Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
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.

110 ILCS 73/15

    (110 ILCS 73/15)
    Sec. 15. Accountability and review of proposed certificate issuance. Before issuance of any certificate of participation, a State University shall appear before the Commission and present the details of the proposal. This presentation shall include such information as the Commission may request in relation to the proposed certificate of participation issuance. This information shall include, but is not limited to, the amount being financed, the nature of the project being financed, the proposed funding stream to pay for the certificate issuance, the current outstanding indebtedness of the State University, and the status of all currently issued certificates of participation.
    Upon receipt of a request by a State University for a certificate of participation presentation, the Commission shall hold a public hearing and, upon adoption by a vote of the majority of appointed members, issue a record of findings in regards to the issuance of the certificate within 60 days after the request.
    As part of the Commission's considerations and findings, the Commission shall consider the effect the issuance of a certificate of participation shall have on the State University's annual debt service and overall fiscal condition.
    Within the Commission's findings shall be a statement in which the Commission makes a recommendation to the State University as to proceeding with the certificate issuance. The recommendation shall be either (i) "favorably recommended", (ii) "recommended with concerns", or (iii) "non-support of issuance".
    The Commission shall report the findings within 15 days after the hearing to all of the following:
        (1) The Speaker of the House of Representatives.
        (2) The Minority Leader of the House of
    
Representatives.
        (3) The President of the Senate.
        (4) The Minority Leader of the Senate.
        (5) The Governor's Office of Management and Budget.
        (6) The President of the State University that had
    
requested the certificate presentation.
    Upon a finding of "non-support of issuance", a State University may not proceed with the issuance of the certificate involved in the finding without the approval of the General Assembly through the adoption of a joint resolution.
