(605 ILCS 5/6-506) (from Ch. 121, par. 6-506)
Sec. 6-506.
The county clerk on and after the filing with him of the
certificate provided for in Section 6-505 by the district clerk shall
for a period of 5 years thereafter extend as taxes the amount certified
by the county board, township board of trustees
or highway board of trustees, as the case may be, which the highway
commissioner
has determined as necessary to be raised by taxation for the proper
construction,
maintenance and repair of the roads of the district as provided in
Section 6-501 at a rate not in excess of the rate approved by the voters
of the district under Sections 6-504 and 6-505 and in no case shall such
taxes so extended exceed .66% of the value, or .94% of the value in
districts with less than $10,000,000 total equalized assessed valuation if
such higher rate has been approved by the voters of the district under
Sections 6-504 and 6-505 at a referendum held in accordance with the
general election law, as
such values are equalized or assessed by
the Department of Revenue of the taxable property of
the district.
If any road district establishes its tax rate limitation for road
purposes on a permanent basis after August 1, 1967, as provided for in
Section 6-504 of the Act, the county clerk shall on a permanent basis
extend as taxes the amount certified by the county board, township board
of trustees or highway
board of trustees, as the case may be, which the highway commissioner
has determined as necessary to be raised by taxation for
the proper construction, maintenance and repair of the roads of the
district.
