10     Section 10. The Agricultural Fair Act is amended by
11 changing Section 10 as follows:
 
12     (30 ILCS 120/10)  (from Ch. 85, par. 660)
13     Sec. 10. (a) Effective with fiscal year 1987, each county
14 fair's authorized base shall be set at 66 2/3% of the approved
15 amount of premium paid in either of the 2 previous fiscal years
16 fiscal year 1984 or 1985, whichever year has the largest
17 approved amount. The authorized base of the Gallatin,
18 Montgomery and Massac county fairs for fiscal years 1987 and
19 1988 shall be $15,000 each. If there is a change in the
20 appropriation, the Director shall allocate to each fair the
21 same percentages of that appropriation as it received of the
22 authorized bases for all fairs.
23     (b) The Department shall reimburse each eligible county
24 fair as follows:

 

 

HB0543 - 23 - LRB096 04127 RCE 14168 b

1     100% of the first $2,000 of approved premiums awarded at
2 each eligible county fair;
3     85% of the next $2,000;
4     75% of the next $3,000;
5     65% of the next $3,000;
6     55% of the next $4,000; and
7     50% of the remaining premiums paid until the total
8 reimbursement equals the authorized base amount for each fair.
9     (c) If, after all approved state aid claims are paid for
10 the current year pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section,
11 any amount remains in the appropriations for state aid, that
12 remaining amount shall be distributed on a grant basis. If the
13 total amount of excess approved state aid claims over the
14 authorized base is equal to or less than the remaining amount
15 appropriated for state aid, then each participating fair shall
16 receive a grant equivalent to the excess of its approved claim
17 over its authorized base. If the total amount of excess
18 approved state aid claims exceeds the remaining monies
19 appropriated for state aid, the grants shall be distributed to
20 the participating fairs in proportion to the total amounts of
21 their respective excess approved claims. If, after all approved
22 claims are paid, any amount remains, that amount shall be
23 distributed to all county fairs eligible under this Section in
24 proportion to their total state aid claims. Fairs filing
25 approved claims exceeding both their authorized base and the

5 fair and approved by regulation of the Department. Each fair
6 shall file with the Department a fiscal accounting of the
7 expenditure of the grant monies received under this subsection
8 each year at the same time it files its report under Section 12
9 in relation to the fair held in the next succeeding year.
10     Effective with fiscal year 1989 and each odd numbered
11 fiscal year thereafter, the authorized base of all
12 participating county fairs shall be adjusted by applying 66
13 2/3% to the amount of approved premiums paid in the highest of
14 the previous 2 fiscal years.
