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 200/10-30
(35 ILCS 200/10-30)
Sec. 10-30. Subdivisions; counties of less than 3,000,000.
(a) In counties with less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, the platting and
subdivision of property into separate lots and the development of the
subdivided property with streets, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, sewer, water and
utility lines shall not increase the assessed valuation of all or any part of
the property, if:
(1) The property is platted and subdivided in | | accordance with the Plat Act;
|
|
(2) The platting occurs after January 1, 1978;
(3) At the time of platting the property is in excess
| |
(4) At the time of platting the property is vacant or
| | used as a farm as defined in Section 1-60.
|
|
(b) Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, the assessed
valuation of property so platted and subdivided shall be determined each year
based on the estimated price the property would bring at a fair voluntary sale
for use by the buyer for the same purposes for which the property was used when
last assessed prior to its platting.
(c) Upon completion of a habitable structure on any lot of subdivided
property, or upon the use of any lot, either alone or in conjunction
with any contiguous property, for any business, commercial or residential
purpose, or upon the initial sale of any platted lot, including a platted
lot which is vacant: (i) the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section
shall no longer apply in determining the assessed valuation of the lot, (ii)
each lot shall be assessed without regard to any provision of this Section, and
(iii) the assessed valuation of the remaining property, when next determined,
shall be reduced proportionately to reflect the exclusion of the property that
no longer qualifies for valuation under this Section. Holding or offering a
platted lot for initial sale shall not constitute a use of the lot for
business, commercial or residential purposes unless a habitable structure is
situated on the lot or unless the lot is otherwise used for a business,
commercial or residential purpose.
(d) This Section applies before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly and then applies again beginning January 1, 2012.

35 ILCS 200/10-31 (35 ILCS 200/10-31)
Sec. 10-31. Subdivisions; counties of less than 3,000,000. (a) In counties with less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, the platting and
subdivision of property into separate lots and the development of the
subdivided property with streets, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, sewer, water and
utility lines shall not increase the assessed valuation of all or any part of
the property, if: (1) The property is platted and subdivided in | | accordance with the Plat Act;
|
| (2) The platting occurs after January 1, 1978;
(3) At the time of platting the property is in excess
| | (4) At the time of platting or replatting the
| | property is vacant or used as a farm as defined in Section 1-60.
|
| (b) Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, the assessed
valuation of property so platted and subdivided shall be determined
based on the assessed value assigned to the property when last assessed prior to its last transfer or conveyance. An initial sale of any platted lot, including a lot that is vacant, or a transfer to a holder of a mortgage, as defined in Section 15-1207 of the Code of Civil Procedure, pursuant to a mortgage foreclosure proceeding or pursuant to a transfer in lieu of foreclosure, does not disqualify that lot from the provisions of this subsection (b).
(c) Upon completion of a habitable structure on any lot of subdivided
property, or upon the use of any lot, either alone or in conjunction
with any contiguous property, for any business, commercial or residential
purpose: (i) the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section
shall no longer apply in determining the assessed valuation of the lot, (ii)
each lot shall be assessed without regard to any provision of this Section, and
(iii) the assessed valuation of the remaining property, when next determined,
shall be reduced proportionately to reflect the exclusion of the property that
no longer qualifies for valuation under this Section. Holding or offering a
platted lot for initial sale shall not constitute a use of the lot for
business, commercial or residential purposes unless a habitable structure is
situated on the lot or unless the lot is otherwise used for a business,
commercial or residential purpose. The replatting of a subdivision or portion of a subdivision does not disqualify the replatted lots from the provisions of subsection (b).
(d) This Section applies on and after the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly and through December 31, 2011.

35 ILCS 200/10-35
(35 ILCS 200/10-35)
Sec. 10-35. Subdivision common areas.
(a) Residential property which is part of a development,
but which is individually owned and ownership of which includes the right,
by easement, covenant, deed or other interest in property, to the use
of any common area for recreational or similar residential purposes shall
be assessed at a value which includes the proportional share of the value
of that common area or areas.
Property is used as a "common area or areas" under this Section if
it is a lot, parcel, or area, the beneficial use and enjoyment of which
is reserved in whole as an appurtenance to the separately owned lots, parcels,
or areas within the planned development.
The common area or areas which are used for recreational or similar
residential purposes and which are assessed to a separate owner and are located
on separately identified parcels, shall be listed for assessment purposes at $1
per year.
(b) In counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, any person desiring to
establish or to reestablish an assessment of $1 for any parcel on the grounds of
common area status under this Section shall submit an application for the
assessment to the assessor. The application shall be submitted at the time
within which other applications for revisions of assessment may be made under
Section 14-35 by taxpayers in the township where the parcel is located, and
shall be in the form and accompanied by documentation, as the assessor may
require.
(b-5) In counties with fewer than 3,000,000 inhabitants, the chief county assessment officer may require any person desiring to establish or reestablish an assessment of $1 for any parcel on the grounds of common area status under this Section to submit an application for the assessment to the chief county assessment officer. The application shall be submitted no later than June 30 of the year for which the assessment is sought and shall be in the form and accompanied by documentation that the chief county assessment officer requires. (c) If a $1 assessment is established pursuant to the application it may be
maintained from year to year so long as the ownership or use of the parcel has
not changed. When any change in ownership, use or other relevant fact occurs it
shall be the duty of the new owner in cases of change in ownership, or of the
current owner in all other cases, to notify the assessor in writing within 30
days of the change. The notice shall be sent by certified mail, return receipt
requested, and shall include the name and address of the taxpayer, the legal
description of the property, and the permanent index number of the property
where such number exists. If the failure to give such notification results in
the assessor continuing to assess the property at $1 in subsequent years in
error, the property shall be considered omitted property under Section 9-265.
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to limit the assessor's authority to
annually revise assessments subject to this Section under the procedures of
Section 9-85.
(d) No objection shall be made to the denial of an assessment of $1 under
this Section in any court except under Sections 21-175 and 23-5. No person may
object to or otherwise challenge the failure of any parcel to receive an
assessment of $1 under this Section in any proceeding in any court unless an
application for the $1 assessment was made under subsections (b) and (b-5) of this
Section.
