CEMETERY CARE-DEFINE CARE-LIC                                              

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Cemetery Care Act.  Removes  from  the  definition  of      
   "care"  overhead  expense and maintenance of records of lot ownership,      
   transfers, and burials.  Provides that the definition of  "care"  does      
   not  include  the compensation of employees the preponderance of whose      
   duties do not involve the maintenance of the cemetery.  Provides  that      
   a  cemetery  authority  owning,  operating, controlling, or managing a      
   privately operated cemetery  shall  make  application  for  a  license      
   within  30  days  whenever  it  is  newly  organized and desires to be      
   licensed to accept care funds or whenever there is a sale or  transfer      
   of a controlling interest.                                                  
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                
          Deletes reference to:                                                
          760 ILCS 100/9                                                       
          Adds reference to:                                                   
          760 ILCS 100/15b                                                     
        Provides that, to the extent surplus income from the care fund is      
   available, the definition of "care" includes the payment  of  overhead      
   expenses  and  the maintenance of records of lot ownership, transfers,      
   and burials.  Removes the provision that excludes from the  definition      
   of  "care" compensation of employees the preponderance of whose duties      
   do not include the maintenance of the cemetery.  Removes the provision      
   that requires a cemetery authority to make application for  a  license      
   within  30 days.  Further amends the Cemetery Care Act.  In provisions      
   concerning a cemetery authority sale or transfer, provides that,  when      
   the Comptroller issues a new cemetery care license upon application of      
   the  newly  controlled corporation or partnership, the license must be      
   applied for within 30 days of the anticipated  date  of  the  sale  or      
   transfer.  Adds an immediate effective date.                                
          STATE MANDATES ACT FISCAL NOTE                                       
          SB 1244 fails to create a State mandate.                             
          FISCAL NOTE (Comptroller)                                            
          SB 1244 will not create any significant incremental costs to         
          the Office of the Comptroller.
