7 Revisory Act.
8 (b) This Act is not intended to make any substantive
9 change in the law. It reconciles conflicts that have arisen
10 from multiple amendments and enactments and makes technical
11 corrections and revisions in the law.
12 This Act revises and, where appropriate, renumbers
13 certain Sections that have been added or amended by more than
14 one Public Act. In certain cases in which a repealed Act or
15 Section has been replaced with a successor law, this Act
16 incorporates amendments to the repealed Act or Section into
17 the successor law. This Act also corrects errors, revises
18 cross-references, and deletes obsolete text.
19 (c) In this Act, the reference at the end of each
20 amended Section indicates the sources in the Session Laws of
21 Illinois that were used in the preparation of the text of
22 that Section. The text of the Section included in this Act
23 is intended to reconcile the different versions of the
24 Section found in the Public Acts included in the list of
25 sources, but may not include other versions of the Section to
26 be found in Public Acts not included in the list of sources.
27 The list of sources is not a part of the text of the Section.
28 (d) Public Acts 91-937 through 92-520 were considered in
29 the preparation of the combining revisories included in this
30 Act. Many of those combining revisories contain no striking
31 or underscoring because no additional changes are being made
32 in the material that is being combined.

13 retaliatory tax (excluding any insurer whose premiums from
14 reinsurance assumed are 50% or more of its total insurance
15 premiums as determined under paragraph (2) of subsection (b)
16 of Section 304, except that for purposes of this
17 determination premiums from reinsurance do not include
18 premiums from inter-affiliate reinsurance arrangements),
19 beginning with taxable years ending on or after December 31,
20 1999, the sum of the rates of tax imposed by subsections (b)

34 (1) For the purposes of subsection (d-1), in no
SB1854 Enrolled -71- LRB9215370EGfg
1 event shall the sum of the rates of tax imposed by
2 subsections (b) and (d) be reduced below the rate at
3 which the sum of:
4 (A) the total amount of tax imposed on such
5 foreign insurer under this Act for a taxable year,
6 net of all credits allowed under this Act, plus
7 (B) the privilege tax imposed by Section 409
8 of the Illinois Insurance Code, the fire insurance
9 company tax imposed by Section 12 of the Fire
10 Investigation Act, and the fire department taxes

16 in no event increase the rates imposed under subsections
17 (b) and (d).
18 (2) Any reduction in the rates of tax imposed by
19 this subsection shall be applied first against the rates
20 imposed by subsection (b) and only after the tax imposed
21 by subsection (a) net of all credits allowed under this
22 Section other than the credit allowed under subsection
23 (i) has been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed
24 by subsection (d).
25 This subsection (d-1) is exempt from the provisions of

27 (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a
28 credit against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
29 Tax for investment in qualified property.
30 (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit equal to
31 .5% of the basis of qualified property placed in service
32 during the taxable year, provided such property is placed
33 in service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be
34 allowed an additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of
SB1854 Enrolled -72- LRB9215370EGfg
1 qualified property placed in service during the taxable
2 year, provided such property is placed in service on or
3 after July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment
4 within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the
5 preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's employment
6 records filed with the Illinois Department of Employment
7 Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be
8 deemed to have met the 1% growth in base employment for
9 the first year in which they file employment records with
10 the Illinois Department of Employment Security. The
11 provisions added to this Section by Public Act 85-1200
12 (and restored by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as
13 declaratory of existing law and not as a new enactment.
14 If, in any year, the increase in base employment within
15 Illinois over the preceding year is less than 1%, the
16 additional credit shall be limited to that percentage
17 times a fraction, the numerator of which is .5% and the
18 denominator of which is 1%, but shall not exceed .5%.
19 The investment credit shall not be allowed to the extent
20 that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability in any tax
21 year below zero, nor may any credit for qualified
22 property be allowed for any year other than the year in

26 the tax year in which the property is placed in service,
27 or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability
28 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability
29 or the liability as later amended, such excess may be
30 carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5
31 taxable years following the excess credit years if the
32 taxpayer (i) makes investments which cause the creation
33 of a minimum of 2,000 full-time equivalent jobs in

9 which the property is placed in service, or, if the
10 amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability for that
11 year, whether it exceeds the original liability or the
12 liability as later amended, such excess may be carried
13 forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable
14 years following the excess credit years. The credit shall
15 be applied to the earliest year for which there is a
16 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year
17 that is available to offset a liability, earlier credit

20 which:
21 (A) is tangible, whether new or used,

24 (5) If the basis of the property for federal income
25 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
26 placed in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount
27 of such increase shall be deemed property placed in
28 service on the date of such increase in basis.
29 (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the
30 same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue

6 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for
7 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such
8 property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such
9 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously

14 of such reduction.
15 (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by
16 law, the basis of qualified property shall not include
17 costs incurred after December 31, 2003, except for costs

23 under this subsection (e) for the taxable year. A
24 partner may use the credit allocated to him or her under

27 under this subsection (f) to be determined in accordance
28 with the determination of income and distributive share
29 of income under Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of
30 the Internal Revenue Code. The credit shall be .5% of
31 the basis for such property. The credit shall be
32 available only in the taxable year in which the property
33 is placed in service in the Enterprise Zone and shall not
34 be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
SB1854 Enrolled -77- LRB9215370EGfg
1 taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by subsections
2 (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. For tax years
3 ending on or after December 31, 1985, the credit shall be
4 allowed for the tax year in which the property is placed
5 in service, or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the
6 tax liability for that year, whether it exceeds the
7 original liability or the liability as later amended,
8 such excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
9 liability of the 5 taxable years following the excess
10 credit year. The credit shall be applied to the earliest
11 year for which there is a liability. If there is credit
12 from more than one tax year that is available to offset a
13 liability, the credit accruing first in time shall be

24 subsection (f);
25 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in

29 (E) has not been previously used in Illinois
30 in such a manner and by such a person as would

32 (f) or subsection (e).
33 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the
34 basis used to compute the depreciation deduction for

1 federal income tax purposes.
2 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income
3 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
4 placed in service in the Enterprise Zone by the taxpayer,
5 the amount of such increase shall be deemed property
6 placed in service on the date of such increase in basis.
7 (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the
8 same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue
9 Code.
10 (6) If during any taxable year, any property ceases

13 situs of any qualified property is moved outside the
14 Enterprise Zone within 48 months after being placed in
15 service, the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of

17 Such increase shall be determined by (i) recomputing the
18 investment credit which would have been allowed for the
19 year in which credit for such property was originally
20 allowed by eliminating such property from such
21 computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit
22 from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the
23 purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the basis
24 of qualified property resulting from a redetermination of
25 the purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of
26 qualified property to the extent of such reduction.
27 (g) Jobs Tax Credit; Enterprise Zone and Foreign Trade
28 Zone or Sub-Zone.
29 (1) A taxpayer conducting a trade or business in an
30 enterprise zone or a High Impact Business designated by

13 the tax liability for that year, whether it exceeds the
14 original liability or the liability as later amended,
15 such excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
16 liability of the 5 taxable years following the excess
17 credit year. The credit shall be applied to the earliest

8 Illinois Enterprise Zone Act, and shall not be allowed to
9 the extent that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability

11 Section to below zero. The credit applicable to such
12 investments shall be taken in the taxable year in which
13 such investments have been completed. The credit for

26 it exceeds the original liability or the liability as
27 later amended, such excess may be carried forward and
28 applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable years
29 following the excess credit year. The credit shall be
30 applied to the earliest year for which there is a

33 after being placed in service, or the situs of any
34 qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
SB1854 Enrolled -83- LRB9215370EGfg
1 months after being placed in service, the tax imposed
2 under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such
3 taxable year shall be increased. Such increase shall be

5 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for
6 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such
7 property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such
8 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
9 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a
10 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting

13 of such reduction.
14 (7) Beginning with tax years ending after December

32 the denominator of which is Illinois base income, and further
33 multiplying the product by the tax rate imposed by
34 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section.

2 this subsection which is unused in the year the credit is
3 computed because it exceeds the tax liability imposed by
4 subsections (a) and (b) for that year (whether it exceeds the
5 original liability or the liability as later amended) may be
6 carried forward and applied to the tax liability imposed by
7 subsections (a) and (b) of the 5 taxable years following the
8 excess credit year. This credit shall be applied first to
9 the earliest year for which there is a liability. If there
10 is a credit under this subsection from more than one tax year

13 If, during any taxable year ending on or after December
14 31, 1986, the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
15 Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under this
16 subsection (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax
17 shall also be reduced. Such reduction shall be determined by
18 recomputing the credit to take into account the reduced tax
19 imposed by subsections subsection (c) and (d). If any
20 portion of the reduced amount of credit has been carried to a
21 different taxable year, an amended return shall be filed for

30 training in semi-technical or technical fields or
31 semi-skilled or skilled fields, which were deducted from
32 gross income in the computation of taxable income. The
33 credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b)
34 shall be 1.6% of such training expenses. For partners,

9 Any credit allowed under this subsection which is unused
10 in the year the credit is earned may be carried forward to
11 each of the 5 taxable years following the year for which the
12 credit is first computed until it is used. This credit shall
13 be applied first to the earliest year for which there is a
14 liability. If there is a credit under this subsection from
15 more than one tax year that is available to offset a
16 liability the earliest credit arising under this subsection
17 shall be applied first.
18 (k) Research and development credit.
19 Beginning with tax years ending after July 1, 1990, a
20 taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by

25 research activities in this State. For partners,
26 shareholders of subchapter S corporations, and owners of
27 limited liability companies, if the liability company is
28 treated as a partnership for purposes of federal and State
29 income taxation, there shall be allowed a credit under this
30 subsection to be determined in accordance with the
31 determination of income and distributive share of income
32 under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the Internal
33 Revenue Code.
34 For purposes of this subsection, "qualifying
SB1854 Enrolled -86- LRB9215370EGfg
1 expenditures" means the qualifying expenditures as defined
2 for the federal credit for increasing research activities
3 which would be allowable under Section 41 of the Internal
4 Revenue Code and which are conducted in this State,
5 "qualifying expenditures for increasing research activities
6 in this State" means the excess of qualifying expenditures
7 for the taxable year in which incurred over qualifying
8 expenditures for the base period, "qualifying expenditures
9 for the base period" means the average of the qualifying
10 expenditures for each year in the base period, and "base
11 period" means the 3 taxable years immediately preceding the
12 taxable year for which the determination is being made.
13 Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
14 year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
15 unused credit shown on its final completed return carried
16 over as a credit against the tax liability for the following
17 5 taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever
18 occurs first.
19 If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year
20 from 2 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the
21 earliest year will be applied first against the tax liability
22 for the given year. If a tax liability for the given year
23 still remains, the credit from the next earliest year will
24 then be applied, and so on, until all credits have been used
25 or no tax liability for the given year remains. Any
26 remaining unused credit or credits then will be carried
27 forward to the next following year in which a tax liability
28 is incurred, except that no credit can be carried forward to
29 a year which is more than 5 years after the year in which the
30 expense for which the credit is given was incurred.
31 Unless extended by law, the credit shall not include
32 costs incurred after December 31, 2004, except for costs
33 incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or
34 before December 31, 2004.

19 Agency approval of the eligible remediation costs is
20 granted. The credit is not available to any taxpayer if
21 the taxpayer or any related party caused or contributed
22 to, in any material respect, a release of regulated
23 substances on, in, or under the site that was identified
24 and addressed by the remedial action pursuant to the Site

4 taxpayer, as well as any of its partners. The credit
5 allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and
6 (b) shall be equal to 25% of the unreimbursed eligible

10 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs. The total
11 credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year with a
12 maximum total of $150,000 per site. For partners and
13 shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall be
14 allowed a credit under this subsection to be determined
15 in accordance with the determination of income and
16 distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
17 and subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
18 (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
19 unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
20 forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year

25 This credit shall be applied first to the earliest year
26 for which there is a liability. If there is a credit
27 under this subsection from more than one tax year that is
28 available to offset a liability, the earliest credit
29 arising under this subsection shall be applied first. A
30 credit allowed under this subsection may be sold to a
31 buyer as part of a sale of all or part of the remediation
32 site for which the credit was granted. The purchaser of
33 a remediation site and the tax credit shall succeed to
34 the unused credit and remaining carry-forward period of
SB1854 Enrolled -89- LRB9215370EGfg

3 and provide written notice to the Director of the
4 Illinois Department of Revenue of the assignor's intent
5 to sell the remediation site and the amount of the tax
6 credit to be transferred as a portion of the sale. In no
7 event may a credit be transferred to any taxpayer if the
8 taxpayer or a related party would not be eligible under
9 the provisions of subsection (i).
10 (iii) For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
11 shall have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the
12 Environmental Protection Act.

9 Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft,
10 aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered
11 with an agency of this State, each retailer required or
12 authorized to collect the tax imposed by this Act shall pay
13 to the Department the amount of such tax (except as otherwise
14 provided) at the time when he is required to file his return
15 for the period during which such tax was collected, less a
16 discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and
17 after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever is
18 greater, which is allowed to reimburse the retailer for
19 expenses incurred in collecting the tax, keeping records,
20 preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
21 data to the Department on request. In the case of retailers
22 who report and pay the tax on a transaction by transaction
23 basis, as provided in this Section, such discount shall be
24 taken with each such tax remittance instead of when such
25 retailer files his periodic return. A retailer need not
26 remit that part of any tax collected by him to the extent
27 that he is required to remit and does remit the tax imposed
28 by the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, with respect to the
29 sale of the same property.
30 Where such tangible personal property is sold under a
31 conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale
32 wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof,
33 is extended beyond the close of the period for which the
SB1854 Enrolled -139- LRB9215370EGfg
1 return is filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except
2 as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that
3 are required to be registered with an agency of this State),
4 may collect for each tax return period, only the tax
5 applicable to that part of the selling price actually
6 received during such tax return period.
7 Except as provided in this Section, on or before the
8 twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall
9 file a return for the preceding calendar month. Such return
10 shall be filed on forms prescribed by the Department and
11 shall furnish such information as the Department may
12 reasonably require.
13 The Department may require returns to be filed on a
14 quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar
15 quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the
16 calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter.
17 The taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for
18 each of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or
19 before the twentieth day of the following calendar month,
20 stating:
21 1. The name of the seller;
22 2. The address of the principal place of business
23 from which he engages in the business of selling tangible
24 personal property at retail in this State;
25 3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by
26 him during the preceding calendar month from sales of
27 tangible personal property by him during such preceding
28 calendar month, including receipts from charge and time
29 sales, but less all deductions allowed by law;
30 4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of
31 this Act;
32 5. The amount of tax due;
33 5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and
34 6. Such other reasonable information as the
SB1854 Enrolled -140- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Department may require.
2 If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
3 the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
4 the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to
5 be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.
6 Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average
7 monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all
8 payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
9 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has
10 an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall
11 make all payments required by rules of the Department by
12 electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a
13 taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000
14 or more shall make all payments required by rules of the
15 Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1,
16 2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000
17 or more shall make all payments required by rules of the
18 Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual
19 tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities
20 under this Act, and under all other State and local
21 occupation and use tax laws administered by the Department,
22 for the immediately preceding calendar year. The term
23 "average monthly tax liability" means the sum of the
24 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other
25 State and local occupation and use tax laws administered by
26 the Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year
27 divided by 12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who
28 has a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b)
29 of Section 2505-210 of the Department of Revenue Law shall
30 make all payments required by rules of the Department by
31 electronic funds transfer.
32 Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the
33 Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make
34 payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required
SB1854 Enrolled -141- LRB9215370EGfg
1 to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make
2 those payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October
3 1.
4 Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic
5 funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
6 with the permission of the Department.
7 All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic
8 funds transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily
9 make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those
10 payments in the manner authorized by the Department.
11 The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
12 effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the
13 requirements of this Section.
14 Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
15 tax liability to the Department under this Act, the
16 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
17 Act, the Service Use Tax Act was $10,000 or more during the
18 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a
19 return with the Department each month by the 20th day of the
20 month next following the month during which such tax
21 liability is incurred and shall make payments to the
22 Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of
23 the month during which such liability is incurred. On and
24 after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax
25 liability to the Department under this Act, the Retailers'
26 Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the
27 Service Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more during the preceding
28 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the
29 Department each month by the 20th day of the month next
30 following the month during which such tax liability is
31 incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or
32 before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during
33 which such liability is incurred. If the month during which
34 such tax liability is incurred began prior to January 1,
SB1854 Enrolled -142- LRB9215370EGfg
1 1985, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the
2 taxpayer's actual liability for the month or an amount set by
3 the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly
4 liability of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding
5 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest
6 liability and the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter
7 period). If the month during which such tax liability is
8 incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985, and prior to
9 January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
10 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
11 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month
12 of the preceding year. If the month during which such tax
13 liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, and
14 prior to January 1, 1988, each payment shall be in an amount
15 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
16 month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
17 calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during
18 which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
19 January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on
20 or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount
21 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
22 month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
23 calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during
24 which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
25 January 1, 1989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment
26 shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
27 liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability
28 for the same calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of
29 the taxpayer's actual liability for the quarter monthly
30 reporting period. The amount of such quarter monthly
31 payments shall be credited against the final tax liability of
32 the taxpayer's return for that month. Before October 1,
33 2000, once applicable, the requirement of the making of
34 quarter monthly payments to the Department shall continue
SB1854 Enrolled -143- LRB9215370EGfg
1 until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to the
2 Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
3 (excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
4 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 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 shall continue until such
17 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department during
18 the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the
19 month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability)
20 is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
21 liability to the Department as computed for each calendar
22 quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarter period
23 is less than $20,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the
24 Department that a substantial change in the taxpayer's
25 business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to anticipate
26 that his average monthly tax liability for the reasonably
27 foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 threshold
28 stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department
29 for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. The
30 Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status
31 unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and
32 not likely to be long term. If any such quarter monthly
33 payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required by
34 this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
SB1854 Enrolled -144- LRB9215370EGfg
1 and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due
2 and the amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and
3 timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously
4 made payments for that month to the Department in excess of
5 the minimum payments previously due as provided in this
6 Section. The Department shall make reasonable rules and
7 regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount and
8 quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other
9 than a calendar monthly basis.
10 If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
11 the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'
12 Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
13 Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return,
14 the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit
15 memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment,
16 which memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the
17 Department in payment of tax liability subsequently to be
18 remitted by the taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by
19 the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the
20 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act
21 or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable
22 rules and regulations to be prescribed by the Department,
23 except that if such excess payment is shown on an original
24 monthly return and is made after December 31, 1986, no credit
25 memorandum shall be issued, unless requested by the taxpayer.
26 If no such request is made, the taxpayer may credit such
27 excess payment against tax liability subsequently to be
28 remitted by the taxpayer to the Department under this Act,
29 the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
30 Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable
31 rules and regulations prescribed by the Department. If the
32 Department subsequently determines that all or any part of
33 the credit taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the
34 taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced
SB1854 Enrolled -145- LRB9215370EGfg
1 by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the credit taken
2 and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be liable for
3 penalties and interest on such difference.
4 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
5 return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
6 the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
7 authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
8 with the return for January, February, and March of a given
9 year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
10 April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
11 such year; with the return for July, August and September of
12 a given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with
13 the return for October, November and December of a given year
14 being due by January 20 of the following year.
15 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
16 or quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
17 liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the
18 Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
19 basis, with the return for a given year being due by January
20 20 of the following year.
21 Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
22 substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as
23 monthly returns.
24 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act
25 concerning the time within which a retailer may file his
26 return, in the case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a
27 kind of business which makes him responsible for filing
28 returns under this Act, such retailer shall file a final
29 return under this Act with the Department not more than one
30 month after discontinuing such business.
31 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
32 aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered
33 with an agency of this State, every retailer selling this
34 kind of tangible personal property shall file, with the
SB1854 Enrolled -146- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Department, upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the
2 Department, a separate return for each such item of tangible
3 personal property which the retailer sells, except that if,
4 in the same transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft,
5 watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers transfers more than
6 one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another
7 aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer retailer for
8 the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer of aircraft,
9 watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers more than
10 one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer to a
11 purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as provided
12 in Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may report the
13 transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or
14 trailers involved in that transaction to the Department on
15 the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting return form.
16 For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2,
17 Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of
18 the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal watercraft,
19 or any boat equipped with an inboard motor.
20 The transaction reporting return in the case of motor
21 vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with
22 an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the
23 Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois
24 Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the
25 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
26 the selling price including the amount allowed by the
27 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed
28 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
29 if any, to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows
30 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
31 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the
32 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
33 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
34 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or
SB1854 Enrolled -147- LRB9215370EGfg
1 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that
2 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the
3 place and date of the sale; a sufficient identification of
4 the property sold; such other information as is required in
5 Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other
6 information as the Department may reasonably require.
7 The transaction reporting return in the case of
8 watercraft and aircraft must show the name and address of the
9 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
10 the selling price including the amount allowed by the
11 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed
12 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
13 if any, to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows
14 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
15 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the
16 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
17 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
18 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or
19 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that
20 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the
21 place and date of the sale, a sufficient identification of
22 the property sold, and such other information as the
23 Department may reasonably require.
24 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not
25 later than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item
26 that is being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any
27 time sooner than that if he chooses to do so. The
28 transaction reporting return and tax remittance or proof of
29 exemption from the tax that is imposed by this Act may be
30 transmitted to the Department by way of the State agency with
31 which, or State officer with whom, the tangible personal
32 property must be titled or registered (if titling or
33 registration is required) if the Department and such agency
34 or State officer determine that this procedure will expedite
SB1854 Enrolled -148- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the processing of applications for title or registration.
2 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
3 shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
4 satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
5 the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
6 Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax
7 receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
8 satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
9 purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State
10 officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible
11 personal property that is involved (if titling or
12 registration is required) in support of such purchaser's
13 application for an Illinois certificate or other evidence of
14 title or registration to such tangible personal property.
15 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
16 Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
17 retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
18 evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
19 is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user
20 has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
21 Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
22 mandate of this paragraph.
23 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
24 wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
25 of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before
26 the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user
27 has not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify
28 to the fact of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the
29 Department being satisfied of the truth of such
30 certification) transmit the information required by the
31 transaction reporting return and the remittance for tax or
32 proof of exemption directly to the Department and obtain his
33 tax receipt or exemption determination, in which event the
34 transaction reporting return and tax remittance (if a tax
SB1854 Enrolled -149- LRB9215370EGfg
1 payment was required) shall be credited by the Department to
2 the proper retailer's account with the Department, but
3 without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount provided for in this
4 Section being allowed. When the user pays the tax directly
5 to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the same amount
6 and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax
7 had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
8 Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the
9 selling price of tangible personal property which he sells
10 and the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
11 property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof
12 to the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
13 purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When
14 filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax
15 to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the
16 tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use
17 tax which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to
18 the Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the
19 tax to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department
20 by such retailer. If the retailer has not previously
21 remitted the amount of such tax to the Department, he is
22 entitled to no deduction under this Act upon refunding such
23 tax to the purchaser.
24 Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall
25 also include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the
26 total tax covered by such return upon the selling price of
27 tangible personal property purchased by him at retail from a
28 retailer, but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not
29 collected from the retailer filing such return, and such
30 retailer shall remit the amount of such tax to the Department
31 when filing such return.
32 If experience indicates such action to be practicable,
33 the Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or
34 joint return which will enable retailers, who are required to
SB1854 Enrolled -150- LRB9215370EGfg
1 file returns hereunder and also under the Retailers'
2 Occupation Tax Act, to furnish all the return information
3 required by both Acts on the one form.
4 Where the retailer has more than one business registered
5 with the Department under separate registration under this
6 Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a
7 single return covering all such registered businesses, but
8 shall file separate returns for each such registered
9 business.
10 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department
11 shall pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a
12 special fund in the State Treasury which is hereby created,
13 the net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1%
14 tax on sales of food for human consumption which is to be
15 consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than

33 than tangible personal property which is purchased outside
34 Illinois at retail from a retailer and which is titled or

1 registered by an agency of this State's government.
2 Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall

7 shall pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net
8 revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25%
9 general rate on the selling price of tangible personal
10 property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a
11 retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency of
12 this State's government.

14 pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into
15 the Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2%

18 any fiscal year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%,

21 to Section 3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9
22 of the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and

24 hereinafter called the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2%
25 or 3.8%, as the case may be, of moneys being hereinafter
26 called the "Tax Act Amount", and (2) the amount transferred

30 Act), an amount equal to the difference shall be immediately
31 paid into the Build Illinois Fund from other moneys received
32 by the Department pursuant to the Tax Acts; and further

7 other moneys received by the Department pursuant to the Tax
8 Acts; and, further provided, that in no event shall the
9 payments required under the preceding proviso result in
10 aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to
11 this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of the greater
12 of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual Specified Amount
13 for such fiscal year; and, further provided, that the amounts
14 payable into the Build Illinois Fund under this clause (b)
15 shall be payable only until such time as the aggregate amount
16 on deposit under each trust indenture securing Bonds issued
17 and outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act is
18 sufficient, taking into account any future investment income,
19 to fully provide, in accordance with such indenture, for the
20 defeasance of or the payment of the principal of, premium, if
21 any, and interest on the Bonds secured by such indenture and
22 on any Bonds expected to be issued thereafter and all fees
23 and costs payable with respect thereto, all as certified by
24 the Director of the Bureau of the Budget. If on the last
25 business day of any month in which Bonds are outstanding
26 pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act, the aggregate of the
27 moneys deposited in the Build Illinois Bond Account in the
28 Build Illinois Fund in such month shall be less than the
29 amount required to be transferred in such month from the
30 Build Illinois Bond Account to the Build Illinois Bond

9 Sec. 9. Each serviceman required or authorized to
10 collect the tax herein imposed shall pay to the Department
11 the amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the
12 time when he is required to file his return for the period
13 during which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1%
14 prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75% on and after January 1,
15 1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is
16 allowed to reimburse the serviceman for expenses incurred in
17 collecting the tax, keeping records, preparing and filing
18 returns, remitting the tax and supplying data to the
19 Department on request. A serviceman need not remit that part
20 of any tax collected by him to the extent that he is required
21 to pay and does pay the tax imposed by the Service Occupation
22 Tax Act with respect to his sale of service involving the
23 incidental transfer by him of the same property.
24 Except as provided hereinafter in this Section, on or

30 information as the Department may reasonably require.
31 The Department may require returns to be filed on a
32 quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar
33 quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the
SB1854 Enrolled -167- LRB9215370EGfg
1 calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter.

5 stating:
6 1. The name of the seller;
7 2. The address of the principal place of business
8 from which he engages in business as a serviceman in this
9 State;
10 3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by
11 him during the preceding calendar month, including
12 receipts from charge and time sales, but less all
13 deductions allowed by law;
14 4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of
15 this Act;

22 the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to
23 be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.

31 taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000
32 or more shall make all payments required by rules of the
33 Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1,
34 2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000
SB1854 Enrolled -168- LRB9215370EGfg
1 or more shall make all payments required by rules of the
2 Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual
3 tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities
4 under this Act, and under all other State and local
5 occupation and use tax laws administered by the Department,
6 for the immediately preceding calendar year. The term
7 "average monthly tax liability" means the sum of the
8 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other
9 State and local occupation and use tax laws administered by
10 the Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year
11 divided by 12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who
12 has a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b)
13 of Section 2505-210 of the Department of Revenue Law shall
14 make all payments required by rules of the Department by
15 electronic funds transfer.
16 Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the
17 Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make
18 payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required
19 to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make
20 those payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October
21 1.
22 Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic
23 funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
24 with the permission of the Department.
25 All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic
26 funds transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily
27 make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those
28 payments in the manner authorized by the Department.
29 The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
30 effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the
31 requirements of this Section.
32 If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
33 return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax liability
34 to the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
SB1854 Enrolled -169- LRB9215370EGfg
1 authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
2 with the return for January, February and March of a given
3 year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
4 April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
5 such year; with the return for July, August and September of
6 a given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with
7 the return for October, November and December of a given year
8 being due by January 20 of the following year.
9 If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
10 or quarterly return and if the serviceman's average monthly
11 tax liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the
12 Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
13 basis, with the return for a given year being due by January
14 20 of the following year.
15 Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
16 substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as
17 monthly returns.
18 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act
19 concerning the time within which a serviceman may file his
20 return, in the case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in
21 a kind of business which makes him responsible for filing
22 returns under this Act, such serviceman shall file a final
23 return under this Act with the Department not more than 1
24 month after discontinuing such business.
25 Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the
26 selling price of property which he sells and the purchaser
27 thereafter returns such property and the serviceman refunds
28 the selling price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman
29 shall also refund, to the purchaser, the tax so collected
30 from the purchaser. When filing his return for the period in
31 which he refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman
32 may deduct the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the
33 purchaser from any other Service Use Tax, Service Occupation
34 Tax, retailers' occupation tax or use tax which such
SB1854 Enrolled -170- LRB9215370EGfg
1 serviceman may be required to pay or remit to the Department,
2 as shown by such return, provided that the amount of the tax
3 to be deducted shall previously have been remitted to the
4 Department by such serviceman. If the serviceman shall not
5 previously have remitted the amount of such tax to the
6 Department, he shall be entitled to no deduction hereunder
7 upon refunding such tax to the purchaser.
8 Any serviceman filing a return hereunder shall also
9 include the total tax upon the selling price of tangible
10 personal property purchased for use by him as an incident to
11 a sale of service, and such serviceman shall remit the amount
12 of such tax to the Department when filing such return.
13 If experience indicates such action to be practicable,
14 the Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or
15 joint return which will enable servicemen, who are required
16 to file returns hereunder and also under the Service
17 Occupation Tax Act, to furnish all the return information
18 required by both Acts on the one form.
19 Where the serviceman has more than one business
20 registered with the Department under separate registration
21 hereunder, such serviceman shall not file each return that is
22 due as a single return covering all such registered
23 businesses, but shall file separate returns for each such
24 registered business.
25 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department
26 shall pay into the State and Local Tax Reform Fund, a special
27 fund in the State Treasury, the net revenue realized for the
28 preceding month from the 1% tax on sales of food for human
29 consumption which is to be consumed off the premises where it
30 is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and food

16 and on and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid

5 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act
6 concerning the time within which a retailer may file his

8 kind of business which makes him responsible for filing
9 returns under this Act, such retailer shall file a final
10 return under this Act with the Department not more than one
11 month after discontinuing such business.
12 Where the same person has more than one business
13 registered with the Department under separate registrations
14 under this Act, such person may not file each return that is
15 due as a single return covering all such registered
16 businesses, but shall file separate returns for each such
17 registered business.
18 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
19 aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered
20 with an agency of this State, every retailer selling this
21 kind of tangible personal property shall file, with the
22 Department, upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the
23 Department, a separate return for each such item of tangible
24 personal property which the retailer sells, except that if,
25 in the same transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft,
26 watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers transfers more than
27 one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another
28 aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle retailer or trailer
29 retailer for the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer of
30 aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers
31 more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer
32 to a purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as
33 provided in Section 2-5 of this Act, then that seller may

SB1854 Enrolled -213- LRB9215370EGfg
1 vehicles or trailers involved in that transaction to the
2 Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting

4 means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in
5 Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a
6 personal watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard
7 motor.
8 Any retailer who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft,
9 aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with
10 an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation
11 tax liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on
12 such transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise
13 required to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file
14 monthly or quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall
15 be required to file returns on an annual basis.
16 The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor
17 vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with
18 an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the
19 Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of The Illinois
20 Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the
21 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
22 the selling price including the amount allowed by the
23 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed
24 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
25 if any, to the extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows
26 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
27 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the
28 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
29 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
30 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or
31 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that
32 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the
33 place and date of the sale; a sufficient identification of
34 the property sold; such other information as is required in
SB1854 Enrolled -214- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Section 5-402 of The Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other
2 information as the Department may reasonably require.
3 The transaction reporting return in the case of
4 watercraft or aircraft must show the name and address of the
5 seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
6 the selling price including the amount allowed by the
7 retailer for traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed
8 by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
9 if any, to the extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows
10 an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
11 payable after deducting such trade-in allowance from the
12 total selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
13 with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
14 from the purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or
15 satisfactory evidence that such tax is not due in that
16 particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the
17 place and date of the sale, a sufficient identification of
18 the property sold, and such other information as the
19 Department may reasonably require.
20 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not
21 later than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that
22 is being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time
23 sooner than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction
24 reporting return and tax remittance or proof of exemption
25 from the Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the
26 Department by way of the State agency with which, or State
27 officer with whom the tangible personal property must be
28 titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
29 if the Department and such agency or State officer determine
30 that this procedure will expedite the processing of
31 applications for title or registration.
32 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
33 shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
34 satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
SB1854 Enrolled -215- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
2 Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
3 receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
4 satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
5 purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State
6 officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible
7 personal property that is involved (if titling or
8 registration is required) in support of such purchaser's
9 application for an Illinois certificate or other evidence of
10 title or registration to such tangible personal property.
11 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
12 Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
13 retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
14 evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
15 is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user
16 has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
17 Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
18 mandate of this paragraph.
19 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
20 wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
21 of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department
22 before the retailer is willing to take these actions and such
23 user has not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may
24 certify to the fact of such delay by the retailer and may
25 (upon the Department being satisfied of the truth of such
26 certification) transmit the information required by the
27 transaction reporting return and the remittance for tax or
28 proof of exemption directly to the Department and obtain his
29 tax receipt or exemption determination, in which event the
30 transaction reporting return and tax remittance (if a tax
31 payment was required) shall be credited by the Department to
32 the proper retailer's account with the Department, but
33 without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount provided for in this
34 Section being allowed. When the user pays the tax directly
SB1854 Enrolled -216- LRB9215370EGfg
1 to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the same amount
2 and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax
3 had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
4 Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
5 period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal
6 property returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a
7 deduction under subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly

9 theretofore included the receipts from the sale of such
10 tangible personal property in a return filed by him and had
11 paid the tax imposed by this Act with respect to such
12 receipts.
13 Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
14 behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
15 vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
16 accredited agent of such corporation.
17 Where the seller is a limited liability company, the
18 return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall
19 be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent
20 of the limited liability company.
21 Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing
22 the return under this Section shall, at the time of filing
23 such return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed
24 by this Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990
25 and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar
26 year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
27 retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
28 preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
29 data to the Department on request. Any prepayment made
30 pursuant to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the
31 amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In
32 the case of retailers who report and pay the tax on a
33 transaction by transaction basis, as provided in this
34 Section, such discount shall be taken with each such tax

3 Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
4 tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
5 Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
6 Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be
7 remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was
8 $10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar
9 quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each
10 month by the 20th day of the month next following the month
11 during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make
12 payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd
13 and last day of the month during which such liability is
14 incurred. On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's
15 average monthly tax liability to the Department under this
16 Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the
17 Service Use Tax Act, excluding any liability for prepaid
18 sales tax to be remitted in accordance with Section 2d of
19 this Act, was $20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete
20 calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the Department
21 each month by the 20th day of the month next following the
22 month during which such tax liability is incurred and shall
23 make payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th,
24 22nd and last day of the month during which such liability is
25 incurred. If the month during which such tax liability is
26 incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall
27 be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual
28 liability for the month or an amount set by the Department
29 not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability of the
30 taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
31 calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability
32 and the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period).
33 If the month during which such tax liability is incurred
34 begins on or after January 1, 1985 and prior to January 1,
SB1854 Enrolled -218- LRB9215370EGfg
1 1987, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of
2 the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the
3 taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
4 preceding year. If the month during which such tax liability
5 is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987 and prior to
6 January 1, 1988, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
7 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
8 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar
9 month of the preceding year. If the month during which such
10 tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1988,
11 and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or after January
12 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of
13 the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the
14 taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
15 preceding year. If the month during which such tax liability
16 is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and prior to
17 January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
18 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25%
19 of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of
20 the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual liability
21 for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount of such
22 quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the final
23 tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month.
24 Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
25 the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
26 taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000
27 or more as determined in the manner provided above shall
28 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
29 the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
30 quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
31 month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
32 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
33 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding
34 complete calendar quarter period is less than $10,000.

1 However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a
2 substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred
3 which causes the taxpayer to anticipate that his average
4 monthly tax liability for the reasonably foreseeable future
5 will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such
6 taxpayer may petition the Department for a change in such
7 taxpayer's reporting status. On and after October 1, 2000,
8 once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter
9 monthly payments to the Department by taxpayers having an
10 average monthly tax liability of $20,000 or more as
11 determined in the manner provided above shall continue until
12 such taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department
13 during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding
14 the month of highest liability and the month of lowest
15 liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
16 average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
17 each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
18 quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a taxpayer
19 can show the Department that a substantial change in the
20 taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to
21 anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
22 reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000
23 threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
24 Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status.
25 The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status
26 unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and
27 not likely to be long term. If any such quarter monthly
28 payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required by
29 this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
30 and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due
31 as a payment and the amount of such quarter monthly payment
32 actually and timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has
33 previously made payments for that month to the Department in
34 excess of the minimum payments previously due as provided in
SB1854 Enrolled -220- LRB9215370EGfg
1 this Section. The Department shall make reasonable rules and
2 regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount and
3 quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other
4 than a calendar monthly basis.
5 The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
6 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to
7 make quarter monthly payments as specified above, any
8 taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect
9 and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which
10 average in excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2
11 complete calendar quarters, shall file a return with the
12 Department as required by Section 2f and shall make payments
13 to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last
14 day of the month during which such liability is incurred. If
15 the month during which such tax liability is incurred began
16 prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1985,
17 each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
18 taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month
19 during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
20 after January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount
21 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
22 month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
23 calendar month of the preceding calendar year. If the month
24 during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
25 after January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount
26 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
27 month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
28 calendar month of the preceding year. 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 filed
31 under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be. Once
32 applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter monthly
33 payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph shall
34 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
SB1854 Enrolled -221- LRB9215370EGfg
1 collections during the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters
2 is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter monthly payment is
3 not paid at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer
4 shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
5 difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously
6 made payments for that month in excess of the minimum
7 payments previously due.
8 The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after
9 October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is
10 required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above,
11 any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to
12 collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid
13 taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the
14 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return
15 with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make
16 payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd
17 and last day of the month during which the liability is
18 incurred. Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5%
19 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of
20 the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
21 preceding year. The amount of the quarter monthly payments
22 shall be credited against the final tax liability of the
23 taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or
24 Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
25 requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
26 Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until
27 the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during
28 the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the
29 month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability)
30 is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
31 liability to the Department as computed for each calendar
32 quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less
33 than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not
34 paid at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer
SB1854 Enrolled -222- LRB9215370EGfg
1 shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
2 difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously
3 made payments for that month in excess of the minimum
4 payments previously due.
5 If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
6 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
7 Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
8 shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
9 requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
10 memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment.
11 The credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be
12 assigned by the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this
13 Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the
14 Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
15 regulations to be prescribed by the Department. If no such
16 request is made, the taxpayer may credit such excess payment
17 against tax liability subsequently to be remitted to the
18 Department under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service
19 Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance
20 with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by the
21 Department. If the Department subsequently determined that
22 all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to
23 the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount
24 shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between
25 the credit taken and that actually due, and that taxpayer
26 shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
27 difference.
28 If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
29 Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
30 to the Department under this Act for the month which the
31 taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
32 taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
33 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department
34 shall pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund
SB1854 Enrolled -223- LRB9215370EGfg

16 net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25%
17 rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.
18 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department

3 preceding proviso result in aggregate payments into the Build
4 Illinois Fund pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year

22 agree with the gross receipts reported to the Department of
23 Revenue for the same period, the retailer shall attach to his
24 annual return a schedule showing a reconciliation of the 2

12 Sec. 14-114. Automatic increase in retirement annuity.
13 (a) Any person receiving a retirement annuity under this
14 Article who retires having attained age 60, or who retires
15 before age 60 having at least 35 years of creditable service,
16 or who retires on or after January 1, 2001 at an age which,
17 when added to the number of years of his or her creditable
18 service, equals at least 85, shall, on January 1 next
19 following the first full year of retirement, have the amount
20 of the then fixed and payable monthly retirement annuity
21 increased 3%. Any person receiving a retirement annuity
22 under this Article who retires before attainment of age 60
23 and with less than (i) 35 years of creditable service if
24 retirement is before January 1, 2001, or (ii) the number of
25 years of creditable service which, when added to the member's
26 age, would equal 85, if retirement is on or after January 1,
27 2001, shall have the amount of the fixed and payable
28 retirement annuity increased by 3% on the January 1 occurring
29 on or next following (1) attainment of age 60, or (2) the
30 first anniversary of retirement, whichever occurs later.
31 However, for persons who receive the alternative retirement
32 annuity under Section 14-110, references in this subsection
33 (a) to attainment of age 60 shall be deemed to refer to
SB1854 Enrolled -261- LRB9215370EGfg
1 attainment of age 55. For a person receiving early
2 retirement incentives under Section 14-108.3 whose retirement
3 annuity began after January 1, 1992 pursuant to an extension
4 granted under subsection (e) of that Section, the first
5 anniversary of retirement shall be deemed to be January 1,
6 1993. For a person who retires on or after June 28, 2001 the
7 effective date of this amendatory Act of the 92nd General
8 Assembly and on or before October 1, 2001 the first day of
9 the fourth calendar month following the month in which this
10 amendatory Act takes effect, and whose retirement annuity is
11 calculated, in whole or in part, under Section 14-110 or
12 subsection (g) or (h) of Section 14-108, the first
13 anniversary of retirement shall be deemed to be January 1,
14 2002.
15 On each January 1 following the date of the initial
16 increase under this subsection, the employee's monthly
17 retirement annuity shall be increased by an additional 3%.
18 Beginning January 1, 1990, all automatic annual increases
19 payable under this Section shall be calculated as a
20 percentage of the total annuity payable at the time of the
21 increase, including previous increases granted under this
22 Article.
23 (b) The provisions of subsection (a) of this Section
24 shall be applicable to an employee only if the employee makes
25 the additional contributions required after December 31, 1969
26 for the purpose of the automatic increases for not less than
27 the equivalent of one full year. If an employee becomes an
28 annuitant before his additional contributions equal one full
29 year's contributions based on his salary at the date of
30 retirement, the employee may pay the necessary balance of the
31 contributions to the system, without interest, and be
32 eligible for the increasing annuity authorized by this
33 Section.
34 (c) The provisions of subsection (a) of this Section
SB1854 Enrolled -262- LRB9215370EGfg
1 shall not be applicable to any annuitant who is on retirement
2 on December 31, 1969, and thereafter returns to State
3 service, unless the member has established at least one year
4 of additional creditable service following reentry into
5 service.
6 (d) In addition to other increases which may be provided
7 by this Section, on January 1, 1981 any annuitant who was
8 receiving a retirement annuity on or before January 1, 1971
9 shall have his retirement annuity then being paid increased
10 $1 per month for each year of creditable service. On January
11 1, 1982, any annuitant who began receiving a retirement
12 annuity on or before January 1, 1977, shall have his
13 retirement annuity then being paid increased $1 per month for
14 each year of creditable service.
15 On January 1, 1987, any annuitant who began receiving a
16 retirement annuity on or before January 1, 1977, shall have
17 the monthly retirement annuity increased by an amount equal
18 to 8¢ per year of creditable service times the number of
19 years that have elapsed since the annuity began.
20 (e) Every person who receives the alternative retirement
21 annuity under Section 14-110 and who is eligible to receive
22 the 3% increase under subsection (a) on January 1, 1986,
23 shall also receive on that date a one-time increase in
24 retirement annuity equal to the difference between (1) his
25 actual retirement annuity on that date, including any
26 increases received under subsection (a), and (2) the amount
27 of retirement annuity he would have received on that date if
28 the amendments to subsection (a) made by Public Act 84-162
29 had been in effect since the date of his retirement.

30 1998 and before the effective date of this amendatory Act of
31 the 92nd General Assembly with at least 30 years of

1 minus the amount he or she actually received. A member may
2 not elect to qualify for the augmented rate for only a
3 portion of his or her creditable service earned before July

5 (b) The contribution shall be an amount equal to 1.0% of
6 the member's highest salary rate in the 4 consecutive school
7 years immediately prior to but not including the school year
8 in which the application occurs, multiplied by the number of
9 years of creditable service earned by the member before July
10 1, 1998 or 20, whichever is less. This contribution shall be
11 reduced by 1.0% of that salary rate for every 3 full years of
12 creditable service earned by the member after June 30, 1998.
13 The contribution shall be further reduced at the rate of 25%
14 of the contribution (as reduced for service after June 30,

16 in excess of 34 years. The contribution shall not in any
17 event exceed 20% of that salary rate.
18 The member shall pay to the Fund the amount of the
19 contribution as calculated at the time of application under
20 this Section. The amount of the contribution determined

22 retirement, and if the Fund determines that the amount paid
23 by the member exceeds the recalculated amount, the Fund shall
24 refund the difference to the member with regular interest
25 from the date of payment to the date of refund.
26 The contribution required by this subsection shall be
27 paid in one of the following ways or in a combination of the

2 installments over a 24-month period, by a deduction from
3 the annuitant's monthly benefit.
4 (c) If the member fails to make the full contribution
5 under this Section in a timely fashion, the payments made
6 under this Section shall be refunded to the member, without
7 interest. If the member dies before making the full
8 contribution, the payments made under this Section shall be
9 refunded to the member's designated beneficiary.
10 (d) For purposes of this Section and subsection (b) of
11 Section 17-116, optional creditable service established by a
12 member shall be deemed to have been earned at the time of the
13 employment or other qualifying event upon which the service
14 is based, rather than at the time the credit was established
15 in this Fund.
16 (e) The contributions required under this Section are
17 the responsibility of the teacher and not the teacher's
18 employer. However, an employer of teachers may 3ay, after
19 the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1998,
20 specifically agree, through collective bargaining or
21 otherwise, to make the contributions required by this Section
22 on behalf of those teachers.

25 member of the governing body of the municipality is
26 interested in the bank or savings and loan association as an
27 officer or employee or as a holder of less than 7 1/2% of the
28 total ownership interest. A member holding an interest
29 described in this subsection (e) in a contract does not hold

32 planned course of action developed by the electric utility
33 that is implemented when the demand for electricity exceeds,
SB1854 Enrolled -276- LRB9215370EGfg
1 or is at significant risk of exceeding, the supply of
2 electricity available to the electric utility and (ii) "local
3 emergency energy plan ordinance" means an ordinance adopted
4 by the corporate authorities of the municipality under this
5 Section that requires local emergency energy plans.
6 (b) A local emergency energy plan must include the
7 following information:
8 (1) the circumstances that would require the
9 implementation of the plan;
10 (2) the levels or stages of the plan;
11 (3) the approximate geographic limits of each
12 outage area provided for in the plan;

21 buildings in excess of 80 feet in height that have been
22 identified by the municipality, and persons on life
23 support systems that are known to the electric utility
24 that could be affected by controlled rotating
25 interruptions of electric service under the plan; and
26 (6) the anticipated sequence and duration of
27 intentional interruptions of electric service to each
28 outage area under the plan.
29 (c) A local emergency energy plan ordinance may require
30 that, when an electric utility determines it is necessary to
31 implement a controlled rotating interruption of electric
32 service because the demand for electricity exceeds, or is at
33 significant risk of exceeding, the supply of electricity
34 available to the electric utility, the electric utility
SB1854 Enrolled -277- LRB9215370EGfg
1 notify a designated municipal officer that the electric
2 utility will be implementing its local emergency energy plan.
3 The notification shall be made pursuant to a procedure
4 approved by the municipality after consultation with the
5 electric utility.
6 (d) After providing the notice required in subsection
7 (c), an electric utility shall reasonably and separately
8 advise designated municipal officials before it implements
9 each level or stage of the plan, which shall include (i) a
10 request for emergency help from neighboring utilities, (ii) a
11 declaration of a control area emergency, and (iii) a public
12 appeal for voluntary curtailment of electricity use.
13 (e) The electric utility must give a separate notice to
14 a designated municipal official immediately after it
15 determines that there will be a controlled rotating
16 interruption of electric service under the local emergency
17 energy plan. The notification must include (i) the areas in
18 which service will be interrupted, (ii) the sequence and
19 estimated duration of the service outage for each area, (iii)
20 the affected feeders, and (iv) the number of affected
21 customers in each area. Whenever practical, the notification
22 shall be made at least 2 hours before the time of the
23 outages. If the electric utility is aware that controlled
24 rotating interruptions may be required, the notification may
25 not be made less than 30 minutes before the outages.
26 (f) A local emergency energy plan ordinance may provide
27 civil penalties for violations of its provisions. The
28 penalties must be permitted under the Illinois Municipal
29 Code.
30 (g) The notifications required by this Section are in
31 addition to the notification requirements of any applicable
32 franchise agreement or ordinance and to the notification
33 requirements of any applicable federal or State law, rule,
34 and regulation.
SB1854 Enrolled -278- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (h) Except for any penalties or remedies that may be
2 provided in a local emergency energy plan ordinance, in this
3 Act, or in rules adopted by the Illinois Commerce Commission,
4 nothing in this Section shall be construed to impose
5 liability for or prevent a utility from taking any actions
6 that are necessary at any time, in any order, and with or
7 without notice that are required to preserve the integrity of
8 the electric utility's electrical system and interconnected
9 network.
10 (i) Nothing in this Section, a local emergency energy
11 plan ordinance, or a local emergency energy plan creates any
12 duty of a municipality to any person or entity. No
13 municipality may be subject to any claim or cause of action
14 arising, directly or indirectly, from its decision to adopt
15 or to refrain from adopting a local emergency energy plan
16 ordinance. No municipality may be subject to any claim or
17 cause of action arising, directly or indirectly, from any act
18 or omission under the terms of or information provided in a
19 local emergency energy plan filed under a local emergency
20 energy plan ordinance.

17 Sec. 11-74.4-3. Definitions. The following terms,
18 wherever used or referred to in this Division 74.4 shall have
19 the following respective meanings, unless in any case a
20 different meaning clearly appears from the context.
21 (a) For any redevelopment project area that has been
22 designated pursuant to this Section by an ordinance adopted
23 prior to November 1, 1999 (the effective date of Public Act
24 91-478), "blighted area" shall have the meaning set forth in
25 this Section prior to that date.
26 On and after November 1, 1999, "blighted area" means any
27 improved or vacant area within the boundaries of a
28 redevelopment project area located within the territorial
29 limits of the municipality where:
30 (1) If improved, industrial, commercial, and
31 residential buildings or improvements are detrimental to
32 the public safety, health, or welfare because of a
33 combination of 5 or more of the following factors, each
SB1854 Enrolled -280- LRB9215370EGfg
1 of which is (i) present, with that presence documented,
2 to a meaningful extent so that a municipality may
3 reasonably find that the factor is clearly present within
4 the intent of the Act and (ii) reasonably distributed
5 throughout the improved part of the redevelopment project
6 area:
7 (A) Dilapidation. An advanced state of
8 disrepair or neglect of necessary repairs to the
9 primary structural components of buildings or
10 improvements in such a combination that a documented
11 building condition analysis determines that major
12 repair is required or the defects are so serious and
13 so extensive that the buildings must be removed.
14 (B) Obsolescence. The condition or process of
15 falling into disuse. Structures have become
16 ill-suited for the original use.
17 (C) Deterioration. With respect to buildings,
18 defects including, but not limited to, major defects
19 in the secondary building components such as doors,
20 windows, porches, gutters and downspouts, and
21 fascia. With respect to surface improvements, that
22 the condition of roadways, alleys, curbs, gutters,
23 sidewalks, off-street parking, and surface storage
24 areas evidence deterioration, including, but not
25 limited to, surface cracking, crumbling, potholes,
26 depressions, loose paving material, and weeds
27 protruding through paved surfaces.
28 (D) Presence of structures below minimum code
29 standards. All structures that do not meet the
30 standards of zoning, subdivision, building, fire,
31 and other governmental codes applicable to property,
32 but not including housing and property maintenance
33 codes.
34 (E) Illegal use of individual structures. The
SB1854 Enrolled -281- LRB9215370EGfg
1 use of structures in violation of applicable
2 federal, State, or local laws, exclusive of those
3 applicable to the presence of structures below
4 minimum code standards.
5 (F) Excessive vacancies. The presence of
6 buildings that are unoccupied or under-utilized and
7 that represent an adverse influence on the area
8 because of the frequency, extent, or duration of the
9 vacancies.
10 (G) Lack of ventilation, light, or sanitary
11 facilities. The absence of adequate ventilation for
12 light or air circulation in spaces or rooms without
13 windows, or that require the removal of dust, odor,
14 gas, smoke, or other noxious airborne materials.
15 Inadequate natural light and ventilation means the
16 absence of skylights or windows for interior spaces
17 or rooms and improper window sizes and amounts by
18 room area to window area ratios. Inadequate
19 sanitary facilities refers to the absence or
20 inadequacy of garbage storage and enclosure,
21 bathroom facilities, hot water and kitchens, and
22 structural inadequacies preventing ingress and
23 egress to and from all rooms and units within a
24 building.
25 (H) Inadequate utilities. Underground and
26 overhead utilities such as storm sewers and storm
27 drainage, sanitary sewers, water lines, and gas,
28 telephone, and electrical services that are shown to
29 be inadequate. Inadequate utilities are those that
30 are: (i) of insufficient capacity to serve the uses
31 in the redevelopment project area, (ii)
32 deteriorated, antiquated, obsolete, or in disrepair,
33 or (iii) lacking within the redevelopment project
34 area.
SB1854 Enrolled -282- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (I) Excessive land coverage and overcrowding
2 of structures and community facilities. The
3 over-intensive use of property and the crowding of
4 buildings and accessory facilities onto a site.
5 Examples of problem conditions warranting the
6 designation of an area as one exhibiting excessive
7 land coverage are: (i) the presence of buildings
8 either improperly situated on parcels or located on
9 parcels of inadequate size and shape in relation to
10 present-day standards of development for health and
11 safety and (ii) the presence of multiple buildings
12 on a single parcel. For there to be a finding of
13 excessive land coverage, these parcels must exhibit
14 one or more of the following conditions:
15 insufficient provision for light and air within or
16 around buildings, increased threat of spread of fire
17 due to the close proximity of buildings, lack of
18 adequate or proper access to a public right-of-way,
19 lack of reasonably required off-street parking, or
20 inadequate provision for loading and service.
21 (J) Deleterious land use or layout. The
22 existence of incompatible land-use relationships,
23 buildings occupied by inappropriate mixed-uses, or
24 uses considered to be noxious, offensive, or
25 unsuitable for the surrounding area.
26 (K) Environmental clean-up. The proposed
27 redevelopment project area has incurred Illinois
28 Environmental Protection Agency or United States
29 Environmental Protection Agency remediation costs
30 for, or a study conducted by an independent
31 consultant recognized as having expertise in
32 environmental remediation has determined a need for,
33 the clean-up of hazardous waste, hazardous
34 substances, or underground storage tanks required by
SB1854 Enrolled -283- LRB9215370EGfg
1 State or federal law, provided that the remediation
2 costs constitute a material impediment to the
3 development or redevelopment of the redevelopment
4 project area.
5 (L) Lack of community planning. The proposed
6 redevelopment project area was developed prior to or
7 without the benefit or guidance of a community plan.
8 This means that the development occurred prior to
9 the adoption by the municipality of a comprehensive
10 or other community plan or that the plan was not
11 followed at the time of the area's development.
12 This factor must be documented by evidence of
13 adverse or incompatible land-use relationships,
14 inadequate street layout, improper subdivision,
15 parcels of inadequate shape and size to meet
16 contemporary development standards, or other
17 evidence demonstrating an absence of effective
18 community planning.
19 (M) The total equalized assessed value of the
20 proposed redevelopment project area has declined for
21 3 of the last 5 calendar years prior to the year in
22 which the redevelopment project area is designated
23 or is increasing at an annual rate that is less than
24 the balance of the municipality for 3 of the last 5
25 calendar years for which information is available or
26 is increasing at an annual rate that is less than
27 the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
28 published by the United States Department of Labor
29 or successor agency for 3 of the last 5 calendar
30 years prior to the year in which the redevelopment
31 project area is designated.
32 (2) If vacant, the sound growth of the
33 redevelopment project area is impaired by a combination
34 of 2 or more of the following factors, each of which is
SB1854 Enrolled -284- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (i) present, with that presence documented, to a
2 meaningful extent so that a municipality may reasonably
3 find that the factor is clearly present within the intent
4 of the Act and (ii) reasonably distributed throughout the
5 vacant part of the redevelopment project area to which it
6 pertains:
7 (A) Obsolete platting of vacant land that
8 results in parcels of limited or narrow size or
9 configurations of parcels of irregular size or shape
10 that would be difficult to develop on a planned
11 basis and in a manner compatible with contemporary
12 standards and requirements, or platting that failed
13 to create rights-of-ways for streets or alleys or
14 that created inadequate right-of-way widths for
15 streets, alleys, or other public rights-of-way or
16 that omitted easements for public utilities.
17 (B) Diversity of ownership of parcels of
18 vacant land sufficient in number to retard or impede
19 the ability to assemble the land for development.
20 (C) Tax and special assessment delinquencies
21 exist or the property has been the subject of tax
22 sales under the Property Tax Code within the last 5
23 years.
24 (D) Deterioration of structures or site
25 improvements in neighboring areas adjacent to the
26 vacant land.
27 (E) The area has incurred Illinois
28 Environmental Protection Agency or United States
29 Environmental Protection Agency remediation costs
30 for, or a study conducted by an independent
31 consultant recognized as having expertise in
32 environmental remediation has determined a need for,
33 the clean-up of hazardous waste, hazardous
34 substances, or underground storage tanks required by
SB1854 Enrolled -285- LRB9215370EGfg
1 State or federal law, provided that the remediation
2 costs constitute a material impediment to the
3 development or redevelopment of the redevelopment
4 project area.
5 (F) The total equalized assessed value of the
6 proposed redevelopment project area has declined for
7 3 of the last 5 calendar years prior to the year in
8 which the redevelopment project area is designated
9 or is increasing at an annual rate that is less than
10 the balance of the municipality for 3 of the last 5
11 calendar years for which information is available or
12 is increasing at an annual rate that is less than
13 the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers
14 published by the United States Department of Labor
15 or successor agency for 3 of the last 5 calendar
16 years prior to the year in which the redevelopment
17 project area is designated.
18 (3) If vacant, the sound growth of the
19 redevelopment project area is impaired by one of the
20 following factors that (i) is present, with that presence
21 documented, to a meaningful extent so that a municipality
22 may reasonably find that the factor is clearly present
23 within the intent of the Act and (ii) is reasonably
24 distributed throughout the vacant part of the
25 redevelopment project area to which it pertains:
26 (A) The area consists of one or more unused
27 quarries, mines, or strip mine ponds.
28 (B) The area consists of unused railyards,
29 rail tracks, or railroad rights-of-way.
30 (C) The area, prior to its designation, is
31 subject to chronic flooding that adversely impacts
32 on real property in the area as certified by a
33 registered professional engineer or appropriate
34 regulatory agency.
SB1854 Enrolled -286- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (D) The area consists of an unused or illegal
2 disposal site containing earth, stone, building
3 debris, or similar materials that were removed from
4 construction, demolition, excavation, or dredge
5 sites.
6 (E) Prior to November 1, 1999, the area is not
7 less than 50 nor more than 100 acres and 75% of
8 which is vacant (notwithstanding that the area has
9 been used for commercial agricultural purposes
10 within 5 years prior to the designation of the
11 redevelopment project area), and the area meets at
12 least one of the factors itemized in paragraph (1)
13 of this subsection, the area has been designated as
14 a town or village center by ordinance or
15 comprehensive plan adopted prior to January 1, 1982,
16 and the area has not been developed for that
17 designated purpose.
18 (F) The area qualified as a blighted improved
19 area immediately prior to becoming vacant, unless
20 there has been substantial private investment in the
21 immediately surrounding area.
22 (b) For any redevelopment project area that has been
23 designated pursuant to this Section by an ordinance adopted
24 prior to November 1, 1999 (the effective date of Public Act
25 91-478), "conservation area" shall have the meaning set forth
26 in this Section prior to that date.
27 On and after November 1, 1999, "conservation area" means
28 any improved area within the boundaries of a redevelopment
29 project area located within the territorial limits of the
30 municipality in which 50% or more of the structures in the
31 area have an age of 35 years or more. Such an area is not
32 yet a blighted area but because of a combination of 3 or more
33 of the following factors is detrimental to the public safety,
34 health, morals or welfare and such an area may become a
SB1854 Enrolled -287- LRB9215370EGfg
1 blighted area:
2 (1) Dilapidation. An advanced state of disrepair
3 or neglect of necessary repairs to the primary structural
4 components of buildings or improvements in such a
5 combination that a documented building condition analysis
6 determines that major repair is required or the defects
7 are so serious and so extensive that the buildings must
8 be removed.
9 (2) Obsolescence. The condition or process of
10 falling into disuse. Structures have become ill-suited
11 for the original use.
12 (3) Deterioration. With respect to buildings,

1 (7) Lack of ventilation, light, or sanitary
2 facilities. The absence of adequate ventilation for
3 light or air circulation in spaces or rooms without
4 windows, or that require the removal of dust, odor, gas,
5 smoke, or other noxious airborne materials. Inadequate
6 natural light and ventilation means the absence or
7 inadequacy of skylights or windows for interior spaces or
8 rooms and improper window sizes and amounts by room area
9 to window area ratios. Inadequate sanitary facilities
10 refers to the absence or inadequacy of garbage storage
11 and enclosure, bathroom facilities, hot water and

19 Inadequate utilities are those that are: (i) of
20 insufficient capacity to serve the uses in the
21 redevelopment project area, (ii) deteriorated,
22 antiquated, obsolete, or in disrepair, or (iii) lacking
23 within the redevelopment project area.
24 (9) Excessive land coverage and overcrowding of
25 structures and community facilities. The over-intensive
26 use of property and the crowding of buildings and
27 accessory facilities onto a site. Examples of problem
28 conditions warranting the designation of an area as one
29 exhibiting excessive land coverage are: the presence of
30 buildings either improperly situated on parcels or
31 located on parcels of inadequate size and shape in
32 relation to present-day standards of development for
33 health and safety and the presence of multiple buildings
34 on a single parcel. For there to be a finding of
SB1854 Enrolled -289- LRB9215370EGfg
1 excessive land coverage, these parcels must exhibit one
2 or more of the following conditions: insufficient
3 provision for light and air within or around buildings,
4 increased threat of spread of fire due to the close
5 proximity of buildings, lack of adequate or proper access
6 to a public right-of-way, lack of reasonably required
7 off-street parking, or inadequate provision for loading
8 and service.
9 (10) Deleterious land use or layout. The existence
10 of incompatible land-use relationships, buildings
11 occupied by inappropriate mixed-uses, or uses considered

17 means that the development occurred prior to the adoption
18 by the municipality of a comprehensive or other community
19 plan or that the plan was not followed at the time of the
20 area's development. This factor must be documented by
21 evidence of adverse or incompatible land-use
22 relationships, inadequate street layout, improper
23 subdivision, parcels of inadequate shape and size to meet
24 contemporary development standards, or other evidence
25 demonstrating an absence of effective community planning.
26 (12) The area has incurred Illinois Environmental
27 Protection Agency or United States Environmental
28 Protection Agency remediation costs for, or a study
29 conducted by an independent consultant recognized as
30 having expertise in environmental remediation has
31 determined a need for, the clean-up of hazardous waste,
32 hazardous substances, or underground storage tanks
33 required by State or federal law, provided that the
34 remediation costs constitute a material impediment to the
SB1854 Enrolled -290- LRB9215370EGfg
1 development or redevelopment of the redevelopment project
2 area.
3 (13) The total equalized assessed value of the
4 proposed redevelopment project area has declined for 3 of
5 the last 5 calendar years for which information is
6 available or is increasing at an annual rate that is less
7 than the balance of the municipality for 3 of the last 5
8 calendar years for which information is available or is

4 also 100% or more of the national average unemployment rate
5 for that same time as published in the United States
6 Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics publication
7 entitled "The Employment Situation" or its successor
8 publication. For the purpose of this subsection, if
9 unemployment rate statistics for the municipality are not
10 available, the unemployment rate in the municipality shall be
11 deemed to be the same as the unemployment rate in the

31 equal to the increase in the aggregate amount of taxes paid
32 to a municipality from the Local Government Tax Fund arising
33 from sales by retailers and servicemen within the
34 redevelopment project area or State Sales Tax Boundary, as

1 the case may be, for as long as the redevelopment project
2 area or State Sales Tax Boundary, as the case may be, exist
3 over and above the aggregate amount of taxes as certified by

8 redevelopment project area or State Sales Tax Boundary, as
9 the case may be, during the base year which shall be the
10 calendar year immediately prior to the year in which the
11 municipality adopted tax increment allocation financing. For
12 purposes of computing the aggregate amount of such taxes for
13 base years occurring prior to 1985, the Department of Revenue
14 shall determine the Initial Sales Tax Amounts for such taxes
15 and deduct therefrom an amount equal to 4% of the aggregate
16 amount of taxes per year for each year the base year is prior
17 to 1985, but not to exceed a total deduction of 12%. The
18 amount so determined shall be known as the "Adjusted Initial

24 the redevelopment project area or the State Sales Tax
25 Boundary, as the case may be, the certified Initial Sales Tax
26 Amounts, the Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts or the
27 Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts for the Municipal
28 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and the Municipal Service
29 Occupation Tax Act. For the State Fiscal Year 1989, this
30 calculation shall be made by utilizing the calendar year 1987
31 to determine the tax amounts received. For the State Fiscal
32 Year 1990, this calculation shall be made by utilizing the
33 period from January 1, 1988, until September 30, 1988, to
34 determine the tax amounts received from retailers and
SB1854 Enrolled -293- LRB9215370EGfg

2 Tax and the Municipal Service Occupation Tax Act, which shall
3 have deducted therefrom nine-twelfths of the certified

5 Amounts or the Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts as
6 appropriate. For the State Fiscal Year 1991, this calculation
7 shall be made by utilizing the period from October 1, 1988,
8 to June 30, 1989, to determine the tax amounts received from
9 retailers and servicemen pursuant to the Municipal Retailers'
10 Occupation Tax and the Municipal Service Occupation Tax Act
11 which shall have deducted therefrom nine-twelfths of the
12 certified Initial Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales

6 municipalities 100% of their Net State Sales Tax Increment
7 before any distribution to any other municipality and
8 regardless of whether or not those other municipalities will
9 receive 100% of their Net State Sales Tax Increment. For

5 is not terminated, the Net State Sales Tax Increment shall be
6 calculated, beginning on the date on which the bonds are
7 retired or the contracts are completed, as follows: By
8 multiplying the Net State Sales Tax Increment by 60% in the
9 State Fiscal Year 2002; 50% in the State Fiscal Year 2003;
10 40% in the State Fiscal Year 2004; 30% in the State Fiscal
11 Year 2005; 20% in the State Fiscal Year 2006; and 10% in the
12 State Fiscal Year 2007. No payment shall be made for State

3 until the year 2007, for any municipality that has not
4 entered into a contract or has not issued bonds prior to June
5 1, 1988 to finance redevelopment project costs within a
6 redevelopment project area, the Net State Utility Tax
7 Increment shall be calculated as follows: By multiplying the

22 be extended by municipal ordinance to December 31, 2013.
23 The extension allowed by this amendatory Act of 1993
24 shall not apply to real property tax increment allocation
25 financing under Section 11-74.4-8.
26 A municipality may by municipal ordinance amend an
27 existing redevelopment plan to conform to this paragraph
28 (3) as amended by Public Act 91-478, which municipal
29 ordinance may be adopted without further hearing or
30 notice and without complying with the procedures provided
31 in this Act pertaining to an amendment to or the initial
32 approval of a redevelopment plan and project and
33 designation of a redevelopment project area.
34 Those dates, for purposes of real property tax
SB1854 Enrolled -302- LRB9215370EGfg
1 increment allocation financing pursuant to Section
2 11-74.4-8 only, shall be not more than 35 years for
3 redevelopment project areas that were adopted on or after
4 December 16, 1986 and for which at least $8 million worth
5 of municipal bonds were authorized on or after December
6 19, 1989 but before January 1, 1990; provided that the
7 municipality elects to extend the life of the
8 redevelopment project area to 35 years by the adoption of
9 an ordinance after at least 14 but not more than 30 days'
10 written notice to the taxing bodies, that would otherwise
11 constitute the joint review board for the redevelopment
12 project area, before the adoption of the ordinance.
13 Those dates, for purposes of real property tax
14 increment allocation financing pursuant to Section
15 11-74.4-8 only, shall be not more than 35 years for
16 redevelopment project areas that were established on or
17 after December 1, 1981 but before January 1, 1982 and for
18 which at least $1,500,000 worth of tax increment revenue
19 bonds were authorized on or after September 30, 1990 but
20 before July 1, 1991; provided that the municipality
21 elects to extend the life of the redevelopment project
22 area to 35 years by the adoption of an ordinance after at
23 least 14 but not more than 30 days' written notice to the
24 taxing bodies, that would otherwise constitute the joint
25 review board for the redevelopment project area, before
26 the adoption of the ordinance.
27 (3.5) The municipality finds, in the case of an
28 industrial park conservation area, also that the
29 municipality is a labor surplus municipality and that the
30 implementation of the redevelopment plan will reduce
31 unemployment, create new jobs and by the provision of new
32 facilities enhance the tax base of the taxing districts
33 that extend into the redevelopment project area.
34 (4) If any incremental revenues are being utilized
SB1854 Enrolled -303- LRB9215370EGfg
1 under Section 8(a)(1) or 8(a)(2) of this Act in
2 redevelopment project areas approved by ordinance after
3 January 1, 1986, the municipality finds: (a) that the
4 redevelopment project area would not reasonably be
5 developed without the use of such incremental revenues,
6 and (b) that such incremental revenues will be
7 exclusively utilized for the development of the
8 redevelopment project area.
9 (5) On and after November 1, 1999, if the
10 redevelopment plan will not result in displacement of 10
11 or more residents from inhabited units, and the
12 municipality certifies in the plan that such displacement
13 will not result from the plan, a housing impact study
14 need not be performed. If, however, the redevelopment
15 plan would result in the displacement of residents from
16 10 or more inhabited residential units, or if the
17 redevelopment project area contains 75 or more inhabited
18 residential units and no certification is made, then the
19 municipality shall prepare, as part of the separate
20 feasibility report required by subsection (a) of Section
21 11-74.4-5, a housing impact study.
22 Part I of the housing impact study shall include (i)
23 data as to whether the residential units are single
24 family or multi-family units, (ii) the number and type of
25 rooms within the units, if that information is available,
26 (iii) whether the units are inhabited or uninhabited, as
27 determined not less than 45 days before the date that the
28 ordinance or resolution required by subsection (a) of
29 Section 11-74.4-5 is passed, and (iv) data as to the
30 racial and ethnic composition of the residents in the
31 inhabited residential units. The data requirement as to
32 the racial and ethnic composition of the residents in the
33 inhabited residential units shall be deemed to be fully
34 satisfied by data from the most recent federal census.
SB1854 Enrolled -304- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Part II of the housing impact study shall identify
2 the inhabited residential units in the proposed
3 redevelopment project area that are to be or may be
4 removed. If inhabited residential units are to be
5 removed, then the housing impact study shall identify (i)
6 the number and location of those units that will or may
7 be removed, (ii) the municipality's plans for relocation
8 assistance for those residents in the proposed
9 redevelopment project area whose residences are to be
10 removed, (iii) the availability of replacement housing
11 for those residents whose residences are to be removed,
12 and shall identify the type, location, and cost of the
13 housing, and (iv) the type and extent of relocation
14 assistance to be provided.
15 (6) On and after November 1, 1999, the housing
16 impact study required by paragraph (5) shall be
17 incorporated in the redevelopment plan for the
18 redevelopment project area.
19 (7) On and after November 1, 1999, no redevelopment
20 plan shall be adopted, nor an existing plan amended, nor
21 shall residential housing that is occupied by households
22 of low-income and very low-income persons in currently
23 existing redevelopment project areas be removed after
24 November 1, 1999 unless the redevelopment plan provides,
25 with respect to inhabited housing units that are to be
26 removed for households of low-income and very low-income
27 persons, affordable housing and relocation assistance not
28 less than that which would be provided under the federal
29 Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
30 Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 and the regulations
31 under that Act, including the eligibility criteria.
32 Affordable housing may be either existing or newly
33 constructed housing. For purposes of this paragraph (7),
34 "low-income households", "very low-income households",
SB1854 Enrolled -305- LRB9215370EGfg
1 and "affordable housing" have the meanings set forth in
2 the Illinois Affordable Housing Act. The municipality
3 shall make a good faith effort to ensure that this
4 affordable housing is located in or near the
5 redevelopment project area within the municipality.
6 (8) On and after November 1, 1999, if, after the
7 adoption of the redevelopment plan for the redevelopment
8 project area, any municipality desires to amend its
9 redevelopment plan to remove more inhabited residential
10 units than specified in its original redevelopment plan,
11 that increase in the number of units to be removed shall
12 be deemed to be a change in the nature of the
13 redevelopment plan as to require compliance with the
14 procedures in this Act pertaining to the initial approval
15 of a redevelopment plan.
16 (9) For redevelopment project areas designated
17 prior to November 1, 1999, the redevelopment plan may be
18 amended without further joint review board meeting or
19 hearing, provided that the municipality shall give notice
20 of any such changes by mail to each affected taxing
21 district and registrant on the interested party registry,
22 to authorize the municipality to expend tax increment
23 revenues for redevelopment project costs defined by
24 paragraphs (5) and (7.5), subparagraphs (E) and (F) of
25 paragraph (11), and paragraph (11.5) of subsection (q) of
26 Section 11-74.4-3, so long as the changes do not increase

28 in the redevelopment plan by more than 5% after
29 adjustment for inflation from the date the plan was
30 adopted.

22 prior to November 1, 1999 or (ii) the municipality makes
23 a reasonable determination in the redevelopment plan,

19 increased costs attributable to assisted housing units
20 located within the redevelopment project area for which
21 the developer or redeveloper receives financial

22 allocation fund;
23 (D) the total of such interest payments paid

32 the financing of rehabilitated or new housing units
33 for low-income households and very low-income
34 households, as defined in Section 3 of the Illinois
SB1854 Enrolled -315- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Affordable Housing Act. The percentage of 75% shall

3 of paragraph (11).
4 (F) Instead of the eligible costs provided by
5 subparagraphs (B) and (D) of paragraph (11), as

8 the municipality may pay from tax increment revenues
9 up to 50% of the cost of construction of new housing
10 units to be occupied by low-income households and
11 very low-income households as defined in Section 3
12 of the Illinois Affordable Housing Act. The cost of
13 construction of those units may be derived from the
14 proceeds of bonds issued by the municipality under
15 this Act or other constitutional or statutory
16 authority or from other sources of municipal revenue
17 that may be reimbursed from tax increment revenues
18 or the proceeds of bonds issued to finance the

22 eligible cost for the construction, renovation, and
23 rehabilitation of all low and very low-income
24 housing units, as defined in Section 3 of the
25 Illinois Affordable Housing Act, within the
26 redevelopment project area. If the low and very
27 low-income units are part of a residential
28 redevelopment project that includes units not
29 affordable to low and very low-income households,
30 only the low and very low-income units shall be
31 eligible for benefits under subparagraph (F) of
32 paragraph (11). The standards for maintaining the
33 occupancy by low-income households and very
34 low-income households, as defined in Section 3 of
SB1854 Enrolled -316- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the Illinois Affordable Housing Act, of those units
2 constructed with eligible costs made available under
3 the provisions of this subparagraph (F) of paragraph
4 (11) shall be established by guidelines adopted by
5 the municipality. The responsibility for annually
6 documenting the initial occupancy of the units by
7 low-income households and very low-income
8 households, as defined in Section 3 of the Illinois
9 Affordable Housing Act, shall be that of the then
10 current owner of the property. For ownership units,
11 the guidelines will provide, at a minimum, for a
12 reasonable recapture of funds, or other appropriate
13 methods designed to preserve the original
14 affordability of the ownership units. For rental
15 units, the guidelines will provide, at a minimum,
16 for the affordability of rent to low and very
17 low-income households. As units become available,
18 they shall be rented to income-eligible tenants. The
19 municipality may modify these guidelines from time
20 to time; the guidelines, however, shall be in effect
21 for as long as tax increment revenue is being used
22 to pay for costs associated with the units or for
23 the retirement of bonds issued to finance the units
24 or for the life of the redevelopment project area,
25 whichever is later.
26 (11.5) If the redevelopment project area is located
27 within a municipality with a population of more than
28 100,000, the cost of day care services for children of
29 employees from low-income families working for businesses
30 located within the redevelopment project area and all or
31 a portion of the cost of operation of day care centers
32 established by redevelopment project area businesses to
33 serve employees from low-income families working in
34 businesses located in the redevelopment project area.
SB1854 Enrolled -317- LRB9215370EGfg
1 For the purposes of this paragraph, "low-income families"
2 means families whose annual income does not exceed 80% of
3 the municipal, county, or regional median income,
4 adjusted for family size, as the annual income and
5 municipal, county, or regional median income are
6 determined from time to time by the United States
7 Department of Housing and Urban Development.
8 (12) Unless explicitly stated herein the cost of
9 construction of new privately-owned buildings shall not
10 be an eligible redevelopment project cost.
11 (13) After November 1, 1999 (the effective date of
12 Public Act 91-478), none of the redevelopment project
13 costs enumerated in this subsection shall be eligible
14 redevelopment project costs if those costs would provide
15 direct financial support to a retail entity initiating
16 operations in the redevelopment project area while
17 terminating operations at another Illinois location
18 within 10 miles of the redevelopment project area but
19 outside the boundaries of the redevelopment project area
20 municipality. For purposes of this paragraph,
21 termination means a closing of a retail operation that is
22 directly related to the opening of the same operation or
23 like retail entity owned or operated by more than 50% of
24 the original ownership in a redevelopment project area,
25 but it does not mean closing an operation for reasons
26 beyond the control of the retail entity, as documented by
27 the retail entity, subject to a reasonable finding by the
28 municipality that the current location contained
29 inadequate space, had become economically obsolete, or
30 was no longer a viable location for the retailer or
31 serviceman.
32 If a special service area has been established pursuant
33 to the Special Service Area Tax Act or Special Service Area
34 Tax Law, then any tax increment revenues derived from the tax
SB1854 Enrolled -318- LRB9215370EGfg
1 imposed pursuant to the Special Service Area Tax Act or
2 Special Service Area Tax Law may be used within the
3 redevelopment project area for the purposes permitted by that
4 Act or Law as well as the purposes permitted by this Act.
5 (r) "State Sales Tax Boundary" means the redevelopment
6 project area or the amended redevelopment project area
7 boundaries which are determined pursuant to subsection (9) of
8 Section 11-74.4-8a of this Act. The Department of Revenue
9 shall certify pursuant to subsection (9) of Section
10 11-74.4-8a the appropriate boundaries eligible for the
11 determination of State Sales Tax Increment.
12 (s) "State Sales Tax Increment" means an amount equal to
13 the increase in the aggregate amount of taxes paid by
14 retailers and servicemen, other than retailers and servicemen
15 subject to the Public Utilities Act, on transactions at
16 places of business located within a State Sales Tax Boundary
17 pursuant to the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax
18 Act, the Service Use Tax Act, and the Service Occupation Tax
19 Act, except such portion of such increase that is paid into
20 the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, the Local
21 Government Distributive Fund, the Local Government Tax
22 Fund and the County and Mass Transit District Fund, for as
23 long as State participation exists, over and above the
24 Initial Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts
25 or the Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts for such taxes as
26 certified by the Department of Revenue and paid under those
27 Acts by retailers and servicemen on transactions at places of
28 business located within the State Sales Tax Boundary during
29 the base year which shall be the calendar year immediately
30 prior to the year in which the municipality adopted tax
31 increment allocation financing, less 3.0% of such amounts
32 generated under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Use Tax
33 Act and Service Use Tax Act and the Service Occupation Tax
34 Act, which sum shall be appropriated to the Department of
SB1854 Enrolled -319- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Revenue to cover its costs of administering and enforcing
2 this Section. For purposes of computing the aggregate amount
3 of such taxes for base years occurring prior to 1985, the
4 Department of Revenue shall compute the Initial Sales Tax
5 Amount for such taxes and deduct therefrom an amount equal to
6 4% of the aggregate amount of taxes per year for each year
7 the base year is prior to 1985, but not to exceed a total
8 deduction of 12%. The amount so determined shall be known as
9 the "Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amount". For purposes of
10 determining the State Sales Tax Increment the Department of
11 Revenue shall for each period subtract from the tax amounts
12 received from retailers and servicemen on transactions
13 located in the State Sales Tax Boundary, the certified
14 Initial Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts
15 or Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts for the Retailers'
16 Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax Act
17 and the Service Occupation Tax Act. For the State Fiscal
18 Year 1989 this calculation shall be made by utilizing the
19 calendar year 1987 to determine the tax amounts received. For
20 the State Fiscal Year 1990, this calculation shall be made by
21 utilizing the period from January 1, 1988, until September
22 30, 1988, to determine the tax amounts received from
23 retailers and servicemen, which shall have deducted therefrom
24 nine-twelfths of the certified Initial Sales Tax Amounts,
25 Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts or the Revised Initial
26 Sales Tax Amounts as appropriate. For the State Fiscal Year
27 1991, this calculation shall be made by utilizing the period
28 from October 1, 1988, until June 30, 1989, to determine the
29 tax amounts received from retailers and servicemen, which
30 shall have deducted therefrom nine-twelfths of the certified
31 Initial State Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax
32 Amounts or the Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts as
33 appropriate. For every State Fiscal Year thereafter, the
34 applicable period shall be the 12 months beginning July 1 and
SB1854 Enrolled -320- LRB9215370EGfg
1 ending on June 30, to determine the tax amounts received
2 which shall have deducted therefrom the certified Initial
3 Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts or the
4 Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts. Municipalities intending
5 to receive a distribution of State Sales Tax Increment must
6 report a list of retailers to the Department of Revenue by
7 October 31, 1988 and by July 31, of each year thereafter.
8 (t) "Taxing districts" means counties, townships, cities
9 and incorporated towns and villages, school, road, park,
10 sanitary, mosquito abatement, forest preserve, public health,
11 fire protection, river conservancy, tuberculosis sanitarium
12 and any other municipal corporations or districts with the
13 power to levy taxes.
14 (u) "Taxing districts' capital costs" means those costs
15 of taxing districts for capital improvements that are found
16 by the municipal corporate authorities to be necessary and
17 directly result from the redevelopment project.
18 (v) As used in subsection (a) of Section 11-74.4-3 of
19 this Act, "vacant land" means any parcel or combination of
20 parcels of real property without industrial, commercial, and
21 residential buildings which has not been used for commercial
22 agricultural purposes within 5 years prior to the designation
23 of the redevelopment project area, unless the parcel is
24 included in an industrial park conservation area or the
25 parcel has been subdivided; provided that if the parcel was
26 part of a larger tract that has been divided into 3 or more
27 smaller tracts that were accepted for recording during the
28 period from 1950 to 1990, then the parcel shall be deemed to
29 have been subdivided, and all proceedings and actions of the
30 municipality taken in that connection with respect to any
31 previously approved or designated redevelopment project area
32 or amended redevelopment project area are hereby validated
33 and hereby declared to be legally sufficient for all purposes
34 of this Act. For purposes of this Section and only for land
SB1854 Enrolled -321- LRB9215370EGfg
1 subject to the subdivision requirements of the Plat Act, land
2 is subdivided when the original plat of the proposed
3 Redevelopment Project Area or relevant portion thereof has
4 been properly certified, acknowledged, approved, and recorded
5 or filed in accordance with the Plat Act and a preliminary
6 plat, if any, for any subsequent phases of the proposed
7 Redevelopment Project Area or relevant portion thereof has
8 been properly approved and filed in accordance with the
9 applicable ordinance of the municipality.
10 (w) "Annual Total Increment" means the sum of each
11 municipality's annual Net Sales Tax Increment and each
12 municipality's annual Net Utility Tax Increment. The ratio
13 of the Annual Total Increment of each municipality to the
14 Annual Total Increment for all municipalities, as most
15 recently calculated by the Department, shall determine the
16 proportional shares of the Illinois Tax Increment Fund to be
17 distributed to each municipality.

22 (65 ILCS 5/11-74.4-7) (from Ch. 24, par. 11-74.4-7)
23 Sec. 11-74.4-7. Obligations secured by the special tax
24 allocation fund set forth in Section 11-74.4-8 for the
25 redevelopment project area may be issued to provide for
26 redevelopment project costs. Such obligations, when so
27 issued, shall be retired in the manner provided in the
28 ordinance authorizing the issuance of such obligations by the
29 receipts of taxes levied as specified in Section 11-74.4-9
30 against the taxable property included in the area, by
31 revenues as specified by Section 11-74.4-8a and other revenue
32 designated by the municipality. A municipality may in the
33 ordinance pledge all or any part of the funds in and to be
SB1854 Enrolled -322- LRB9215370EGfg
1 deposited in the special tax allocation fund created pursuant
2 to Section 11-74.4-8 to the payment of the redevelopment
3 project costs and obligations. Any pledge of funds in the
4 special tax allocation fund shall provide for distribution to
5 the taxing districts and to the Illinois Department of
6 Revenue of moneys not required, pledged, earmarked, or
7 otherwise designated for payment and securing of the
8 obligations and anticipated redevelopment project costs and
9 such excess funds shall be calculated annually and deemed to
10 be "surplus" funds. In the event a municipality only applies
11 or pledges a portion of the funds in the special tax
12 allocation fund for the payment or securing of anticipated
13 redevelopment project costs or of obligations, any such funds
14 remaining in the special tax allocation fund after complying
15 with the requirements of the application or pledge, shall
16 also be calculated annually and deemed "surplus" funds. All
17 surplus funds in the special tax allocation fund shall be
18 distributed annually within 180 days after the close of the
19 municipality's fiscal year by being paid by the municipal
20 treasurer to the County Collector, to the Department of
21 Revenue and to the municipality in direct proportion to the
22 tax incremental revenue received as a result of an increase
23 in the equalized assessed value of property in the
24 redevelopment project area, tax incremental revenue received
25 from the State and tax incremental revenue received from the
26 municipality, but not to exceed as to each such source the
27 total incremental revenue received from that source. The
28 County Collector shall thereafter make distribution to the
29 respective taxing districts in the same manner and proportion
30 as the most recent distribution by the county collector to
31 the affected districts of real property taxes from real
32 property in the redevelopment project area.
33 Without limiting the foregoing in this Section, the
34 municipality may in addition to obligations secured by the
SB1854 Enrolled -323- LRB9215370EGfg
1 special tax allocation fund pledge for a period not greater
2 than the term of the obligations towards payment of such
3 obligations any part or any combination of the following: (a)
4 net revenues of all or part of any redevelopment project; (b)
5 taxes levied and collected on any or all property in the
6 municipality; (c) the full faith and credit of the
7 municipality; (d) a mortgage on part or all of the
8 redevelopment project; or (e) any other taxes or anticipated
9 receipts that the municipality may lawfully pledge.
10 Such obligations may be issued in one or more series
11 bearing interest at such rate or rates as the corporate
12 authorities of the municipality shall determine by ordinance.
13 Such obligations shall bear such date or dates, mature at
14 such time or times not exceeding 20 years from their
15 respective dates, be in such denomination, carry such
16 registration privileges, be executed in such manner, be
17 payable in such medium of payment at such place or places,
18 contain such covenants, terms and conditions, and be subject
19 to redemption as such ordinance shall provide. Obligations
20 issued pursuant to this Act may be sold at public or private
21 sale at such price as shall be determined by the corporate
22 authorities of the municipalities. No referendum approval of
23 the electors shall be required as a condition to the issuance
24 of obligations pursuant to this Division except as provided
25 in this Section.
26 In the event the municipality authorizes issuance of
27 obligations pursuant to the authority of this Division
28 secured by the full faith and credit of the municipality,
29 which obligations are other than obligations which may be
30 issued under home rule powers provided by Article VII,
31 Section 6 of the Illinois Constitution, or pledges taxes
32 pursuant to (b) or (c) of the second paragraph of this
33 section, the ordinance authorizing the issuance of such
34 obligations or pledging such taxes shall be published within
SB1854 Enrolled -324- LRB9215370EGfg
1 10 days after such ordinance has been passed in one or more
2 newspapers, with general circulation within such
3 municipality. The publication of the ordinance shall be
4 accompanied by a notice of (1) the specific number of voters
5 required to sign a petition requesting the question of the
6 issuance of such obligations or pledging taxes to be
7 submitted to the electors; (2) the time in which such
8 petition must be filed; and (3) the date of the prospective
9 referendum. The municipal clerk shall provide a petition
10 form to any individual requesting one.
11 If no petition is filed with the municipal clerk, as
12 hereinafter provided in this Section, within 30 days after
13 the publication of the ordinance, the ordinance shall be in
14 effect. But, if within that 30 day period a petition is
15 filed with the municipal clerk, signed by electors in the
16 municipality numbering 10% or more of the number of
17 registered voters in the municipality, asking that the
18 question of issuing obligations using full faith and credit
19 of the municipality as security for the cost of paying for
20 redevelopment project costs, or of pledging taxes for the
21 payment of such obligations, or both, be submitted to the
22 electors of the municipality, the corporate authorities of
23 the municipality shall call a special election in the manner
24 provided by law to vote upon that question, or, if a general,
25 State or municipal election is to be held within a period of
26 not less than 30 or more than 90 days from the date such
27 petition is filed, shall submit the question at the next
28 general, State or municipal election. If it appears upon the
29 canvass of the election by the corporate authorities that a
30 majority of electors voting upon the question voted in favor
31 thereof, the ordinance shall be in effect, but if a majority
32 of the electors voting upon the question are not in favor
33 thereof, the ordinance shall not take effect.
34 The ordinance authorizing the obligations may provide
SB1854 Enrolled -325- LRB9215370EGfg
1 that the obligations shall contain a recital that they are
2 issued pursuant to this Division, which recital shall be
3 conclusive evidence of their validity and of the regularity
4 of their issuance.
5 In the event the municipality authorizes issuance of
6 obligations pursuant to this Section secured by the full
7 faith and credit of the municipality, the ordinance
8 authorizing the obligations may provide for the levy and
9 collection of a direct annual tax upon all taxable property
10 within the municipality sufficient to pay the principal
11 thereof and interest thereon as it matures, which levy may be
12 in addition to and exclusive of the maximum of all other
13 taxes authorized to be levied by the municipality, which
14 levy, however, shall be abated to the extent that monies from
15 other sources are available for payment of the obligations
16 and the municipality certifies the amount of said monies
17 available to the county clerk.
18 A certified copy of such ordinance shall be filed with
19 the county clerk of each county in which any portion of the
20 municipality is situated, and shall constitute the authority
21 for the extension and collection of the taxes to be deposited
22 in the special tax allocation fund.
23 A municipality may also issue its obligations to refund
24 in whole or in part, obligations theretofore issued by such
25 municipality under the authority of this Act, whether at or
26 prior to maturity, provided however, that the last maturity
27 of the refunding obligations shall not be expressed to mature
28 later than December 31 of the year in which the payment to
29 the municipal treasurer as provided in subsection (b) of
30 Section 11-74.4-8 of this Act is to be made with respect to

21 Section 36. The Regional Transportation Authority Act is
22 amended by changing Section 4.03 as follows:
23 (70 ILCS 3615/4.03) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 704.03)
24 Sec. 4.03. Taxes.
25 (a) In order to carry out any of the powers or purposes
26 of the Authority, the Board may by ordinance adopted with the
27 concurrence of 9 of the then Directors, impose throughout the
28 metropolitan region any or all of the taxes provided in this
29 Section. Except as otherwise provided in this Act, taxes
30 imposed under this Section and civil penalties imposed
31 incident thereto shall be collected and enforced by the State
32 Department of Revenue. The Department shall have the power to
SB1854 Enrolled -345- LRB9215370EGfg
1 administer and enforce the taxes and to determine all rights
2 for refunds for erroneous payments of the taxes.
3 (b) The Board may impose a public transportation tax
4 upon all persons engaged in the metropolitan region in the
5 business of selling at retail motor fuel for operation of
6 motor vehicles upon public highways. The tax shall be at a
7 rate not to exceed 5% of the gross receipts from the sales of
8 motor fuel in the course of the business. As used in this
9 Act, the term "motor fuel" shall have the same meaning as in
10 the Motor Fuel Tax Law Act. The Board may provide for
11 details of the tax. The provisions of any tax shall conform,
12 as closely as may be practicable, to the provisions of the
13 Municipal Retailers Occupation Tax Act, including without
14 limitation, conformity to penalties with respect to the tax
15 imposed and as to the powers of the State Department of
16 Revenue to promulgate and enforce rules and regulations
17 relating to the administration and enforcement of the
18 provisions of the tax imposed, except that reference in the
19 Act to any municipality shall refer to the Authority and the
20 tax shall be imposed only with regard to receipts from sales
21 of motor fuel in the metropolitan region, at rates as limited
22 by this Section.
23 (c) In connection with the tax imposed under paragraph
24 (b) of this Section the Board may impose a tax upon the
25 privilege of using in the metropolitan region motor fuel for
26 the operation of a motor vehicle upon public highways, the
27 tax to be at a rate not in excess of the rate of tax imposed
28 under paragraph (b) of this Section. The Board may provide
29 for details of the tax.
30 (d) The Board may impose a motor vehicle parking tax
31 upon the privilege of parking motor vehicles at off-street
32 parking facilities in the metropolitan region at which a fee
33 is charged, and may provide for reasonable classifications in
34 and exemptions to the tax, for administration and enforcement
SB1854 Enrolled -346- LRB9215370EGfg
1 thereof and for civil penalties and refunds thereunder and
2 may provide criminal penalties thereunder, the maximum
3 penalties not to exceed the maximum criminal penalties
4 provided in the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. The Authority
5 may collect and enforce the tax itself or by contract with
6 any unit of local government. The State Department of
7 Revenue shall have no responsibility for the collection and
8 enforcement unless the Department agrees with the Authority
9 to undertake the collection and enforcement. As used in this
10 paragraph, the term "parking facility" means a parking area
11 or structure having parking spaces for more than 2 vehicles
12 at which motor vehicles are permitted to park in return for
13 an hourly, daily, or other periodic fee, whether publicly or
14 privately owned, but does not include parking spaces on a
15 public street, the use of which is regulated by parking
16 meters.
17 (e) The Board may impose a Regional Transportation
18 Authority Retailers' Occupation Tax upon all persons engaged
19 in the business of selling tangible personal property at
20 retail in the metropolitan region. In Cook County the tax
21 rate shall be 1% of the gross receipts from sales of food for
22 human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises
23 where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, soft drinks
24 and food that has been prepared for immediate consumption)
25 and prescription and nonprescription medicines, drugs,
26 medical appliances and insulin, urine testing materials,
27 syringes and needles used by diabetics, and 3/4% of the gross
28 receipts from other taxable sales made in the course of that
29 business. In DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties,
30 the tax rate shall be 1/4% of the gross receipts from all
31 taxable sales made in the course of that business. The tax
32 imposed under this Section and all civil penalties that may
33 be assessed as an incident thereof shall be collected and
34 enforced by the State Department of Revenue. The Department
SB1854 Enrolled -347- LRB9215370EGfg
1 shall have full power to administer and enforce this Section;
2 to collect all taxes and penalties so collected in the manner
3 hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights to credit
4 memoranda arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax
5 or penalty hereunder. In the administration of, and
6 compliance with this Section, the Department and persons who
7 are subject to this Section shall have the same rights,
8 remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, and be
9 subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations,
10 penalties, exclusions, exemptions and definitions of terms,
11 and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in
12 Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 2 through 2-65
13 (in respect to all provisions therein other than the State
14 rate of tax), 2c, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes
15 and penalties collected), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g,
16 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13
17 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the
18 Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those
19 provisions were set forth herein.
20 Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority
21 granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their
22 seller's tax liability hereunder by separately stating the
23 tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in
24 combination in a single amount with State taxes that sellers
25 are required to collect under the Use Tax Act, under any
26 bracket schedules the Department may prescribe.
27 Whenever the Department determines that a refund should
28 be made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a
29 credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State
30 Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the
31 amount specified, and to the person named, in the
32 notification from the Department. The refund shall be paid
33 by the State Treasurer out of the Regional Transportation
34 Authority tax fund established under paragraph (n) of this
SB1854 Enrolled -348- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Section.
2 If a tax is imposed under this subsection (e), a tax
3 shall also be imposed under subsections (f) and (g) of this
4 Section.
5 For the purpose of determining whether a tax authorized
6 under this Section is applicable, a retail sale by a producer
7 of coal or other mineral mined in Illinois, is a sale at
8 retail at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in
9 Illinois is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not
10 apply to coal or other mineral when it is delivered or
11 shipped by the seller to the purchaser at a point outside
12 Illinois so that the sale is exempt under the Federal
13 Constitution as a sale in interstate or foreign commerce.
14 Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize
15 the Regional Transportation Authority to impose a tax upon
16 the privilege of engaging in any business that under the
17 Constitution of the United States may not be made the subject
18 of taxation by this State.
19 (f) If a tax has been imposed under paragraph (e), a
20 Regional Transportation Authority Service Occupation Tax
21 shall also be imposed upon all persons engaged, in the
22 metropolitan region in the business of making sales of
23 service, who as an incident to making the sales of service,
24 transfer tangible personal property within the metropolitan
25 region, either in the form of tangible personal property or
26 in the form of real estate as an incident to a sale of
27 service. In Cook County, the tax rate shall be: (1) 1% of
28 the serviceman's cost price of food prepared for immediate
29 consumption and transferred incident to a sale of service
30 subject to the service occupation tax by an entity licensed
31 under the Hospital Licensing Act or the Nursing Home Care Act
32 that is located in the metropolitan region; (2) 1% of the
33 selling price of food for human consumption that is to be
34 consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than
SB1854 Enrolled -349- LRB9215370EGfg
1 alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and food that has been
2 prepared for immediate consumption) and prescription and
3 nonprescription medicines, drugs, medical appliances and
4 insulin, urine testing materials, syringes and needles used
5 by diabetics; and (3) 3/4% of the selling price from other
6 taxable sales of tangible personal property transferred. In
7 DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties the rate shall
8 be 1/4% of the selling price of all tangible personal
9 property transferred.
10 The tax imposed under this paragraph and all civil
11 penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall
12 be collected and enforced by the State Department of Revenue.
13 The Department shall have full power to administer and
14 enforce this paragraph; to collect all taxes and penalties
15 due hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties collected in
16 the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights
17 to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous
18 payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the administration
19 of and compliance with this paragraph, the Department and
20 persons who are subject to this paragraph shall have the same
21 rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties,
22 and be subject to the same conditions, restrictions,
23 limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions and
24 definitions of terms, and employ the same modes of procedure,
25 as are prescribed in Sections 1a-1, 2, 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in
26 respect to all provisions therein other than the State rate
27 of tax), 4 (except that the reference to the State shall be
28 to the Authority), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to
29 which the tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that
30 Section 8 shall be the Authority), 9 (except as to the
31 disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and except that
32 the returned merchandise credit for this tax may not be taken
33 against any State tax), 10, 11, 12 (except the reference
34 therein to Section 2b of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act),
SB1854 Enrolled -350- LRB9215370EGfg
1 13 (except that any reference to the State shall mean the
2 Authority), the first paragraph of Section 15, 16, 17, 18, 19
3 and 20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of
4 the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those
5 provisions were set forth herein.
6 Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority
7 granted in this paragraph may reimburse themselves for their
8 serviceman's tax liability hereunder by separately stating
9 the tax as an additional charge, that charge may be stated in
10 combination in a single amount with State tax that servicemen
11 are authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax Act,
12 under any bracket schedules the Department may prescribe.
13 Whenever the Department determines that a refund should
14 be made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing
15 a credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State
16 Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the
17 amount specified, and to the person named in the notification
18 from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State
19 Treasurer out of the Regional Transportation Authority tax
20 fund established under paragraph (n) of this Section.
21 Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to authorize
22 the Authority to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging
23 in any business that under the Constitution of the United
24 States may not be made the subject of taxation by the State.
25 (g) If a tax has been imposed under paragraph (e), a tax
26 shall also be imposed upon the privilege of using in the
27 metropolitan region, any item of tangible personal property
28 that is purchased outside the metropolitan region at retail
29 from a retailer, and that is titled or registered with an
30 agency of this State's government. In Cook County the tax
31 rate shall be 3/4% of the selling price of the tangible
32 personal property, as "selling price" is defined in the Use
33 Tax Act. In DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will counties
34 the tax rate shall be 1/4% of the selling price of the
SB1854 Enrolled -351- LRB9215370EGfg
1 tangible personal property, as "selling price" is defined in
2 the Use Tax Act. The tax shall be collected from persons
3 whose Illinois address for titling or registration purposes
4 is given as being in the metropolitan region. The tax shall
5 be collected by the Department of Revenue for the Regional
6 Transportation Authority. The tax must be paid to the State,
7 or an exemption determination must be obtained from the
8 Department of Revenue, before the title or certificate of
9 registration for the property may be issued. The tax or proof
10 of exemption may be transmitted to the Department by way of
11 the State agency with which, or the State officer with whom,
12 the tangible personal property must be titled or registered
13 if the Department and the State agency or State officer
14 determine that this procedure will expedite the processing of
15 applications for title or registration.
16 The Department shall have full power to administer and
17 enforce this paragraph; to collect all taxes, penalties and
18 interest due hereunder; to dispose of taxes, penalties and
19 interest collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and to
20 determine all rights to credit memoranda or refunds arising
21 on account of the erroneous payment of tax, penalty or
22 interest hereunder. In the administration of and compliance
23 with this paragraph, the Department and persons who are
24 subject to this paragraph shall have the same rights,
25 remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, and be
26 subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations,
27 penalties, exclusions, exemptions and definitions of terms
28 and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in
29 Sections 2 (except the definition of "retailer maintaining a
30 place of business in this State"), 3 through 3-80 (except
31 provisions pertaining to the State rate of tax, and except
32 provisions concerning collection or refunding of the tax by
33 retailers), 4, 11, 12, 12a, 14, 15, 19 (except the portions
34 pertaining to claims by retailers and except the last
SB1854 Enrolled -352- LRB9215370EGfg
1 paragraph concerning refunds), 20, 21 and 22 of the Use Tax
2 Act, and are not inconsistent with this paragraph, as fully
3 as if those provisions were set forth herein.
4 Whenever the Department determines that a refund should
5 be made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing
6 a credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State
7 Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the
8 amount specified, and to the person named in the notification
9 from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State
10 Treasurer out of the Regional Transportation Authority tax
11 fund established under paragraph (n) of this Section.
12 (h) The Authority may impose a replacement vehicle tax
13 of $50 on any passenger car as defined in Section 1-157 of
14 the Illinois Vehicle Code purchased within the metropolitan
15 region by or on behalf of an insurance company to replace a
16 passenger car of an insured person in settlement of a total
17 loss claim. The tax imposed may not become effective before
18 the first day of the month following the passage of the
19 ordinance imposing the tax and receipt of a certified copy of
20 the ordinance by the Department of Revenue. The Department
21 of Revenue shall collect the tax for the Authority in
22 accordance with Sections 3-2002 and 3-2003 of the Illinois
23 Vehicle Code.
24 The Department shall immediately pay over to the State
25 Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, all taxes collected
26 hereunder. On or before the 25th day of each calendar month,
27 the Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller
28 the disbursement of stated sums of money to the Authority.
29 The amount to be paid to the Authority shall be the amount
30 collected hereunder during the second preceding calendar
31 month by the Department, less any amount determined by the
32 Department to be necessary for the payment of refunds.
33 Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller of the
34 disbursement certification to the Authority provided for in
SB1854 Enrolled -353- LRB9215370EGfg
1 this Section to be given to the Comptroller by the
2 Department, the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be
3 drawn for that amount in accordance with the directions
4 contained in the certification.
5 (i) The Board may not impose any other taxes except as

9 Occupation Tax Act or under the Service Occupation Tax Act
10 shall permit the registrant to engage in a business that is
11 taxed under the tax imposed under paragraphs (b), (e), (f) or
12 (g) of this Section and no additional registration shall be
13 required under the tax. A certificate issued under the Use
14 Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act shall be applicable with
15 regard to any tax imposed under paragraph (c) of this
16 Section.
17 (k) The provisions of any tax imposed under paragraph
18 (c) of this Section shall conform as closely as may be
19 practicable to the provisions of the Use Tax Act, including
20 without limitation conformity as to penalties with respect to
21 the tax imposed and as to the powers of the State Department
22 of Revenue to promulgate and enforce rules and regulations
23 relating to the administration and enforcement of the
24 provisions of the tax imposed. The taxes shall be imposed
25 only on use within the metropolitan region and at rates as
26 provided in the paragraph.
27 (l) The Board in imposing any tax as provided in
28 paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section, shall, after seeking
29 the advice of the State Department of Revenue, provide means
30 for retailers, users or purchasers of motor fuel for purposes
31 other than those with regard to which the taxes may be
32 imposed as provided in those paragraphs to receive refunds of
33 taxes improperly paid, which provisions may be at variance
34 with the refund provisions as applicable under the Municipal
SB1854 Enrolled -354- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Retailers Occupation Tax Act. The State Department of
2 Revenue may provide for certificates of registration for
3 users or purchasers of motor fuel for purposes other than
4 those with regard to which taxes may be imposed as provided
5 in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section to facilitate the
6 reporting and nontaxability of the exempt sales or uses.
7 (m) Any ordinance imposing or discontinuing any tax
8 under this Section shall be adopted and a certified copy
9 thereof filed with the Department on or before June 1,
10 whereupon the Department of Revenue shall proceed to
11 administer and enforce this Section on behalf of the Regional

13 such adoption and filing. Beginning January 1, 1992, an
14 ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing the tax
15 hereunder shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed

25 distribution from the Regional Transportation Authority
26 Occupation and Use Tax Replacement Fund. The distribution
27 made in July 1992 and each year thereafter under this
28 paragraph and the preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the
29 amount allocated and disbursed under this paragraph in the
30 preceding calendar year. The Department of Revenue shall
31 prepare and certify to the Comptroller for disbursement the
32 allocations made in accordance with this paragraph.
33 (o) Failure to adopt a budget ordinance or otherwise to
34 comply with Section 4.01 of this Act or to adopt a Five-year
SB1854 Enrolled -356- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Program or otherwise to comply with paragraph (b) of Section

6 (c) and (d) of this Section be in effect at the same time as
7 any retailers' occupation, use or service occupation tax
8 authorized under paragraphs (e), (f) and (g) of this Section
9 is in effect.
10 Any taxes imposed under the authority provided in
11 paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) shall remain in effect only until
12 the time as any tax authorized by paragraphs (e), (f) or (g)
13 of this Section are imposed and becomes effective. Once any
14 tax authorized by paragraphs (e), (f) or (g) is imposed the
15 Board may not reimpose taxes as authorized in paragraphs (b),

31 Sec. 1D-1. Block grant funding.
32 (a) For fiscal year 1996 and each fiscal year
SB1854 Enrolled -357- LRB9215370EGfg
1 thereafter, the State Board of Education shall award to a
2 school district having a population exceeding 500,000
3 inhabitants a general education block grant and an
4 educational services block grant, determined as provided in
5 this Section, in lieu of distributing to the district
6 separate State funding for the programs described in
7 subsections (b) and (c). The provisions of this Section,
8 however, do not apply to any federal funds that the district
9 is entitled to receive. In accordance with Section 2-3.32,
10 all block grants are subject to an audit. Therefore, block
11 grant receipts and block grant expenditures shall be recorded
12 to the appropriate fund code for the designated block grant.
13 (b) The general education block grant shall include the
14 following programs: REI Initiative, Summer Bridges, Preschool
15 At Risk, K-6 Comprehensive Arts, School Improvement Support,
16 Urban Education, Scientific Literacy, Substance Abuse
17 Prevention, Second Language Planning, Staff Development,
18 Outcomes and Assessment, K-6 Reading Improvement, Truants'
19 Optional Education, Hispanic Programs, Agriculture Education,
20 Gifted Education, Parental Education, Prevention Initiative,
21 Report Cards, and Criminal Background Investigations.
22 Notwithstanding any other provision of law, all amounts paid
23 under the general education block grant from State
24 appropriations to a school district in a city having a
25 population exceeding 500,000 inhabitants shall be
26 appropriated and expended by the board of that district for
27 any of the programs included in the block grant or any of the
28 board's lawful purposes.
29 (c) The educational services block grant shall include
30 the following programs: Bilingual, Regular and Vocational
31 Transportation, State Lunch and Free Breakfast Program,
32 Special Education (Personnel, Extraordinary, Transportation,
33 Orphanage, Private Tuition), Summer School, Educational
34 Service Centers, and Administrator's Academy. This
SB1854 Enrolled -358- LRB9215370EGfg
1 subsection (c) does not relieve the district of its
2 obligation to provide the services required under a program
3 that is included within the educational services block grant.
4 It is the intention of the General Assembly in enacting the
5 provisions of this subsection (c) to relieve the district of
6 the administrative burdens that impede efficiency and
7 accompany single-program funding. The General Assembly
8 encourages the board to pursue mandate waivers pursuant to
9 Section 2-3.25g.
10 (d) For fiscal year 1996 and each fiscal year
11 thereafter, the amount of the district's block grants shall
12 be determined as follows: (i) with respect to each program
13 that is included within each block grant, the district shall
14 receive an amount equal to the same percentage of the current
15 fiscal year appropriation made for that program as the
16 percentage of the appropriation received by the district from
17 the 1995 fiscal year appropriation made for that program, and
18 (ii) the total amount that is due the district under the
19 block grant shall be the aggregate of the amounts that the
20 district is entitled to receive for the fiscal year with
21 respect to each program that is included within the block
22 grant that the State Board of Education shall award the
23 district under this Section for that fiscal year. In the
24 case of the Summer Bridges program, the amount of the
25 district's block grant shall be equal to 44% of the amount of
26 the current fiscal year appropriation made for that program.
27 (e) The district is not required to file any application
28 or other claim in order to receive the block grants to which
29 it is entitled under this Section. The State Board of
30 Education shall make payments to the district of amounts due
31 under the district's block grants on a schedule determined by
32 the State Board of Education.
33 (f) A school district to which this Section applies
34 shall report to the State Board of Education on its use of
SB1854 Enrolled -359- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the block grants in such form and detail as the State Board
2 of Education may specify.
3 (g) This paragraph provides for the treatment of block
4 grants under Article 1C for purposes of calculating the
5 amount of block grants for a district under this Section.
6 Those block grants under Article 1C IC are, for this purpose,
7 treated as included in the amount of appropriation for the
8 various programs set forth in paragraph (b) above. The
9 appropriation in each current fiscal year for each block
10 grant under Article 1C shall be treated for these purposes as
11 appropriations for the individual program included in that
12 block grant. The proportion of each block grant so allocated
13 to each such program included in it shall be the proportion
14 which the appropriation for that program was of all
15 appropriations for such purposes now in that block grant, in
16 fiscal 1995.

22 Sec. 18-8.05. Basis for apportionment of general State
23 financial aid and supplemental general State aid to the
24 common schools for the 1998-1999 and subsequent school years.
25 (A) General Provisions.
26 (1) The provisions of this Section apply to the
27 1998-1999 and subsequent school years. The system of general
28 State financial aid provided for in this Section is designed
29 to assure that, through a combination of State financial aid
30 and required local resources, the financial support provided
31 each pupil in Average Daily Attendance equals or exceeds a
32 prescribed per pupil Foundation Level. This formula approach
33 imputes a level of per pupil Available Local Resources and
SB1854 Enrolled -364- LRB9215370EGfg
1 provides for the basis to calculate a per pupil level of
2 general State financial aid that, when added to Available
3 Local Resources, equals or exceeds the Foundation Level. The
4 amount of per pupil general State financial aid for school
5 districts, in general, varies in inverse relation to
6 Available Local Resources. Per pupil amounts are based upon
7 each school district's Average Daily Attendance as that term
8 is defined in this Section.
9 (2) In addition to general State financial aid, school
10 districts with specified levels or concentrations of pupils
11 from low income households are eligible to receive
12 supplemental general State financial aid grants as provided
13 pursuant to subsection (H). The supplemental State aid grants
14 provided for school districts under subsection (H) shall be
15 appropriated for distribution to school districts as part of
16 the same line item in which the general State financial aid
17 of school districts is appropriated under this Section.
18 (3) To receive financial assistance under this Section,
19 school districts are required to file claims with the State
20 Board of Education, subject to the following requirements:
21 (a) Any school district which fails for any given
22 school year to maintain school as required by law, or to
23 maintain a recognized school is not eligible to file for
24 such school year any claim upon the Common School Fund.
25 In case of nonrecognition of one or more attendance
26 centers in a school district otherwise operating
27 recognized schools, the claim of the district shall be
28 reduced in the proportion which the Average Daily
29 Attendance in the attendance center or centers bear to
30 the Average Daily Attendance in the school district. A
31 "recognized school" means any public school which meets
32 the standards as established for recognition by the State
33 Board of Education. A school district or attendance
34 center not having recognition status at the end of a
SB1854 Enrolled -365- LRB9215370EGfg
1 school term is entitled to receive State aid payments due
2 upon a legal claim which was filed while it was
3 recognized.
4 (b) School district claims filed under this Section
5 are subject to Sections 18-9, 18-10, and 18-12, except as
6 otherwise provided in this Section.
7 (c) If a school district operates a full year
8 school under Section 10-19.1, the general State aid to
9 the school district shall be determined by the State
10 Board of Education in accordance with this Section as
11 near as may be applicable.
12 (d) (Blank).
13 (4) Except as provided in subsections (H) and (L), the
14 board of any district receiving any of the grants provided
15 for in this Section may apply those funds to any fund so
16 received for which that board is authorized to make
17 expenditures by law.
18 School districts are not required to exert a minimum
19 Operating Tax Rate in order to qualify for assistance under
20 this Section.
21 (5) As used in this Section the following terms, when
22 capitalized, shall have the meaning ascribed herein:
23 (a) "Average Daily Attendance": A count of pupil
24 attendance in school, averaged as provided for in
25 subsection (C) and utilized in deriving per pupil
26 financial support levels.
27 (b) "Available Local Resources": A computation of
28 local financial support, calculated on the basis of
29 Average Daily Attendance and derived as provided pursuant
30 to subsection (D).
31 (c) "Corporate Personal Property Replacement
32 Taxes": Funds paid to local school districts pursuant to
33 "An Act in relation to the abolition of ad valorem
34 personal property tax and the replacement of revenues
SB1854 Enrolled -366- LRB9215370EGfg
1 lost thereby, and amending and repealing certain Acts and
2 parts of Acts in connection therewith", certified August
3 14, 1979, as amended (Public Act 81-1st S.S.-1).
4 (d) "Foundation Level": A prescribed level of per
5 pupil financial support as provided for in subsection
6 (B).
7 (e) "Operating Tax Rate": All school district
8 property taxes extended for all purposes, except Bond and
9 Interest, Summer School, Rent, Capital Improvement, and
10 Vocational Education Building purposes.
11 (B) Foundation Level.
12 (1) The Foundation Level is a figure established by the
13 State representing the minimum level of per pupil financial
14 support that should be available to provide for the basic
15 education of each pupil in Average Daily Attendance. As set
16 forth in this Section, each school district is assumed to
17 exert a sufficient local taxing effort such that, in
18 combination with the aggregate of general State financial aid
19 provided the district, an aggregate of State and local
20 resources are available to meet the basic education needs of
21 pupils in the district.
22 (2) For the 1998-1999 school year, the Foundation Level
23 of support is $4,225. For the 1999-2000 school year, the
24 Foundation Level of support is $4,325. For the 2000-2001
25 school year, the Foundation Level of support is $4,425.
26 (3) For the 2001-2002 school year and each school year
27 thereafter, the Foundation Level of support is $4,560 or such
28 greater amount as may be established by law by the General
29 Assembly.
30 (C) Average Daily Attendance.
31 (1) For purposes of calculating general State aid
32 pursuant to subsection (E), an Average Daily Attendance
33 figure shall be utilized. The Average Daily Attendance
SB1854 Enrolled -367- LRB9215370EGfg
1 figure for formula calculation purposes shall be the monthly
2 average of the actual number of pupils in attendance of each
3 school district, as further averaged for the best 3 months of
4 pupil attendance for each school district. In compiling the
5 figures for the number of pupils in attendance, school
6 districts and the State Board of Education shall, for
7 purposes of general State aid funding, conform attendance
8 figures to the requirements of subsection (F).
9 (2) The Average Daily Attendance figures utilized in
10 subsection (E) shall be the requisite attendance data for the
11 school year immediately preceding the school year for which
12 general State aid is being calculated or the average of the
13 attendance data for the 3 preceding school years, whichever
14 is greater. The Average Daily Attendance figures utilized in
15 subsection (H) shall be the requisite attendance data for the
16 school year immediately preceding the school year for which
17 general State aid is being calculated.
18 (D) Available Local Resources.
19 (1) For purposes of calculating general State aid
20 pursuant to subsection (E), a representation of Available
21 Local Resources per pupil, as that term is defined and
22 determined in this subsection, shall be utilized. Available
23 Local Resources per pupil shall include a calculated dollar
24 amount representing local school district revenues from local
25 property taxes and from Corporate Personal Property
26 Replacement Taxes, expressed on the basis of pupils in
27 Average Daily Attendance.
28 (2) In determining a school district's revenue from
29 local property taxes, the State Board of Education shall
30 utilize the equalized assessed valuation of all taxable
31 property of each school district as of September 30 of the
32 previous year. The equalized assessed valuation utilized
33 shall be obtained and determined as provided in subsection
34 (G).
SB1854 Enrolled -368- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (3) For school districts maintaining grades kindergarten
2 through 12, local property tax revenues per pupil shall be
3 calculated as the product of the applicable equalized
4 assessed valuation for the district multiplied by 3.00%, and
5 divided by the district's Average Daily Attendance figure.
6 For school districts maintaining grades kindergarten through
7 8, local property tax revenues per pupil shall be calculated
8 as the product of the applicable equalized assessed valuation
9 for the district multiplied by 2.30%, and divided by the
10 district's Average Daily Attendance figure. For school
11 districts maintaining grades 9 through 12, local property tax
12 revenues per pupil shall be the applicable equalized assessed
13 valuation of the district multiplied by 1.05%, and divided by
14 the district's Average Daily Attendance figure.
15 (4) The Corporate Personal Property Replacement Taxes
16 paid to each school district during the calendar year 2 years
17 before the calendar year in which a school year begins,
18 divided by the Average Daily Attendance figure for that
19 district, shall be added to the local property tax revenues
20 per pupil as derived by the application of the immediately
21 preceding paragraph (3). The sum of these per pupil figures
22 for each school district shall constitute Available Local
23 Resources as that term is utilized in subsection (E) in the
24 calculation of general State aid.
25 (E) Computation of General State Aid.
26 (1) For each school year, the amount of general State
27 aid allotted to a school district shall be computed by the
28 State Board of Education as provided in this subsection.
29 (2) For any school district for which Available Local
30 Resources per pupil is less than the product of 0.93 times
31 the Foundation Level, general State aid for that district
32 shall be calculated as an amount equal to the Foundation
33 Level minus Available Local Resources, multiplied by the
34 Average Daily Attendance of the school district.
SB1854 Enrolled -369- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (3) For any school district for which Available Local
2 Resources per pupil is equal to or greater than the product
3 of 0.93 times the Foundation Level and less than the product
4 of 1.75 times the Foundation Level, the general State aid per
5 pupil shall be a decimal proportion of the Foundation Level
6 derived using a linear algorithm. Under this linear
7 algorithm, the calculated general State aid per pupil shall
8 decline in direct linear fashion from 0.07 times the
9 Foundation Level for a school district with Available Local
10 Resources equal to the product of 0.93 times the Foundation
11 Level, to 0.05 times the Foundation Level for a school
12 district with Available Local Resources equal to the product
13 of 1.75 times the Foundation Level. The allocation of
14 general State aid for school districts subject to this
15 paragraph 3 shall be the calculated general State aid per

17 the school district.
18 (4) For any school district for which Available Local
19 Resources per pupil equals or exceeds the product of 1.75
20 times the Foundation Level, the general State aid for the
21 school district shall be calculated as the product of $218
22 multiplied by the Average Daily Attendance of the school
23 district.
24 (5) The amount of general State aid allocated to a
25 school district for the 1999-2000 school year meeting the
26 requirements set forth in paragraph (4) of subsection (G)
27 shall be increased by an amount equal to the general State
28 aid that would have been received by the district for the
29 1998-1999 school year by utilizing the Extension Limitation
30 Equalized Assessed Valuation as calculated in paragraph (4)
31 of subsection (G) less the general State aid allotted for the
32 1998-1999 school year. This amount shall be deemed a one

5 school year that began in the preceding calendar year. The
6 attendance information so transmitted shall identify the
7 average daily attendance figures for each month of the school
8 year, except that any days of attendance in August shall be
9 added to the month of September and any days of attendance in
10 June shall be added to the month of May.
11 Except as otherwise provided in this Section, days of
12 attendance by pupils shall be counted only for sessions of
13 not less than 5 clock hours of school work per day under
14 direct supervision of: (i) teachers, or (ii) non-teaching
15 personnel or volunteer personnel when engaging in
16 non-teaching duties and supervising in those instances
17 specified in subsection (a) of Section 10-22.34 and paragraph

20 Days of attendance by tuition pupils shall be accredited
21 only to the districts that pay the tuition to a recognized
22 school.
23 (2) Days of attendance by pupils of less than 5 clock
24 hours of school shall be subject to the following provisions
25 in the compilation of Average Daily Attendance.
26 (a) Pupils regularly enrolled in a public school
27 for only a part of the school day may be counted on the
28 basis of 1/6 day for every class hour of instruction of
29 40 minutes or more attended pursuant to such enrollment,
30 unless a pupil is enrolled in a block-schedule format of
31 80 minutes or more of instruction, in which case the
32 pupil may be counted on the basis of the proportion of
33 minutes of school work completed each day to the minimum
34 number of minutes that school work is required to be held
SB1854 Enrolled -371- LRB9215370EGfg
1 that day.

8 counted as a day of attendance upon certification by the
9 regional superintendent, and approved by the State
10 Superintendent of Education to the extent that the
11 district has been forced to use daily multiple sessions.
12 (d) A session of 3 or more clock hours may be
13 counted as a day of attendance (1) when the remainder of
14 the school day or at least 2 hours in the evening of that
15 day is utilized for an in-service training program for
16 teachers, up to a maximum of 5 days per school year of
17 which a maximum of 4 days of such 5 days may be used for
18 parent-teacher conferences, provided a district conducts
19 an in-service training program for teachers which has
20 been approved by the State Superintendent of Education;
21 or, in lieu of 4 such days, 2 full days may be used, in
22 which event each such day may be counted as a day of
23 attendance; and (2) when days in addition to those
24 provided in item (1) are scheduled by a school pursuant
25 to its school improvement plan adopted under Article 34
26 or its revised or amended school improvement plan adopted
27 under Article 2, provided that (i) such sessions of 3 or
28 more clock hours are scheduled to occur at regular

6 in-service training programs, staff development
7 activities, or parent-teacher conferences may be
8 scheduled separately for different grade levels and
9 different attendance centers of the district.
10 (e) A session of not less than one clock hour of
11 teaching hospitalized or homebound pupils on-site or by
12 telephone to the classroom may be counted as 1/2 day of
13 attendance, however these pupils must receive 4 or more

15 of attendance.
16 (f) A session of at least 4 clock hours may be
17 counted as a day of attendance for first grade pupils,
18 and pupils in full day kindergartens, and a session of 2
19 or more hours may be counted as 1/2 day of attendance by
20 pupils in kindergartens which provide only 1/2 day of
21 attendance.
22 (g) For children with disabilities who are below
23 the age of 6 years and who cannot attend 2 or more clock

1 day, the pupil shall have the following day as a day
2 absent from school, unless the school district obtains
3 permission in writing from the State Superintendent of
4 Education. Attendance at kindergartens which provide for
5 a full day of attendance by each pupil shall be counted
6 the same as attendance by first grade pupils. Only the
7 first year of attendance in one kindergarten shall be
8 counted, except in case of children who entered the
9 kindergarten in their fifth year whose educational
10 development requires a second year of kindergarten as
11 determined under the rules and regulations of the State
12 Board of Education.
13 (G) Equalized Assessed Valuation Data.
14 (1) For purposes of the calculation of Available Local
15 Resources required pursuant to subsection (D), the State
16 Board of Education shall secure from the Department of
17 Revenue the value as equalized or assessed by the Department
18 of Revenue of all taxable property of every school district,
19 together with (i) the applicable tax rate used in extending
20 taxes for the funds of the district as of September 30 of the
21 previous year and (ii) the limiting rate for all school
22 districts subject to property tax extension limitations as
23 imposed under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law.
24 This equalized assessed valuation, as adjusted further by
25 the requirements of this subsection, shall be utilized in the
26 calculation of Available Local Resources.
27 (2) The equalized assessed valuation in paragraph (1)
28 shall be adjusted, as applicable, in the following manner:
29 (a) For the purposes of calculating State aid under
30 this Section, with respect to any part of a school
31 district within a redevelopment project area in respect
32 to which a municipality has adopted tax increment
33 allocation financing pursuant to the Tax Increment
34 Allocation Redevelopment Act, Sections 11-74.4-1 through
SB1854 Enrolled -374- LRB9215370EGfg
1 11-74.4-11 of the Illinois Municipal Code or the
2 Industrial Jobs Recovery Law, Sections 11-74.6-1 through
3 11-74.6-50 of the Illinois Municipal Code, no part of the
4 current equalized assessed valuation of real property
5 located in any such project area which is attributable to
6 an increase above the total initial equalized assessed
7 valuation of such property shall be used as part of the
8 equalized assessed valuation of the district, until such
9 time as all redevelopment project costs have been paid,
10 as provided in Section 11-74.4-8 of the Tax Increment
11 Allocation Redevelopment Act or in Section 11-74.6-35 of
12 the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law. For the purpose of the
13 equalized assessed valuation of the district, the total
14 initial equalized assessed valuation or the current
15 equalized assessed valuation, whichever is lower, shall
16 be used until such time as all redevelopment project
17 costs have been paid.
18 (b) The real property equalized assessed valuation
19 for a school district shall be adjusted by subtracting
20 from the real property value as equalized or assessed by
21 the Department of Revenue for the district an amount
22 computed by dividing the amount of any abatement of taxes
23 under Section 18-170 of the Property Tax Code by 3.00%
24 for a district maintaining grades kindergarten through
25 12, by 2.30% for a district maintaining grades
26 kindergarten through 8, or by 1.05% for a district
27 maintaining grades 9 through 12 and adjusted by an amount
28 computed by dividing the amount of any abatement of taxes
29 under subsection (a) of Section 18-165 of the Property
30 Tax Code by the same percentage rates for district type
31 as specified in this subparagraph (b).
32 (3) For the 1999-2000 school year and each school year
33 thereafter, if a school district meets all of the criteria of
34 this subsection (G)(3), the school district's Available Local
SB1854 Enrolled -375- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Resources shall be calculated under subsection (D) using the
2 district's Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation
3 as calculated under this subsection (G)(3).
4 For purposes of this subsection (G)(3) the following
5 terms shall have the following meanings:
6 "Budget Year": The school year for which general
7 State aid is calculated and awarded under subsection (E).
8 "Base Tax Year": The property tax levy year used to
9 calculate the Budget Year allocation of general State
10 aid.
11 "Preceding Tax Year": The property tax levy year
12 immediately preceding the Base Tax Year.
13 "Base Tax Year's Tax Extension": The product of the
14 equalized assessed valuation utilized by the County Clerk
15 in the Base Tax Year multiplied by the limiting rate as
16 calculated by the County Clerk and defined in the
17 Property Tax Extension Limitation Law.
18 "Preceding Tax Year's Tax Extension": The product of
19 the equalized assessed valuation utilized by the County
20 Clerk in the Preceding Tax Year multiplied by the
21 Operating Tax Rate as defined in subsection (A).
22 "Extension Limitation Ratio": A numerical ratio,
23 certified by the County Clerk, in which the numerator is
24 the Base Tax Year's Tax Extension and the denominator is
25 the Preceding Tax Year's Tax Extension.
26 "Operating Tax Rate": The operating tax rate as
27 defined in subsection (A).
28 If a school district is subject to property tax extension
29 limitations as imposed under the Property Tax Extension
30 Limitation Law, the State Board of Education shall calculate
31 the Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation of that
32 district. For the 1999-2000 school year, the Extension
33 Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation of a school district
34 as calculated by the State Board of Education shall be equal
SB1854 Enrolled -376- LRB9215370EGfg
1 to the product of the district's 1996 Equalized Assessed
2 Valuation and the district's Extension Limitation Ratio. For
3 the 2000-2001 school year and each school year thereafter,
4 the Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation of a
5 school district as calculated by the State Board of Education
6 shall be equal to the product of the Equalized Assessed
7 Valuation last used in the calculation of general State aid
8 and the district's Extension Limitation Ratio. If the
9 Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation of a school
10 district as calculated under this subsection (G)(3) is less
11 than the district's equalized assessed valuation as
12 calculated pursuant to subsections (G)(1) and (G)(2), then
13 for purposes of calculating the district's general State aid
14 for the Budget Year pursuant to subsection (E), that
15 Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation shall be
16 utilized to calculate the district's Available Local
17 Resources under subsection (D).
18 (4) For the purposes of calculating general State aid
19 for the 1999-2000 school year only, if a school district
20 experienced a triennial reassessment on the equalized
21 assessed valuation used in calculating its general State
22 financial aid apportionment for the 1998-1999 school year,
23 the State Board of Education shall calculate the Extension
24 Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation that would have been
25 used to calculate the district's 1998-1999 general State aid.
26 This amount shall equal the product of the equalized assessed
27 valuation used to calculate general State aid for the
28 1997-1998 school year and the district's Extension Limitation
29 Ratio. If the Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed
30 Valuation of the school district as calculated under this
31 paragraph (4) is less than the district's equalized assessed
32 valuation utilized in calculating the district's 1998-1999
33 general State aid allocation, then for purposes of
34 calculating the district's general State aid pursuant to
SB1854 Enrolled -377- LRB9215370EGfg
1 paragraph (5) of subsection (E), that Extension Limitation
2 Equalized Assessed Valuation shall be utilized to calculate
3 the district's Available Local Resources.
4 (5) For school districts having a majority of their
5 equalized assessed valuation in any county except Cook,
6 DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, or Will, if the amount of
7 general State aid allocated to the school district for the
8 1999-2000 school year under the provisions of subsection (E),
9 (H), and (J) of this Section is less than the amount of
10 general State aid allocated to the district for the 1998-1999
11 school year under these subsections, then the general State
12 aid of the district for the 1999-2000 school year only shall
13 be increased by the difference between these amounts. The
14 total payments made under this paragraph (5) shall not exceed
15 $14,000,000. Claims shall be prorated if they exceed
16 $14,000,000.
17 (H) Supplemental General State Aid.
18 (1) In addition to the general State aid a school
19 district is allotted pursuant to subsection (E), qualifying
20 school districts shall receive a grant, paid in conjunction
21 with a district's payments of general State aid, for
22 supplemental general State aid based upon the concentration
23 level of children from low-income households within the
24 school district. Supplemental State aid grants provided for
25 school districts under this subsection shall be appropriated
26 for distribution to school districts as part of the same line
27 item in which the general State financial aid of school
28 districts is appropriated under this Section. For purposes of
29 this subsection, the term "Low-Income Concentration Level"
30 shall be the low-income eligible pupil count from the most
31 recently available federal census divided by the Average
32 Daily Attendance of the school district. If, however, (i) the
33 percentage decrease from the 2 most recent federal censuses
34 in the low-income eligible pupil count of a high school
SB1854 Enrolled -378- LRB9215370EGfg
1 district with fewer than 400 students exceeds by 75% or more
2 the percentage change in the total low-income eligible pupil
3 count of contiguous elementary school districts, whose
4 boundaries are coterminous with the high school district, or
5 (ii) a high school district within 2 counties and serving 5
6 elementary school districts, whose boundaries are coterminous
7 with the high school district, has a percentage decrease from
8 the 2 most recent federal censuses in the low-income eligible
9 pupil count and there is a percentage increase in the total
10 low-income eligible pupil count of a majority of the
11 elementary school districts in excess of 50% from the 2 most
12 recent federal censuses, then the high school district's
13 low-income eligible pupil count from the earlier federal
14 census shall be the number used as the low-income eligible
15 pupil count for the high school district, for purposes of
16 this subsection (H). The changes made to this paragraph (1)
17 by Public Act 92-28 this amendatory Act of the 92nd General
18 Assembly shall apply to supplemental general State aid grants
19 paid in fiscal year 1999 and in each fiscal year thereafter
20 and to any State aid payments made in fiscal year 1994
21 through fiscal year 1998 pursuant to subsection 1(n) of
22 Section 18-8 of this Code (which was repealed on July 1,
23 1998), and any high school district that is affected by
24 Public Act 92-28 this amendatory Act of the 92nd General
25 Assembly is entitled to a recomputation of its supplemental
26 general State aid grant or State aid paid in any of those
27 fiscal years. This recomputation shall not be affected by
28 any other funding.
29 (2) Supplemental general State aid pursuant to this
30 subsection (H) shall be provided as follows for the

4 the grant for the 1998-1999 school year shall be $1,100
5 multiplied by the low income eligible pupil count.
6 (c) For any school district with a Low Income
7 Concentration Level of at least 50% and less than 60%,
8 the grant for the 1998-99 school year shall be $1,500
9 multiplied by the low income eligible pupil count.
10 (d) For any school district with a Low Income
11 Concentration Level of 60% or more, the grant for the
12 1998-99 school year shall be $1,900 multiplied by the low
13 income eligible pupil count.
14 (e) For the 1999-2000 school year, the per pupil
15 amount specified in subparagraphs (b), (c), and (d)

19 funds provided by the school district to the attendance
20 centers.
21 (d) Any funds made available under this subsection

33 district and for the previously existing districts for which
34 property is totally included within the new district. If the
SB1854 Enrolled -384- LRB9215370EGfg
1 computation on the basis of the previously existing districts
2 is greater, a supplementary payment equal to the difference
3 shall be made for the first 4 years of existence of the new
4 district.
5 (2) For a school district which annexes all of the
6 territory of one or more entire other school districts, for
7 the first year during which the change of boundaries
8 attributable to such annexation becomes effective for all
9 purposes as determined under Section 7-9 or 7A-8, the general
10 State aid and supplemental general State aid calculated under
11 this Section shall be computed for the annexing district as
12 constituted after the annexation and for the annexing and
13 each annexed district as constituted prior to the annexation;
14 and if the computation on the basis of the annexing and
15 annexed districts as constituted prior to the annexation is
16 greater, a supplementary payment equal to the difference
17 shall be made for the first 4 years of existence of the
18 annexing school district as constituted upon such annexation.
19 (3) For 2 or more school districts which annex all of
20 the territory of one or more entire other school districts,
21 and for 2 or more community unit districts which result upon
22 the division (pursuant to petition under Section 11A-2) of
23 one or more other unit school districts into 2 or more parts
24 and which together include all of the parts into which such
25 other unit school district or districts are so divided, for
26 the first year during which the change of boundaries
27 attributable to such annexation or division becomes effective
28 for all purposes as determined under Section 7-9 or 11A-10,
29 as the case may be, the general State aid and supplemental
30 general State aid calculated under this Section shall be
31 computed for each annexing or resulting district as
32 constituted after the annexation or division and for each
33 annexing and annexed district, or for each resulting and
34 divided district, as constituted prior to the annexation or
SB1854 Enrolled -385- LRB9215370EGfg
1 division; and if the aggregate of the general State aid and
2 supplemental general State aid as so computed for the
3 annexing or resulting districts as constituted after the
4 annexation or division is less than the aggregate of the
5 general State aid and supplemental general State aid as so
6 computed for the annexing and annexed districts, or for the
7 resulting and divided districts, as constituted prior to the
8 annexation or division, then a supplementary payment equal to
9 the difference shall be made and allocated between or among
10 the annexing or resulting districts, as constituted upon such
11 annexation or division, for the first 4 years of their
12 existence. The total difference payment shall be allocated
13 between or among the annexing or resulting districts in the
14 same ratio as the pupil enrollment from that portion of the
15 annexed or divided district or districts which is annexed to
16 or included in each such annexing or resulting district bears
17 to the total pupil enrollment from the entire annexed or
18 divided district or districts, as such pupil enrollment is
19 determined for the school year last ending prior to the date
20 when the change of boundaries attributable to the annexation
21 or division becomes effective for all purposes. The amount
22 of the total difference payment and the amount thereof to be
23 allocated to the annexing or resulting districts shall be
24 computed by the State Board of Education on the basis of
25 pupil enrollment and other data which shall be certified to
26 the State Board of Education, on forms which it shall provide
27 for that purpose, by the regional superintendent of schools
28 for each educational service region in which the annexing and
29 annexed districts, or resulting and divided districts are
30 located.
31 (3.5) Claims for financial assistance under this
32 subsection (I) shall not be recomputed except as expressly
33 provided under this Section.
34 (4) Any supplementary payment made under this subsection
SB1854 Enrolled -386- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (I) shall be treated as separate from all other payments made
2 pursuant to this Section.
3 (J) Supplementary Grants in Aid.
4 (1) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
5 Section, the amount of the aggregate general State aid in
6 combination with supplemental general State aid under this
7 Section for which each school district is eligible shall be
8 no less than the amount of the aggregate general State aid
9 entitlement that was received by the district under Section
10 18-8 (exclusive of amounts received under subsections 5(p)
11 and 5(p-5) of that Section) for the 1997-98 school year,
12 pursuant to the provisions of that Section as it was then in
13 effect. If a school district qualifies to receive a
14 supplementary payment made under this subsection (J), the
15 amount of the aggregate general State aid in combination with
16 supplemental general State aid under this Section which that
17 district is eligible to receive for each school year shall be
18 no less than the amount of the aggregate general State aid
19 entitlement that was received by the district under Section
20 18-8 (exclusive of amounts received under subsections 5(p)
21 and 5(p-5) of that Section) for the 1997-1998 school year,
22 pursuant to the provisions of that Section as it was then in
23 effect.
24 (2) If, as provided in paragraph (1) of this subsection
25 (J), a school district is to receive aggregate general State
26 aid in combination with supplemental general State aid under
27 this Section for the 1998-99 school year and any subsequent
28 school year that in any such school year is less than the
29 amount of the aggregate general State aid entitlement that
30 the district received for the 1997-98 school year, the school
31 district shall also receive, from a separate appropriation
32 made for purposes of this subsection (J), a supplementary
33 payment that is equal to the amount of the difference in the
34 aggregate State aid figures as described in paragraph (1).

2 (K) Grants to Laboratory and Alternative Schools.
3 In calculating the amount to be paid to the governing
4 board of a public university that operates a laboratory
5 school under this Section or to any alternative school that
6 is operated by a regional superintendent of schools, the
7 State Board of Education shall require by rule such reporting
8 requirements as it deems necessary.
9 As used in this Section, "laboratory school" means a
10 public school which is created and operated by a public
11 university and approved by the State Board of Education. The
12 governing board of a public university which receives funds
13 from the State Board under this subsection (K) may not
14 increase the number of students enrolled in its laboratory
15 school from a single district, if that district is already
16 sending 50 or more students, except under a mutual agreement
17 between the school board of a student's district of residence
18 and the university which operates the laboratory school. A
19 laboratory school may not have more than 1,000 students,
20 excluding students with disabilities in a special education
21 program.
22 As used in this Section, "alternative school" means a
23 public school which is created and operated by a Regional
24 Superintendent of Schools and approved by the State Board of
25 Education. Such alternative schools may offer courses of
26 instruction for which credit is given in regular school
27 programs, courses to prepare students for the high school
28 equivalency testing program or vocational and occupational
29 training. A regional superintendent of schools may contract
30 with a school district or a public community college district
31 to operate an alternative school. An alternative school
32 serving more than one educational service region may be
33 established by the regional superintendents of schools of the
34 affected educational service regions. An alternative school
SB1854 Enrolled -388- LRB9215370EGfg
1 serving more than one educational service region may be
2 operated under such terms as the regional superintendents of
3 schools of those educational service regions may agree.
4 Each laboratory and alternative school shall file, on
5 forms provided by the State Superintendent of Education, an
6 annual State aid claim which states the Average Daily
7 Attendance of the school's students by month. The best 3
8 months' Average Daily Attendance shall be computed for each
9 school. The general State aid entitlement shall be computed
10 by multiplying the applicable Average Daily Attendance by the
11 Foundation Level as determined under this Section.
12 (L) Payments, Additional Grants in Aid and Other
13 Requirements.
14 (1) For a school district operating under the financial
15 supervision of an Authority created under Article 34A, the
16 general State aid otherwise payable to that district under
17 this Section, but not the supplemental general State aid,
18 shall be reduced by an amount equal to the budget for the
19 operations of the Authority as certified by the Authority to
20 the State Board of Education, and an amount equal to such
21 reduction shall be paid to the Authority created for such
22 district for its operating expenses in the manner provided in
23 Section 18-11. The remainder of general State school aid for
24 any such district shall be paid in accordance with Article
25 34A when that Article provides for a disposition other than
26 that provided by this Article.

SB1854 Enrolled -389- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Governor, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate.
2 The members appointed shall include representatives of
3 education, business, and the general public. One of the

12 Board, the member who is appointed as the chairperson shall
13 serve for a term that commences on the date of his or her
14 appointment and expires on the third Monday of January, 2002,
15 and the remaining 4 members, by lots drawn at the first
16 meeting of the Board that is held after all 5 members are
17 appointed, shall determine 2 of their number to serve for
18 terms that commence on the date of their respective
19 appointments and expire on the third Monday of January, 2001,
20 and 2 of their number to serve for terms that commence on the
21 date of their respective appointments and expire on the third
22 Monday of January, 2000. All members appointed to serve on
23 the Board shall serve until their respective successors are
24 appointed and confirmed. Vacancies shall be filled in the
25 same manner as original appointments. If a vacancy in
26 membership occurs at a time when the Senate is not in

28 until the next meeting of the Senate, when he or she shall
29 appoint, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, a
30 person to fill that membership for the unexpired term. If
31 the Senate is not in session when the initial appointments
32 are made, those appointments shall be made as in the case of
33 vacancies.
34 The Education Funding Advisory Board shall be deemed
SB1854 Enrolled -390- LRB9215370EGfg
1 established, and the initial members appointed by the
2 Governor to serve as members of the Board shall take office,
3 on the date that the Governor makes his or her appointment of
4 the fifth initial member of the Board, whether those initial
5 members are then serving pursuant to appointment and
6 confirmation or pursuant to temporary appointments that are
7 made by the Governor as in the case of vacancies.
8 The State Board of Education shall provide such staff
9 assistance to the Education Funding Advisory Board as is
10 reasonably required for the proper performance by the Board
11 of its responsibilities.
12 For school years after the 2000-2001 school year, the
13 Education Funding Advisory Board, in consultation with the
14 State Board of Education, shall make recommendations as
15 provided in this subsection (M) to the General Assembly for
16 the foundation level under subdivision (B)(3) of this Section
17 and for the supplemental general State aid grant level under
18 subsection (H) of this Section for districts with high
19 concentrations of children from poverty. The recommended
20 foundation level shall be determined based on a methodology
21 which incorporates the basic education expenditures of
22 low-spending schools exhibiting high academic performance.
23 The Education Funding Advisory Board shall make such
24 recommendations to the General Assembly on January 1 of odd
25 numbered years, beginning January 1, 2001.

28 Act provisions of general application to stock of a state
29 bank shall be as follows:
30 (1) All banks shall have their capital divided into
31 shares of a par value of not less than $1 each and not more

5 stock or preferred stock shall be valid until not less than
6 the par value of all such stock so issued shall be paid in

12 (4) If any part of the capital of a bank consists of
13 preferred stock, the determination of whether or not the
14 capital of such bank is impaired and the amount of such

32 convertible debentures or other convertible evidences of
33 indebtedness issued by a state bank, provided always that

SB1854 Enrolled -396- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Commissioner;
2 (d) Reserved for issuance by the declaration of a
3 stock dividend. If and when any shares of capital stock
4 are proposed to be authorized and reserved for any of the
5 purposes set forth in subparagraphs (a), (b) or (c)
6 above, the notice of the meeting, whether special or
7 annual, of stockholders at which such proposition is to
8 be considered shall be accompanied by a statement setting
9 forth or summarizing the terms upon which the shares of
10 capital stock so reserved are to be issued, and the

15 indebtedness, and the approving vote of the holders of at
16 least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of stock
17 entitled to vote at such meeting of the terms of such
18 issuance shall be requisite for the adoption of any
19 amendment providing for the reservation of authorized but

27 hold as treasury stock such amounts of the total number of
28 issued and outstanding shares of its capital and preferred
29 stock outstanding as the Commissioner determines is
30 consistent with safety and soundness of the bank. The
31 Commissioner may specify the manner of accounting for the
32 treasury stock and the form of notice prior to ultimate
33 disposition of the shares. Except as authorized in this
34 subsection, it shall not be lawful for a state bank to
SB1854 Enrolled -397- LRB9215370EGfg
1 purchase or hold any additional such shares or securities
2 described in subsection (2) of Section 37 unless necessary to
3 prevent loss upon a debt previously contracted in good faith,
4 in which event such shares or securities so purchased or
5 acquired shall, within 6 months from the time of purchase or
6 acquisition, be sold or disposed of at public or private
7 sale. Any state bank which intends to purchase and hold
8 treasury stock as authorized in this subsection (6) shall
9 file a written application with the Commissioner 60 days
10 prior to any such proposed purchase. The application shall
11 state the number of shares to be purchased, the consideration
12 for the shares, the name and address of the person from whom
13 the shares are to be purchased, if known, and the total
14 percentage of its issued and outstanding shares to be held by
15 the bank after the purchase. The total consideration paid by
16 a state bank for treasury stock shall reduce capital and
17 surplus of the bank for purposes of Sections of this Act
18 relating to lending and investment limits which require
19 computation of capital and surplus. After considering and
20 approving an application to purchase and hold treasury stock
21 under this subsection, the Commissioner may waive or reduce
22 the balance of the 60 day application period. The
23 Commissioner may specify the form of the application for
24 approval to acquire treasury stock and promulgate rules and
25 regulations for the administration of this subsection (6). A
26 state bank may, acquire or resell its own owns shares as
27 treasury stock pursuant to this subsection (6) without a
28 change in its charter pursuant to Section 17. Such stock may
29 be held for any purpose permitted in subsection (5) of this
30 Section 14 or may be resold upon such reasonable terms as the
31 board of directors may determine provided notice is given to
32 the Commissioner prior to the resale of such stock.
33 (7) During the time that a state bank shall continue its
34 banking business, it shall not withdraw or permit to be
SB1854 Enrolled -398- LRB9215370EGfg
1 withdrawn, either in the form of dividends or otherwise, any
2 portion of its capital, but nothing in this subsection shall
3 prevent a reduction or change of the capital stock or the
4 preferred stock under the provisions of Sections 17 through
5 30 of this Act, a purchase of treasury stock under the
6 provisions of subsection (6) of this Section 14 or a
7 redemption of preferred stock pursuant to charter provisions
8 therefor.
9 (8) (a) Subject to the provisions of this Act, the board
10 of directors of a state bank from time to time may
11 declare a dividend of so much of the net profits of such
12 bank as it shall judge expedient, but each bank before
13 the declaration of a dividend shall carry at least
14 one-tenth of its net profits since the date of the
15 declaration of the last preceding dividend, or since the
16 issuance of its charter in the case of its first
17 dividend, to its surplus until the same shall be equal to
18 its capital.
19 (b) No dividends shall be paid by a state bank
20 while it continues its banking business to an amount
21 greater than its net profits then on hand, deducting
22 first therefrom its losses and bad debts. All debts due
23 to a state bank on which interest is past due and unpaid
24 for a period of 6 months or more, unless the same are
25 well secured and in the process of collection, shall be
26 considered bad debts.
27 (9) A State bank may, but shall not be obliged to, issue
28 a certificate for a fractional share, and, by action of its
29 board of directors, may in lieu thereof, pay cash equal to
30 the value of the fractional share. A certificate for a
31 fractional share shall entitle the holder to exercise
32 fractional voting rights, to receive dividends, and to
33 participate in any of the assets of the bank in the event of
34 liquidation.

3 Sec. 48. Commissioner's powers; duties. The Commissioner
4 shall have the powers and authority, and is charged with the
5 duties and responsibilities designated in this Act, and a
6 State bank shall not be subject to any other visitorial power
7 other than as authorized by this Act, except those vested in
8 the courts, or upon prior consultation with the Commissioner,
9 a foreign bank regulator with an appropriate supervisory
10 interest in the parent or affiliate of a state bank. In the
11 performance of the Commissioner's duties:
12 (1) The Commissioner shall call for statements from all
13 State banks as provided in Section 47 at least one time
14 during each calendar quarter.
15 (2) (a) The Commissioner, as often as the Commissioner
16 shall deem necessary or proper, and no less frequently than
17 18 months following the preceding examination, shall appoint
18 a suitable person or persons to make an examination of the
19 affairs of every State bank, except that for every eligible
20 State bank, as defined by regulation, the Commissioner in
21 lieu of the examination may accept on an alternating basis
22 the examination made by the eligible State bank's appropriate
23 federal banking agency pursuant to Section 111 of the Federal
24 Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991,
25 provided the appropriate federal banking agency has made such
26 an examination. A person so appointed shall not be a
27 stockholder or officer or employee of any bank which that
28 person may be directed to examine, and shall have powers to
29 make a thorough examination into all the affairs of the bank
30 and in so doing to examine any of the officers or agents or
31 employees thereof on oath and shall make a full and detailed
32 report of the condition of the bank to the Commissioner. In
33 making the examination the examiners shall include an
SB1854 Enrolled -400- LRB9215370EGfg
1 examination of the affairs of all the affiliates of the bank,
2 as defined in subsection (b) of Section 35.2 of this Act, or
3 subsidiaries of the bank as shall be necessary to disclose
4 fully the conditions of the subsidiaries or affiliates, the
5 relations between the bank and the subsidiaries or affiliates
6 and the effect of those relations upon the affairs of the
7 bank, and in connection therewith shall have power to examine
8 any of the officers, directors, agents, or employees of the
9 subsidiaries or affiliates on oath. After May 31, 1997, the
10 Commissioner may enter into cooperative agreements with state
11 regulatory authorities of other states to provide for
12 examination of State bank branches in those states, and the
13 Commissioner may accept reports of examinations of State bank
14 branches from those state regulatory authorities. These
15 cooperative agreements may set forth the manner in which the
16 other state regulatory authorities may be compensated for
17 examinations prepared for and submitted to the Commissioner.
18 (b) After May 31, 1997, the Commissioner is authorized
19 to examine, as often as the Commissioner shall deem necessary
20 or proper, branches of out-of-state banks. The Commissioner
21 may establish and may assess fees to be paid to the
22 Commissioner for examinations under this subsection (b). The
23 fees shall be borne by the out-of-state bank, unless the fees
24 are borne by the state regulatory authority that chartered
25 the out-of-state bank, as determined by a cooperative
26 agreement between the Commissioner and the state regulatory
27 authority that chartered the out-of-state bank.
28 (2.5) Whenever any State bank, any subsidiary or
29 affiliate of a State bank, or after May 31, 1997, any branch
30 of an out-of-state bank causes to be performed, by contract
31 or otherwise, any bank services for itself, whether on or off
32 its premises:
33 (a) that performance shall be subject to
34 examination by the Commissioner to the same extent as if
SB1854 Enrolled -401- LRB9215370EGfg
1 services were being performed by the bank or, after May
2 31, 1997, branch of the out-of-state bank itself on its
3 own premises; and
4 (b) the bank or, after May 31, 1997, branch of the
5 out-of-state bank shall notify the Commissioner of the
6 existence of a service relationship. The notification
7 shall be submitted with the first statement of condition
8 (as required by Section 47 of this Act) due after the
9 making of the service contract or the performance of the
10 service, whichever occurs first. The Commissioner shall
11 be notified of each subsequent contract in the same
12 manner.
13 For purposes of this subsection (2.5), the term "bank
14 services" means services such as sorting and posting of
15 checks and deposits, computation and posting of interest and
16 other credits and charges, preparation and mailing of checks,
17 statements, notices, and similar items, or any other
18 clerical, bookkeeping, accounting, statistical, or similar
19 functions performed for a State bank, including but not
20 limited to electronic data processing related to those bank
21 services.
22 (3) The expense of administering this Act, including the
23 expense of the examinations of State banks as provided in
24 this Act, shall to the extent of the amounts resulting from
25 the fees provided for in paragraphs (a), (a-2), and (b) of
26 this subsection (3) be assessed against and borne by the
27 State banks:
28 (a) Each bank shall pay to the Commissioner a Call
29 Report Fee which shall be paid in quarterly installments
30 equal to one-fourth of the sum of the annual fixed fee of
31 $800, plus a variable fee based on the assets shown on
32 the quarterly statement of condition delivered to the
33 Commissioner in accordance with Section 47 for the
34 preceding quarter according to the following schedule:
SB1854 Enrolled -402- LRB9215370EGfg
1 16¢ per $1,000 of the first $5,000,000 of total assets,
2 15¢ per $1,000 of the next $20,000,000 of total assets,
3 13¢ per $1,000 of the next $75,000,000 of total assets,
4 9¢ per $1,000 of the next $400,000,000 of total assets,
5 7¢ per $1,000 of the next $500,000,000 of total assets,
6 and 5¢ per $1,000 of all assets in excess of
7 $1,000,000,000, of the State bank. The Call Report Fee
8 shall be calculated by the Commissioner and billed to the
9 banks for remittance at the time of the quarterly
10 statements of condition provided for in Section 47. The
11 Commissioner may require payment of the fees provided in
12 this Section by an electronic transfer of funds or an
13 automatic debit of an account of each of the State banks.
14 In case more than one examination of any bank is deemed
15 by the Commissioner to be necessary in any examination
16 frequency cycle specified in subsection 2(a) of this
17 Section, and is performed at his direction, the
18 Commissioner may assess a reasonable additional fee to
19 recover the cost of the additional examination; provided,
20 however, that an examination conducted at the request of
21 the State Treasurer pursuant to the Uniform Disposition
22 of Unclaimed Property Act shall not be deemed to be an
23 additional examination under this Section. In lieu of the
24 method and amounts set forth in this paragraph (a) for
25 the calculation of the Call Report Fee, the Commissioner
26 may specify by rule that the Call Report Fees provided by
27 this Section may be assessed semiannually or some other
28 period and may provide in the rule the formula to be used
29 for calculating and assessing the periodic Call Report
30 Fees to be paid by State banks.
31 (a-1) If in the opinion of the Commissioner an
32 emergency exists or appears likely, the Commissioner may
33 assign an examiner or examiners to monitor the affairs of
34 a State bank with whatever frequency he deems
SB1854 Enrolled -403- LRB9215370EGfg
1 appropriate, including but not limited to a daily basis.
2 The reasonable and necessary expenses of the Commissioner
3 during the period of the monitoring shall be borne by the
4 subject bank. The Commissioner shall furnish the State
5 bank a statement of time and expenses if requested to do
6 so within 30 days of the conclusion of the monitoring
7 period.
8 (a-2) On and after January 1, 1990, the reasonable
9 and necessary expenses of the Commissioner during
10 examination of the performance of electronic data
11 processing services under subsection (2.5) shall be borne
12 by the banks for which the services are provided. An
13 amount, based upon a fee structure prescribed by the
14 Commissioner, shall be paid by the banks or, after May
15 31, 1997, branches of out-of-state banks receiving the
16 electronic data processing services along with the Call
17 Report Fee assessed under paragraph (a) of this
18 subsection (3).
19 (a-3) After May 31, 1997, the reasonable and
20 necessary expenses of the Commissioner during examination
21 of the performance of electronic data processing services
22 under subsection (2.5) at or on behalf of branches of
23 out-of-state banks shall be borne by the out-of-state
24 banks, unless those expenses are borne by the state
25 regulatory authorities that chartered the out-of-state
26 banks, as determined by cooperative agreements between
27 the Commissioner and the state regulatory authorities
28 that chartered the out-of-state banks.
29 (b) "Fiscal year" for purposes of this Section 48
30 is defined as a period beginning July 1 of any year and
31 ending June 30 of the next year. The Commissioner shall
32 receive for each fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal
33 year ending June 30, 1987, a contingent fee equal to the
34 lesser of the aggregate of the fees paid by all State
SB1854 Enrolled -404- LRB9215370EGfg
1 banks under paragraph (a) of subsection (3) for that
2 year, or the amount, if any, whereby the aggregate of the
3 administration expenses, as defined in paragraph (c), for
4 that fiscal year exceeds the sum of the aggregate of the
5 fees payable by all State banks for that year under
6 paragraph (a) of subsection (3), plus any amounts
7 transferred into the Bank and Trust Company Fund from the
8 State Pensions Fund for that year, plus all other amounts
9 collected by the Commissioner for that year under any
10 other provision of this Act, plus the aggregate of all
11 fees collected for that year by the Commissioner under
12 the Corporate Fiduciary Act, excluding the receivership
13 fees provided for in Section 5-10 of the Corporate
14 Fiduciary Act, and the Foreign Banking Office Act. The
15 aggregate amount of the contingent fee thus arrived at
16 for any fiscal year shall be apportioned amongst,
17 assessed upon, and paid by the State banks and foreign
18 banking corporations, respectively, in the same
19 proportion that the fee of each under paragraph (a) of
20 subsection (3), respectively, for that year bears to the
21 aggregate for that year of the fees collected under
22 paragraph (a) of subsection (3). The aggregate amount of
23 the contingent fee, and the portion thereof to be
24 assessed upon each State bank and foreign banking
25 corporation, respectively, shall be determined by the
26 Commissioner and shall be paid by each, respectively,
27 within 120 days of the close of the period for which the
28 contingent fee is computed and is payable, and the
29 Commissioner shall give 20 days advance notice of the
30 amount of the contingent fee payable by the State bank
31 and of the date fixed by the Commissioner for payment of
32 the fee.
33 (c) The "administration expenses" for any fiscal
34 year shall mean the ordinary and contingent expenses for
SB1854 Enrolled -405- LRB9215370EGfg
1 that year incident to making the examinations provided
2 for by, and for otherwise administering, this Act, the
3 Corporate Fiduciary Act, excluding the expenses paid from
4 the Corporate Fiduciary Receivership account in the Bank
5 and Trust Company Fund, the Foreign Banking Office Act,
6 the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, and the Illinois Bank
7 Examiners' Education Foundation Act, including all
8 salaries and other compensation paid for personal
9 services rendered for the State by officers or employees
10 of the State, including the Commissioner and the Deputy
11 Commissioners, all expenditures for telephone and
12 telegraph charges, postage and postal charges, office
13 stationery, supplies and services, and office furniture
14 and equipment, including typewriters and copying and
15 duplicating machines and filing equipment, surety bond
16 premiums, and travel expenses of those officers and
17 employees, employees, expenditures or charges for the
18 acquisition, enlargement or improvement of, or for the
19 use of, any office space, building, or structure, or
20 expenditures for the maintenance thereof or for
21 furnishing heat, light, or power with respect thereto,
22 all to the extent that those expenditures are directly
23 incidental to such examinations or administration. The
24 Commissioner shall not be required by paragraphs (c) or
25 (d-1) of this subsection (3) to maintain in any fiscal
26 year's budget appropriated reserves for accrued vacation
27 and accrued sick leave that is required to be paid to
28 employees of the Commissioner upon termination of their
29 service with the Commissioner in an amount that is more
30 than is reasonably anticipated to be necessary for any
31 anticipated turnover in employees, whether due to normal
32 attrition or due to layoffs, terminations, or
33 resignations.
34 (d) The aggregate of all fees collected by the
SB1854 Enrolled -406- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Commissioner under this Act, the Corporate Fiduciary Act,
2 or the Foreign Banking Office Act on and after July 1,
3 1979, shall be paid promptly after receipt of the same,
4 accompanied by a detailed statement thereof, into the
5 State treasury and shall be set apart in a special fund
6 to be known as the "Bank and Trust Company Fund", except
7 as provided in paragraph (c) of subsection (11) of this
8 Section. All earnings received from investments of funds
9 in the Bank and Trust Company Fund shall be deposited in
10 the Bank and Trust Company Fund and may be used for the
11 same purposes as fees deposited in that Fund. The amount
12 from time to time deposited into the Bank and Trust
13 Company Fund shall be used to offset the ordinary
14 administrative expenses of the Commissioner of Banks and
15 Real Estate as defined in this Section. Nothing in this
16 amendatory Act of 1979 shall prevent continuing the
17 practice of paying expenses involving salaries,
18 retirement, social security, and State-paid insurance
19 premiums of State officers by appropriations from the
20 General Revenue Fund. However, the General Revenue Fund
21 shall be reimbursed for those payments made on and after
22 July 1, 1979, by an annual transfer of funds from the
23 Bank and Trust Company Fund.
24 (d-1) Adequate funds shall be available in the Bank
25 and Trust Company Fund to permit the timely payment of
26 administration expenses. In each fiscal year the total
27 administration expenses shall be deducted from the total
28 fees collected by the Commissioner and the remainder
29 transferred into the Cash Flow Reserve Account, unless
30 the balance of the Cash Flow Reserve Account prior to the
31 transfer equals or exceeds one-fourth of the total
32 initial appropriations from the Bank and Trust Company
33 Fund for the subsequent year, in which case the remainder
34 shall be credited to State banks and foreign banking
SB1854 Enrolled -407- LRB9215370EGfg
1 corporations and applied against their fees for the
2 subsequent year. The amount credited to each State bank
3 and foreign banking corporation shall be in the same
4 proportion as the Call Report Fees paid by each for the
5 year bear to the total Call Report Fees collected for the
6 year. If, after a transfer to the Cash Flow Reserve
7 Account is made or if no remainder is available for
8 transfer, the balance of the Cash Flow Reserve Account is
9 less than one-fourth of the total initial appropriations
10 for the subsequent year and the amount transferred is
11 less than 5% of the total Call Report Fees for the year,
12 additional amounts needed to make the transfer equal to
13 5% of the total Call Report Fees for the year shall be
14 apportioned amongst, assessed upon, and paid by the State
15 banks and foreign banking corporations in the same
16 proportion that the Call Report Fees of each,
17 respectively, for the year bear to the total Call Report
18 Fees collected for the year. The additional amounts
19 assessed shall be transferred into the Cash Flow Reserve
20 Account. For purposes of this paragraph (d-1), the
21 calculation of the fees collected by the Commissioner
22 shall exclude the receivership fees provided for in
23 Section 5-10 of the Corporate Fiduciary Act.
24 (e) The Commissioner may upon request certify to
25 any public record in his keeping and shall have authority
26 to levy a reasonable charge for issuing certifications of
27 any public record in his keeping.
28 (f) In addition to fees authorized elsewhere in
29 this Act, the Commissioner may, in connection with a
30 review, approval, or provision of a service, levy a
31 reasonable charge to recover the cost of the review,
32 approval, or service.
33 (4) Nothing contained in this Act shall be construed to
34 limit the obligation relative to examinations and reports of
SB1854 Enrolled -408- LRB9215370EGfg
1 any State bank, deposits in which are to any extent insured
2 by the United States or any agency thereof, nor to limit in
3 any way the powers of the Commissioner with reference to
4 examinations and reports of that bank.
5 (5) The nature and condition of the assets in or
6 investment of any bonus, pension, or profit sharing plan for
7 officers or employees of every State bank or, after May 31,
8 1997, branch of an out-of-state bank shall be deemed to be
9 included in the affairs of that State bank or branch of an
10 out-of-state bank subject to examination by the Commissioner
11 under the provisions of subsection (2) of this Section, and
12 if the Commissioner shall find from an examination that the
13 condition of or operation of the investments or assets of the
14 plan is unlawful, fraudulent, or unsafe, or that any trustee
15 has abused his trust, the Commissioner shall, if the
16 situation so found by the Commissioner shall not be corrected
17 to his satisfaction within 60 days after the Commissioner has
18 given notice to the board of directors of the State bank or
19 out-of-state bank of his findings, report the facts to the
20 Attorney General who shall thereupon institute proceedings
21 against the State bank or out-of-state bank, the board of
22 directors thereof, or the trustees under such plan as the
23 nature of the case may require.
24 (6) The Commissioner shall have the power:
25 (a) To promulgate reasonable rules for the purpose
26 of administering the provisions of this Act.
27 (a-5) To impose conditions on any approval issued
28 by the Commissioner if he determines that the conditions
29 are necessary or appropriate. These conditions shall be
30 imposed in writing and shall continue in effect for the
31 period prescribed by the Commissioner.
32 (b) To issue orders against any person, if the
33 Commissioner has reasonable cause to believe that an
34 unsafe or unsound banking practice has occurred, is
SB1854 Enrolled -409- LRB9215370EGfg
1 occurring, or is about to occur, if any person has
2 violated, is violating, or is about to violate any law,
3 rule, or written agreement with the Commissioner, or for
4 the purpose of administering the provisions of this Act,
5 and any rule promulgated in accordance with this Act.
6 (b-1) To enter into agreements with a bank
7 establishing a program to correct the condition of the
8 bank or its practices.
9 (c) To appoint hearing officers to execute any of
10 the powers granted to the Commissioner under this Section
11 for the purpose of administering this Act and any rule
12 promulgated in accordance with this Act and otherwise to
13 authorize, in writing, an officer or employee of the
14 Office of Banks and Real Estate to exercise his powers
15 under this Act.
16 (d) To subpoena witnesses, to compel their
17 attendance, to administer an oath, to examine any person
18 under oath, and to require the production of any relevant
19 books, papers, accounts, and documents in the course of
20 and pursuant to any investigation being conducted, or any
21 action being taken, by the Commissioner in respect of any
22 matter relating to the duties imposed upon, or the powers
23 vested in, the Commissioner under the provisions of this
24 Act or any rule promulgated in accordance with this Act.
25 (e) To conduct hearings.
26 (7) Whenever, in the opinion of the Commissioner, any
27 director, officer, employee, or agent of a State bank or any
28 subsidiary or bank holding company of the bank or, after May
29 31, 1997, of any branch of an out-of-state bank or any
30 subsidiary or bank holding company of the bank shall have
31 violated any law, rule, or order relating to that bank or any
32 subsidiary or bank holding company of the bank, shall have
33 obstructed or impeded any examination or investigation by the
34 Commissioner, shall have engaged in an unsafe or unsound
SB1854 Enrolled -410- LRB9215370EGfg
1 practice in conducting the business of that bank or any
2 subsidiary or bank holding company of the bank, or shall have
3 violated any law or engaged or participated in any unsafe or
4 unsound practice in connection with any financial institution
5 or other business entity such that the character and fitness
6 of the director, officer, employee, or agent does not assure
7 reasonable promise of safe and sound operation of the State
8 bank, the Commissioner may issue an order of removal. If, in
9 the opinion of the Commissioner, any former director,
10 officer, employee, or agent of a State bank or any subsidiary
11 or bank holding company of the bank, prior to the termination
12 of his or her service with that bank or any subsidiary or
13 bank holding company of the bank, violated any law, rule, or
14 order relating to that State bank or any subsidiary or bank
15 holding company of the bank, obstructed or impeded any
16 examination or investigation by the Commissioner, engaged in
17 an unsafe or unsound practice in conducting the business of
18 that bank or any subsidiary or bank holding company of the
19 bank, or violated any law or engaged or participated in any
20 unsafe or unsound practice in connection with any financial
21 institution or other business entity such that the character
22 and fitness of the director, officer, employee, or agent
23 would not have assured reasonable promise of safe and sound
24 operation of the State bank, the Commissioner may issue an
25 order prohibiting that person from further service with a
26 bank or any subsidiary or bank holding company of the bank as
27 a director, officer, employee, or agent. An order issued
28 pursuant to this subsection shall be served upon the
29 director, officer, employee, or agent. A copy of the order
30 shall be sent to each director of the bank affected by
31 registered mail. The person affected by the action may
32 request a hearing before the State Banking Board within 10
33 days after receipt of the order. The hearing shall be held
34 by the Board within 30 days after the request has been
SB1854 Enrolled -411- LRB9215370EGfg
1 received by the Board. The Board shall make a determination
2 approving, modifying, or disapproving the order of the
3 Commissioner as its final administrative decision. If a
4 hearing is held by the Board, the Board shall make its
5 determination within 60 days from the conclusion of the
6 hearing. Any person affected by a decision of the Board under
7 this subsection (7) of Section 48 of this Act may have the
8 decision reviewed only under and in accordance with the
9 Administrative Review Law and the rules adopted pursuant
10 thereto. A copy of the order shall also be served upon the

12 whereupon he shall cease to be a director, officer, employee,
13 or agent of that bank. The Commissioner may institute a
14 civil action against the director, officer, or agent of the

16 out-of-state bank against whom any order provided for by this
17 subsection (7) of this Section 48 has been issued, and
18 against the State bank or, after May 31, 1997, out-of-state
19 bank, to enforce compliance with or to enjoin any violation
20 of the terms of the order. Any person who has been the
21 subject of an order of removal or an order of prohibition
22 issued by the Commissioner under this subsection or Section
23 5-6 of the Corporate Fiduciary Act may not thereafter serve
24 as director, officer, employee, or agent of any State bank or
25 of any branch of any out-of-state bank, or of any corporate
26 fiduciary, as defined in Section 1-5.05 of the Corporate
27 Fiduciary Act, or of any other entity that is subject to
28 licensure or regulation by the Commissioner or the Office of
29 Banks and Real Estate unless the Commissioner has granted
30 prior approval in writing.
31 For purposes of this paragraph (7), "bank holding
32 company" has the meaning prescribed in Section 2 of the
33 Illinois Bank Holding Company Act of 1957.
34 (8) The Commissioner may impose civil penalties of up to
SB1854 Enrolled -412- LRB9215370EGfg
1 $10,000 against any person for each violation of any
2 provision of this Act, any rule promulgated in accordance
3 with this Act, any order of the Commissioner, or any other
4 action which in the Commissioner's discretion is an unsafe or
5 unsound banking practice.
6 (9) The Commissioner may impose civil penalties of up to
7 $100 against any person for the first failure to comply with

12 (205 ILCS 620/Article IVA heading)
13 ARTICLE IVA. MULTISTATE TRUST ACTIVITIES
14 Section 44. The Transmitters of Money Act is amended by
15 changing Section 92 as follows:
16 (205 ILCS 657/92)
17 Sec. 92. Receivership.
18 (a) If the Director determines that a licensee is
19 insolvent or is violating this Act, he or she may appoint a
20 receiver. Under the direction of the Director, the receiver
21 shall, for the purpose of receivership, take possession of
22 and title to the books, records, and assets of the licensee.
23 The Director may require the receiver to provide security in
24 an amount the Director deems proper. Upon appointment of the
25 receiver, the Director shall have published, once each week
26 for 4 consecutive weeks in a newspaper having a general
27 circulation in the community, a notice informing all persons
28 who have claims against the licensee to present them to the
29 receiver. Within 10 days after the receiver takes possession,
30 the licensee may apply to the Circuit Court of Sangamon
SB1854 Enrolled -416- LRB9215370EGfg
1 County to enjoin further proceedings. The receiver may
2 operate the business until the Director determines that
3 possession should be restored to the licensee or that the
4 business should be liquidated.
5 (b) If the Director determines that a business in
6 receivership should be liquidated, he or she shall direct the
7 Attorney General to file a complaint in the Circuit Court of
8 the county in which the business is located, in the name of
9 the People of the State of Illinois, for the orderly
10 liquidation and dissolution of the business and for an
11 injunction restraining the licensee and its officers and
12 directors from continuing the operation of the business.
13 Within 30 days after the day the Director determines that the
14 business should be liquidated, the receiver shall file with
15 the Director and with the clerk of the court that has charge
16 of the liquidation a correct list of all creditors, as shown
17 by the licensee's books and records, who have not presented
18 their claims. The list shall state the amount of the claim
19 after allowing all just credits, deductions, and set-offs as
20 shown by the licensee's books. These claims shall be deemed
21 proven unless some interested party files an objection within
22 the time fixed by the Director or court that has charge of
23 the liquidation.
24 (c) The General Assembly finds and declares that
25 transmitters of money debt management services provide
26 important and vital services to Illinois citizens. It is
27 therefore declared to be the policy of this State that
28 customers who receive these services must be protected from
29 interruptions of services. To carry out this policy and to
30 insure that customers of a licensee are protected if it is
31 determined that a business in receivership should be
32 liquidated, the Director shall make a distribution of moneys
33 collected by the receiver in the following order of priority:
34 (1) Allowed claims for the actual necessary
SB1854 Enrolled -417- LRB9215370EGfg
1 expenses of the receivership of the business being
2 liquidated, including:
3 (A) reasonable receiver's fees and receiver's
4 attorney's fees approved by the Director;
5 (B) all expenses of any preliminary or other
6 examinations into the condition of the receivership;
7 (C) all expenses incurred by the Director that
8 are incident to possession and control of any
9 property or records of the licensee's business; and
10 (D) reasonable expenses incurred by the
11 Director as the result of business agreements or
12 contractual arrangements necessary to insure that
13 the services of the licensee are delivered to the
14 community without interruption. These business
15 agreements or contractual arrangements may include,
16 but are not limited to, agreements made by the
17 Director, or by the receiver with the approval of
18 the Director, with banks, bonding companies, and
19 other types of financial institutions.
20 (2) Allowed unsecured claims for wages or salaries,
21 excluding vacation, severance, and sick leave pay earned
22 by employees within 90 days before the appointment of a
23 receiver.
24 (3) Allowed unsecured claims of any tax, and
25 interest and penalty on the tax.
26 (4) Allowed unsecured claims, other than a kind
27 specified in items (1), (2), and (3) of this subsection,
28 filed with the Director within the time the Director
29 fixes for filing claims.
30 (5) Allowed unsecured claims, other than a kind
31 specified in items (1), (2), and (3) of this subsection,
32 filed with the Director after the time fixed for filing
33 claims by the Director.
34 (6) Allowed creditor claims asserted by an owner,
SB1854 Enrolled -418- LRB9215370EGfg
1 member, or stockholder of the business in liquidation.
2 (7) After one year from the final dissolution of
3 the licensee's business, all assets not used to satisfy
4 allowed claims shall be distributed pro rata to the
5 owner, owners, members, or stockholders of the business.
6 The Director shall pay all claims of equal priority
7 according to the schedule established in this subsection and
8 shall not pay claims of lower priority until all higher
9 priority claims are satisfied. If insufficient assets are
10 available to meet all claims of equal priority, those assets
11 shall be distributed pro rata among those claims. All
12 unclaimed assets of a licensee and the licensee's business
13 shall be deposited with the Director to be paid out when
14 proper claims are presented to the Director.
15 (d) Upon the order of the circuit court of the county in
16 which the business being liquidated is located, the receiver
17 may sell or compound any bad or doubtful debt, and on like
18 order may sell the personal property of the business on such
19 terms as the court approves. The receiver shall succeed to
20 whatever rights or remedies the unsecured creditors of the
21 business may have against the owner or owners, operators,
22 stockholders, directors, members, managers, or officers,
23 arising out of their claims against the licensee's business,
24 but nothing contained in this Section shall prevent those
25 creditors from filing their claims in the liquidation
26 proceeding. The receiver may enforce those rights or
27 remedies in any court of competent jurisdiction.
28 (e) At the close of a receivership, the receiver shall
29 turn over to the Director all books of account and ledgers of
30 the business for preservation. The Director shall hold all
31 records of receiverships received at any time for a period of
32 2 years after the close of the receivership. The records may
33 be destroyed at the termination of the 2-year period. All
34 expenses of the receivership including, but not limited to,
SB1854 Enrolled -419- LRB9215370EGfg
1 reasonable receiver's and attorney's fees approved by the
2 Director, all expenses of any preliminary or other
3 examinations into the condition of the licensee's business or
4 the receivership, and all expenses incident to the possession
5 and control of any property or records of the business
6 incurred by the Director shall be paid out of the assets of
7 the licensee's business. These expenses shall be paid before
8 all other claims.
9 (f) Upon the filing of a complaint by the Attorney
10 General for the orderly liquidation and dissolution of a
11 licensee's business, as provided in this Act, all pending
12 suits and actions upon unsecured claims against the business
13 shall abate. Nothing contained in this Act, however,
14 prevents these claimants from filing their claims in the
15 liquidation proceeding. If a suit or an action is instituted
16 or maintained by the receiver on any bond or policy of
17 insurance issued pursuant to the requirements of this Act,
18 the bonding or insurance company sued shall not have the
19 right to interpose or maintain any counterclaim based upon
20 subrogation, upon any express or implied agreement of, or
21 right to, indemnity or exoneration, or upon any other express
22 or implied agreement with, or right against, the licensee's
23 business. Nothing contained in this Act prevents the bonding
24 or insurance company from filing this type of claim in the
25 liquidation proceeding.
26 (g) A licensee may not terminate its affairs and close
27 up its business unless it has first deposited with the
28 Director an amount of money equal to all of its debts,
29 liabilities, and lawful demands against it including the
30 costs and expenses of a proceeding under this Section,
31 surrendered to the Director its license, and filed with the
32 Director a statement of termination signed by the licensee
33 containing a pronouncement of intent to close up its business
34 and liquidate its liabilities and containing a sworn list
SB1854 Enrolled -420- LRB9215370EGfg
1 itemizing in full all of its debts, liabilities, and lawful
2 demands against it. Corporate licensees must attach to, and
3 make a part of the statement of termination, a copy of a
4 resolution providing for the termination and closing up of
5 the licensee's affairs, certified by the secretary of the
6 licensee and duly adopted at a shareholders' meeting by the
7 holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares
8 entitled to vote at the meeting. Upon the filing with the
9 Director of a statement of termination, the Director shall
10 cause notice of that action to be published once each week
11 for 3 consecutive weeks in a public newspaper of general
12 circulation published in the city or village where the
13 business is located, and if no newspaper is published in that
14 place, then in a public newspaper of general circulation
15 nearest to that city or village. The publication shall give
16 notice that the debts, liabilities, and lawful demands
17 against the business will be redeemed by the Director upon
18 demand in writing made by the owner thereof, at any time
19 within 3 years after the date of first publication. After
20 the expiration of the 3-year period, the Director shall
21 return to the person or persons designated in the statement
22 of termination to receive repayment, and in the proportion
23 specified in that statement, any balance of money remaining
24 in his or her possession after first deducting all unpaid
25 costs and expenses incurred in connection with a proceeding
26 under this Section. The Director shall receive for his or her
27 services, exclusive of costs and expenses, 2% of any amount
28 up to $5,000 and 1% of any amount in excess of $5,000
29 deposited with him or her under this Section by any business.
30 Nothing contained in this Section shall affect or impair the
31 liability of any bonding or insurance company on any bond or
32 insurance policy issued under this Act relating to the
33 business.

1 Section 45. The Abused and Neglected Long Term Care
2 Facility Residents Reporting Act is amended by changing
3 Section 6.2 as follows:
4 (210 ILCS 30/6.2) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 4166.2)
5 (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2004)
6 Sec. 6.2. Inspector General.
7 (a) The Governor shall appoint, and the Senate shall
8 confirm, an Inspector General who shall function within the
9 Department of Human Services and report to the Secretary of
10 Human Services and the Governor. The Inspector General shall
11 investigate reports of suspected abuse or neglect (as those
12 terms are defined in Section 3 of this Act) of patients or
13 residents in any mental health or developmental disabilities
14 facility operated by the Department of Human Services and
15 shall have authority to investigate and take immediate action
16 on reports of abuse or neglect of recipients, whether
17 patients or residents, in any mental health or developmental
18 disabilities facility or program that is licensed or
19 certified by the Department of Human Services (as successor
20 to the Department of Mental Health and Developmental
21 Disabilities) or that is funded by the Department of Human
22 Services (as successor to the Department of Mental Health and
23 Developmental Disabilities) and is not licensed or certified
24 by any agency of the State. At the specific, written request
25 of an agency of the State other than the Department of Human
26 Services (as successor to the Department of Mental Health and
27 Developmental Disabilities), the Inspector General may
28 cooperate in investigating reports of abuse and neglect of
29 persons with mental illness or persons with developmental
30 disabilities. The Inspector General shall have no
31 supervision over or involvement in routine, programmatic,
32 licensure, or certification operations of the Department of
33 Human Services or any of its funded agencies.
SB1854 Enrolled -422- LRB9215370EGfg
1 The Inspector General shall promulgate rules establishing
2 minimum requirements for reporting allegations of abuse and
3 neglect and initiating, conducting, and completing
4 investigations. The promulgated rules shall clearly set
5 forth that in instances where 2 or more State agencies could
6 investigate an allegation of abuse or neglect, the Inspector
7 General shall not conduct an investigation that is redundant
8 to an investigation conducted by another State agency. The
9 rules shall establish criteria for determining, based upon
10 the nature of the allegation, the appropriate method of
11 investigation, which may include, but need not be limited to,
12 site visits, telephone contacts, or requests for written
13 responses from agencies. The rules shall also clarify how the
14 Office of the Inspector General shall interact with the
15 licensing unit of the Department of Human Services in
16 investigations of allegations of abuse or neglect. Any
17 allegations or investigations of reports made pursuant to
18 this Act shall remain confidential until a final report is
19 completed. The resident or patient who allegedly was abused
20 or neglected and his or her legal guardian shall be informed
21 by the facility or agency of the report of alleged abuse or
22 neglect. Final reports regarding unsubstantiated or unfounded
23 allegations shall remain confidential, except that final
24 reports may be disclosed pursuant to Section 6 of this Act.
25 The Inspector General shall be appointed for a term of 4
26 years.
27 When the Office of the Inspector General has
28 substantiated a case of abuse or neglect, the Inspector
29 General shall include in the final report any mitigating or
30 aggravating circumstances that were identified during the
31 investigation. Upon determination that a report of neglect
32 is substantiated, the Inspector General shall then determine
33 whether such neglect rises to the level of egregious neglect.
34 (b) The Inspector General shall within 24 hours after
SB1854 Enrolled -423- LRB9215370EGfg
1 receiving a report of suspected abuse or neglect determine
2 whether the evidence indicates that any possible criminal act
3 has been committed. If he determines that a possible criminal
4 act has been committed, or that special expertise is required
5 in the investigation, he shall immediately notify the
6 Department of State Police. The Department of State Police
7 shall investigate any report indicating a possible murder,
8 rape, or other felony. All investigations conducted by the
9 Inspector General shall be conducted in a manner designed to
10 ensure the preservation of evidence for possible use in a
11 criminal prosecution.
12 (b-5) The Inspector General shall make a determination
13 to accept or reject a preliminary report of the investigation
14 of alleged abuse or neglect based on established
15 investigative procedures. Notice of the Inspector General's
16 determination must be given to the person who claims to be
17 the victim of the abuse or neglect, to the person or persons
18 alleged to have been responsible for abuse or neglect, and to
19 the facility or agency. The facility or agency or the person
20 or persons alleged to have been responsible for the abuse or
21 neglect and the person who claims to be the victim of the
22 abuse or neglect may request clarification or reconsideration
23 based on additional information. For cases where the
24 allegation of abuse or neglect is substantiated, the
25 Inspector General shall require the facility or agency to
26 submit a written response. The written response from a
27 facility or agency shall address in a concise and reasoned
28 manner the actions that the agency or facility will take or
29 has taken to protect the resident or patient from abuse or
30 neglect, prevent reoccurrences, and eliminate problems
31 identified and shall include implementation and completion
32 dates for all such action.
33 (c) The Inspector General shall, within 10 calendar days
34 after the transmittal date of a completed investigation where
SB1854 Enrolled -424- LRB9215370EGfg
1 abuse or neglect is substantiated or administrative action is
2 recommended, provide a complete report on the case to the
3 Secretary of Human Services and to the agency in which the
4 abuse or neglect is alleged to have happened. The complete
5 report shall include a written response from the agency or
6 facility operated by the State to the Inspector General that
7 addresses in a concise and reasoned manner the actions that
8 the agency or facility will take or has taken to protect the
9 resident or patient from abuse or neglect, prevent
10 reoccurrences, and eliminate problems identified and shall
11 include implementation and completion dates for all such
12 action. The Secretary of Human Services shall accept or
13 reject the response and establish how the Department will
14 determine whether the facility or program followed the
15 approved response. The Secretary may require Department
16 personnel to visit the facility or agency for training,
17 technical assistance, programmatic, licensure, or
18 certification purposes. Administrative action, including
19 sanctions, may be applied should the Secretary reject the
20 response or should the facility or agency fail to follow the
21 approved response. The facility or agency shall inform the
22 resident or patient and the legal guardian whether the
23 reported allegation was substantiated, unsubstantiated, or
24 unfounded. There shall be an appeals process for any person
25 or agency that is subject to any action based on a
26 recommendation or recommendations.
27 (d) The Inspector General may recommend to the
28 Departments of Public Health and Human Services sanctions to
29 be imposed against mental health and developmental
30 disabilities facilities under the jurisdiction of the
31 Department of Human Services for the protection of residents,
32 including appointment of on-site monitors or receivers,
33 transfer or relocation of residents, and closure of units.
34 The Inspector General may seek the assistance of the Attorney
SB1854 Enrolled -425- LRB9215370EGfg
1 General or any of the several State's attorneys in imposing
2 such sanctions.
3 (e) The Inspector General shall establish and conduct
4 periodic training programs for Department employees
5 concerning the prevention and reporting of neglect and abuse.
6 (f) The Inspector General shall at all times be granted
7 access to any mental health or developmental disabilities
8 facility operated by the Department, shall establish and
9 conduct unannounced site visits to those facilities at least
10 once annually, and shall be granted access, for the purpose
11 of investigating a report of abuse or neglect, to any
12 facility or program funded by the Department that is subject
13 under the provisions of this Section to investigation by the
14 Inspector General for a report of abuse or neglect.
15 (g) Nothing in this Section shall limit investigations
16 by the Department of Human Services that may otherwise be
17 required by law or that may be necessary in that Department's
18 capacity as the central administrative authority responsible
19 for the operation of State mental health and developmental
20 disability facilities.
21 (g-5) After notice and an opportunity for a hearing that
22 is separate and distinct from the Office of the Inspector
23 General's appeals process as implemented under subsection (c)
24 of this Section, the Inspector General shall report to the
25 Department of Public Health's nurse aide registry under
26 Section 3-206.01 of the Nursing Home Care Act the identity of
27 individuals against whom there has been a substantiated
28 finding of physical or sexual abuse or egregious neglect of a
29 service recipient.
30 Nothing in this subsection shall diminish or impair the
31 rights of a person who is a member of a collective bargaining
32 unit pursuant to the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act or
33 pursuant to any federal labor statute. An individual who is a
34 member of a collective bargaining unit as described above
SB1854 Enrolled -426- LRB9215370EGfg
1 shall not be reported to the Department of Public Health's
2 nurse aide registry until the exhaustion of that individual's
3 grievance and arbitration rights, or until 3 months after the
4 initiation of the grievance process, whichever occurs first,
5 provided that the Department of Human Services' hearing under
6 subsection (c), that is separate and distinct from the Office
7 of the Inspector General's appeals process, has concluded.
8 Notwithstanding anything hereinafter or previously provided,
9 if an action taken by an employer against an individual as a
10 result of the circumstances that led to a finding of physical
11 or sexual abuse or egregious neglect is later overturned
12 under a grievance or arbitration procedure provided for in
13 Section 8 of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act or under
14 a collective bargaining agreement, the report must be removed
15 from the registry.
16 The Department of Human Services shall promulgate or
17 amend rules as necessary or appropriate to establish
18 procedures for reporting to the registry, including the
19 definition of egregious neglect, procedures for notice to the
20 individual and victim, appeal and hearing procedures, and
21 petition for removal of the report from the registry. The
22 portion of the rules pertaining to hearings shall provide
23 that, at the hearing, both parties may present written and
24 oral evidence. The Department shall be required to establish
25 by a preponderance of the evidence that the Office of the
26 Inspector General's finding of physical or sexual abuse or
27 egregious neglect warrants reporting to the Department of
28 Public Health's nurse aide registry under Section 3-206.01 of
29 the Nursing Home Care Act.
30 Notice to the individual shall include a clear and
31 concise statement of the grounds on which the report to the
32 registry is based and notice of the opportunity for a hearing
33 to contest the report. The Department of Human Services shall
34 provide the notice by certified mail to the last known
SB1854 Enrolled -427- LRB9215370EGfg
1 address of the individual. The notice shall give the
2 individual an opportunity to contest the report in a hearing
3 before the Department of Human Services or to submit a
4 written response to the findings instead of requesting a
5 hearing. If the individual does not request a hearing or if
6 after notice and a hearing the Department of Human Services
7 finds that the report is valid, the finding shall be included
8 as part of the registry, as well as a brief statement from
9 the reported individual if he or she chooses to make a
10 statement. The Department of Public Health shall make
11 available to the public information reported to the registry.
12 In a case of inquiries concerning an individual listed in the
13 registry, any information disclosed concerning a finding of
14 abuse or neglect shall also include disclosure of the
15 individual's brief statement in the registry relating to the
16 reported finding or include a clear and accurate summary of
17 the statement.
18 At any time after the report of the registry, an
19 individual may petition the Department of Human Services for
20 removal from the registry of the finding against him or her.
21 Upon receipt of such a petition, the Department of Human
22 Services shall conduct an investigation and hearing on the
23 petition. Upon completion of the investigation and hearing,
24 the Department of Human Services shall report the removal of
25 the finding to the registry unless the Department of Human
26 Services determines that removal is not in the public
27 interest.

25 this finding by certified mail sent to the address contained
26 in the registry. The notice shall give the individual an
27 opportunity to contest the finding in a hearing before the
28 Department or to submit a written response to the findings in
29 lieu of requesting a hearing. If, after a hearing or if the
30 individual does not request a hearing, the Department finds
31 that the individual abused a resident, neglected a resident,
32 or misappropriated resident property in a facility, the
33 finding shall be included as part of the registry as well as
34 a brief statement from the individual, if he or she chooses
SB1854 Enrolled -429- LRB9215370EGfg
1 to make such a statement. The Department shall make
2 information in the registry available to the public. In the
3 case of inquiries to the registry concerning an individual
4 listed in the registry, any information disclosed concerning
5 such a finding shall also include disclosure of any statement
6 in the registry relating to the finding or a clear and
7 accurate summary of the statement.
8 (b) The Department shall add to the nurse aide registry
9 records of findings as reported by the Inspector General or
10 remove from the nurse aide registry records of findings as
11 reported by the Department of Human Services, under Section
12 6.2 of the Abused Abuse and Neglected Long Term Care Facility

3 Sec. 155.38. 155.37. Use of credit reports in connection
4 with certain policies.
5 (a) This Section applies to policies of insurance
6 defined in subsections (a), (b), and (c) of Section 143.13,
7 except that this Section does not apply to those personal
8 lines policies defined in subsection (c) of Section 143.13

11 IX 1/2.
12 (b) An insurance company authorized to do business in

14 insurance solely on the basis of a credit report. An offer
15 by an insurance company to write a policy through an insurer
16 that is an affiliate, as defined in Section 131.1 of this
17 Code, with continuous coverage does not constitute a refusal
18 to issue a policy or a nonrenewal within the meaning of this

20 regarding a consumer's credit history, credit capacity, or
21 credit worthiness that has been assembled or evaluated by a

27 or insured.
28 (d) If a credit report is used in conjunction with other
29 criteria to refuse to issue or renew a policy of insurance,
30 the insurer shall provide the applicant or policyholder with
31 a notice of the underwriting action taken. For purposes of
32 this Section, compliance with the notification requirements
33 of the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681 et

4 (215 ILCS 5/370c) (from Ch. 73, par. 982c)
5 Sec. 370c. Mental and emotional disorders.
6 (a) (1) On and after the effective date of this Section,
7 every insurer which delivers, issues for delivery or renews
8 or modifies group A&H policies providing coverage for
9 hospital or medical treatment or services for illness on an
10 expense-incurred basis shall offer to the applicant or group
11 policyholder subject to the insurers standards of
12 insurability, coverage for reasonable and necessary treatment
13 and services for mental, emotional or nervous disorders or
14 conditions, other than serious mental illnesses as defined in
15 item (2) of subsection (b), up to the limits provided in the
16 policy for other disorders or conditions, except (i) the
17 insured may be required to pay up to 50% of expenses incurred
18 as a result of the treatment or services, and (ii) the annual
19 benefit limit may be limited to the lesser of $10,000 or 25%
20 of the lifetime policy limit.
21 (2) Each insured that is covered for mental, emotional
22 or nervous disorders or conditions shall be free to select
23 the physician licensed to practice medicine in all its
24 branches, licensed clinical psychologist, licensed clinical
25 social worker, or licensed clinical professional counselor of
26 his choice to treat such disorders, and the insurer shall pay
27 the covered charges of such physician licensed to practice
28 medicine in all its branches, licensed clinical psychologist,
29 licensed clinical social worker, or licensed clinical
30 professional counselor up to the limits of coverage, provided
31 (i) the disorder or condition treated is covered by the
32 policy, and (ii) the physician, licensed psychologist,
33 licensed clinical social worker, or licensed clinical
SB1854 Enrolled -434- LRB9215370EGfg
1 professional counselor is authorized to provide said services
2 under the statutes of this State and in accordance with
3 accepted principles of his profession.
4 (3) Insofar as this Section applies solely to licensed
5 clinical social workers and licensed clinical professional
6 counselors, those persons who may provide services to
7 individuals shall do so after the licensed clinical social
8 worker or licensed clinical professional counselor has
9 informed the patient of the desirability of the patient
10 conferring with the patient's primary care physician and the
11 licensed clinical social worker or licensed clinical
12 professional counselor has provided written notification to
13 the patient's primary care physician, if any, that services
14 are being provided to the patient. That notification may,
15 however, be waived by the patient on a written form. Those
16 forms shall be retained by the licensed clinical social
17 worker or licensed clinical professional counselor for a
18 period of not less than 5 years.
19 (b) (1) An insurer that provides coverage for hospital
20 or medical expenses under a group policy of accident and

22 issued, or renewed after the effective date of this
23 amendatory Act of the 92nd General Assembly shall provide
24 coverage under the policy for treatment of serious mental
25 illness under the same terms and conditions as coverage for
26 hospital or medical expenses related to other illnesses and
27 diseases. The coverage required under this Section must
28 provide for same durational limits, amount limits,
29 deductibles, and co-insurance requirements for serious mental
30 illness as are provided for other illnesses and diseases.
31 This subsection does not apply to coverage provided to
32 employees by employers who have 50 or fewer employees.
33 (2) "Serious mental illness" means the following
34 psychiatric illnesses as defined in the most current edition
SB1854 Enrolled -435- LRB9215370EGfg
1 of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) published by
2 the American Psychiatric Association:
3 (A) schizophrenia;
4 (B) paranoid and other psychotic disorders;
5 (C) bipolar disorders (hypomanic, manic,
6 depressive, and mixed);
7 (D) major depressive disorders (single episode or
8 recurrent);
9 (E) schizoaffective disorders (bipolar or
10 depressive);
11 (F) pervasive developmental disorders;
12 (G) obsessive-compulsive disorders;
13 (H) depression in childhood and adolescence; and
14 (I) panic disorder.
15 (3) Upon request of the reimbursing insurer, a provider
16 of treatment of serious mental illness shall furnish medical
17 records or other necessary data that substantiate that
18 initial or continued treatment is at all times medically
19 necessary. An insurer shall provide a mechanism for the
20 timely review by a provider holding the same license and
21 practicing in the same specialty as the patient's provider,
22 who is unaffiliated with the insurer, jointly selected by the
23 patient (or the patient's next of kin or legal representative
24 if the patient is unable to act for himself or herself), the
25 patient's provider, and the insurer in the event of a dispute
26 between the insurer and patient's provider regarding the
27 medical necessity of a treatment proposed by a patient's
28 provider. If the reviewing provider determines the treatment
29 to be medically necessary, the insurer shall provide
30 reimbursement for the treatment. Future contractual or
31 employment actions by the insurer regarding the patient's
32 provider may not be based on the provider's participation in
33 this procedure. Nothing prevents the insured from agreeing in
34 writing to continue treatment at his or her expense. When
SB1854 Enrolled -436- LRB9215370EGfg
1 making a determination of the medical necessity for a
2 treatment modality for serous mental illness, an insurer must
3 make the determination in a manner that is consistent with
4 the manner used to make that determination with respect to
5 other diseases or illnesses covered under the policy,
6 including an appeals process.
7 (4) A group health benefit plan:
8 (A) shall provide coverage based upon medical
9 necessity for the following treatment of mental illness
10 in each calendar year;
11 (i) 45 days of inpatient treatment; and
12 (ii) 35 visits for outpatient treatment
13 including group and individual outpatient treatment;
14 (B) may not include a lifetime limit on the number
15 of days of inpatient treatment or the number of
16 outpatient visits covered under the plan; and
17 (C) shall include the same amount limits,
18 deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance factors for
19 serious mental illness as for physical illness.
20 (5) An issuer of a group health benefit plan may not
21 count toward the number of outpatient visits required to be
22 covered under this Section an outpatient visit for the
23 purpose of medication management and shall cover the
24 outpatient visits under the same terms and conditions as it
25 covers outpatient visits for the treatment of physical
26 illness.
27 (6) An issuer of a group health benefit plan may provide
28 or offer coverage required under this Section through a
29 managed care plan.
30 (7) This Section shall not be interpreted to require a
31 group health benefit plan to provide coverage for treatment
32 of:
33 (A) an addiction to a controlled substance or
34 cannabis that is used in violation of law; or
SB1854 Enrolled -437- LRB9215370EGfg

28 enumerated in Class 1 of Section 4 shall in no way limit,
29 reduce, or impair the protections and remedies already

3 registered firm shall own and have the exclusive use of

17 insurer or is guilty of conversion of the insured's or
18 insurer's premiums or its license is revoked by or
19 surrendered to the Department;
20 (6) to any insurance company's obligations under
21 Sections 143.17 and 143.17a of this Code; or
22 (7) to any insurer that, separate from a producer
23 or registered firm, creates, develops, compiles, and
24 assembles its own, identifiable expirations as defined in
25 subsection (a).
26 For purposes of this Section, an insurance producer shall
27 be deemed to have agreed to act primarily for one company or

30 commissions from one company or a group of affiliated
31 companies or (ii) places 75% or more of his or her policies

22 authorized or ratified by the board of directors or by a
23 committee thereof charged with the duty of supervising
24 investments and loans. Nothing contained in this subsection
25 shall prevent the board of directors of any such organization
26 from depositing any of its securities with a committee
27 appointed for the purpose of protecting the interest of
28 security holders or with the authorities of any state where
29 it is necessary to do so in order to secure permission to

27 shall not be deemed to have a financial interest by reason of
28 an interest that is held directly or indirectly through the
29 ownership of equity interests representing less than 2% of
30 all outstanding equity interests issued by a person that is a
31 party to the transaction, or solely by reason of that
32 individual's position as a director or officer of a person
33 that is a party to the transaction.

SB1854 Enrolled -445- LRB9215370EGfg

6 over the life of the property or, at the option of the
7 company, less depreciation computed on any basis
8 permitted under the Internal Revenue Code and regulations
9 thereunder. Such investments that have been affected by
10 permanent declines in value shall be valued at not more
11 than market value.
12 (5) Any investment, including real property, not
13 purchased by the Health Maintenance Organization but
14 acquired in satisfaction of a debt or otherwise shall be
15 valued in accordance with the applicable procedures for
16 that type of investment contained in this subsection.
17 For purposes of applying the valuation procedures, the

19 the time the investment is acquired or, in the case of
20 any investment acquired in satisfaction of debt, the
21 amount of the debt, including interest, taxes and

5 negotiations for the purchase of land rights-of-way and
6 easements, including procedures for providing information to
7 the public and affected landowners concerning the project and
8 the right-of-way easements sought in connection therewith.
9 Such rules may be made applicable to interstate,
10 competitive intrastate and noncompetitive intrastate
11 facilities, without regard to whether such facilities or the
12 telecommunications carrier proposing to construct and operate
13 them would otherwise be subject to the Illinois Commerce
14 Commission's jurisdiction under the Public Utilities Act, as
15 now or hereafter amended. However, as to facilities used to
16 provide exclusively interstate services or competitive
17 intrastate services or both, nothing in this Section confers
18 any power upon the Commission (i) to require the disclosure
19 of proprietary, competitively sensitive, or cost information
20 or information not known to the telecommunications carrier,
21 (ii) to determine whether, or conduct hearings regarding
22 whether, any proposed fiber optic or other facilities should
23 or should not be constructed and operated, or (iii) to
24 determine or specify, or conduct hearings concerning, the
25 price or other terms or conditions of the purchase of the
26 right-of-way easements sought. With respect to facilities
27 used to provide any intrastate services classified in the
28 condemnor's tariff as noncompetitive under Section 13-502 of
29 the Public Utilities Act, the rulemaking powers conferred
30 upon the Commission under this Section are in addition to any
31 rulemaking powers arising under the Public Utilities Act.
32 No telecommunications carrier shall exercise the power to
33 condemn private property until it has first substantially
34 complied with such rules with respect to the property sought
SB1854 Enrolled -464- LRB9215370EGfg
1 to be condemned. If such rules call for providing notice or
2 information before or during negotiations, a failure to
3 provide such notice or information shall not constitute a
4 waiver of the rights granted in this Section, but the
5 telecommunications carrier shall be liable for all reasonable
6 attorney's fees of that landowner resulting from such
7 failure.

18 representative, agent, or employee of such licensee shall
19 sell, give, or deliver alcoholic liquor to any person under
20 the age of 21 years or to any intoxicated person, except as
21 provided in Section 6-16.1. (ii) No express company, common
22 carrier, or contract carrier nor any representative, agent,

27 container clearly labeled as containing alcoholic liquor and
28 labeled as requiring signature of an adult of at least 21
29 years of age to any person in this State under the age of 21
30 years. An express company, common carrier, or contract
31 carrier that carries or transports such alcoholic liquor for
32 delivery within this State shall obtain a signature at the
33 time of delivery acknowledging receipt of the alcoholic
SB1854 Enrolled -493- LRB9215370EGfg

6 deliver the alcoholic liquor to a residential address without
7 the acknowledgment of the consignee and without first
8 obtaining a signature at the time of the delivery by an adult
9 who is at least 21 years of age. A signature of a person on

12 Any express company, common carrier, or contract carrier that
13 transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State
14 that violates this item (ii) of this subsection (a) by
15 delivering alcoholic liquor without the acknowledgement of

19 company, common carrier, or contract carrier that transports
20 alcoholic liquor within this State shall be fined not more
21 than $1,001 for a first offense, not more than $5,000 for a
22 second offense, and not more than $10,000 for a third or
23 subsequent offense. An express company, common carrier, or
24 contract carrier shall be held vicariously liable for the
25 actions of its representatives, agents, or employees. For
26 purposes of this Act, in addition to other methods authorized
27 by law, an express company, common carrier, or contract
28 carrier shall be considered served with process when a
29 representative, agent, or employee alleged to have violated
30 this Act is personally served. Each shipment of alcoholic
31 liquor delivered in violation of this item (ii) of this
32 subsection (a) constitutes a separate offense. (iii) No
33 person, after purchasing or otherwise obtaining alcoholic
34 liquor, shall sell, give, or deliver such alcoholic liquor to
SB1854 Enrolled -494- LRB9215370EGfg
1 another person under the age of 21 years, except in the
2 performance of a religious ceremony or service. Except as

4 carrier, or contract carrier that transports alcoholic liquor
5 within this State that violates the provisions of item (i),
6 (ii), or (iii) of this paragraph of this subsection (a) is
7 guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and the sentence shall
8 include, but shall not be limited to, a fine of not less than
9 $500.
10 If a licensee or officer, associate, member,
11 representative, agent, or employee of the licensee, or a
12 representative, agent, or employee of an express company,
13 common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or
14 transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State,
15 is prosecuted under this paragraph of this subsection (a) for
16 selling, giving, or delivering alcoholic liquor to a person
17 under the age of 21 years, the person under 21 years of age
18 who attempted to buy or receive the alcoholic liquor may be
19 prosecuted pursuant to Section 6-20 of this Act, unless the
20 person under 21 years of age was acting under the authority
21 of a law enforcement agency, the Illinois Liquor Control
22 Commission, or a local liquor control commissioner pursuant
23 to a plan or action to investigate, patrol, or conduct any
24 similar enforcement action.
25 For the purpose of preventing the violation of this
26 Section, any licensee, or his agent or employee, or a
27 representative, agent, or employee of an express company,
28 common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or
29 transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State,
30 shall refuse to sell, deliver, or serve alcoholic beverages
31 to any person who is unable to produce adequate written
32 evidence of identity and of the fact that he or she is over
33 the age of 21 years, if requested by the licensee, agent,
34 employee, or representative.
SB1854 Enrolled -495- LRB9215370EGfg

3 municipal government, or subdivision or agency thereof,
4 including, but not limited to, a motor vehicle operator's
5 license, a registration certificate issued under the Federal
6 Selective Service Act, or an identification card issued to a

10 common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or
11 transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State
12 demanded, was shown and reasonably relied upon such written
13 evidence in any transaction forbidden by this Section is an
14 affirmative defense in any criminal prosecution therefor or
15 to any proceedings for the suspension or revocation of any
16 license based thereon. It shall not, however, be an
17 affirmative defense if the agent or employee accepted the
18 written evidence knowing it to be false or fraudulent. If a
19 false or fraudulent Illinois driver's license or Illinois
20 identification card is presented by a person less than 21
21 years of age to a licensee or the licensee's agent or
22 employee for the purpose of ordering, purchasing, attempting
23 to purchase, or otherwise obtaining or attempting to obtain
24 the serving of any alcoholic beverage, the law enforcement
25 officer or agency investigating the incident shall, upon the
26 conviction of the person who presented the fraudulent license
27 or identification, make a report of the matter to the
28 Secretary of State on a form provided by the Secretary of
29 State.
30 However, no agent or employee of the licensee or employee
31 of an express company, common carrier, or contract carrier
32 that carries or transports alcoholic liquor for delivery
33 within this State shall be disciplined or discharged for
34 selling or furnishing liquor to a person under 21 years of
SB1854 Enrolled -496- LRB9215370EGfg
1 age if the agent or employee demanded and was shown, before

4 a federal, state, county or municipal government, or
5 subdivision or agency thereof, including but not limited to a
6 motor vehicle operator's license, a registration certificate
7 issued under the Federal Selective Service Act, or an
8 identification card issued to a member of the Armed Forces.
9 This paragraph, however, shall not apply if the agent or
10 employee accepted the written evidence knowing it to be false
11 or fraudulent.
12 Any person who sells, gives, or furnishes to any person
13 under the age of 21 years any false or fraudulent written,
14 printed, or photostatic evidence of the age and identity of
15 such person or who sells, gives or furnishes to any person
16 under the age of 21 years evidence of age and identification
17 of any other person is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and
18 the person's sentence shall include, but shall not be limited
19 to, a fine of not less than $500.
20 Any person under the age of 21 years who presents or
21 offers to any licensee, his agent or employee, any written,
22 printed or photostatic evidence of age and identity that is
23 false, fraudulent, or not actually his or her own for the
24 purpose of ordering, purchasing, attempting to purchase or
25 otherwise procuring or attempting to procure, the serving of
26 any alcoholic beverage, who falsely states in writing that he
27 or she is at least 21 years of age when receiving alcoholic
28 liquor from a representative, agent, or employee of an
29 express company, common carrier, or contract carrier, or who
30 has in his or her possession any false or fraudulent written,
31 printed, or photostatic evidence of age and identity, is
32 guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and the person's sentence
33 shall include, but shall not be limited to, the following: a
34 fine of not less than $500 and at least 25 hours of community
SB1854 Enrolled -497- LRB9215370EGfg
1 service. If possible, any community service shall be
2 performed for an alcohol abuse prevention program.
3 Any person under the age of 21 years who has any
4 alcoholic beverage in his or her possession on any street or
5 highway or in any public place or in any place open to the
6 public is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. This Section does
7 not apply to possession by a person under the age of 21 years
8 making a delivery of an alcoholic beverage in pursuance of
9 the order of his or her parent or in pursuance of his or her
10 employment.
11 (a-1) It is unlawful for any parent or guardian to
12 permit his or her residence to be used by an invitee of the
13 parent's child or the guardian's ward, if the invitee is
14 under the age of 21, in a manner that constitutes a violation
15 of this Section. A parent or guardian is deemed to have
16 permitted his or her residence to be used in violation of
17 this Section if he or she knowingly authorizes, enables, or
18 permits such use to occur by failing to control access to
19 either the residence or the alcoholic liquor maintained in
20 the residence. Any person who violates this subsection (a-1)
21 is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and the person's sentence
22 shall include, but shall not be limited to, a fine of not
23 less than $500. Nothing in this subsection (a-1) shall be
24 construed to prohibit the giving of alcoholic liquor to a
25 person under the age of 21 years in the performance of a
26 religious ceremony or service.
27 (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section whoever
28 violates this Section shall, in addition to other penalties
29 provided for in this Act, be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
30 (c) Any person shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor
31 where he or she knowingly permits a gathering at a residence

4 (2) the possession or consumption of the alcohol by
5 the person under 21 is not otherwise permitted by this
6 Act; and
7 (3) the person occupying the residence knows that

9 intoxicated condition.
10 For the purposes of this subsection (c) where the
11 residence has an owner and a tenant or lessee, there is a
12 rebuttable presumption that the residence is occupied only by
13 the tenant or lessee.
14 (d) Any person who rents a hotel or motel room from the
15 proprietor or agent thereof for the purpose of or with the
16 knowledge that such room shall be used for the consumption of
17 alcoholic liquor by persons under the age of 21 years shall
18 be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.

SB1854 Enrolled -499- LRB9215370EGfg
1 and renumbering multiple versions of Section 12-10.5 as
2 follows:
3 (305 ILCS 5/4-1.7) (from Ch. 23, par. 4-1.7)
4 Sec. 4-1.7. Enforcement of Parental Child Support
5 Obligation.) If the parent or parents of the child are
6 failing to meet or are delinquent in their legal obligation
7 to support the child, the parent or other person having
8 custody of the child or the Illinois Department of Public Aid
9 may request the law enforcement officer authorized or
10 directed by law to so act to file action for the enforcement
11 of such remedies as the law provides for the fulfillment of
12 the child support obligation.
13 If a parent has a judicial remedy against the other
14 parent to compel child support, or if, as the result of an
15 action initiated by or in behalf of one parent against the
16 other, a child support order has been entered in respect to
17 which there is noncompliance or delinquency, or where the
18 order so entered may be changed upon petition to the court to
19 provide additional support, the parent or other person having
20 custody of the child or the Illinois Department of Public Aid
21 may request the appropriate law enforcement officer to seek
22 enforcement of the remedy, or of the support order, or a
23 change therein to provide additional support. If the law
24 enforcement officer is not authorized by law to so act in
25 these instances, the parent, or if so authorized by law the
26 other person having custody of the child, or the Illinois
27 Department of Public Aid may initiate an action to enforce
28 these remedies.
29 A parent or other person having custody of the child must
30 comply with the requirements of Title IV of the federal
31 Social Security Act, and the regulations duly promulgated
32 thereunder, and any rules promulgated by the Illinois
33 Department regarding enforcement of the child support
SB1854 Enrolled -500- LRB9215370EGfg
1 obligation. The Illinois Department of Public Aid and the
2 Department of Human Services may provide by rule for the
3 grant or continuation of aid to the person for a temporary
4 period if he or she accepts counseling or other services
5 designed to increase his or her motivation to seek
6 enforcement of the child support obligation.
7 In addition to any other definition of failure or refusal
8 to comply with the requirements of Title IV of the federal
9 Social Security Act, or Illinois Department rule, in the case
10 of failure to attend court hearings, the parent or other
11 person can show cooperation by attending a court hearing or,
12 if a court hearing cannot be scheduled within 14 days
13 following the court hearing that was missed, by signing a
14 statement that the parent or other person is now willing to
15 cooperate in the child support enforcement process and will
16 appear at any later scheduled court date. The parent or
17 other person can show cooperation by signing such a statement
18 only once. If failure to attend the court hearing or other
19 failure to cooperate results in the case being dismissed,
20 such a statement may be signed after 2 months.
21 No denial or termination of medical assistance pursuant
22 to this Section shall commence during pregnancy of the parent
23 or other person having custody of the child or for 30 days
24 after the termination of such pregnancy. The termination of
25 medical assistance may commence thereafter if the Illinois
26 Department of Public Aid determines that the failure or
27 refusal to comply with this Section persists. Postponement
28 of denial or termination of medical assistance during
29 pregnancy under this paragraph shall be effective only to the
30 extent it does not conflict with federal law or regulation.
31 Any evidence a parent or other person having custody of
32 the child gives in order to comply with the requirements of
33 this Section shall not render him or her liable to
34 prosecution under Sections 11-7 or 11-8 of the "Criminal Code
SB1854 Enrolled -501- LRB9215370EGfg
1 of 1961", approved July 28, 1961, as amended.
2 When so requested, the Illinois Department of Public Aid
3 and the Department of Human Services shall provide such
4 services and assistance as the law enforcement officer may
5 require in connection with the filing of any action
6 hereunder.
7 The Illinois Department of Public Aid and the Department
8 of Human Services, and as an expense of administration, may
9 also provide applicants for and recipients of aid with such
10 services and assistance, including assumption of the
11 reasonable costs of prosecuting any action or proceeding, as
12 may be necessary to enable them to enforce the child support
13 liability required hereunder.
14 Nothing in this Section shall be construed as a
15 requirement that an applicant or recipient file an action for
16 dissolution of marriage against his or her spouse.

29 outpatient hospital care, home health services, treatment for
30 alcoholism and substance abuse, and other services determined
31 necessary by the Illinois Department by rule for delivery by

23 sponsors may prescribe reasonable additional qualifications
24 for participation by medical providers, only with the prior
25 written approval of the Illinois Department.
26 Nothing in this Section shall limit the free choice of
27 practitioners, hospitals, and other providers of medical
28 services by clients. In order to ensure patient freedom of
29 choice, the Illinois Department shall immediately promulgate
30 all rules and take all other necessary actions so that
31 provided services may be accessed from therapeutically

22 by the dispenser of such medical services. No such claims for
23 reimbursement shall be approved for payment by the Illinois
24 Department without such proof of receipt, unless the Illinois
25 Department shall have put into effect and shall be operating
26 a system of post-payment audit and review which shall, on a
27 sampling basis, be deemed adequate by the Illinois Department
28 to assure that such drugs, dentures, prosthetic devices and
29 eyeglasses for which payment is being made are actually being
30 received by eligible recipients. Within 90 days after the

29 Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, as amended, and
30 shall implement such guidelines by rules governing their
31 application.

16 survivors.
17 (b) (1) When benefits are provided or will be provided
18 to a beneficiary under this Code because of an injury for
19 which another person is liable, or for which a carrier is
20 liable in accordance with the provisions of any policy of
21 insurance issued pursuant to the Illinois Insurance Code, the
22 Illinois Department shall have a right to recover from such
23 person or carrier the reasonable value of benefits so
24 provided. The Attorney General may, to enforce such right,
25 institute and prosecute legal proceedings against the third
26 person or carrier who may be liable for the injury in an
27 appropriate court, either in the name of the Illinois
28 Department or in the name of the injured person, his
29 guardian, personal representative, estate, or survivors.
30 (2) The Department may:
31 (A) compromise or settle and release any such claim
32 for benefits provided under this Code, or
33 (B) waive any such claims for benefits provided
34 under this Code, in whole or in part, for the convenience

1 of the Department or if the Department determines that
2 collection would result in undue hardship upon the person
3 who suffered the injury or, in a wrongful death action,
4 upon the heirs of the deceased.
5 (3) No action taken on behalf of the Department pursuant
6 to this Section or any judgment rendered in such action shall
7 be a bar to any action upon the claim or cause of action of
8 the beneficiary, his guardian, conservator, personal
9 representative, estate, dependents or survivors against the
10 third person who may be liable for the injury, or shall
11 operate to deny to the beneficiary the recovery for that
12 portion of any damages not covered hereunder.
13 (c) (1) When an action is brought by the Department
14 pursuant to subsection (b), it shall be commenced within the
15 period prescribed by Article XIII of the Code of Civil
16 Procedure.
17 However, the Department may not commence the action prior
18 to 5 months before the end of the applicable period
19 prescribed by Article XIII of the Code of Civil Procedure.
20 Thirty days prior to commencing an action, the Department
21 shall notify the beneficiary of the Department's intent to
22 commence such an action.
23 (2) The death of the beneficiary does not abate any
24 right of action established by subsection (b).
25 (3) When an action or claim is brought by persons
26 entitled to bring such actions or assert such claims against
27 a third person who may be liable for causing the death of a
28 beneficiary, any settlement, judgment or award obtained is
29 subject to the Department's claim for reimbursement of the
30 benefits provided to the beneficiary under this Code.
31 (4) When the action or claim is brought by the
32 beneficiary alone and the beneficiary incurs a personal

34 Department's claim for reimbursement of the benefits provided
SB1854 Enrolled -524- LRB9215370EGfg
1 to the beneficiary shall be the full amount of benefits paid
2 on behalf of the beneficiary under this Code less a pro rata
3 share which represents the Department's reasonable share of
4 attorney's fees paid by the beneficiary and that portion of
5 the cost of litigation expenses determined by multiplying by
6 the ratio of the full amount of the expenditures of the full
7 amount of the judgment, award or settlement.
8 (d) (1) If either the beneficiary or the Department
9 brings an action or claim against such third party or
10 carrier, the beneficiary or the Department shall within 30
11 days of filing the action give to the other written notice by
12 personal service or registered mail of the action or claim
13 and of the name of the court in which the action or claim is
14 brought. Proof of such notice shall be filed in such action
15 or claim. If an action or claim is brought by either the
16 Department or the beneficiary, the other may, at any time
17 before trial on the facts, become a party to such action or
18 claim or shall consolidate his action or claim with the other
19 if brought independently.
20 (2) If an action or claim is brought by the Department
21 pursuant to subsection (b)(1), written notice to the
22 beneficiary, guardian, personal representative, estate or
23 survivor given pursuant to this Section shall advise him of
24 his right to intervene in the proceeding, his right to obtain
25 a private attorney of his choice and the Department's right
26 to recover the reasonable value of the benefits provided.
27 (e) In the event of judgment or award in a suit or claim
28 against such third person or carrier:
29 (1) If the action or claim is prosecuted by the
30 beneficiary alone, the court shall first order paid from any
31 judgment or award the reasonable litigation expenses incurred
32 in preparation and prosecution of such action or claim,
33 together with reasonable attorney's fees, when an attorney
34 has been retained. After payment of such expenses and
SB1854 Enrolled -525- LRB9215370EGfg
1 attorney's fees the court shall, on the application of the
2 Department, allow as a first lien against the amount of such
3 judgment or award the amount of the Department's expenditures
4 for the benefit of the beneficiary under this Code, as
5 provided in subsection (c)(4).
6 (2) If the action or claim is prosecuted both by the
7 beneficiary and the Department, the court shall first order
8 paid from any judgment or award the reasonable litigation
9 expenses incurred in preparation and prosecution of such
10 action or claim, together with reasonable attorney's fees for
11 plaintiffs attorneys based solely on the services rendered
12 for the benefit of the beneficiary. After payment of such
13 expenses and attorney's fees, the court shall apply out of
14 the balance of such judgment or award an amount sufficient to
15 reimburse the Department the full amount of benefits paid on
16 behalf of the beneficiary under this Code.
17 (f) The court shall, upon further application at any
18 time before the judgment or award is satisfied, allow as a
19 further lien the amount of any expenditures of the Department
20 in payment of additional benefits arising out of the same
21 cause of action or claim provided on behalf of the
22 beneficiary under this Code, when such benefits were provided
23 or became payable subsequent to the original order.
24 (g) No judgment, award, or settlement in any action or
25 claim by a beneficiary to recover damages for injuries, when
26 the Department has an interest, shall be satisfied without
27 first giving the Department notice and a reasonable
28 opportunity to perfect and satisfy its his lien.
29 (h) When the Department has perfected a lien upon a
30 judgment or award in favor of a beneficiary against any third
31 party for an injury for which the beneficiary has received
32 benefits under this Code, the Department shall be entitled to
33 a writ of execution as lien claimant to enforce payment of
34 said lien against such third party with interest and other
SB1854 Enrolled -526- LRB9215370EGfg
1 accruing costs as in the case of other executions. In the
2 event the amount of such judgment or award so recovered has
3 been paid to the beneficiary, the Department shall be
4 entitled to a writ of execution against such beneficiary to
5 the extent of the Department's lien, with interest and other
6 accruing costs as in the case of other executions.
7 (i) Except as otherwise provided in this Section,
8 notwithstanding any other provision of law, the entire amount
9 of any settlement of the injured beneficiary's action or
10 claim, with or without suit, is subject to the Department's
11 claim for reimbursement of the benefits provided and any lien
12 filed pursuant thereto to the same extent and subject to the
13 same limitations as in Section 11-22 of this Code.

11 barred from participation for at least one year. At the end
12 of one year a vendor who has been terminated may apply for
13 reinstatement to the program. Upon proper application to be
14 reinstated such vendor may be deemed eligible by the Director
15 providing that such vendor meets the requirements for
16 eligibility under this Code. If such vendor is deemed not
17 eligible for reinstatement, he shall be barred from again
18 applying for reinstatement for one year from the date his
19 application for reinstatement is denied.
20 A vendor whose termination from participation in the
21 Illinois medical assistance program under Article V was based
22 solely on an action by a governmental entity other than the
23 Illinois Department may, upon reinstatement by that
24 governmental entity or upon reversal of the termination,
25 apply for rescission of the termination from participation in
26 the Illinois medical assistance program. Upon proper
27 application for rescission, the vendor may be deemed eligible
28 by the Director if the vendor meets the requirements for
29 eligibility under this Code.
30 If a vendor has been terminated and reinstated to the
31 medical assistance program under Article V and the vendor is
32 terminated a second or subsequent time from the medical
33 assistance program, the vendor shall be barred from

2 the program. Upon application to be reinstated, the vendor
3 may be deemed eligible if the vendor meets the requirements
4 for eligibility under this Code. If the vendor is deemed not
5 eligible for reinstatement, the vendor shall be barred from
6 again applying for reinstatement for 2 years from the date
7 the vendor's application for reinstatement is denied.
8 (E) The Illinois Department may recover money improperly
9 or erroneously paid, or overpayments, either by setoff,
10 crediting against future billings or by requiring direct
11 repayment to the Illinois Department.
12 (F) The Illinois Department may withhold payments to any
13 vendor during the pendency of any proceeding under this
14 Section except that if a final administrative decision has
15 not been issued within 120 days of the initiation of such
16 proceedings, unless delay has been caused by the vendor,
17 payments can no longer be withheld, provided, however, that
18 the 120 day limit may be extended if said extension is
19 mutually agreed to by the Illinois Department and the vendor.
20 The Illinois Department shall state by rule with as much
21 specificity as practicable the conditions under which
22 payments will not be withheld during the pendency of any
23 proceeding under this Section. Payments may be denied for
24 bills submitted with service dates occurring during the
25 pendency of a proceeding where the final administrative
26 decision is to terminate eligibility to participate in the
27 medical assistance program. The Illinois Department shall
28 state by rule with as much specificity as practicable the
29 conditions under which payments will not be denied for such
30 bills.
31 (F-5) The Illinois Department may temporarily withhold
32 payments to a vendor if any of the following individuals have
33 been indicted or otherwise charged under a law of the United
34 States or this or any other state with a felony offense that
SB1854 Enrolled -534- LRB9215370EGfg
1 is based on alleged fraud or willful misrepresentation on the
2 part of the individual related to (i) the medical assistance
3 program under Article V of this Code, (ii) a medical
4 assistance program provided in another state which is of the
5 kind provided under Article V of this Code, (iii) the
6 Medicare program under Title XVIII of the Social Security
7 Act, or (iv) the provision of health care services:
8 (1) If the vendor is a corporation: an officer of
9 the corporation or an individual who owns, either
10 directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the shares of stock
11 or other evidence of ownership of the corporation.
12 (2) If the vendor is a sole proprietorship: the
13 owner of the sole proprietorship.
14 (3) If the vendor is a partnership: a partner in
15 the partnership.
16 (4) If the vendor is any other business entity
17 authorized by law to transact business in this State: an
18 officer of the entity or an individual who owns, either
19 directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the evidences of
20 ownership of the entity.
21 If the Illinois Department withholds payments to a vendor
22 under this subsection, the Department shall not release those
23 payments to the vendor while any criminal proceeding related
24 to the indictment or charge is pending unless the Department
25 determines that there is good cause to release the payments
26 before completion of the proceeding. If the indictment or
27 charge results in the individual's conviction, the Illinois
28 Department shall retain all withheld payments, which shall be
29 considered forfeited to the Department. If the indictment or
30 charge does not result in the individual's conviction, the
31 Illinois Department shall release to the vendor all withheld
32 payments.
33 (G) The provisions of the Administrative Review Law, as
34 now or hereafter amended, and the rules adopted pursuant
SB1854 Enrolled -535- LRB9215370EGfg
1 thereto, shall apply to and govern all proceedings for the
2 judicial review of final administrative decisions of the
3 Illinois Department under this Section. The term
4 "administrative decision" is defined as in Section 3-101 of
5 the Code of Civil Procedure.
6 (H) Nothing contained in this Code shall in any way
7 limit or otherwise impair the authority or power of any State
8 agency responsible for licensing of vendors.
9 (I) Based on a finding of noncompliance on the part of a
10 nursing home with any requirement for certification under
11 Title XVIII or XIX of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. Sec.
12 1395 et seq. or 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1396 et seq.), the Illinois
13 Department may impose one or more of the following remedies
14 after notice to the facility:
15 (1) Termination of the provider agreement.
16 (2) Temporary management.
17 (3) Denial of payment for new admissions.
18 (4) Civil money penalties.

20 or transfer of residents, or both.
21 (6) State monitoring.
22 (7) Denial of all payments when the Health Care
23 Finance Administration has imposed this sanction.
24 The Illinois Department shall by rule establish criteria
25 governing continued payments to a nursing facility subsequent
26 to termination of the facility's provider agreement if, in
27 the sole discretion of the Illinois Department, circumstances
28 affecting the health, safety, and welfare of the facility's
29 residents require those continued payments. The Illinois
30 Department may condition those continued payments on the
31 appointment of temporary management, sale of the facility to
32 new owners or operators, or other arrangements that the
33 Illinois Department determines best serve the needs of the
34 facility's residents.

1 Except in the case of a facility that has a right to a
2 hearing on the finding of noncompliance before an agency of
3 the federal government, a facility may request a hearing
4 before a State agency on any finding of noncompliance within
5 60 days after the notice of the intent to impose a remedy.
6 Except in the case of civil money penalties, a request for a
7 hearing shall not delay imposition of the penalty. The
8 choice of remedies is not appealable at a hearing. The level
9 of noncompliance may be challenged only in the case of a
10 civil money penalty. The Illinois Department shall provide by
11 rule for the State agency that will conduct the evidentiary
12 hearings.
13 The Illinois Department may collect interest on unpaid
14 civil money penalties.
15 The Illinois Department may adopt all rules necessary to

2 individual who will become 65 years old during the calendar
3 year in which a claim is filed, and any surviving spouse of
4 such a claimant, who at the time of death received or was
5 entitled to receive a grant pursuant to this Section, which
6 surviving spouse will become 65 years of age within the 24
7 months immediately following the death of such claimant and
8 which surviving spouse but for his or her age is otherwise
9 qualified to receive a grant pursuant to this Section, and
10 any disabled person whose annual household income is less
11 than $14,000 for grant years before the 1998 grant year, less
12 than $16,000 for the 1998 and 1999 grant years, and less than
13 (i) $21,218 for a household containing one person, (ii)
14 $28,480 for a household containing 2 persons, or (iii)
15 $35,740 for a household containing 3 or more persons for the
16 2000 grant year and thereafter and whose household is liable
17 for payment of property taxes accrued or has paid rent
18 constituting property taxes accrued and is domiciled in this
19 State at the time he or she files his or her claim is
20 entitled to claim a grant under this Act. With respect to
21 claims filed by individuals who will become 65 years old
22 during the calendar year in which a claim is filed, the
23 amount of any grant to which that household is entitled shall
24 be an amount equal to 1/12 of the amount to which the
25 claimant would otherwise be entitled as provided in this
26 Section, multiplied by the number of months in which the
27 claimant was 65 in the calendar year in which the claim is
28 filed.
29 (b) Limitation. Except as otherwise provided in
30 subsections (a) and (f) of this Section, the maximum amount
31 of grant which a claimant is entitled to claim is the amount
32 by which the property taxes accrued which were paid or
33 payable during the last preceding tax year or rent
34 constituting property taxes accrued upon the claimant's
SB1854 Enrolled -542- LRB9215370EGfg
1 residence for the last preceding taxable year exceeds 3 1/2%
2 of the claimant's household income for that year but in no
3 event is the grant to exceed (i) $700 less 4.5% of household
4 income for that year for those with a household income of
5 $14,000 or less or (ii) $70 if household income for that year
6 is more than $14,000.
7 (c) Public aid recipients. If household income in one
8 or more months during a year includes cash assistance in
9 excess of $55 per month from the Department of Public Aid or
10 the Department of Human Services (acting as successor to the
11 Department of Public Aid under the Department of Human
12 Services Act) which was determined under regulations of that
13 Department on a measure of need that included an allowance
14 for actual rent or property taxes paid by the recipient of
15 that assistance, the amount of grant to which that household
16 is entitled, except as otherwise provided in subsection (a),
17 shall be the product of (1) the maximum amount computed as
18 specified in subsection (b) of this Section and (2) the ratio
19 of the number of months in which household income did not
20 include such cash assistance over $55 to the number twelve.
21 If household income did not include such cash assistance over
22 $55 for any months during the year, the amount of the grant
23 to which the household is entitled shall be the maximum
24 amount computed as specified in subsection (b) of this
25 Section. For purposes of this paragraph (c), "cash
26 assistance" does not include any amount received under the
27 federal Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program.
28 (d) Joint ownership. If title to the residence is held
29 jointly by the claimant with a person who is not a member of
30 his or her household, the amount of property taxes accrued
31 used in computing the amount of grant to which he or she is
32 entitled shall be the same percentage of property taxes
33 accrued as is the percentage of ownership held by the
34 claimant in the residence.
SB1854 Enrolled -543- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (e) More than one residence. If a claimant has occupied
2 more than one residence in the taxable year, he or she may
3 claim only one residence for any part of a month. In the
4 case of property taxes accrued, he or she shall prorate pro
5 rate 1/12 of the total property taxes accrued on his or her
6 residence to each month that he or she owned and occupied
7 that residence; and, in the case of rent constituting
8 property taxes accrued, shall prorate pro rate each month's
9 rent payments to the residence actually occupied during that
10 month.
11 (f) There is hereby established a program of
12 pharmaceutical assistance to the aged and disabled which
13 shall be administered by the Department in accordance with
14 this Act, to consist of payments to authorized pharmacies, on
15 behalf of beneficiaries of the program, for the reasonable
16 costs of covered prescription drugs. Each beneficiary who
17 pays $5 for an identification card shall pay no additional
18 prescription costs. Each beneficiary who pays $25 for an
19 identification card shall pay $3 per prescription. In
20 addition, after a beneficiary receives $2,000 in benefits
21 during a State fiscal year, that beneficiary shall also be
22 charged 20% of the cost of each prescription for which
23 payments are made by the program during the remainder of the
24 fiscal year. To become a beneficiary under this program a
25 person must be: (1) be (i) 65 years of age or older, or (ii)
26 the surviving spouse of such a claimant, who at the time of
27 death received or was entitled to receive benefits pursuant
28 to this subsection, which surviving spouse will become 65
29 years of age within the 24 months immediately following the
30 death of such claimant and which surviving spouse but for his
31 or her age is otherwise qualified to receive benefits
32 pursuant to this subsection, or (iii) disabled, and (2) be is
33 domiciled in this State at the time he or she files his or
34 her claim, and (3) have has a maximum household income of
SB1854 Enrolled -544- LRB9215370EGfg
1 less than $14,000 for grant years before the 1998 grant year,
2 less than $16,000 for the 1998 and 1999 grant years, and less
3 than (i) $21,218 for a household containing one person, (ii)
4 $28,480 for a household containing 2 persons, or (iii)
5 $35,740 for a household containing 3 more persons for the
6 2000 grant year and thereafter. In addition, each eligible
7 person must (1) obtain an identification card from the
8 Department, (2) at the time the card is obtained, sign a
9 statement assigning to the State of Illinois benefits which
10 may be otherwise claimed under any private insurance plans,
11 and (3) present the identification card to the dispensing
12 pharmacist.
13 Whenever a generic equivalent for a covered prescription
14 drug is available, the Department shall reimburse only for
15 the reasonable costs of the generic equivalent, less the
16 co-pay established in this Section, unless (i) the covered
17 prescription drug contains one or more ingredients defined as
18 a narrow therapeutic index drug at 21 CFR 320.33, (ii) the
19 prescriber indicates on the face of the prescription "brand
20 medically necessary", and (iii) the prescriber specifies that
21 a substitution is not permitted. When issuing an oral
22 prescription for covered prescription medication described in
23 item (i) of this paragraph, the prescriber shall stipulate
24 "brand medically necessary" and that a substitution is not
25 permitted. If the covered prescription drug and its
26 authorizing prescription do not meet the criteria listed
27 above, the beneficiary may purchase the non-generic
28 equivalent of the covered prescription drug by paying the
29 difference between the generic cost and the non-generic cost
30 plus the beneficiary co-pay.
31 Any person otherwise eligible for pharmaceutical
32 assistance under this Act whose covered drugs are covered by
33 any public program for assistance in purchasing any covered
34 prescription drugs shall be ineligible for assistance under
SB1854 Enrolled -545- LRB9215370EGfg
1 this Act to the extent such costs are covered by such other
2 plan.
3 The fee to be charged by the Department for the
4 identification card shall be equal to $5 per coverage year
5 for persons below the official poverty line as defined by the
6 United States Department of Health and Human Services and $25
7 per coverage year for all other persons.
8 In the event that 2 or more persons are eligible for any
9 benefit under this Act, and are members of the same
10 household, (1) each such person shall be entitled to
11 participate in the pharmaceutical assistance program,
12 provided that he or she meets all other requirements imposed
13 by this subsection and (2) each participating household
14 member contributes the fee required for that person by the
15 preceding paragraph for the purpose of obtaining an
16 identification card.

20 Sec. 6. Administration.
21 (a) In general. Upon receipt of a timely filed claim,
22 the Department shall determine whether the claimant is a
23 person entitled to a grant under this Act and the amount of
24 grant to which he is entitled under this Act. The Department
25 may require the claimant to furnish reasonable proof of the
26 statements of domicile, household income, rent paid, property
27 taxes accrued and other matters on which entitlement is
28 based, and may withhold payment of a grant until such
29 additional proof is furnished.
30 (b) Rental determination. If the Department finds that
31 the gross rent used in the computation by a claimant of rent
32 constituting property taxes accrued exceeds the fair rental
33 value for the right to occupy that residence, the Department
SB1854 Enrolled -546- LRB9215370EGfg
1 may determine the fair rental value for that residence and
2 recompute rent constituting property taxes accrued
3 accordingly.
4 (c) Fraudulent claims. The Department shall deny claims
5 which have been fraudulently prepared or when it finds that
6 the claimant has acquired title to his residence or has paid
7 rent for his residence primarily for the purpose of receiving
8 a grant under this Act.
9 (d) Pharmaceutical Assistance. The Department shall
10 allow all pharmacies licensed under the Pharmacy Practice Act
11 of 1987 to participate as authorized pharmacies unless they
12 have been removed from that status for cause pursuant to the
13 terms of this Section. The Director of the Department may
14 enter into a written contract with any State agency,
15 instrumentality or political subdivision, or a fiscal
16 intermediary for the purpose of making payments to authorized
17 pharmacies for covered prescription drugs and coordinating
18 the program of pharmaceutical assistance established by this
19 Act with other programs that provide payment for covered
20 prescription drugs. Such agreement shall establish
21 procedures for properly contracting for pharmacy services,
22 validating reimbursement claims, validating compliance of
23 dispensing pharmacists with the contracts for participation
24 required under this Section, validating the reasonable costs
25 of covered prescription drugs, and otherwise providing for
26 the effective administration of this Act.
27 The Department shall promulgate rules and regulations to
28 implement and administer the program of pharmaceutical
29 assistance required by this Act, which shall include the
30 following:
31 (1) Execution of contracts with pharmacies to

3 (325 ILCS 20/11) (from Ch. 23, par. 4161)
4 Sec. 11. Individualized Family Service Plans.
5 (a) Each eligible infant or toddler and that infant's or
6 toddler's family shall receive:
7 (1) timely, comprehensive, multidisciplinary
8 assessment of the unique needs of each eligible infant
9 and toddler, and assessment of the concerns and
10 priorities of the families to appropriately assist them
11 in meeting their needs and identify services to meet
12 those needs; and
13 (2) a written Individualized Family Service Plan
14 developed by a multidisciplinary team which includes the
15 parent or guardian. The individualized family service
16 plan shall be based on the multidisciplinary team's
17 assessment of the resources, priorities, and concerns of
18 the family and its identification of the supports and
19 services necessary to enhance the family's capacity to
20 meet the developmental needs of the infant or toddler,
21 and shall include the identification of services
22 appropriate to meet those needs, including the frequency,
23 intensity, and method of delivering services. During and
24 as part of the initial development of the individualized
25 family services plan, and any periodic reviews of the
26 plan, the multidisciplinary team shall consult the lead
27 agency's therapy guidelines and its designated experts,
28 if any, to help determine appropriate services and the
29 frequency and intensity of those services. All services
30 in the individualized family services plan must be
31 justified by the multidisciplinary assessment of the
32 unique strengths and needs of the infant or toddler and
33 must be appropriate to meet those needs. At the periodic
SB1854 Enrolled -550- LRB9215370EGfg
1 reviews, the team shall determine whether modification or
2 revision of the outcomes or services is necessary.
3 (b) The Individualized Family Service Plan shall be
4 evaluated once a year and the family shall be provided a
5 review of the Plan at 6 month intervals or more often where
6 appropriate based on infant or toddler and family needs. The
7 lead agency shall create a quality review process regarding
8 Individualized Family Service Plan development and changes
9 thereto, to monitor and help assure that resources are being
10 used to provide appropriate early intervention services.
11 (c) The evaluation and initial assessment and initial
12 Plan meeting must be held within 45 days after the initial
13 contact with the early intervention services system. With
14 parental consent, early intervention services may commence
15 before the completion of the comprehensive assessment and
16 development of the Plan.
17 (d) Parents must be informed that, at their discretion,
18 early intervention services shall be provided to each
19 eligible infant and toddler in the natural environment, which
20 may include the home or other community settings. Parents
21 shall make the final decision to accept or decline early
22 intervention services. A decision to decline such services
23 shall not be a basis for administrative determination of
24 parental fitness, or other findings or sanctions against the
25 parents. Parameters of the Plan shall be set forth in rules.
26 (e) The regional intake offices shall explain to each
27 family, orally and in writing, all of the following:
28 (1) That the early intervention program will pay
29 for all early intervention services set forth in the
30 individualized family service plan that are not covered
31 or paid under the family's public or private insurance
32 plan or policy and not eligible for payment through any
33 other third party payor.
34 (2) That services will not be delayed due to any
SB1854 Enrolled -551- LRB9215370EGfg
1 rules or restrictions under the family's insurance plan
2 or policy.
3 (3) That the family may request, with appropriate
4 documentation supporting the request, a determination of
5 an exemption from private insurance use under Section
6 13.25.
7 (4) That responsibility for co-payments or
8 co-insurance under a family's private insurance plan or
9 policy will be transferred to the lead agency's central
10 billing office.
11 (5) That families will be responsible for payments
12 of family fees, which will be based on a sliding scale
13 according to income, and that these fees are payable to
14 the central billing office, and that if the family
15 encounters a catastrophic circumstance, as defined under
16 subsection (f) of Section 13 of this Act, making it
17 unable to pay the fees, the lead agency may, upon proof
18 of inability to pay, waive the fees.
19 (f) The individualized family service plan must state
20 whether the family has private insurance coverage and, if the
21 family has such coverage, must have attached to it a copy of
22 the family's insurance identification card or otherwise
23 include all of the following information:
24 (1) The name, address, and telephone number of the
25 insurance carrier.
26 (2) The contract number and policy number of the
27 insurance plan.

5 Sec. 13. Funding and Fiscal Responsibility.
6 (a) The lead agency and every other participating State
7 agency may receive and expend funds appropriated by the
8 General Assembly to implement the early intervention services
9 system as required by this Act.
10 (b) The lead agency and each participating State agency
11 shall identify and report on an annual basis to the Council
12 the State agency funds utilized for the provision of early
13 intervention services to eligible infants and toddlers.
14 (c) Funds provided under Section 633 of the Individuals
15 with Disabilities Education Act (20 United States Code 1433)
16 and State funds designated or appropriated for early
17 intervention services or programs may not be used to satisfy
18 a financial commitment for services which would have been
19 paid for from another public or private source but for the
20 enactment of this Act, except whenever considered necessary
21 to prevent delay in receiving appropriate early intervention
22 services by the eligible infant or toddler or family in a
23 timely manner. "Public or private source" includes public
24 and private insurance coverage.
25 Funds provided under Section 633 of the Individuals with
26 Disabilities Education Act and State funds designated or
27 appropriated for early intervention services or programs may
28 be used by the lead agency to pay the provider of services
29 (A) pending reimbursement from the appropriate State agency
30 or (B) if (i) the claim for payment is denied in whole or in
31 part by a public or private source, or would be denied under
32 the written terms of the public program or plan or private
33 plan, or (ii) use of private insurance for the service has
SB1854 Enrolled -553- LRB9215370EGfg
1 been exempted under Section 13.25. Payment under item (B)(i)
2 may be made based on a pre-determination telephone inquiry
3 supported by written documentation of the denial supplied
4 thereafter by the insurance carrier.
5 (d) Nothing in this Act shall be construed to permit the
6 State to reduce medical or other assistance available or to
7 alter eligibility under Title V and Title XIX of the Social
8 Security Act relating to the Maternal Child Health Program
9 and Medicaid for eligible infants and toddlers in this State.
10 (e) The lead agency shall create a central billing
11 office to receive and dispense all relevant State and federal
12 resources, as well as local government or independent
13 resources available, for early intervention services. This
14 office shall assure that maximum federal resources are
15 utilized and that providers receive funds with minimal
16 duplications or interagency reporting and with consolidated
17 audit procedures.
18 (f) The lead agency shall, by rule, create a system of
19 payments by families, including a schedule of fees. No fees,
20 however, may be charged for: implementing child find,
21 evaluation and assessment, service coordination,
22 administrative and coordination activities related to the
23 development, review, and evaluation of Individualized Family
24 Service Plans, or the implementation of procedural safeguards
25 and other administrative components of the statewide early
26 intervention system.
27 The system of payments, called family fees, shall be
28 structured on a sliding scale based on family income. The
29 family's coverage or lack of coverage under a public or
30 private insurance plan or policy shall not be a factor in
31 determining the amount of the family fees.
32 Each family's fee obligation shall be established
33 annually, and shall be paid by families to the central
34 billing office in installments. At the written request of the
SB1854 Enrolled -554- LRB9215370EGfg
1 family, the fee obligation shall be adjusted prospectively at
2 any point during the year upon proof of a change in family
3 income or family size. The inability of the parents of an
4 eligible child to pay family fees due to catastrophic
5 circumstances or extraordinary expenses shall not result in
6 the denial of services to the child or the child's family. A
7 family must document its extraordinary expenses or other
8 catastrophic circumstances by showing one of the following:
9 (i) out-of-pocket medical expenses in excess of 15% of gross
10 income; (ii) a fire, flood, or other disaster causing a
11 direct out-of-pocket loss in excess of 15% of gross income;
12 or (iii) other catastrophic circumstances causing
13 out-of-pocket losses in excess of 15% of gross income. The
14 family must present proof of loss to its service coordinator,
15 who shall document it, and the lead agency shall determine
16 whether the fees shall be reduced, forgiven, or suspended
17 within 10 business days after the family's request.
18 (g) To ensure that early intervention funds are used as
19 the payor of last resort for early intervention services, the
20 lead agency shall determine at the point of early
21 intervention intake, and again at any periodic review of
22 eligibility thereafter or upon a change in family
23 circumstances, whether the family is eligible for or enrolled
24 in any program for which payment is made directly or through
25 public or private insurance for any or all of the early
26 intervention services made available under this Act. The lead
27 agency shall establish procedures to ensure that payments are
28 made either directly from these public and private sources
29 instead of from State or federal early intervention funds, or
30 as reimbursement for payments previously made from State or
31 federal early intervention funds.

1 Section 68. The Mental Health and Developmental

3 3-601 as follows:
4 (405 ILCS 5/2-108) (from Ch. 91 1/2, par. 2-108)
5 Sec. 2-108. Use of restraint. Restraint may be used
6 only as a therapeutic measure to prevent a recipient from
7 causing physical harm to himself or physical abuse to others.
8 Restraint may only be applied by a person who has been
9 trained in the application of the particular type of
10 restraint to be utilized. In no event shall restraint be
11 utilized to punish or discipline a recipient, nor is
12 restraint to be used as a convenience for the staff.
13 (a) Except as provided in this Section, restraint shall
14 be employed only upon the written order of a physician,
15 clinical psychologist, clinical social worker, or registered
16 nurse with supervisory responsibilities. No restraint shall
17 be ordered unless the physician, clinical psychologist,
18 clinical social worker, or registered nurse with supervisory
19 responsibilities, after personally observing and examining
20 the recipient, is clinically satisfied that the use of
21 restraint is justified to prevent the recipient from causing
22 physical harm to himself or others. In no event may restraint
23 continue for longer than 2 hours unless within that time
24 period a nurse with supervisory responsibilities or a
25 physician confirms, in writing, following a personal
26 examination of the recipient, that the restraint does not
27 pose an undue risk to the recipient's health in light of the
28 recipient's physical or medical condition. The order shall
29 state the events leading up to the need for restraint and the
30 purposes for which restraint is employed. The order shall
31 also state the length of time restraint is to be employed and
32 the clinical justification for that length of time. No order
33 for restraint shall be valid for more than 16 hours. If
SB1854 Enrolled -556- LRB9215370EGfg
1 further restraint is required, a new order must be issued
2 pursuant to the requirements provided in this Section.
3 (b) In the event there is an emergency requiring the
4 immediate use of restraint, it may be ordered temporarily by
5 a qualified person only where a physician, clinical
6 psychologist, clinical social worker, or registered nurse
7 with supervisory responsibilities is not immediately
8 available. In that event, an order by a nurse, clinical
9 psychologist, clinical social worker, or physician shall be
10 obtained pursuant to the requirements of this Section as
11 quickly as possible, and the recipient shall be examined by a
12 physician or supervisory nurse within 2 hours after the
13 initial employment of the emergency restraint. Whoever orders
14 restraint in emergency situations shall document its
15 necessity and place that documentation in the recipient's
16 record.
17 (c) The person who orders restraint shall inform the
18 facility director or his designee in writing of the use of
19 restraint within 24 hours.
20 (d) The facility director shall review all restraint
21 orders daily and shall inquire into the reasons for the
22 orders for restraint by any person who routinely orders them.
23 (e) Restraint may be employed during all or part of one
24 24 hour period, the period commencing with the initial
25 application of the restraint. However, once restraint has
26 been employed during one 24 hour period, it shall not be used
27 again on the same recipient during the next 48 hours without
28 the prior written authorization of the facility director.
29 (f) Restraint shall be employed in a humane and
30 therapeutic manner and the person being restrained shall be
31 observed by a qualified person as often as is clinically
32 appropriate but in no event less than once every 15 minutes.
33 The qualified person shall maintain a record of the
34 observations. Specifically, unless there is an immediate
SB1854 Enrolled -557- LRB9215370EGfg
1 danger that the recipient will physically harm himself or
2 others, restraint shall be loosely applied to permit freedom
3 of movement. Further, the recipient shall be permitted to
4 have regular meals and toilet privileges free from the
5 restraint, except when freedom of action may result in
6 physical harm to the recipient or others.
7 (g) Every facility that employs restraint shall provide
8 training in the safe and humane application of each type of
9 restraint employed. The facility shall not authorize the use
10 of any type of restraint by an employee who has not received
11 training in the safe and humane application of that type of
12 restraint. Each facility in which restraint is used shall
13 maintain records detailing which employees have been trained
14 and are authorized to apply restraint, the date of the
15 training and the type of restraint that the employee was
16 trained to use.
17 (h) Whenever restraint is imposed upon any recipient
18 whose primary mode of communication is sign language, the
19 recipient shall be permitted to have his hands free from
20 restraint for brief periods each hour hours, except when
21 freedom may result in physical harm to the recipient or
22 others.
23 (i) A recipient who is restrained may only be secluded
24 at the same time pursuant to an explicit written
25 authorization as provided in Section 2-109 of this Code.
26 Whenever a recipient is restrained, a member of the facility
27 staff shall remain with the recipient at all times unless the
28 recipient has been secluded. A recipient who is restrained
29 and secluded shall be observed by a qualified person as often
30 as is clinically appropriate but in no event less than every
31 15 minutes.
32 (j) Whenever restraint is used, the recipient shall be
33 advised of his right, pursuant to Sections 2-200 and 2-201 of
34 this Code, to have any person of his choosing, including the
SB1854 Enrolled -558- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Guardianship and Advocacy Commission or the agency designated
2 pursuant to the Protection and Advocacy for Developmentally
3 Disabled Persons Act notified of the restraint. A recipient
4 who is under guardianship may request that any person of his
5 choosing be notified of the restraint whether or not the
6 guardian approves of the notice. Whenever the Guardianship
7 and Advocacy Commission is notified that a recipient has been
8 restrained, it shall contact that recipient to determine the
9 circumstances of the restraint and whether further action is
10 warranted.

32 provided on the certificate of title, or as the Secretary of

5 application for a new certificate and the required fee, mail
6 or deliver them to the Secretary of State. The delivery of
7 the certificate does not affect the rights of the lienholder
8 under his security agreement.
9 (d) If a security interest is reserved or created at the
10 time of the transfer, the certificate of title shall be
11 retained by or delivered to the person who becomes the
12 lienholder, and the parties shall comply with the provisions
13 of Section 3-203.

3 Sec. 3-112.1. Odometer.
4 (a) All titles issued by the Secretary of State
5 beginning January, 1990, shall provide for an odometer
6 certification substantially as follows:

11 ( ) 1. The mileage stated is in excess of its
12 mechanical limits.
13 ( ) 2. The odometer reading is not the actual mileage.
14 Warning - Odometer Discrepancy."

16 the odometer certification as described in paragraph (a)
17 above, each transferor of a motor vehicle must supply on the
18 title form the following information:
19 (1) The odometer reading at the time of transfer
20 and an indication if the mileage is in excess of its
21 mechanical limits or if it is not the actual mileage;

27 indicating that he or she is aware of the odometer
28 certification made by the transferor.
29 (d) The transferor will not be required to disclose the
30 current odometer reading and the transferee will not have to
31 acknowledge such disclosure under the following
32 circumstances:

7 (e) When the transferor signs the title transfer such
8 transferor acknowledges that he or she is aware that Federal
9 regulations and State law require him or her to state the
10 odometer mileage upon transfer of ownership. An inaccurate
11 or untruthful statement with intent to defraud subjects the
12 transferor to liability for damages to the transferee
13 pursuant to the federal Motor Vehicle Information and Cost
14 Act of 1972, P.L. 92-513 as amended by P.L. 94-364. No
15 transferor shall be liable for damages as provided under this
16 Section who transfers title to a motor vehicle which has an
17 odometer reading that has been altered or tampered with by a
18 previous owner, unless that transferor knew or had reason to
19 know of such alteration or tampering and sold such vehicle
20 with an intent to defraud. A cause of action is hereby
21 created by which any person who, with intent to defraud,
22 violates any requirement imposed under this Section shall be
23 liable in an amount equal to the sum of:
24 (1) three times the amount of actual damages
25 sustained or $1,500, whichever is the greater; and
26 (2) in the case of any successful action to enforce
27 the foregoing liability, the costs of the action together
28 with reasonable attorney fees as determined by the court.
29 Any recovery based on a cause of action under this
30 Section shall be offset by any recovery made pursuant to the
31 federal Motor Vehicle Information and Cost Savings Act of
32 1972.

28 permit granting the privilege of driving a motor vehicle only

30 provided by this Section for a period of one year. After
31 this one year period, and upon reapplication for a license as

4 each, until the applicant attains 21 years of age.

6 suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
7 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
8 ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, arising out of

18 under Section 11-501.1, or 2 or more statutory summary
19 suspensions, or combination of 2 offenses, or of an offense
20 and a statutory summary suspension, arising out of separate
21 occurrences, that person, if issued a restricted driving
22 permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped
23 with an ignition interlock device as defined in Section

6 in this subparagraph shall apply to similar out-of-state
7 convictions.

16 to the Secretary of State DUI Administration Fund an
17 amount not to exceed $20 per month. The Secretary shall

23 employer. In each case the Secretary may issue a
24 restricted driving permit for a period deemed
25 appropriate, except that all permits shall expire within
26 one year from the date of issuance. The Secretary may

8 a conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
9 ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be
10 deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension,
11 or cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The
12 Secretary of State may, as a condition to the issuance of
13 a restricted driving permit, require the applicant to
14 participate in a designated driver remedial or
15 rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is
16 authorized to cancel a restricted driving permit if the
17 permit holder does not successfully complete the program.

11 Sec. 11-1201. Obedience to signal indicating approach of
12 train.
13 (a) Whenever any person driving a vehicle approaches a
14 railroad grade crossing such person must exercise due care
15 and caution as the existence of a railroad track across a
16 highway is a warning of danger, and under any of the
17 circumstances stated in this Section, the driver shall stop
18 within 50 feet but not less than 15 feet from the nearest
19 rail of the railroad and shall not proceed until he can do so
20 safely. The foregoing requirements shall apply when:
21 1. A clearly visible electric or mechanical signal
22 device gives warning of the immediate approach of a
23 railroad train;
24 2. A crossing gate is lowered or a human flagman
25 gives or continues to give a signal of the approach or
26 passage of a railroad train;
27 3. A railroad train approaching a highway crossing
28 emits a warning signal and such railroad train, by reason
29 of its speed or nearness to such crossing, is an
30 immediate hazard;
31 4. An approaching railroad train is plainly visible
32 and is in hazardous proximity to such crossing;.
33 5. A railroad train is approaching so closely that
SB1854 Enrolled -677- LRB9215370EGfg
1 an immediate hazard is created.
2 (b) No person shall drive any vehicle through, around or
3 under any crossing gate or barrier at a railroad crossing
4 while such gate or barrier is closed or is being opened or
5 closed.
6 (c) The Department, and local authorities with the
7 approval of the Department, are hereby authorized to
8 designate particularly dangerous highway grade crossings of
9 railroads and to erect stop signs thereat. When such stop
10 signs are erected the driver of any vehicle shall stop within
11 50 feet but not less than 15 feet from the nearest rail of
12 such railroad and shall proceed only upon exercising due
13 care.
14 (d) At any railroad grade crossing provided with
15 railroad crossbuck signs, without automatic, electric, or
16 mechanical signal devices, crossing gates, or a human flagman
17 giving a signal of the approach or passage of a train, the
18 driver of a vehicle shall in obedience to the railroad
19 crossbuck sign, yield the right-of-way and slow down to a
20 speed reasonable for the existing conditions and shall stop,
21 if required for safety, at a clearly marked stopped line, or
22 if no stop line, within 50 feet but not less than 15 feet
23 from the nearest rail of the railroad and shall not proceed
24 until he or she can do so safely. If a driver is involved in
25 a collision at a railroad crossing or interferes with the
26 movement of a train after driving past the railroad crossbuck
27 sign, the collision or interference is prima facie evidence
28 of the driver's failure to yield right-of-way.
29 (d-5) No person may drive any vehicle through a railroad
30 crossing if there is insufficient space to drive completely
31 through the crossing without stopping.
32 (e) It is unlawful to violate any part of this Section.
33 A first conviction of a person for a violation of any part of
34 this Section shall result in a mandatory fine of $250; all
SB1854 Enrolled -678- LRB9215370EGfg
1 subsequent convictions of that person for any violation of
2 any part of this Section shall each result in a mandatory
3 fine of $500.
4 (f) Corporate authorities of municipal corporations
5 regulating operators of vehicles that fail to obey signals
6 indicating the presence, approach, passage, or departure of a
7 train shall impose fines as established in subsection (e) of
8 this Section.

12 Sec. 11-1201.1. Automated Railroad Crossing Enforcement
13 System.
14 (a) For the purposes of this Section, an automated
15 railroad grade crossing enforcement system is a system
16 operated by a law enforcement agency that records a driver's
17 response to automatic, electrical or mechanical signal
18 devices and crossing gates. The system shall be designed to
19 obtain a clear photograph or other recorded image of the
20 vehicle, vehicle operator and the vehicle registration plate
21 of a vehicle in violation of Section 11-1201. The photograph
22 or other recorded image shall also display the time, date and
23 location of the violation.
24 (b) Commencing on January 1, 1996, the Illinois Commerce
25 Commission and the Commuter Rail Board of the Regional
26 Transportation Authority shall, in cooperation with local law
27 enforcement agencies, establish a 5 year pilot program within
28 a county with a population of between 750,000 and 1,000,000
29 using an automated railroad grade crossing enforcement
30 system. The Commission shall determine the 3 railroad grade
31 crossings within that county that pose the greatest threat to
32 human life based upon the number of accidents and fatalities
33 at the crossings during the past 5 years and with approval of
SB1854 Enrolled -679- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the local law enforcement agency equip the crossings with an
2 automated railroad grade crossing enforcement system.
3 (b-1) Commencing on July 20, 2001 (the effective date of
4 Public Act 92-98) this amendatory Act of the 92nd General
5 Assembly, the Illinois Commerce Commission and the Commuter
6 Rail Board may, in cooperation with the local law enforcement
7 agency, establish in a county with a population of between
8 750,000 and 1,000,000 a 2 year pilot program using an
9 automated railroad grade crossing enforcement system. This
10 pilot program may be established at a railroad grade crossing
11 designated by local authorities. No State moneys may be
12 expended on the automated railroad grade crossing enforcement
13 system established under this pilot program.
14 (c) For each violation of Section 11-1201 recorded by an
15 automatic railroad grade crossing system, the local law
16 enforcement agency having jurisdiction shall issue a written
17 Uniform Traffic Citation of the violation to the registered
18 owner of the vehicle as the alleged violator. The Uniform
19 Traffic Citation shall be delivered to the registered owner
20 of the vehicle, by mail, within 30 days of the violation.
21 The Uniform Traffic Citation shall include the name and
22 address of vehicle owner, the vehicle registration number,
23 the offense charged, the time, date, and location of the
24 violation, the first available court date and that the basis
25 of the citation is the photograph or other recorded image
26 from the automated railroad grade crossing enforcement
27 system.
28 (d) The Uniform Traffic Citation issued to the
29 registered owner of the vehicle shall be accompanied by a
30 written notice, the contents of which is set forth in
31 subsection (d-1) of this Section, explaining how the
32 registered owner of the vehicle can elect to proceed by
33 either paying the fine or challenging the issuance of the
34 Uniform Traffic Citation.
SB1854 Enrolled -680- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (d-1) The written notice explaining the alleged
2 violator's rights and obligations must include the following
3 text:
4 "You have been served with the accompanying Uniform
5 Traffic Citation and cited with having violated Section
6 11-1201 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. You can elect to
7 proceed by:
8 1. Paying the fine; or
9 2. Challenging the issuance of the Uniform Traffic
10 Citation in court; or
11 3. If you were not the operator of the vehicle at the
12 time of the alleged offense, notifying in writing the
13 local law enforcement agency that issued the Uniform
14 Traffic Citation of the number of the Uniform Traffic
15 Citation received and the name and address of the person
16 operating the vehicle at the time of the alleged offense.
17 If you fail to so notify in writing the local law
18 enforcement agency of the name and address of the
19 operator of the vehicle at the time of the alleged
20 offense, you may be presumed to have been the operator of
21 the vehicle at the time of the alleged offense."
22 (d-2) If the registered owner of the vehicle was not the
23 operator of the vehicle at the time of the alleged offense,
24 and if the registered owner notifies the local law
25 enforcement agency having jurisdiction of the name and
26 address of the operator of the vehicle at the time of the
27 alleged offense, the local law enforcement agency having
28 jurisdiction shall then issue a written Uniform Traffic
29 Citation to the person alleged by the registered owner to
30 have been the operator of the vehicle at the time of the
31 alleged offense. If the registered owner fails to notify in
32 writing the local law enforcement agency having jurisdiction
33 of the name and address of the operator of the vehicle at the
34 time of the alleged offense, the registered owner may be
SB1854 Enrolled -681- LRB9215370EGfg
1 presumed to have been the operator of the vehicle at the time
2 of the alleged offense.
3 (e) Evidence.
4 (i) A certificate alleging that a violation of
5 Section 11-1201 occurred, sworn to or affirmed by a duly
6 authorized agency, based on inspection of recorded images
7 produced by an automated railroad crossing enforcement
8 system are evidence of the facts contained in the
9 certificate and are admissible in any proceeding alleging
10 a violation under this Section.
11 (ii) Photographs or recorded images made by an
12 automatic railroad grade crossing enforcement system are
13 confidential and shall be made available only to the
14 alleged violator and governmental and law enforcement
15 agencies for purposes of adjudicating a violation of
16 Section 11-1201 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. However,
17 any photograph or other recorded image evidencing a
18 violation of Section 11-1201 shall be admissible in any
19 proceeding resulting from the issuance of the Uniform
20 Traffic Citation when there is reasonable and sufficient
21 proof of the accuracy of the camera or electronic
22 instrument recording the image. There is a rebuttable
23 presumption that the photograph or recorded image is
24 accurate if the camera or electronic recording instrument
25 was in good working order at the beginning and the end of
26 the day of the alleged offense.
27 (f) Rail crossings equipped with an automatic railroad
28 grade crossing enforcement system shall be posted with a sign
29 visible to approaching traffic stating that the railroad
30 grade crossing is being monitored, that citations will be
31 issued, and the amount of the fine for violation.
32 (g) Except as provided in subsection (b-1), the cost of
33 the installation and maintenance of each automatic railroad
34 grade crossing enforcement system shall be paid from the
SB1854 Enrolled -682- LRB9215370EGfg

2 by Commuter Rail Board of the Regional Transportation
3 Authority. Except as provided in subsection (b-1), if the
4 rail line is owned by the Commuter Rail Board of the Regional
5 Transportation Authority, the costs of the installation and
6 maintenance shall be paid from the Regional Transportation
7 Authority's portion of the Public Transportation Fund.
8 (h) The Illinois Commerce Commission shall issue a
9 report to the General Assembly at the conclusion of the 5
10 year pilot program established under subsection (b) on the
11 effectiveness of the automatic railroad grade crossing
12 enforcement system.
13 (i) If any part or parts of this Section are held by a
14 court of competent jurisdiction to be unconstitutional, the
15 unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity of the
16 remaining parts of this Section. The General Assembly hereby
17 declares that it would have passed the remaining parts of
18 this Section if it had known that the other part or parts of
19 this Section would be declared unconstitutional.
20 (j) Penalty.
21 (i) A violation of this Section is a petty offense
22 for which a fine of $250 shall be imposed for a first
23 violation, and a fine of $500 shall be imposed for a
24 second or subsequent violation.
25 (ii) For a second or subsequent violation, the

12 under supervision for the period of the delay.
13 (8) When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a

19 community service is available in the jurisdiction. The
20 community service shall include, but need not be limited to,
21 the cleanup and repair of the damage that was caused by the
22 alleged violation or similar damage to property located in
23 the municipality or county in which the alleged violation
24 occurred. The condition may be in addition to any other
25 condition.
26 (8.5) When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a
27 delinquent for reasons that include a violation of Section
28 3.02 or Section 3.03 of the Humane Care for Animals Act or
29 paragraph (d) of subsection (1) of Section 21-1 of the
30 Criminal Code of 1961 is continued under this Section, the
31 court shall, as a condition of the continuance under
32 supervision, require the minor to undergo medical or

SB1854 Enrolled -701- LRB9215370EGfg
1 The condition may be in addition to any other condition.
2 (9) When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a
3 delinquent is continued under this Section, the court, before

5 alleged to have been committed either: (i) was related to or
6 in furtherance of the activities of an organized gang or was
7 motivated by the minor's membership in or allegiance to an
8 organized gang, or (ii) is a violation of paragraph (13) of
9 subsection (a) of Section 12-2 of the Criminal Code of 1961,
10 a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the Criminal Code
11 of 1961, or a violation of any statute that involved the
12 unlawful use of a firearm. If the court determines the
13 question in the affirmative the court shall, as a condition
14 of the continuance under supervision and as part of or in
15 addition to any other condition of the supervision, require
16 the minor to perform community service for not less than 30
17 hours, provided that community service is available in the
18 jurisdiction and is funded and approved by the county board
19 of the county where the offense was committed. The community
20 service shall include, but need not be limited to, the
21 cleanup and repair of any damage caused by an alleged
22 violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 and
23 similar damage to property located in the municipality or
24 county in which the alleged violation occurred. When
25 possible and reasonable, the community service shall be
26 performed in the minor's neighborhood. For the purposes of
27 this Section, "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it
28 in Section 10 of the Illinois Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus
29 Prevention Act.
30 (10) The court shall impose upon a minor placed on
31 supervision, as a condition of the supervision, a fee of $25
32 for each month of supervision ordered by the court, unless
33 after determining the inability of the minor placed on
34 supervision to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser
SB1854 Enrolled -702- LRB9215370EGfg
1 amount. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is
2 made a ward of the State under this Act while the minor is in
3 placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon a minor who is
4 actively supervised by the probation and court services
5 department. A court may order the parent, guardian, or legal
6 custodian of the minor to pay some or all of the fee on the
7 minor's behalf.

10 trial court may impose any sentence which could have been
11 imposed at the original trial subject to Section 5-5-4 of the
12 Unified Code of Corrections. If a sentence is vacated on

14 trier of fact at trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt
15 the existence of a fact (other than a prior conviction)
16 necessary to increase the punishment for the offense beyond
17 the statutory maximum otherwise applicable, either the

15 paying for such services, if the victim was under 18
16 years of age at the time the offense was committed and
17 requires counseling as a result of the offense.

23 members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and
24 impose a term of imprisonment.

26 the judge shall have the discretion to determine to whom, if
27 anyone, the results of the testing may be revealed. The court
28 shall notify the defendant of a positive test showing an
29 infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The
30 court shall provide information on the availability of HIV
31 testing and counseling at Department of Public Health
32 facilities to all parties to whom the results of the testing

24 defendant who wilfully fails to comply with this subsection
25 (j-5) upon his or her release from confinement in a penal
26 institution while serving a mandatory supervised release

28 good faith effort to obtain financial aid or pay for the
29 educational training shall not be deemed a wilful failure to
30 comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall recommit the
31 defendant whose mandatory supervised release term has been
32 revoked under this subsection (j-5) as provided in Section
33 3-3-9. This subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant

18 (1) a final order of deportation has been
19 issued against the defendant pursuant to proceedings
20 under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and

17 sentence that was available under Section 5-5-3 at the
18 time of initial sentencing. In addition, the defendant
19 shall not be eligible for additional good conduct credit
20 for meritorious service as provided under Section 3-6-6.

16 or other method of administrative review to be filed with the
17 administrative agency for an indefinite period of time after
18 the administrative decision has been rendered (such as
19 permitting such application to be filed at any time before
20 judgment by the administrative agency against the applicant
21 or within a specified time after the entry of such judgment),
22 then the authorization for the filing of such application for
23 rehearing or review shall not postpone the time when the
24 administrative decision as to which such application shall be
25 filed would otherwise become final, but the filing of the
26 application for rehearing or review with the administrative
27 agency in this type of case shall constitute the commencement
28 of a new proceeding before such agency, and the decision
29 rendered in order to dispose of such rehearing or other
30 review proceeding shall constitute a new and independent
31 administrative decision. If such new and independent
32 decision consists merely of the denial of the application for
33 rehearing or other method of administrative review, the
34 record upon judicial review of such decision shall be limited
SB1854 Enrolled -751- LRB9215370EGfg
1 to the application for rehearing or other review and the
2 order or decision denying such application and shall not
3 include the record of proceedings had before the rendering of
4 the administrative decision as to which the application for
5 rehearing or other administrative review shall have been
6 filed unless the suit for judicial review is commenced within
7 the time in which it would be authorized by this Act to have
8 been commenced if no application for rehearing or other
9 method of administrative review had been filed. On the other
10 hand, if the rehearing or other administrative review is
11 granted by the administrative agency, then the record on
12 judicial review of the resulting administrative decision
13 rendered pursuant to the rehearing or other administrative
14 review may consist not only of the record of proceedings had
15 before the administrative agency in such rehearing or other
16 administrative review proceeding, but also of the record of
17 proceedings had before such administrative agency prior to
18 its rendering of the administrative decision as to which the
19 rehearing or other administrative review shall have been
20 granted. The term "administrative decision" or "decision"
21 does not mean or include rules, regulations, standards, or
22 statements of policy of general application issued by an
23 administrative agency to implement, interpret, or make
24 specific the legislation enforced or administered by it
25 unless such a rule, regulation, standard or statement of
26 policy is involved in a proceeding before the agency and its
27 applicability or validity is in issue in such proceeding, nor
28 does it mean or include regulations concerning the internal
29 management of the agency not affecting private rights or
30 interests.

4 Sec. 6. Civil investigative demands.
5 (a) In general.
6 (1) Issuance and service. Whenever the Attorney
7 General has reason to believe that any person may be in

22 material, answers, or testimony.
23 The Attorney General shall delegate the authority to issue

14 period of time within which the material so
15 demanded may be assembled and made available
16 for inspection and copying; and

18 such material shall be made available.

9 which the demand is being issued and the

11 primary areas of inquiry, which will be taken
12 pursuant to the demand.
13 (E) Any civil investigative demand issued
14 under this Section which is an express demand for
15 any product of discovery shall not be returned or

18 discovery was obtained.
19 (F) The date prescribed for the commencement
20 of oral testimony pursuant to a civil investigative
21 demand issued under this Section shall be a date
22 which is not less than 7 days after the date on
23 which demand is received, unless the Attorney
24 General or an Assistant Attorney General designated
25 by the Attorney General or the delegate of the
26 Department of State Police determines that
27 exceptional circumstances are present which warrant
28 the commencement of such testimony within a lesser
29 period of time.
30 (G) The Attorney General or the delegate of
31 the Department of State Police shall not authorize
32 the issuance under this Section of more than one

23 provisions and purposes of this Section.
24 (2) Effect on other orders, rules, and laws. Any
25 such demand which is an express demand for any product of
26 discovery supersedes any inconsistent order, rule, or
27 provision of law (other than this Section) preventing or
28 restraining disclosure of such product of discovery to
29 any person. Disclosure of any product of discovery
30 pursuant to any such express demand does not constitute a
31 waiver of any right or privilege which the person making
32 make such disclosure may be entitled to invoke to resist
33 discovery of trial preparation materials.

14 any circuit court under this subsection (j), such court
15 shall have jurisdiction to hear and determine the matter
16 so presented, and to enter such orders as may be required
17 to carry out the provisions of this Section. Any final
18 order so entered shall be subject to appeal in the same
19 manner as appeals of other final orders in civil matters.

29 Section 87. The Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of
30 Marriage Act is amended by changing Sections 505, 505.3, and
31 510 as follows:
32 (750 ILCS 5/505) (from Ch. 40, par. 505)
SB1854 Enrolled -771- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Sec. 505. Child support; contempt; penalties.
2 (a) In a proceeding for dissolution of marriage, legal
3 separation, declaration of invalidity of marriage, a
4 proceeding for child support following dissolution of the
5 marriage by a court which lacked personal jurisdiction over
6 the absent spouse, a proceeding for modification of a
7 previous order for child support under Section 510 of this
8 Act, or any proceeding authorized under Section 501 or 601 of
9 this Act, the court may order either or both parents owing a
10 duty of support to a child of the marriage to pay an amount
11 reasonable and necessary for his support, without regard to
12 marital misconduct. The duty of support owed to a minor
13 child includes the obligation to provide for the reasonable
14 and necessary physical, mental and emotional health needs of
15 the child.
16 (1) The Court shall determine the minimum amount of
17 support by using the following guidelines:
18 Number of Children Percent of Supporting Party's
19 Net Income
20 1 20%
21 2 25%
22 3 32%
23 4 40%
24 5 45%
25 6 or more 50%
26 (2) The above guidelines shall be applied in each
27 case unless the court makes a finding that application of
28 the guidelines would be inappropriate, after considering
29 the best interests of the child in light of evidence
30 including but not limited to one or more of the following
31 relevant factors:
32 (a) the financial resources and needs of the
33 child;
34 (b) the financial resources and needs of the
SB1854 Enrolled -772- LRB9215370EGfg
1 custodial parent;
2 (c) the standard of living the child would
3 have enjoyed had the marriage not been dissolved;
4 (d) the physical and emotional condition of
5 the child, and his educational needs; and
6 (e) the financial resources and needs of the
7 non-custodial parent.
8 If the court deviates from the guidelines, the
9 court's finding shall state the amount of support that
10 would have been required under the guidelines, if
11 determinable. The court shall include the reason or
12 reasons for the variance from the guidelines.
13 (3) "Net income" is defined as the total of all
14 income from all sources, minus the following deductions:
15 (a) Federal income tax (properly calculated
16 withholding or estimated payments);
17 (b) State income tax (properly calculated
18 withholding or estimated payments);
19 (c) Social Security (FICA payments);
20 (d) Mandatory retirement contributions
21 required by law or as a condition of employment;
22 (e) Union dues;
23 (f) Dependent and individual
24 health/hospitalization insurance premiums;
25 (g) Prior obligations of support or
26 maintenance actually paid pursuant to a court order;
27 (h) Expenditures for repayment of debts that
28 represent reasonable and necessary expenses for the
29 production of income, medical expenditures necessary
30 to preserve life or health, reasonable expenditures
31 for the benefit of the child and the other parent,
32 exclusive of gifts. The court shall reduce net
33 income in determining the minimum amount of support
34 to be ordered only for the period that such payments
SB1854 Enrolled -773- LRB9215370EGfg
1 are due and shall enter an order containing
2 provisions for its self-executing modification upon
3 termination of such payment period.
4 (4) In cases where the court order provides for
5 health/hospitalization insurance coverage pursuant to
6 Section 505.2 of this Act, the premiums for that
7 insurance, or that portion of the premiums for which the
8 supporting party is responsible in the case of insurance
9 provided through an employer's health insurance plan
10 where the employer pays a portion of the premiums, shall
11 be subtracted from net income in determining the minimum
12 amount of support to be ordered.
13 (4.5) In a proceeding for child support following
14 dissolution of the marriage by a court that lacked
15 personal jurisdiction over the absent spouse, and in
16 which the court is requiring payment of support for the
17 period before the date an order for current support is
18 entered, there is a rebuttable presumption that the
19 supporting party's net income for the prior period was
20 the same as his or her net income at the time the order
21 for current support is entered.
22 (5) If the net income cannot be determined because
23 of default or any other reason, the court shall order
24 support in an amount considered reasonable in the
25 particular case. The final order in all cases shall
26 state the support level in dollar amounts. However, if
27 the court finds that the child support amount cannot be
28 expressed exclusively as a dollar amount because all or a
29 portion of the payor's net income is uncertain as to
30 source, time of payment, or amount, the court may order a
31 percentage amount of support in addition to a specific
32 dollar amount and enter such other orders as may be
33 necessary to determine and enforce, on a timely basis,
34 the applicable support ordered.
SB1854 Enrolled -774- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (6) If (i) the non-custodial parent was properly
2 served with a request for discovery of financial
3 information relating to the non-custodial parent's
4 ability to provide child support, (ii) the non-custodial
5 parent failed to comply with the request, despite having
6 been ordered to do so by the court, and (iii) the
7 non-custodial parent is not present at the hearing to
8 determine support despite having received proper notice,
9 then any relevant financial information concerning the
10 non-custodial parent's ability to provide child support
11 that was obtained pursuant to subpoena and proper notice
12 shall be admitted into evidence without the need to
13 establish any further foundation for its admission.
14 (a-5) In an action to enforce an order for support based
15 on the respondent's failure to make support payments as
16 required by the order, notice of proceedings to hold the
17 respondent in contempt for that failure may be served on the
18 respondent by personal service or by regular mail addressed
19 to the respondent's last known address. The respondent's last
20 known address may be determined from records of the clerk of
21 the court, from the Federal Case Registry of Child Support
22 Orders, or by any other reasonable means.
23 (b) Failure of either parent to comply with an order to
24 pay support shall be punishable as in other cases of
25 contempt. In addition to other penalties provided by law the
26 Court may, after finding the parent guilty of contempt, order
27 that the parent be:
28 (1) placed on probation with such conditions of
29 probation as the Court deems advisable;
30 (2) sentenced to periodic imprisonment for a period
31 not to exceed 6 months; provided, however, that the Court
32 may permit the parent to be released for periods of time
33 during the day or night to:
34 (A) work; or
SB1854 Enrolled -775- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (B) conduct a business or other self-employed
2 occupation.
3 The Court may further order any part or all of the
4 earnings of a parent during a sentence of periodic
5 imprisonment paid to the Clerk of the Circuit Court or to the
6 parent having custody or to the guardian having custody of
7 the minor children of the sentenced parent for the support of
8 said minor children until further order of the Court.
9 If there is a unity of interest and ownership sufficient
10 to render no financial separation between a non-custodial
11 parent and another person or persons or business entity, the
12 court may pierce the ownership veil of the person, persons,
13 or business entity to discover assets of the non-custodial
14 parent held in the name of that person, those persons, or
15 that business entity. The following circumstances are
16 sufficient to authorize a court to order discovery of the
17 assets of a person, persons, or business entity and to compel
18 the application of any discovered assets toward payment on
19 the judgment for support:
20 (1) the non-custodial parent and the person,
21 persons, or business entity maintain records together.
22 (2) the non-custodial parent and the person,
23 persons, or business entity fail to maintain an arms
24 length relationship between themselves with regard to any
25 assets.
26 (3) the non-custodial parent transfers assets to
27 the person, persons, or business entity with the intent
28 to perpetrate a fraud on the custodial parent.
29 With respect to assets which are real property, no order
30 entered under this paragraph shall affect the rights of bona
31 fide purchasers, mortgagees, judgment creditors, or other
32 lien holders who acquire their interests in the property
33 prior to the time a notice of lis pendens pursuant to the
34 Code of Civil Procedure or a copy of the order is placed of
SB1854 Enrolled -776- LRB9215370EGfg
1 record in the office of the recorder of deeds for the county
2 in which the real property is located.
3 The court may also order in cases where the parent is 90
4 days or more delinquent in payment of support or has been
5 adjudicated in arrears in an amount equal to 90 days
6 obligation or more, that the parent's Illinois driving
7 privileges be suspended until the court determines that the
8 parent is in compliance with the order of support. The court
9 may also order that the parent be issued a family financial
10 responsibility driving permit that would allow limited
11 driving privileges for employment and medical purposes in
12 accordance with Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code.
13 The clerk of the circuit court shall certify the order
14 suspending the driving privileges of the parent or granting
15 the issuance of a family financial responsibility driving
16 permit to the Secretary of State on forms prescribed by the
17 Secretary. Upon receipt of the authenticated documents, the
18 Secretary of State shall suspend the parent's driving
19 privileges until further order of the court and shall, if
20 ordered by the court, subject to the provisions of Section
21 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, issue a family
22 financial responsibility driving permit to the parent.
23 In addition to the penalties or punishment that may be
24 imposed under this Section, any person whose conduct
25 constitutes a violation of Section 15 of the Non-Support
26 Punishment Act may be prosecuted under that Act, and a person
27 convicted under that Act may be sentenced in accordance with
28 that Act. The sentence may include but need not be limited
29 to a requirement that the person perform community service
30 under Section 50 of that Act or participate in a work
31 alternative program under Section 50 of that Act. A person
32 may not be required to participate in a work alternative
33 program under Section 50 of that Act if the person is
34 currently participating in a work program pursuant to Section
SB1854 Enrolled -777- LRB9215370EGfg
1 505.1 of this Act.
2 A support obligation, or any portion of a support
3 obligation, which becomes due and remains unpaid for 30 days
4 or more shall accrue simple interest at the rate of 9% per
5 annum. An order for support entered or modified on or after
6 January 1, 2002 shall contain a statement that a support
7 obligation required under the order, or any portion of a
8 support obligation required under the order, that becomes due
9 and remains unpaid for 30 days or more shall accrue simple
10 interest at the rate of 9% per annum. Failure to include the
11 statement in the order for support does not affect the
12 validity of the order or the accrual of interest as provided
13 in this Section.
14 (c) A one-time charge of 20% is imposable upon the
15 amount of past-due child support owed on July 1, 1988 which
16 has accrued under a support order entered by the court. The
17 charge shall be imposed in accordance with the provisions of
18 Section 10-21 of the Illinois Public Aid Code and shall be
19 enforced by the court upon petition.
20 (d) Any new or existing support order entered by the
21 court under this Section shall be deemed to be a series of
22 judgments against the person obligated to pay support
23 thereunder, each such judgment to be in the amount of each
24 payment or installment of support and each such judgment to
25 be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment or
26 installment becomes due under the terms of the support order.
27 Each such judgment shall have the full force, effect and
28 attributes of any other judgment of this State, including the
29 ability to be enforced. A lien arises by operation of law
30 against the real and personal property of the noncustodial
31 parent for each installment of overdue support owed by the
32 noncustodial parent.
33 (e) When child support is to be paid through the clerk
34 of the court in a county of 1,000,000 inhabitants or less,
SB1854 Enrolled -778- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the order shall direct the obligor to pay to the clerk, in
2 addition to the child support payments, all fees imposed by
3 the county board under paragraph (3) of subsection (u) of
4 Section 27.1 of the Clerks of Courts Act. Unless paid in
5 cash or pursuant to an order for withholding, the payment of
6 the fee shall be by a separate instrument from the support
7 payment and shall be made to the order of the Clerk.
8 (f) All orders for support, when entered or modified,
9 shall include a provision requiring the obligor to notify the
10 court and, in cases in which a party is receiving child and
11 spouse services under Article X of the Illinois Public Aid
12 Code, the Illinois Department of Public Aid, within 7 days,
13 (i) of the name and address of any new employer of the
14 obligor, (ii) whether the obligor has access to health
15 insurance coverage through the employer or other group
16 coverage and, if so, the policy name and number and the names
17 of persons covered under the policy, and (iii) of any new
18 residential or mailing address or telephone number of the
19 non-custodial parent. In any subsequent action to enforce a
20 support order, upon a sufficient showing that a diligent
21 effort has been made to ascertain the location of the
22 non-custodial parent, service of process or provision of
23 notice necessary in the case may be made at the last known
24 address of the non-custodial parent in any manner expressly
25 provided by the Code of Civil Procedure or this Act, which
26 service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process.
27 (g) An order for support shall include a date on which
28 the current support obligation terminates. The termination
29 date shall be no earlier than the date on which the child
30 covered by the order will attain the age of majority or is
31 otherwise emancipated. The order for support shall state that
32 the termination date does not apply to any arrearage that may
33 remain unpaid on that date. Nothing in this subsection shall
34 be construed to prevent the court from modifying the order.
SB1854 Enrolled -779- LRB9215370EGfg
1 (h) An order entered under this Section shall include a
2 provision requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and
3 to the clerk of court within 10 days each time the obligor
4 obtains new employment, and each time the obligor's
5 employment is terminated for any reason. The report shall be
6 in writing and shall, in the case of new employment, include
7 the name and address of the new employer. Failure to report
8 new employment or the termination of current employment, if
9 coupled with nonpayment of support for a period in excess of
10 60 days, is indirect criminal contempt. For any obligor
11 arrested for failure to report new employment bond shall be
12 set in the amount of the child support that should have been
13 paid during the period of unreported employment. An order
14 entered under this Section shall also include a provision
15 requiring the obligor and obligee parents to advise each
16 other of a change in residence within 5 days of the change
17 except when the court finds that the physical, mental, or
18 emotional health of a party or that of a minor child, or
19 both, would be seriously endangered by disclosure of the
20 party's address.
21 (i) The court does not lose the powers of contempt,
22 driver's license suspension, or other child support
23 enforcement mechanisms, including, but not limited to,
24 criminal prosecution as set forth in this Act, upon the
25 emancipation of the minor child or children.

11 Security Act or by the federal Department of Health and Human
12 Services) at the time of entry or modification of the order
13 for support and (ii) file updated information with the clerk
14 within 5 business days of any change. Failure of the obligor
15 or obligee to file or update the required information shall
16 be punishable as in cases of contempt. The failure shall not
17 prevent the court from entering or modifying the order for
18 support, however.
19 (c) The obligor shall file the following information:
20 the obligor's name, date of birth, social security number,
21 and mailing address.

3 (4) The obligee's mailing address.
4 (e) In cases in which the obligee receives child support

10 Registry, rather than file the information with the clerk,
11 and (ii) require that the obligee include the following
12 additional information:

17 Sec. 510. Modification and termination of provisions for
18 maintenance, support, educational expenses, and property
19 disposition.
20 (a) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (f) of
21 Section 502 and in subsection (b) (d), clause (3) of Section
22 505.2, the provisions of any judgment respecting maintenance
23 or support may be modified only as to installments accruing
24 subsequent to due notice by the moving party of the filing of
25 the motion for modification and, with respect to maintenance,
26 only upon a showing of a substantial change in circumstances.
27 An order for child support may be modified as follows:
28 (1) upon a showing of a substantial change in
29 circumstances; and
30 (2) without the necessity of showing a substantial
31 change in circumstances, as follows:
32 (A) upon a showing of an inconsistency of at
33 least 20%, but no less than $10 per month, between
SB1854 Enrolled -783- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the amount of the existing order and the amount of
2 child support that results from application of the
3 guidelines specified in Section 505 of this Act
4 unless the inconsistency is due to the fact that the
5 amount of the existing order resulted from a
6 deviation from the guideline amount and there has
7 not been a change in the circumstances that resulted
8 in that deviation; or
9 (B) Upon a showing of a need to provide for
10 the health care needs of the child under the order
11 through health insurance or other means. In no
12 event shall the eligibility for or receipt of
13 medical assistance be considered to meet the need to
14 provide for the child's health care needs.
15 The provisions of subparagraph (a)(2)(A) shall apply only
16 in cases in which a party is receiving child and spouse
17 support services from the Illinois Department of Public Aid
18 under Article X of the Illinois Public Aid Code, and only
19 when at least 36 months have elapsed since the order for
20 child support was entered or last modified.
21 (b) The provisions as to property disposition may not be
22 revoked or modified, unless the court finds the existence of
23 conditions that justify the reopening of a judgment under the
24 laws of this State.
25 (c) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in a written
26 agreement set forth in the judgment or otherwise approved by
27 the court, the obligation to pay future maintenance is
28 terminated upon the death of either party, or the remarriage
29 of the party receiving maintenance, or if the party receiving
30 maintenance cohabits with another person on a resident,
31 continuing conjugal basis.
32 (d) Unless otherwise agreed in writing or expressly
33 provided in a judgment, provisions for the support of a child
34 are terminated by emancipation of the child, except as
SB1854 Enrolled -784- LRB9215370EGfg
1 otherwise provided herein, but not by the death of a parent
2 obligated to support or educate the child. An existing
3 obligation to pay for support or educational expenses, or
4 both, is not terminated by the death of a parent. When a
5 parent obligated to pay support or educational expenses, or
6 both, dies, the amount of support or educational expenses, or
7 both, may be enforced, modified, revoked or commuted to a
8 lump sum payment, as equity may require, and that
9 determination may be provided for at the time of the
10 dissolution of the marriage or thereafter.
11 (e) The right to petition for support or educational
12 expenses, or both, under Sections 505 and 513 is not
13 extinguished by the death of a parent. Upon a petition filed
14 before or after a parent's death, the court may award sums of
15 money out of the decedent's estate for the child's support or
16 educational expenses, or both, as equity may require. The
17 time within which a claim may be filed against the estate of
18 a decedent under Sections 505 and 513 and subsection (d) and
19 this subsection shall be governed by the provisions of the
20 Probate Act of 1975, as a barrable, noncontingent claim.
21 (f) A petition to modify or terminate child support,
22 custody, or visitation shall not delay any child support
23 enforcement litigation or supplementary proceeding on behalf
24 of the obligee, including, but not limited to, a petition for
25 a rule to show cause, for non-wage garnishment, or for a
26 restraining order.

1 an offender under this Act, the court may order the offender
2 to perform community service for not less than 30 and not
3 more than 120 hours per month, if community service is
4 available in the jurisdiction and is funded and approved by
5 the county board of the county where the offense was
6 committed. In addition, whenever any person is placed on
7 supervision for committing an offense under this Act, the
8 supervision shall be conditioned on the performance of the
9 community service.
10 (b) In addition to any other penalties imposed against an
11 offender under this Act, the court may sentence the offender
12 to service in a work alternative program administered by the
13 sheriff. The conditions of the program are that the offender
14 obtain or retain employment and participate in a work
15 alternative program administered by the sheriff during
16 non-working hours. A person may not be required to
17 participate in a work alternative program under this
18 subsection if the person is currently participating in a work
19 program pursuant to another provision of this Act, Section
20 10-11.1 of the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 505.1 of the
21 Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, or Section
22 15.1 of the Illinois Parentage Act of 1984.
23 (c) In addition to any other penalties imposed against
24 an offender under this Act, the court may order, in cases
25 where the offender has been in violation of this Act for 90
26 days or more, that the offender's Illinois driving privileges
27 be suspended until the court determines that the offender is
28 in compliance with this Act.
29 The court may determine that the offender is in
30 compliance with this Act if the offender has agreed (i) to
31 pay all required amounts of support and maintenance as
32 determined by the court or (ii) to the garnishment of his or
33 her income for the purpose of paying those amounts.
34 The court may also order that the offender be issued a
SB1854 Enrolled -786- LRB9215370EGfg
1 family financial responsibility driving permit that would
2 allow limited driving privileges for employment and medical
3 purposes in accordance with Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois
4 Vehicle Code. The clerk of the circuit court shall certify
5 the order suspending the driving privileges of the offender
6 or granting the issuance of a family financial responsibility
7 driving permit to the Secretary of State on forms prescribed
8 by the Secretary. Upon receipt of the authenticated
9 documents, the Secretary of State shall suspend the
10 offender's driving privileges until further order of the
11 court and shall, if ordered by the court, subject to the
12 provisions of Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code,
13 issue a family financial responsibility driving permit to the
14 offender.
15 (d) If the court determines that the offender has been
16 in violation of this Act for more than 60 days, the court may
17 determine whether the offender has applied for or been issued
18 a professional license by the Department of Professional
19 Regulation or another licensing agency. If the court
20 determines that the offender has applied for or been issued
21 such a license, the court may certify to the Department of
22 Professional Regulation or other licensing agency that the
23 offender has been in violation of this Act for more than 60
24 days so that the Department or other agency may take
25 appropriate steps with respect to the license or application
26 as provided in Section 10-65 of the Illinois Administrative
27 Procedure Act and Section 2105-15 of the Department of
28 Professional Regulation Law 60 of the Civil Administrative
29 Code of Illinois. The court may take the actions required
30 under this subsection in addition to imposing any other
31 penalty authorized under this Act.

13 whose parent has executed a final irrevocable consent to
14 adoption or a final irrevocable surrender for purposes of

17 consent is determined to be void or is void pursuant to
18 subsection O of Section 10.
19 C. "Agency" for the purpose of this Act means a public
20 child welfare agency or a licensed child welfare agency.
21 D. "Unfit person" means any person whom the court shall
22 find to be unfit to have a child, without regard to the
23 likelihood that the child will be placed for adoption. The
24 grounds of unfitness are any one or more of the following,
25 except that a person shall not be considered an unfit person

17 recent of which was determined by the juvenile court
18 hearing the matter to be supported by clear and
19 convincing evidence; a criminal conviction or a finding
20 of not guilty by reason of insanity resulting from the
21 death of any child by physical child abuse; or a finding

34 under either this Act, the Juvenile Court Act or the
SB1854 Enrolled -789- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
2 (i) Depravity. Conviction of any one of the
3 following crimes shall create a presumption that a parent
4 is depraved which can be overcome only by clear and

6 of paragraph 1 or 2 of subsection (a) of Section 9-1 of
7 the Criminal Code of 1961 or conviction of second degree

27 rights.
28 There is a rebuttable presumption that a parent is
29 depraved if that parent has been criminally convicted of
30 either first or second degree murder of any person as
31 defined in the Criminal Code of 1961 within 10 years of
32 the filing date of the petition or motion to terminate
33 parental rights.
34 (j) Open and notorious adultery or fornication.

2 (k) Habitual drunkenness or addiction to drugs,
3 other than those prescribed by a physician, for at least
4 one year immediately prior to the commencement of the

8 which that parent gives birth where there is a confirmed
9 test result that at birth the child's blood, urine, or
10 meconium contained any amount of a controlled substance
11 as defined in subsection (f) of Section 102 of the
12 Illinois Controlled Substances Act or metabolites of such
13 substances, the presence of which in the newborn infant
14 was not the result of medical treatment administered to
15 the mother or the newborn infant; and the biological
16 mother of this child is the biological mother of at least
17 one other child who was adjudicated a neglected minor
18 under subsection (c) of Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court
19 Act of 1987.
20 (l) Failure to demonstrate a reasonable degree of
21 interest, concern or responsibility as to the welfare of
22 a new born child during the first 30 days after its
23 birth.
24 (m) Failure by a parent (i) to make reasonable
25 efforts to correct the conditions that were the basis for
26 the removal of the child from the parent, or (ii) to make
27 reasonable progress toward the return of the child to the
28 parent within 9 months after an adjudication of neglected
29 or abused minor under Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court
30 Act of 1987 or dependent minor under Section 2-4 of that
31 Act, or (iii) to make reasonable progress toward the
32 return of the child to the parent during any 9-month
33 period after the end of the initial 9-month period
34 following the adjudication of neglected or abused minor
SB1854 Enrolled -791- LRB9215370EGfg
1 under Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 or
2 dependent minor under Section 2-4 of that Act. If a
3 service plan has been established as required under
4 Section 8.2 of the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting
5 Act to correct the conditions that were the basis for the
6 removal of the child from the parent and if those
7 services were available, then, for purposes of this Act,
8 "failure to make reasonable progress toward the return of
9 the child to the parent" includes (I) the parent's
10 failure to substantially fulfill his or her obligations
11 under the service plan and correct the conditions that
12 brought the child into care within 9 months after the
13 adjudication under Section 2-3 or 2-4 of the Juvenile
14 Court Act of 1987 and (II) the parent's failure to
15 substantially fulfill his or her obligations under the
16 service plan and correct the conditions that brought the

18 of the initial 9-month period following the adjudication
19 under Section 2-3 or 2-4 of the Juvenile Court Act of
20 1987.
21 (m-1) Pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, a
22 child has been in foster care for 15 months out of any 22
23 month period which begins on or after the effective date
24 of this amendatory Act of 1998 unless the child's parent
25 can prove by a preponderance of the evidence that it is
26 more likely than not that it will be in the best
27 interests of the child to be returned to the parent
28 within 6 months of the date on which a petition for
29 termination of parental rights is filed under the
30 Juvenile Court Act of 1987. The 15 month time limit is
31 tolled during any period for which there is a court
32 finding that the appointed custodian or guardian failed
33 to make reasonable efforts to reunify the child with his
34 or her family, provided that (i) the finding of no
SB1854 Enrolled -792- LRB9215370EGfg
1 reasonable efforts is made within 60 days of the period
2 when reasonable efforts were not made or (ii) the parent
3 filed a motion requesting a finding of no reasonable
4 efforts within 60 days of the period when reasonable
5 efforts were not made. For purposes of this subdivision
6 (m-1), the date of entering foster care is the earlier
7 of: (i) the date of a judicial finding at an adjudicatory
8 hearing that the child is an abused, neglected, or
9 dependent minor; or (ii) 60 days after the date on which
10 the child is removed from his or her parent, guardian, or
11 legal custodian.
12 (n) Evidence of intent to forgo his or her parental
13 rights, whether or not the child is a ward of the court,
14 (1) as manifested by his or her failure for a period of
15 12 months: (i) to visit the child, (ii) to communicate
16 with the child or agency, although able to do so and not
17 prevented from doing so by an agency or by court order,
18 or (iii) to maintain contact with or plan for the future
19 of the child, although physically able to do so, or (2)
20 as manifested by the father's failure, where he and the
21 mother of the child were unmarried to each other at the
22 time of the child's birth, (i) to commence legal
23 proceedings to establish his paternity under the Illinois
24 Parentage Act of 1984 or the law of the jurisdiction of
25 the child's birth within 30 days of being informed,
26 pursuant to Section 12a of this Act, that he is the
27 father or the likely father of the child or, after being
28 so informed where the child is not yet born, within 30
29 days of the child's birth, or (ii) to make a good faith
30 effort to pay a reasonable amount of the expenses related
31 to the birth of the child and to provide a reasonable
32 amount for the financial support of the child, the court
33 to consider in its determination all relevant
34 circumstances, including the financial condition of both
SB1854 Enrolled -793- LRB9215370EGfg
1 parents; provided that the ground for termination
2 provided in this subparagraph (n)(2)(ii) shall only be
3 available where the petition is brought by the mother or
4 the husband of the mother.
5 Contact or communication by a parent with his or her
6 child that does not demonstrate affection and concern
7 does not constitute reasonable contact and planning under
8 subdivision (n). In the absence of evidence to the
9 contrary, the ability to visit, communicate, maintain
10 contact, pay expenses and plan for the future shall be
11 presumed. The subjective intent of the parent, whether
12 expressed or otherwise, unsupported by evidence of the
13 foregoing parental acts manifesting that intent, shall
14 not preclude a determination that the parent has intended
15 to forgo his or her parental rights. In making this
16 determination, the court may consider but shall not
17 require a showing of diligent efforts by an authorized
18 agency to encourage the parent to perform the acts
19 specified in subdivision (n).
20 It shall be an affirmative defense to any allegation
21 under paragraph (2) of this subsection that the father's
22 failure was due to circumstances beyond his control or to
23 impediments created by the mother or any other person
24 having legal custody. Proof of that fact need only be by
25 a preponderance of the evidence.
26 (o) Repeated or continuous failure by the parents,
27 although physically and financially able, to provide the
28 child with adequate food, clothing, or shelter.
29 (p) Inability to discharge parental
30 responsibilities supported by competent evidence from a
31 psychiatrist, licensed clinical social worker, or
32 clinical psychologist of mental impairment, mental
33 illness or mental retardation as defined in Section 1-116
34 of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code,
SB1854 Enrolled -794- LRB9215370EGfg
1 or developmental disability as defined in Section 1-106
2 of that Code, and there is sufficient justification to
3 believe that the inability to discharge parental
4 responsibilities shall extend beyond a reasonable time
5 period. However, this subdivision (p) shall not be
6 construed so as to permit a licensed clinical social
7 worker to conduct any medical diagnosis to determine
8 mental illness or mental impairment.
9 (q) The parent has been criminally convicted of
10 aggravated battery, heinous battery, or attempted murder
11 of any child.
12 (r) The child is in the temporary custody or
13 guardianship of the Department of Children and Family
14 Services, the parent is incarcerated as a result of
15 criminal conviction at the time the petition or motion
16 for termination of parental rights is filed, prior to
17 incarceration the parent had little or no contact with
18 the child or provided little or no support for the child,
19 and the parent's incarceration will prevent the parent
20 from discharging his or her parental responsibilities for
21 the child for a period in excess of 2 years after the
22 filing of the petition or motion for termination of
23 parental rights.
24 (s) The child is in the temporary custody or
25 guardianship of the Department of Children and Family
26 Services, the parent is incarcerated at the time the
27 petition or motion for termination of parental rights is
28 filed, the parent has been repeatedly incarcerated as a
29 result of criminal convictions, and the parent's repeated
30 incarceration has prevented the parent from discharging
31 his or her parental responsibilities for the child.
32 (t) A finding that at birth the child's blood,
33 urine, or meconium contained any amount of a controlled
34 substance as defined in subsection (f) of Section 102 of
SB1854 Enrolled -795- LRB9215370EGfg
1 the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, or a metabolite
2 of a controlled substance, with the exception of
3 controlled substances or metabolites of such substances,
4 the presence of which in the newborn infant was the
5 result of medical treatment administered to the mother or
6 the newborn infant, and that the biological mother of
7 this child is the biological mother of at least one other
8 child who was adjudicated a neglected minor under
9 subsection (c) of Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act
10 of 1987, after which the biological mother had the
11 opportunity to enroll in and participate in a clinically
12 appropriate substance abuse counseling, treatment, and
13 rehabilitation program.
14 E. "Parent" means the father or mother of a legitimate
15 or illegitimate child. For the purpose of this Act, a person
16 who has executed a final and irrevocable consent to adoption
17 or a final and irrevocable surrender for purposes of
18 adoption, or whose parental rights have been terminated by a
19 court, is not a parent of the child who was the subject of
20 the consent or surrender, unless the consent is void pursuant
21 to subsection O of Section 10.
22 F. A person is available for adoption when the person
23 is:
24 (a) a child who has been surrendered for adoption
25 to an agency and to whose adoption the agency has
26 thereafter consented;
27 (b) a child to whose adoption a person authorized
28 by law, other than his parents, has consented, or to
29 whose adoption no consent is required pursuant to Section
30 8 of this Act;
31 (c) a child who is in the custody of persons who
32 intend to adopt him through placement made by his
33 parents;
34 (c-1) a child for whom a parent has signed a
SB1854 Enrolled -796- LRB9215370EGfg
1 specific consent pursuant to subsection O of Section 10;
2 (d) an adult who meets the conditions set forth in
3 Section 3 of this Act; or
4 (e) a child who has been relinquished as defined in
5 Section 10 of the Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection
6 Act.
7 A person who would otherwise be available for adoption
8 shall not be deemed unavailable for adoption solely by reason
9 of his or her death.
10 G. The singular includes the plural and the plural
11 includes the singular and the "male" includes the "female",

29 (815 ILCS 602/5-60)
30 Sec. 5-60. Investigations and subpoenas.
31 (a) The Secretary of State:
32 (1) may make such public or private investigations
SB1854 Enrolled -816- LRB9215370EGfg
1 within or outside of this State as the Secretary of State
2 deems necessary to determine whether any person has
3 violated or is about to violate any provision of this Law
4 or any rule, regulation, or order under this Law, or to
5 aid in the enforcement of this Law or in the prescribing
6 of rules and forms under this Law;

2 Section 96. The Motor Vehicle Franchise Act is amended
3 by changing Section 6 as follows:
4 (815 ILCS 710/6) (from Ch. 121 1/2, par. 756)
5 Sec. 6. Warranty agreements; claims; approval; payment;
6 written disapproval.
7 (a) Every manufacturer, distributor, wholesaler,
8 distributor branch or division, factory branch or division,
9 or wholesale branch or division shall properly fulfill any
10 warranty agreement and adequately and fairly compensate each
11 of its motor vehicle dealers for labor and parts.
12 (b) In no event shall such compensation fail to include
13 reasonable compensation for diagnostic work, as well as
14 repair service, labor, and parts. Time allowances for the
15 diagnosis and performance of warranty work and service shall
16 be reasonable and adequate for the work to be performed. In
17 the determination of what constitutes reasonable compensation
18 under this Section, the principal factor to be given
19 consideration shall be the prevailing wage rates being paid
20 by the dealer in the relevant market area in which the motor
21 vehicle dealer is doing business, and in no event shall such
22 compensation of a motor vehicle dealer for warranty service
23 be less than the rates charged by such dealer for like
24 service to retail customers for nonwarranty service and
25 repairs. The franchiser shall reimburse the franchisee for
26 any parts provided in satisfaction of a warranty at the
27 prevailing retail price charged by that dealer for the same
28 parts when not provided in satisfaction of a warranty;
29 provided that such motor vehicle franchisee's prevailing
30 retail price is not unreasonable when compared with that of
31 the holders of motor vehicle franchises from the same motor
32 vehicle franchiser for identical merchandise in the
SB1854 Enrolled -818- LRB9215370EGfg
1 geographic area in which the motor vehicle franchisee is
2 engaged in business. All claims, either original or
3 resubmitted, made by motor vehicle dealers hereunder and
4 under Section 5 for such labor and parts shall be either
5 approved or disapproved within 30 days following their
6 submission. All approved claims shall be paid within 30 days
7 following their approval. The motor vehicle dealer who
8 submits a claim which is disapproved shall be notified in
9 writing of the disapproval within the same period, and each
10 such notice shall state the specific grounds upon which the
11 disapproval is based. The motor vehicle dealer shall be
12 permitted to correct and resubmit such disapproved claims
13 within 30 days of receipt of disapproval. Any claims not
14 specifically disapproved in writing within 30 days from their
15 submission shall be deemed approved and payment shall follow
16 within 30 days. The manufacturer or franchiser shall have
17 the right to require reasonable documentation for claims and
18 to audit such claims within a one year period from the date
19 the claim was paid or credit issued by the manufacturer or
20 franchiser, and to charge back any false or unsubstantiated
21 claims. The audit and charge back provisions of this Section
22 also apply to all other incentive and reimbursement programs
23 for a period of 18 months after the date of the transactions
24 that are subject to audit by the franchiser. However, the
25 manufacturer retains the right to charge back any fraudulent
26 claim if the manufacturer establishes in a court of competent
27 jurisdiction in this State that the claim is fraudulent.
28 (c) The motor vehicle franchiser shall not, by
29 agreement, by restrictions upon reimbursement, or otherwise,
30 restrict the nature and extent of services to be rendered or
31 parts to be provided so that such restriction prevents the
32 motor vehicle franchisee from satisfying the warranty by
33 rendering services in a good and workmanlike manner and
34 providing parts which are required in accordance with
SB1854 Enrolled -819- LRB9215370EGfg
1 generally accepted standards. Any such restriction shall
2 constitute a prohibited practice.
3 (d) For the purposes of this Section, the "prevailing
4 retail price charged by that dealer for the same parts" means
5 the price paid by the motor vehicle franchisee for parts,
6 including all shipping and other charges, multiplied by the
7 sum of 1.0 and the franchisee's average percentage markup
8 over the price paid by the motor vehicle franchisee for parts
9 purchased by the motor vehicle franchisee from the motor
10 vehicle franchiser and sold at retail. The motor vehicle
11 franchisee may establish average percentage markup under this
12 Section by submitting to the motor vehicle franchiser 100
13 sequential customer paid service repair orders or 90 days of
14 customer paid service repair orders, whichever is less,
15 covering repairs made no more than 180 days before the
16 submission, and declaring what the average percentage markup
17 is. The average percentage markup so declared shall go into
18 effect 30 days following the declaration, subject to audit of
19 the submitted repair orders by the motor vehicle franchiser
20 and adjustment of the average percentage markup based on that
21 audit. Any audit must be conducted within 30 days following
22 the declaration. Only retail sales not involving warranty
23 repairs, parts covered by subsection (e) of this Section, or
24 parts supplied for routine vehicle maintenance, shall be
25 considered in calculating average percentage markup. No
26 motor vehicle franchiser shall require a motor vehicle
27 franchisee to establish average percentage markup by a
28 methodology, or by requiring information, that is unduly
29 burdensome or time consuming to provide, including, but not
30 limited to, part by part or transaction by transaction
31 calculations. A motor vehicle franchisee shall not request a
32 change in the average percentage markup more than twice in
33 one calendar year.
34 (e) If a motor vehicle franchiser supplies a part or
SB1854 Enrolled -820- LRB9215370EGfg
1 parts for use in a repair rendered under a warranty other
2 than by sale of that part or parts to the motor vehicle
3 franchisee, the motor vehicle franchisee shall be entitled to
4 compensation equivalent to the motor vehicle franchisee's
5 average percentage markup on the part or parts, as if the
6 part or parts had been sold to the motor vehicle franchisee
7 by the motor vehicle franchiser. The requirements of this
8 subsection (e) shall not apply to entire engine assemblies
9 and entire transmission assemblies. In the case of those
10 assemblies, the motor vehicle franchiser shall reimburse the
11 motor vehicle franchisee in the amount of 30% of what the
12 motor vehicle franchisee would have paid the motor vehicle
13 franchiser for the assembly if the assembly had not been
14 supplied by the franchiser other than by the sale of that
15 assembly to the motor vehicle franchisee.
16 (f) The obligations imposed on motor vehicle franchisers
17 by this Section shall apply to any parent, subsidiary,
18 affiliate, or agent of the motor vehicle franchiser, any
19 person under common ownership or control, any employee of the
20 motor vehicle franchiser, and any person holding 1% or more
21 of the shares of any class of securities or other ownership
22 interest in the motor vehicle franchiser, if a warranty or
23 service or repair plan is issued by that person instead of or
24 in addition to one issued by the motor vehicle franchiser.
25 (g) (1) Any motor vehicle franchiser and at least a
26 majority of its Illinois franchisees of the same line make
27 may agree in an express written contract citing this Section
28 upon a uniform warranty reimbursement policy used by
29 contracting franchisees to perform warranty repairs. The
30 policy shall only involve either reimbursement for parts used
31 in warranty repairs or the use of a Uniform Time Standards
32 Manual, or both. Reimbursement for parts under the agreement
33 shall be used instead of the franchisees' "prevailing retail
34 price charged by that dealer for the same parts" as defined
SB1854 Enrolled -821- LRB9215370EGfg
1 in this Section to calculate compensation due from the
2 franchiser for parts used in warranty repairs. This Section
3 does not authorize a franchiser and its Illinois franchisees
4 to establish a uniform hourly labor reimbursement.
5 Each franchiser shall only have one such agreement with
6 each line make. Any such agreement shall:
7 (A) Establish a uniform parts reimbursement rate.
8 The uniform parts reimbursement rate shall be greater
9 than the franchiser's nationally established parts
10 reimbursement rate in effect at the time the first such
11 agreement becomes effective; however, any subsequent
12 agreement shall result in a uniform reimbursement rate
13 that is greater or equal to the rate set forth in the
14 immediately prior agreement.
15 (B) Apply to all warranty repair orders written
16 during the period that the agreement is effective.
17 (C) Be available, during the period it is
18 effective, to any motor vehicle franchisee of the same
19 line make at any time and on the same terms.
20 (D) Be for a term not to exceed 3 years so long as
21 any party to the agreement may terminate the agreement
22 upon the annual anniversary of the agreement and with 30
23 days' prior written notice; however, the agreement shall
24 remain in effect for the term of the agreement regardless
25 of the number of dealers of the same line make that may
26 terminate the agreement.
27 (2) A franchiser that enters into an agreement with its
28 franchisees pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection (g)
29 may seek to recover its costs from only those franchisees
30 that are receiving their "prevailing retail price charged by
31 that dealer" under subsections (a) through (f) of this
32 Section, subject to the following requirements:
33 (A) "costs" means the difference between the
34 uniform reimbursement rate set forth in an agreement
SB1854 Enrolled -822- LRB9215370EGfg
1 entered into pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection
2 (g) and the "prevailing retail price charged by that
3 dealer" received by those franchisees of the same line
4 make;
5 (B) the costs shall be recovered only by increasing
6 the invoice price on new vehicles received by those
7 franchisees; and
8 (C) price increases imposed for the purpose of
9 recovering costs imposed by this Section may vary from
10 time to time and from model to model, but shall apply
11 uniformly to all franchisees of the same line make in the
12 State of Illinois that have requested reimbursement for
13 warranty repairs at their "prevailing retail price
14 charged by that dealer", except that a franchiser may
15 make an exception for vehicles that are titled in the
16 name of a consumer in another state.
17 (3) If a franchiser contracts with its Illinois dealers
18 pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection (g), the
19 franchiser shall certify under oath to the Motor Vehicle
20 Review Board that a majority of the franchisees of that line
21 make did agree to such an agreement and file a sample copy of
22 the agreement. On an annual basis, each franchiser shall
23 certify under oath to the Motor Vehicle Review Board that the
24 reimbursement costs it recovers under paragraph (2) of this
25 subsection (g) do not exceed the amounts authorized by
26 paragraph (2) of this subsection (g). The franchiser shall
27 maintain for a period of 3 years a file that contains the
28 information upon which its certification is based.
29 (4) If a franchiser and its franchisees do not enter
30 into an agreement pursuant to paragraph (1) of this
31 subsection (g), and for any matter that is not the subject of
32 an agreement, this subsection (g) shall have no effect
33 whatsoever.
34 (5) For purposes of this subsection (g), a Uniform Time
SB1854 Enrolled -823- LRB9215370EGfg
1 Standard Manual is a document created by a franchiser that
2 establishes the time allowances for the diagnosis and
3 performance of warranty work and service. The allowances
4 shall be reasonable and adequate for the work and service to
5 be performed. Each franchiser shall have a reasonable and
6 fair process that allows a franchisee to request a
7 modification or adjustment of a standard or standards
8 included in such a manual.

11 Section 97. The Public Safety Employee Benefits Act is
12 amended by changing Section 15 as follows:
13 (820 ILCS 320/15)
14 Sec. 15. Required educational benefits. If a
15 firefighter, law enforcement, or correctional or correctional
16 probation officer is accidentally or unlawfully and
17 intentionally killed as specified in subsection (b) of
18 Section 10 Section 5 on or after July 1, 1980, the State
19 shall waive certain educational expenses which children of
20 the deceased incur while obtaining a vocational-technical
21 certificate or an undergraduate education at a State
22 supported institution. The amount waived by the State shall
23 be an amount equal to the cost of tuition and matriculation
24 and registration fees for a total of 120 credit hours. The
25 child may attend a State vocational-technical school, a
26 public community college, or a State university. The child
27 may attend any or all of the institutions specified in this
28 Section, on either a full-time or part-time basis. The
29 benefits provided under this Section shall continue to the
30 child until the child's 25th birthday.
31 (1) Upon failure of any child benefited by the
32 provisions of this Section to comply with the ordinary
SB1854 Enrolled -824- LRB9215370EGfg
1 and minimum requirements of the institution attended,
2 both as to discipline and scholarship, the benefits shall
3 be withdrawn as to the child and no further moneys may be
4 expended for the child's benefits so long as the failure
5 or delinquency continues.
6 (2) Only a student in good standing in his or her
7 respective institution may receive the benefits under
8 this Section.
9 (3) A child receiving benefits under this Section
10 must be enrolled according to the customary rules and
11 requirements of the institution attended.
