AN ACT concerning State government.

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

Section 5. The Department of Central Management Services Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois is amended by adding Section 405-282 as follows:

(20 ILCS 405/405-282 new)

Sec. 405-282. Surplus vehicles. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, all State-owned vehicles that were reported in the Performance Audit of the State Vehicles Fleet released by the Office of the Auditor General in November 2011 to have been driven 7,000 miles or less in Fiscal Year 2010 are deemed surplus and shall be sold on or before January 1, 2016, or on a different date as procedures require, using existing rules, regulations, and procedures for the sale of surplus State vehicles. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, vehicles with remaining useful life may be recycled into the State vehicle fleet to replace mission critical vehicles with higher maintenance costs to reduce the overall cost of maintaining the fleet. The 7,000 mile requirement set forth in this Section includes all miles driven, including all miles driven while on official State business and all miles driven while not on official State business. This Section does not apply to vehicles driven by police or law enforcement personnel while on duty, vehicles driven by employees of public universities of the State, or to emergency vehicles, snow plows, or heavy equipment vehicles. Proceeds from the sale of each surplus vehicle under this Section shall be deposited in the same manner as proceeds from the sale of surplus vehicles for that vehicle's particular agency under current law. Exceptions to this Section may be granted by the Department for vehicles identified in the Performance Audit of the State Vehicles Fleet released by the Office of the Auditor General in November 2011 to have been driven 7,000 miles or less in Fiscal Year 2010 if the exception is justified under agency head signature because the vehicle is mission critical for State business that could not otherwise be performed without the vehicle. Other exceptions may be granted by the Department if the Agency certifies to the Department that the vehicle was driven at least 15,000 additional miles after the date of the audit and before the end of Fiscal Year 2012.

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