 advertisement in connection with his business as such 25 manufacturer, distributor, wholesaler, distributor branch 26 or division or officer, agent or other representative 27 thereof; 28 (2) to offer to sell or lease, or to sell or lease, 29 any new motor vehicle to any motor vehicle dealer at a 30 lower actual price therefor than the actual price offered 31 to any other motor vehicle dealer for the same model 32 vehicle similarly equipped or to utilize any device 33 including, but not limited to, sales promotion plans or 34 programs which result in such lesser actual price or SB1591 Engrossed -1039- LRB9111045EGfg 1 fail to make available to any motor vehicle dealer any 2 preferential pricing, incentive, rebate, finance rate, or 3 low interest loan program offered to competing motor 4 vehicle dealers in other contiguous states. However, the 5 provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to sales to 6 a motor vehicle dealer for resale to any unit of the 7 United States Government, the State or any of its 8 political subdivisions; 9 (3) to offer to sell or lease, or to sell or lease, 10 any new motor vehicle to any person, except a wholesaler, 11 distributor or manufacturer's employees at a lower actual 12 price therefor than the actual price offered and charged 13 to a motor vehicle dealer for the same model vehicle 14 similarly equipped or to utilize any device which results 15 in such lesser actual price. However, the provisions of 16 this paragraph shall not apply to sales to a motor 17 vehicle dealer for resale to any unit of the United 18 States Government, the State or any of its political 19 subdivisions; 20 (4) to prevent or attempt to prevent by contract or 21 otherwise any motor vehicle dealer or franchisee from 22 changing the executive management control of the motor 23 vehicle dealer or franchisee unless the franchiser, 24 having the burden of proof, proves that such change of 25 executive management will result in executive management 26 control by a person or persons who are not of good moral 27 character or who do not meet the franchiser's existing 28 and, with consideration given to the volume of sales and 29 service of the dealership, uniformly applied minimum 30 business experience standards in the market area. However 31 where the manufacturer rejects a proposed change in 32 executive management control, the manufacturer shall give 33 written notice of his reasons to the dealer within 60 34 days of notice to the manufacturer by the dealer of the SB1591 Engrossed -1040- LRB9111045EGfg 1 proposed change. If the manufacturer does not send a 2 letter to the franchisee by certified mail, return 3 receipt requested, within 60 days from receipt by the 4 manufacturer of the proposed change, then the change of 5 the executive management control of the franchisee shall 6 be deemed accepted as proposed by the franchisee, and the 7 manufacturer shall give immediate effect to such change; 8 (5) to prevent or attempt to prevent by contract or 9 otherwise any motor vehicle dealer from establishing or 10 changing the capital structure of his dealership or the 11 means by or through which he finances the operation 12 thereof; provided the dealer meets any reasonable capital 13 standards agreed to between the dealer and the 14 manufacturer, distributor or wholesaler, who may require 15 that the sources, method and manner by which the dealer 16 finances or intends to finance its operation, equipment 17 or facilities be fully disclosed; 18 (6) to refuse to give effect to or prevent or 19 attempt to prevent by contract or otherwise any motor 20 vehicle dealer or any officer, partner or stockholder of 21 any motor vehicle dealer from selling or transferring any 22 part of the interest of any of them to any other person 23 or persons or party or parties unless such sale or 24 transfer is to a transferee who would not otherwise 25 qualify for a new motor vehicle dealers license under 26 "The Illinois Vehicle Code" or unless the franchiser, 27 having the burden of proof, proves that such sale or 28 transfer is to a person or party who is not of good moral 29 character or does not meet the franchiser's existing and 30 reasonable capital standards and, with consideration 31 given to the volume of sales and service of the 32 dealership, uniformly applied minimum business experience 33 standards in the market area. However, nothing herein 34 shall be construed to prevent a franchiser from SB1591 Engrossed -1041- LRB9111045EGfg 1 implementing affirmative action programs providing 2 business opportunities for minorities or from complying 3 with applicable federal, State or local law: 4 (A) If the manufacturer intends to refuse to 5 approve the sale or transfer of all or a part of the 6 interest, then it shall, within 60 days from receipt 7 of the completed application forms generally 8 utilized by a manufacturer to conduct its review and 9 a copy of all agreements regarding the proposed 10 transfer, send a letter by certified mail, return 11 receipt requested, advising the franchisee of any 12 refusal to approve the sale or transfer of all or 13 part of the interest and shall state that the dealer 14 only has 30 days from the receipt of the notice to 15 file with the Motor Vehicle Review Board a written 16 protest against the proposed action. The notice 17 shall set forth specific criteria used to evaluate 18 the prospective transferee and the grounds for 19 refusing to approve the sale or transfer to that 20 transferee. Within 30 days from the franchisee's 21 receipt of the manufacturer's notice, the franchisee 22 may file with the Board a written protest against 23 the proposed action. 24 When a protest has been timely filed, the Board 25 shall enter an order, fixing the date (within 60 26 days of the date of such order), time, and place of 27 a hearing on the protest, required under Sections 12 28 and 29 of this Act, and send by certified mail, 29 return receipt requested, a copy of the order to the 30 manufacturer that filed notice of intention of the 31 proposed action and to the protesting franchisee. 32 The manufacturer shall have the burden of proof 33 to establish that good cause exists to refuse to 34 approve the sale or transfer to the transferee. The SB1591 Engrossed -1042- LRB9111045EGfg 1 determination whether good cause exists to refuse to 2 approve the sale or transfer shall be made by the 3 Board under subdivisions (6)(B). The manufacturer 4 shall not refuse to approve the sale or transfer by 5 a dealer or an officer, partner, or stockholder of a 6 franchise or any part of the interest to any person 7 or persons before the hearing process is concluded 8 as prescribed by this Act, and thereafter if the 9 Board determines that the manufacturer has failed to 10 meet its burden of proof and that good cause does 11 not exist to refuse to approve the sale or transfer 12 to the transferee. 13 (B) Good cause to refuse to approve such sale 14 or transfer under this Section is established when 15 such sale or transfer is to a transferee who would 16 not otherwise qualify for a new motor vehicle 17 dealers license under "The Illinois Vehicle Code" or 18 such sale or transfer is to a person or party who is 19 not of good moral character or does not meet the 20 franchiser's existing and reasonable capital 21 standards and, with consideration given to the 22 volume of sales and service of the dealership, 23 uniformly applied minimum business experience 24 standards in the market area. 25 (7) to obtain money, goods, services, anything of 26 value, or any other benefit from any other person with 27 whom the motor vehicle dealer does business, on account 28 of or in relation to the transactions between the dealer 29 and the other person as compensation, except for services 30 actually rendered, unless such benefit is promptly 31 accounted for and transmitted to the motor vehicle 32 dealer; 33 (8) to grant an additional franchise in the 34 relevant market area of an existing franchise of the same SB1591 Engrossed -1043- LRB9111045EGfg 1 line make or to relocate an existing motor vehicle 2 dealership within or into a relevant market area of an 3 existing franchise of the same line make. However, if the 4 manufacturer wishes to grant such an additional franchise 5 to an independent person in a bona fide relationship in 6 which such person is prepared to make a significant 7 investment subject to loss in such a dealership, or if 8 the manufacturer wishes to relocate an existing motor 9 vehicle dealership, then the manufacturer shall send a 10 letter by certified mail, return receipt requested, to 11 each existing dealer or dealers of the same line make 12 whose relevant market area includes the proposed location 13 of the additional or relocated franchise at least 60 days 14 before the manufacturer grants an additional franchise or 15 relocates an existing franchise of the same line make 16 within or into the relevant market area of an existing 17 franchisee of the same line make. Each notice shall set 18 forth the specific grounds for the proposed grant of an 19 additional or relocation of an existing franchise. 20 Unless the parties agree upon the grant or establishment 21 of the additional or relocated franchise within 30 days 22 from the date the notice was received by the existing 23 franchisee of the same line make or any person entitled 24 to receive such notice, the franchisee or other person 25 may file with the Board a written protest against the 26 grant or establishment of the proposed additional or 27 relocated franchise and shall state that the dealer only 28 has 30 days from the receipt of the notice to file with 29 the Motor Vehicle Review Board a written protest against 30 the proposed action. 31 When a protest has been timely filed, the Board 32 shall enter an order fixing a date (within 60 days of the 33 date of the order), time, and place of a hearing on the 34 protest, required under Sections 12 and 29 of this Act, SB1591 Engrossed -1044- LRB9111045EGfg 1 and send by certified or registered mail, return receipt 2 requested, a copy of the order to the manufacturer that 3 filed the notice of intention to grant or establish the 4 proposed additional or relocated franchise and to the 5 protesting dealer or dealers of the same line make whose 6 relevant market area includes the proposed location of 7 the additional or relocated franchise. 8 When more than one protest is filed against the 9 grant or establishment of the additional or relocated 10 franchise of the same line make, the Board may 11 consolidate the hearings to expedite disposition of the 12 matter. The manufacturer shall have the burden of proof 13 to establish that good cause exists to allow the grant or 14 establishment of the additional or relocated franchise. 15 The manufacturer may not grant or establish the 16 additional franchise or relocate the existing franchise 17 before the hearing process is concluded as prescribed by 18 this Act, and thereafter if the Board determines that the 19 manufacturer has failed to meet its burden of proof and 20 that good cause does not exist to allow the grant or 21 establishment of the additional franchise or relocation 22 of the existing franchise. 23 The determination whether good cause exists for 24 allowing the grant or establishment of an additional 25 franchise or relocated existing franchise, shall be made 26 by the Board under subsection (c) of Section 12 of this 27 Act. If the manufacturer seeks to enter into a contract, 28 agreement or other arrangement with any person, 29 establishing any additional motor vehicle dealership or 30 other facility, limited to the sale of factory repurchase 31 vehicles or late model vehicles, then the manufacturer 32 shall follow the notice procedures set forth in this 33 Section and the determination whether good cause exists 34 for allowing the proposed agreement shall be made by the SB1591 Engrossed -1045- LRB9111045EGfg 1 Board under subsection (c) of Section 12, with the 2 manufacturer having the burden of proof. 3 A. (Blank). 4 B. For the purposes of this Section, 5 appointment of a successor motor vehicle dealer at 6 the same location as its predecessor, or within 2 7 miles of such location, or the relocation of an 8 existing dealer or franchise within 2 miles of the 9 relocating dealer's or franchisee's existing 10 location, shall not be construed as a grant, 11 establishment or the entering into of an additional 12 franchise or selling agreement, or a relocation of 13 an existing franchise. The reopening of a motor 14 vehicle dealership that has not been in operation 15 for 18 months or more shall be deemed the grant of 16 an additional franchise or selling agreement. 17 C. This Section does not apply to the 18 relocation of an existing dealership or franchise in 19 a county having a population of more than 300,000 20 persons when the new location is within the dealer's 21 current relevant market area, provided the new 22 location is more than 7 miles from the nearest 23 dealer of the same line make or is further away from 24 the nearest dealer of the same line make. This 25 Section does not apply to the relocation of an 26 existing dealership or franchise in a county having 27 a population of less than 300,000 persons when the 28 new location is within the dealer's current relevant 29 market area, provided the new location is more than 30 12 miles from the nearest dealer of the same line 31 make or is further away from the nearest dealer of 32 the same line make. 33 D. Nothing in this Section shall be construed 34 to prevent a franchiser from implementing SB1591 Engrossed -1046- LRB9111045EGfg 1 affirmative action programs providing business 2 opportunities for minorities or from complying with 3 applicable federal, State or local law; 4 (9) to require a motor vehicle dealer to assent to 5 a release, assignment, novation, waiver or estoppel which 6 would relieve any person from liability imposed by this 7 Act; 8 (10) to prevent or refuse to give effect to the 9 succession to the ownership or management control of a 10 dealership by any legatee under the will of a dealer or 11 to an heir under the laws of descent and distribution of 12 this State unless the franchisee has designated a 13 successor to the ownership or management control under 14 the succession provisions of the franchise. Unless the 15 franchiser, having the burden of proof, proves that the 16 successor is a person who is not of good moral character 17 or does not meet the franchiser's existing and reasonable 18 capital standards and, with consideration given to the 19 volume of sales and service of the dealership, uniformly 20 applied minimum business experience standards in the 21 market area, any designated successor of a dealer or 22 franchisee may succeed to the ownership or management 23 control of a dealership under the existing franchise if: 24 (i) The designated successor gives the 25 franchiser written notice by certified mail, 26 return receipt requested, of his or her 27 intention to succeed to the ownership of the 28 dealer within 60 days of the dealer's death or 29 incapacity; and 30 (ii) The designated successor agrees to 31 be bound by all the terms and conditions of the 32 existing franchise. 33 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the 34 motor vehicle dealer or franchisee and manufacturer have SB1591 Engrossed -1047- LRB9111045EGfg 1 duly executed an agreement concerning succession rights 2 prior to the dealer's death or incapacitation, the 3 agreement shall be observed. 4 (A) If the franchiser intends to refuse to 5 honor the successor to the ownership of a deceased 6 or incapacitated dealer or franchisee under an 7 existing franchise agreement, the franchiser shall 8 send a letter by certified mail, return receipt 9 requested, to the designated successor within 60 10 days from receipt of a proposal advising of its 11 intent to refuse to honor the succession and to 12 discontinue the existing franchise agreement and 13 shall state that the designated successor only has 14 30 days from the receipt of the notice to file with 15 the Motor Vehicle Review Board a written protest 16 against the proposed action. The notice shall set 17 forth the specific grounds for the refusal to honor 18 the succession and discontinue the existing 19 franchise agreement. 20 If notice of refusal is not timely served upon 21 the designated successor, the franchise agreement 22 shall continue in effect subject to termination only 23 as otherwise permitted by paragraph (6) of 24 subsection (d) of Section 4 of this Act. 25 Within 30 days from the date the notice was 26 received by the designated successor or any other 27 person entitled to notice, the designee or other 28 person may file with the Board a written protest 29 against the proposed action. 30 When a protest has been timely filed, the Board 31 shall enter an order, fixing a date (within 60 days 32 of the date of the order), time, and place of a 33 hearing on the protest, required under Sections 12 34 and 29 of this Act, and send by certified mail, SB1591 Engrossed -1048- LRB9111045EGfg 1 return receipt requested, a copy of the order to the 2 franchiser that filed the notice of intention of the 3 proposed action and to the protesting designee or 4 such other person. 5 The manufacturer shall have the burden of proof 6 to establish that good cause exists to refuse to 7 honor the succession and discontinue the existing 8 franchise agreement. The determination whether good 9 cause exists to refuse to honor the succession shall 10 be made by the Board under subdivision (B) of this 11 paragraph (10).
