(15 ILCS 305/12) (from Ch. 124, par. 10.2)
Sec. 12. Parking fees; leases. (a) The Secretary of State shall impose a fee of $20 per month payable
by all State employees parking vehicles in the underground parking facility located
south of the William G. Stratton State Office Building in Springfield and the
parking ramp located at 401 South College Street located west of the William G.
Stratton State Office Building in Springfield, unless a non-State employee requests a space located in either garage, in which case the Secretary shall set the fee by rule. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, State
officers and employees who make application for and are allotted parking
places in such parking facilities shall
authorize the Comptroller
to deduct the required fees from their payroll checks under the State Salary
and Annuity
Withholding Act and the amounts so withheld shall be deposited as provided
in Section 8 of that Act. Until December 31, 2024, members and employees of the General Assembly who make application for and are allotted parking places in such parking facilities may, alternatively, upon application by the Secretary of the Senate or the Clerk of the House of Representatives, have their parking fee paid by the General Assembly. The amounts paid in this instance would also be deposited as provided in Section 8 of the State Salary and Annuity Withholding Act. The President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives may authorize payment of the fees from appropriations made to the General Assembly. Persons who are not subject to the State Salary
and Annuity Withholding Act and who are allotted parking places under this
Section shall pay the required fees directly to the Office of the Secretary
of State and the amounts so collected shall be deposited in the
State Parking Facility Maintenance Fund in the State Treasury.
(b) The Secretary of State may enter into agreements with public or private entities or individuals to lease to those entities or individuals parking spaces at State-owned Secretary of State facilities. Such agreements may be executed only upon a determination by the Secretary that leasing the parking spaces will not adversely impact the delivery of services to the public. The fee to be charged to the entity or individual leasing the parking spaces shall be established by rule. All funds collected by the Secretary pursuant to such leases shall be deposited in the State Parking Facility Maintenance Fund and shall be used for the maintenance and repair of parking lots at State-owned Secretary of State facilities.
