Tax increment financing districts. 8 Extensions allocable to a special tax allocation fund and the 9 amount of taxes abated under Sections 18-165 and 18-170 are 10 not to be included in the aggregate extension base when 11 computing the limiting rate. 12 (Source: P.A. 87-17; 88-455.) 13 (35 ILCS 200/18-248) 14 Sec. 18-248. Adjustments to the limiting rate. 15 (a) Merging and consolidating taxing districts. For the 16 purposespurposeof this Law, when 2 or more taxing districts 17 merge or consolidate, the sum of the last preceding aggregate 18 extension for each taxing district shall be combined for the 19 resulting merged or consolidated taxing district. When a 20 service performed by one taxing district is transferred to 21 another taxing district, that part of the aggregate extension 22 base for that purpose shall be transferred and added to the 23 aggregate extension base of the transferee taxing district 24 for purposes of this Law and shall be deducted from the 25 aggregate extension base of the transferor taxing district. 26 (b) Annexed or disconnected property. If property is 27 annexed into the taxing district or is disconnected from a 28 taxing district during the current levy year, the calculation 29 of the limiting rate under Section 18-246 is not affected. 30 The rates as limited under this Law are applied to all -2- LRB9206723REmg 1 property in the district for the 1994 levy year, excluding 2 property that was annexed after the adoption of the levy for 3 the current levy year. 4 (c) Rate increase or decrease factor. When a new rate 5 or a rate increase or decrease that is first effective for 6 the 1994 levy year has been approved by referendum, the 7 aggregate extension base, as adjusted in subsection (a), 8 shall be multiplied by a rate increase or decrease factor. 9 The numerator of the rate increase or decrease factor is the 10 total combined rate for the funds that made up the aggregate 11 extension for the taxing district for the 1993 levy year plus 12 the rate increase approved or minus the rate decrease 13 approved. The denominator of the rate increase or decrease 14 factor is the total combined rate for the funds that made up 15 the aggregate extension for the 1993 levy year. For those 16 taxing districts for which a new rate or a rate increase has 17 been approved by referendum held after December 31, 1989, and 18 that did not increase their rate to the new maximum rate for 19 that fund, the rate increase factor for the 1994 levy year 20 shall be adjusted by a factor the numerator of which is the 21 portion of the new or increased rate for which taxes were not 22 extended plus the aggregate rate in effect for the levy year 23 prior to the levy year in which the referendum was passed and 24 the denominator of which is the aggregate rate in effect for 25 the levy year prior to the levy year in which the referendum 26 was passed. 27 (d) Tax increment financing districts. Extensions 28 allocable to a special tax allocation fund and the amount of 29 taxes abated under Sections 18-165 and 18-170 are not 30 included in the aggregate extension base when computing the 31 limiting rate. 32 (Source: P.A. 89-1, eff. 2-12-95.)
