the county clerk shall extend a rate for the sum of these funds
that is no greater than the limiting rate.
    For those taxing districts that have never levied for any
funds included in the aggregate extension, the county clerk

under provisions of this Law. In calculating the limiting rate
for the library, the county clerk shall use only the part of

any rate increase or decrease factor under Section 18-230 the
county clerk shall use only any new rate or rate increase

applicable to the library in determining factors under that
Section. The county clerk shall calculate the limiting rate for
all other village funds using only the part of the aggregate
extension base not applicable to the library, and for any rate
increase or decrease factor under Section 18-230 the county
clerk shall use only any new rate or rate increase not

mental health funds and for the aggregate of the other county
or township funds in order to reduce the funds as may be
required under provisions of this Law. In calculating the
limiting rate for the community mental health funds, the county
clerk shall use only the part of the aggregate extension base

of this Law; and (ii) beginning with the levy year next
following the effective date of this amendatory Act of the
100th General Assembly, upon written direction of the board of
a governmental unit not covered under item (i) for care and
treatment of persons with a developmental disability, the
county clerk shall calculate separate limiting rates for the
funds for persons with a developmental disability and for the
aggregate of the other governmental unit funds in order to
reduce the funds as may be required under provisions of this
Law. If the governmental unit county is subject to Section 1.1
or 1.2 of the Community County Care for Persons with
Developmental Disabilities Act, then, beginning with the levy
year in which the voters approve the tax under Section 1.1 or
1.2 of that Act, the county clerk shall calculate separate
limiting rates for the funds for persons with a developmental
disability and for the aggregate of the other governmental unit
county or township funds in order to reduce the funds as may be

disability, the county clerk shall use only the part of the
aggregate extension base applicable to the funds for persons
with a developmental disability; and for any rate increase or
decrease factor under Section 18-230, the county clerk shall
use only any new rate or rate increase applicable to the funds
for persons with a developmental disability and the part of the

rate for all other governmental unit county or township funds
using only the part of the aggregate extension base not
applicable to funds for persons with a developmental
disability; and for any rate increase or decrease factor under
Section 18-230, the county clerk shall use only any new rate or
rate increase not applicable to the funds for persons with a
developmental disability and the part of the rate not
applicable to the board for care and treatment of persons with
a developmental disability in determining factors under that
Section. If the county clerk is required to reduce the
aggregate extension of the board for care and treatment of
persons with a developmental disability portion of the levy,
the county clerk shall proportionally reduce the extension for
each fund for persons with a developmental disability unless
otherwise directed by the board for care and treatment of
persons with a developmental disability. If the county clerk is
required to reduce the aggregate extension of the portion of
the levy not applicable to the board for care and treatment of
persons with a developmental disability, the county clerk shall
proportionally reduce the extension for each fund not
applicable to the board for care and treatment of persons with
a developmental disability unless otherwise directed by the
governmental unit county or township.
    As used in this Section, "governmental unit" has the
meaning given to that term in Section 0.05 of the Community
Care for Persons with Developmental Disabilities Act.

county highway taxes as aforesaid, and exclusive of pension
fund taxes, and except taxes levied to pay the annual rent
payments due under a lease entered into by the county with a

from the collection of the tax levied in the last preceding
even numbered year for county purposes as aforesaid, as shown
by the county treasurer's final settlement for the last
preceding even numbered year and also by subsequent receipts of
delinquent taxes for the county purposes fund levied for the
last preceding even numbered year, equals or exceeds the amount
produced by multiplying the rate extended for the county
purposes for the last preceding even numbered year by the total
assessed valuation of all property in the county used in the
year for purposes of state and county taxes, and by deducting
therefrom the amount appropriated to cover the loss and cost of
collecting taxes to be levied for the county purposes fund for
the last preceding even numbered year, the clerk in determining
the rate per cent to be extended for the county purposes fund
shall deduct from the amount of the levy certified to him for
county purposes as aforesaid for even numbered years the amount
received by the county clerk or withheld by the county
treasurer from other municipal corporations within the county
as their pro rata share of election expenses for the last
preceding even numbered year, as authorized in Sections 13-11,
13-12, 13-13 and 16-2 of the Election Code, and the clerk in
these counties shall extend only the net amount remaining after
such deductions.

are applicable to counties having less than 3,000,000
inhabitants, may be increased or decreased under the referendum
provisions of the General Revenue Law of Illinois and there
shall be no limit on the rate of tax for county purposes that
may be levied by a county so long as any increase in the rate is
authorized by referendum in that county.
    Any county having a population of less than 3,000,000
inhabitants that has determined to change its fiscal year may,
as a means of effectuating a change, instead of levying taxes
for a one-year period, levy taxes for a period greater or less
than a year as may be necessary.
    In counties having less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, in
ascertaining the rate per cent that will produce the amount of
any tax levied in that county, the County Clerk shall not add
to the tax or rate any sum or amount to cover the loss and cost
of collecting the tax except in the case of amounts levied for
the payment of bonded indebtedness or interest thereon and in
the case of amounts levied for pension fund purposes and except
taxes levied to pay the annual rent payments due under a lease
entered into by the county with a Public Building Commission as
authorized by Section 18 of the Public Building Commission Act.

result of a population increase indicated by the 1980 federal
census.
