 1        AN ACT concerning revenue sharing.

 2        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section 5.  The State Revenue Sharing Act is  amended  by
 5    adding Section 13.2 as follows:

 6        (30 ILCS 115/13.2 new)
 7        Sec.  13.2.  Regional  property  tax-base revenue sharing
 8    study. The Department of Revenue  shall  conduct  a  regional
 9    property   tax-base   revenue  sharing  study  that  includes
10    counties of more than  3  million  inhabitants  and  counties
11    adjoining  counties  of  more than 3 million inhabitants. The
12    study shall include, but not be limited to:
13        (1)  A report of  the  annual  growth  in  the  equalized
14    assessed  valuation  of  commercial  and  industrial property
15    within each municipality in the counties during the  last  10
16    available years.
17        (2)  An  analysis  of  what  the  year-to-year  growth in
18    equalized assessed valuation of each of the municipalities in
19    paragraph (1) would have  produced  for  a  regional  sharing
20    tax-base  assuming  each  municipality contributed 40% of the
21    equalized assessed valuation growth  in  its  commercial  and
22    industrial properties each year.
23        (3)  Applying   a   weighted   area  wide  tax  rate  and
24    redistributing the taxes based on a per capita real  property
25    valuation  and comparing that to what the growth in equalized
26    assessed  valuation  actually  produced  in  taxes  for  each
27    municipality using its own tax rate and without  contributing
28    40%  of  its  new  equalized assessed valuation to a regional
29    sharing tax-base.
30        The  Department  of  Revenue  shall  consult   with   all
31    interested  parties  and  review  current studies on regional
32    tax-base revenue sharing  prior  to  making  its  assumptions
 
                            -2-                LRB9207584SMdv
 1    regarding  the  area  wide  tax  rate  and the redistribution
 2    formula.  The study shall be completed no later than December
 3    1, 2001.

 4        Section 99.  Effective date.  This Act takes effect  upon
 5    becoming law.
