Sec. 21-35.
Estimated billing in overlapping districts.
In counties with
less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, when the certified assessed valuations for
that portion of overlapping taxing districts lying in another county for the
preceding year have not been received by the county clerk by March 1, the
county board, upon petition of the county clerk, may by resolution or ordinance
adopted on or prior to April 1 of that year, adopt the estimated property tax
billing system provided for in this Section for taxes for the preceding year.
The resolution or ordinance shall be effective only for the year in which it is
adopted.
When authorized by the county board to use the estimated property tax billing
system, the county clerk shall estimate the assessed valuations for the other
counties in the overlapping taxing districts from which certified assessed
valuations for the preceding year have not been received by March 1. The
estimated assessed valuations shall, for purposes of computing the first
installment tax billing in the current year, be treated in the same manner as
certified assessed valuations. Where estimated assessed valuations are used,
the first installment billing shall be prepared and mailed on or before May 1.
The county clerk shall make adjustments in the assessments, based on the
actual certified assessed valuations later received from the other counties,
and such adjustments shall be included in the tax billings for the second
installment. A county using the estimated billing system shall complete and
mail the adjusted second installment tax billing on or before August 1.
