Illinois Compiled Statutes

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.

35 ILCS 200/18-215

    (35 ILCS 200/18-215)
    Sec. 18-215. Merging and consolidating taxing districts; transfer of service. For purposes of this Law, when 2 or more taxing districts merge or consolidate, the sum of the last preceding aggregate extensions for each taxing district shall be combined for the resulting merged or consolidated taxing district. When a service performed by one taxing district is transferred to another taxing district, that part of the aggregate extension base for that purpose shall be transferred and added to the aggregate extension base of the transferee taxing district for purposes of this Law and shall be deducted from the aggregate extension base of the transferor taxing district. If the service and corresponding portion of the aggregate extension base transferred to the taxing district are for a service that the transferee district does not currently levy for, the provisions of Section 18-190 of this Law requiring a referendum to establish a new levy shall not apply.

35 ILCS 200/18-220

    (35 ILCS 200/18-220)
    Sec. 18-220. (Repealed).
(Source: Repealed by P.A. 89-1, eff. 2-12-95.)

35 ILCS 200/18-225

    (35 ILCS 200/18-225)
    Sec. 18-225. Annexed or disconnected property. If property is annexed into the taxing district or is disconnected from a taxing district during the current levy year, the calculation of the limiting rate under Section 18-185 is not affected. The rates as limited under this Law are applied to all property in the district for the current levy year, excluding property that was annexed after the adoption of the levy for the current levy year.
(Source: P.A. 88-455; 89-1, eff. 2-12-95.)

35 ILCS 200/18-230

    (35 ILCS 200/18-230)
    Sec. 18-230. Rate increase or decrease factor. Only when a new rate or a rate increase or decrease has been approved by referendum held prior to March 22, 2006, the aggregate extension base, as adjusted in Section 18-215, shall be multiplied by a rate increase (or decrease) factor. The numerator of the rate increase (or decrease) factor is the total combined rate for the funds that made up the aggregate extension for the taxing district for the prior year plus the rate increase approved or minus the rate decrease approved. The denominator of the rate increase or decrease factor is the total combined rate for the funds that made up the aggregate extension for the prior year. For those taxing districts for which a new rate or a rate increase has been approved by referendum held after December 31, 1988 and prior to March 22, 2006, and that did not increase their rate to the new maximum rate for that fund, the rate increase factor shall be adjusted for 4 levy years after the year of the referendum (unless the governing body of a taxing district to which this Law applied before the 1995 levy year that approved a tax rate increase at a general election held after 2002 directs the county clerk or clerks by resolution to make such adjustment for a lesser number of years) by a factor the numerator of which is the portion of the new or increased rate for which taxes were not extended plus the aggregate rate in effect for the levy year prior to the levy year in which the referendum was passed and the denominator of which is the aggregate rate in effect for the levy year prior to the levy year in which the referendum was passed.

35 ILCS 200/18-233

    (35 ILCS 200/18-233)
    Sec. 18-233. Adjustments for certificates of error, certain court orders, or final administrative decisions of the Property Tax Appeal Board. Beginning in levy year 2021, a taxing district levy shall be increased by a prior year adjustment whenever an assessment decrease due to the issuance of a certificate of error, a court order issued pursuant to an assessment valuation complaint under Section 23-15, or a final administrative decision of the Property Tax Appeal Board results in a refund from the taxing district of a portion of the property tax revenue distributed to the taxing district. On or before November 15 of each year, the county treasurer shall certify the aggregate refunds paid by a taxing district during such 12-month period for purposes of this Section. For purposes of the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law, the taxing district's most recent aggregate extension base shall not include the prior year adjustment authorized under this Section.
