Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

105 ILCS 5/17-2B

    (105 ILCS 5/17-2B) (from Ch. 122, par. 17-2B)
    Sec. 17-2B. Transfer from operations and maintenance fund to educational fund. In counties having a population in excess of 600,000 and less than 2,000,000 inhabitants, the school board of an elementary school district maintaining only grades kindergarten through 8 and having an enrollment of less than 800 students may, by proper resolution, cause a proposition to transfer moneys accumulated in its operations and maintenance fund to its educational fund to be submitted to the voters of the school district at a regular scheduled election held in accordance with Article 9 and the general election law of the State; provided, however, that no such resolution, referendum or transfer shall be adopted, held or approved pursuant to this Section unless at the time such resolution is adopted by the school board: (i) the school district has no bonded indebtedness outstanding, has in excess of $1,000,000 accumulated in its operations and maintenance fund and has in each of the 16 years preceding adoption of the resolution levied taxes for both educational purposes and for operations and maintenance purposes at the maximum rates from time to time permitted by law to be levied by such district; and (ii) the voters of the district have not at any time previously by referendum approved or refused to approve the transfer of any moneys from the operations and maintenance fund to the educational purposes fund.
    If a majority of the votes cast on the proposition at a referendum authorized by this Section is in favor of the proposition, the school board may thereafter transfer the moneys from the operations and maintenance fund to the educational fund as approved by the voters of the school district.
