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.

Sec. 5-7001.
Tax for maintaining public nonsectarian
hospitals. Each county board, subject to the
provisions of Section 5-7002, has power to levy a tax of not to
exceed .25%, or the rate limit in effect on July 1, 1967, whichever is
greater, of the value, as equalized or assessed by the
Department of Revenue, annually on all taxable property of
the county, for the purpose of maintaining public nonsectarian hospitals
located in the county. Such tax shall be levied and collected in like
manner as the general taxes of the county, and shall, when collected, be
paid into the "Hospital Fund", which fund is hereby created. Such tax shall
be in addition to all other taxes which the county is now, or hereafter may
be, authorized to levy on the aggregate valuation of the property within
the county and shall not be included in any tax limitation of rate upon
which taxes are required to be extended but shall be excluded therefrom and
in addition thereto. The foregoing limitations upon tax rates, insofar as
they are applicable to counties of less than 1,000,000 population, may be
increased or decreased under the referendum provisions of the General
Revenue Law of Illinois.
For the purposes of this Division the words, "public nonsectarian
hospital", shall be construed to include community hospitals operated on a
non-profit basis, which are required by the terms of any contract to
receive and care for acutely ill patients up to 25 per cent of the service
rendered by such hospital expressed in terms of patient-days, regardless of
whether the hospital receives compensation from such patients for the
services rendered.

Election for tax levy.
When a county board passes a
resolution asking that an annual tax may be levied for the purpose of
maintaining public nonsectarian hospitals in the county, and so instructs
the county clerk, the county board shall certify the resolution and the
proposition to the proper election officials, who shall submit the
proposition at an election in accordance with the general election law. The
proposition shall be in substantially the following form:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Shall.... County levy an annual tax of not to exceed YES .25 per cent for the purpose - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

If a majority of all the votes cast upon the proposition are for the
levy of such tax, the county board may thereafter annually levy such
tax, and thereafter the county board shall, in the annual appropriation
bill, appropriate from such fund such sum or sums of money as may be
deemed necessary to defray necessary expenses and liabilities of such
hospitals.

Discontinuance of tax.
When 100 legal voters of any
county which has adopted the provisions of this Division presents a
petition to the county clerk, requesting that the levying of a tax annually
in such county for the purpose of maintaining public nonsectarian hospitals
be discontinued, the county clerk shall certify the proposition to any
board of election commissioners in the county and he and they shall submit
the proposition at an election in accordance with the general election law.
The proposition shall be substantially in the following form:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

If a majority of all the votes cast upon the proposition are for the
discontinuance of the levying of such tax, the county board shall not
thereafter levy such tax unless a proposition authorizing such levy
again receives a majority of all the votes cast upon the proposition as
prescribed by Section 5-7002.
