Illinois Compiled Statutes
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.

(35 ILCS 200/10-90)
Sec. 10-90.
Property used for airport purposes.
In counties with 200,000
or more inhabitants, in addition to valuation as otherwise permitted by law,
upon the filing of an application under Section 10-95 by the person liable for
the taxes on that property, which is used for airport purposes and has been so
used for the 3 years immediately preceding the year when the assessment is made
shall be valued on the basis of 33 1/3% of its fair cash value, based upon the
price it would bring at a fair, voluntary sale for use by the buyer for airport
purposes.
Property is considered used for airport purposes under this Section if
it is devoted primarily to the operation of an airport or restricted landing
field approved by the Department of Transportation in accordance with the
Illinois Aeronautics Act and is open to the public except as restricted by the
Department of Transportation or the Illinois Aeronautics Act.

(35 ILCS 200/10-95)
Sec. 10-95.
Application process.
The person liable for taxes on land used
for airport purposes must file a verified application requesting the additional
valuation provided for in Section 10-90, with the chief county assessment
officer of the county where the land is located, by January 1 of each year for
which that valuation is desired. The application shall be in the form
prescribed by the Department and contain such information as may reasonably be
required to determine whether the applicant meets the requirements of Section
10-90. If the application shows the applicant is entitled to the valuation, the
chief county assessment officer shall approve it; otherwise, he or she shall
reject the application.
When an application has been filed with and approved by the chief county
assessment officer, he or she shall determine the valuation of the land in two
ways as otherwise permitted by law, and as described in Section 10-90, and
shall list those valuations separately. The county clerk, in preparing
assessment books, lists and blanks under Section 9-100, shall include columns
for indicating the approval of an application filed under this Section and for
setting out the valuations made as otherwise permitted by law, and under
Section 10-90.

Sec. 10-100.
Liability for prior year's taxes.
The valuation determined
under Section 10-90 shall be used for each year for which application is made
and approved under Section 10-95. When any portion of the land is no longer
used for airport purposes, the person liable for taxes on that portion of the
land shall notify the chief county assessment officer, in writing, of that
fact, and shall pay to the county treasurer, by the following September 1, the
difference between the taxes paid in each of the 3 preceding years as based on
a valuation under Section 10-90 and what those taxes for each of those years
would have been when based on the valuation as otherwise permitted by law,
together with 5% interest. If this difference is not paid by the following
September 1, the amount of that difference shall be considered as delinquent
taxes under this Code.

(35 ILCS 200/10-105)
Sec. 10-105.
Interstate bridges.
All bridge structures across any navigable
streams forming the boundary line between the State of Illinois and any other
State, and not classified as operating property by any railroad operating in
this State, shall be assessed by the township or other assessor in the county
or township where the structure is located. All provisions relating to the
assessment and taxation of property, shall apply to those bridges. The assessor
shall give in his or her description the quarter section of property, section
of property, township and range in which the bridge is located or terminates in
this State, together with the metes and bounds of the ground occupied by the
bridge and the approaches to it, from the end on the Illinois shore to the
center of the main channel of the stream crossed by the bridge. To obtain the
description, the assessor may employ a competent surveyor, and the expense of
making the survey and description shall be charged as a tax against the
property by the county clerk, on the certificate of the surveyor. One survey of
any bridge and approaches made under this Code, shall be deemed sufficient for
the purpose of subsequent assessment of the bridge or approaches.
In default of the payment of any tax assessed against any bridge company, the
bridge structure and its approaches that are located within this State,
together with the land on which they are located, as described by the assessor,
and the franchise belonging thereto, shall be sold for the tax at the same time
and in the same manner as other property in the county is sold for delinquent
tax. Any county, city, town, school district or other municipal corporation,
interested in the collection of the tax levied upon the bridge, may become the
purchaser at the sale, or at any sale of the property under judgment recovered
upon, or to enforce the collection of the tax; and if the property so sold is
not redeemed, may acquire, hold, sell and dispose of the title.
