Sec. 21-5.
Forfeiture tax extension records; counties of 3,000,000 or
more. In counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, the county clerk shall
quadrennially or at regular intervals prescribed by county resolution under
Section 9-220 prepare a set of records to be known as the county clerk's
forfeiture tax extension records, showing in separate columns and items the
legal description of all property which has previously been forfeited for the
non-payment of general taxes, the amount of the forfeited taxes of prior years,
the interest added before forfeiture, the interest added after forfeiture, and
all printers' fees and costs chargeable against each property. The records
shall also show in proper spaces all annual new and additional amounts of
forfeited general taxes, interest added before forfeiture, interest added after
forfeiture, and all printers' fees and costs chargeable against the properties
which become so chargeable during the years following the general
assessment year. The records are to remain at all times at the county
clerk's office for use in preparing estimates of costs of redemption and in
issuing orders upon the county collector to receive amounts necessary for the
redemption of forfeited general taxes. Nothing in this section shall be
construed as abolishing or interfering in any way with the collector's tax
books, the tax judgment, sale, redemption and forfeiture records or any other
records or books provided for in this Code.
