Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(105 ILCS 5/9-11) (from Ch. 122, par. 9-11)

Sec. 9-11.

Tax rate increase - notice of election - ballot.

In addition to the notice requirements of the general election law,
whenever a proposition to increase a school tax rate is submitted to be
voted upon by the voters of any district the notice of such election shall
include an estimate of the approximate amount of taxes extendible under
the maximum rate then in force and an estimate of the approximate amount
of taxes extendible under the proposed increased rate, such amounts being
computed upon the last known full, fair cash value; provided that any error,
miscalculation or inaccuracy in computing such amounts shall not invalidate
or affect the validity of any rate so increased.  The board of directors
shall make such estimate and the secretary shall certify such amount to
the election authority as part of the certification of the proposition as
required by the general election law.  Such estimate shall appear on the
ballot on which the proposition is printed, but shall not appear as a part
of the proposition.
