 1        AN ACT to revise the law by combining multiple enactments
 2    and making technical corrections.

 3        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 4    represented in the General Assembly:

 5        Section 1.  Nature of this Act.
 6        (a)  This Act may be cited  as  the  First  2002  General
 7    Revisory Act.
 8        (b)  This  Act  is  not  intended to make any substantive
 9    change in the law.  It reconciles conflicts that have  arisen
10    from  multiple  amendments and enactments and makes technical
11    corrections and revisions in the law.
12        This  Act  revises  and,  where  appropriate,   renumbers
13    certain Sections that have been added or amended by more than
14    one  Public Act.  In certain cases in which a repealed Act or
15    Section has been replaced with  a  successor  law,  this  Act
16    incorporates  amendments  to the repealed Act or Section into
17    the successor law.  This Act also  corrects  errors,  revises
18    cross-references, and deletes obsolete text.
19        (c)  In  this  Act,  the  reference  at  the  end of each
20    amended Section indicates the sources in the Session Laws  of
21    Illinois  that  were  used  in the preparation of the text of
22    that Section.  The text of the Section included in  this  Act
23    is  intended  to  reconcile  the  different  versions  of the
24    Section found in the Public Acts  included  in  the  list  of
25    sources, but may not include other versions of the Section to
26    be  found in Public Acts not included in the list of sources.
27    The list of sources is not a part of the text of the Section.
28        (d)  Public Acts 91-937 through 92-520 were considered in
29    the preparation of the combining revisories included in  this
30    Act.   Many of those combining revisories contain no striking
31    or underscoring because no additional changes are being  made
32    in the material that is being combined.

23    For the purpose of this subsection, "relative" shall  include
24    any  person,  21 years of age or over, other than the parent,
25    who (i) is currently related to  the  child  in  any  of  the
26    following  ways  by  blood or adoption: grandparent, sibling,

 1    with  whom a child is placed pursuant to this subsection may,
 2    but is not required to,  apply  for  licensure  as  a  foster
 3    family home pursuant to the Child Care Act of 1969; provided,
 4    however,  that as of July 1, 1995, foster care payments shall
 5    be made only to licensed foster family homes pursuant to  the
 6    terms of Section 5 of this Act.
 7        (c)  In  placing  a  child under this Act, the Department
 8    shall ensure  that  the  child's  health,  safety,  and  best
 9    interests  are  met in making a family foster care placement.
10    The Department shall consider the  individual  needs  of  the
11    child  and the capacity of the prospective foster or adoptive
12    parents to meet the needs of the child. When a child must  be
13    placed  outside  his  or  her  home and cannot be immediately
14    returned to his or her parents or guardian, a  comprehensive,
15    individualized assessment shall be performed of that child at
16    which  time the needs of the child shall be determined.  Only
17    if race,  color,  or  national  origin  is  identified  as  a
18    legitimate  factor  in  advancing  the child's best interests
19    shall it be considered.   Race,  color,  or  national  origin
20    shall  not  be  routinely  considered  in  making a placement
21    decision.  The Department shall make special efforts for  the
22    diligent   recruitment   of  potential  foster  and  adoptive
23    families that reflect the ethnic and racial diversity of  the
24    children  for  whom  foster  and  adoptive  homes are needed.
25    "Special efforts" shall include contacting and  working  with
26    community  organizations  and religious organizations and may
27    include contracting with those organizations, utilizing local
28    media and other  local  resources,  and  conducting  outreach
29    activities.
30        (c-1)  At  the  time  of  placement, the Department shall
31    consider concurrent  planning,  as  described  in  subsection
32    (l-1)  of  Section  5,  so  that  permanency may occur at the
33    earliest opportunity.  Consideration should be given so  that
34    if  reunification  fails or is delayed, the placement made is
 
                            -40-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1    the best available placement to provide  permanency  for  the
 2    child.
 3        (d)  The  Department  may accept gifts, grants, offers of
 4    services, and other contributions to use  in  making  special
 5    recruitment efforts.
 6        (e)  The  Department  in  placing children in adoptive or
 7    foster care homes may not, in any policy or practice relating
 8    to the placement of children for  adoption  or  foster  care,
 9    discriminate  against  any  child  or prospective adoptive or
10    foster parent on the basis of race.

 4    labor  surplus,  the  Authority  shall  consider,   (1)   the
 5    financial  responsibility  of  the  prospective applicant and
 6    user, and (2) the relationship between the amount of funds to
 7    be provided by exercise of powers of the  Authority  and  the
 8    degree  to  which the project (A) will contribute to creation
 9    or retention  of  employment,  including  employment  in  the
10    construction  industry,  (B)  will contribute to the economic
11    development of the area in which the  industrial  project  is

 7    and renumbering multiple versions of Section 507V as follows:

 8        (35 ILCS 5/201) (from Ch. 120, par. 2-201)
 9        Sec. 201.  Tax Imposed.
10        (a)  In  general.  A tax measured by net income is hereby
11    imposed on every individual, corporation,  trust  and  estate
12    for  each  taxable  year  ending  after  July 31, 1969 on the
13    privilege of earning or receiving income in or as a  resident
14    of  this  State.  Such  tax shall be in addition to all other
15    occupation or privilege taxes imposed by this State or by any

17        (b)  Rates.  The tax imposed by subsection  (a)  of  this
18    Section shall be determined as follows, except as adjusted by

21        for taxable years ending prior to July 1, 1989, an amount
22        equal to 2 1/2% of the  taxpayer's  net  income  for  the
23        taxable year.
24             (2)  In  the case of an individual, trust or estate,
25        for taxable years beginning prior to  July  1,  1989  and
26        ending after June 30, 1989, an amount equal to the sum of
27        (i)  2  1/2%  of the taxpayer's net income for the period
28        prior to July 1, 1989, as calculated under Section 202.3,
29        and (ii) 3% of the taxpayer's net income for  the  period
30        after June 30, 1989, as calculated under Section 202.3.
31             (3)  In  the case of an individual, trust or estate,
32        for taxable years  beginning  after  June  30,  1989,  an
 
                            -69-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1        amount  equal  to 3% of the taxpayer's net income for the
 2        taxable year.
 3             (4)  (Blank).
 4             (5)  (Blank).
 5             (6)  In the case of a corporation, for taxable years
 6        ending prior to July 1, 1989, an amount equal  to  4%  of
 7        the taxpayer's net income for the taxable year.
 8             (7)  In the case of a corporation, for taxable years
 9        beginning prior to July 1, 1989 and ending after June 30,
10        1989,  an  amount  equal  to  the  sum  of  (i) 4% of the
11        taxpayer's net income for the period  prior  to  July  1,
12        1989, as calculated under Section 202.3, and (ii) 4.8% of
13        the  taxpayer's  net income for the period after June 30,
14        1989, as calculated under Section 202.3.
15             (8)  In the case of a corporation, for taxable years
16        beginning after June 30, 1989, an amount equal to 4.8% of
17        the taxpayer's net income for the taxable year.
18        (c)  Personal  Property  Tax  Replacement   Income   Tax.
19    Beginning on July 1, 1979 and thereafter, in addition to such
20    income  tax,  there  is  also  hereby  imposed  the  Personal
21    Property Tax Replacement Income Tax measured by net income on
22    every  corporation  (including  Subchapter  S  corporations),
23    partnership  and  trust,  for  each taxable year ending after
24    June 30, 1979.  Such taxes are imposed on  the  privilege  of
25    earning  or  receiving  income  in  or  as a resident of this
26    State.  The Personal  Property  Tax  Replacement  Income  Tax
27    shall be in addition to the income tax imposed by subsections
28    (a)  and  (b)  of  this  Section and in addition to all other
29    occupation or privilege taxes imposed by this State or by any
30    municipal corporation or political subdivision thereof.
31        (d)  Additional Personal Property Tax Replacement  Income
32    Tax  Rates.  The personal property tax replacement income tax
33    imposed by this subsection and subsection (c) of this Section
34    in the case of a  corporation,  other  than  a  Subchapter  S
 
                            -70-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1    corporation and except as adjusted by subsection (d-1), shall
 2    be an additional amount equal to 2.85% of such taxpayer's net
 3    income for the taxable year, except that beginning on January
 4    1,  1981, and thereafter, the rate of 2.85% specified in this
 5    subsection shall be reduced to 2.5%, and in  the  case  of  a
 6    partnership,  trust or a Subchapter S corporation shall be an
 7    additional amount equal to 1.5% of such taxpayer's net income
 8    for the taxable year.
 9        (d-1)  Rate reduction for certain foreign  insurers.   In
10    the case of a foreign insurer, as defined by Section 35A-5 of
11    the  Illinois  Insurance  Code,  whose  state  or  country of
12    domicile  imposes  on  insurers  domiciled  in   Illinois   a
13    retaliatory  tax  (excluding  any insurer whose premiums from
14    reinsurance assumed are 50% or more of  its  total  insurance
15    premiums  as determined under paragraph (2) of subsection (b)
16    of  Section  304,  except   that   for   purposes   of   this
17    determination   premiums  from  reinsurance  do  not  include
18    premiums  from  inter-affiliate  reinsurance   arrangements),
19    beginning  with taxable years ending on or after December 31,
20    1999, the sum of the rates of tax imposed by subsections  (b)
21    and  (d)  shall be reduced (but not increased) to the rate at
22    which the total amount of tax imposed under this Act, net  of
23    all credits allowed under this Act, shall equal (i) the total
24    amount  of tax that would be imposed on the foreign insurer's
25    net income allocable to Illinois for the taxable year by such
26    foreign insurer's state or country of domicile  if  that  net
27    income were subject to all income taxes and taxes measured by
28    net income imposed by such foreign insurer's state or country
29    of  domicile,  net  of  all credits allowed or (ii) a rate of
30    zero if no such tax is imposed on such income by the  foreign
31    insurer's  state  of  domicile.  For  the  purposes  of  this
32    subsection   (d-1),  an  inter-affiliate  includes  a  mutual
33    insurer under common management.
34             (1)  For the purposes of  subsection  (d-1),  in  no
 
                            -71-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1        event  shall  the  sum  of  the  rates  of tax imposed by
 2        subsections (b) and (d) be  reduced  below  the  rate  at
 3        which the sum of:
 4                  (A)  the  total  amount  of tax imposed on such
 5             foreign insurer under this Act for a  taxable  year,
 6             net of all credits allowed under this Act, plus
 7                  (B)  the  privilege  tax imposed by Section 409
 8             of the Illinois Insurance Code, the  fire  insurance
 9             company  tax  imposed  by  Section  12  of  the Fire
10             Investigation Act, and  the  fire  department  taxes
11             imposed   under  Section  11-10-1  of  the  Illinois
12             Municipal Code,
13        equals 1.25% of the net taxable premiums written for  the
14        taxable  year,  as described by subsection (1) of Section
15        409 of the Illinois Insurance Code. This  paragraph  will
16        in  no event increase the rates imposed under subsections
17        (b) and (d).
18             (2)  Any reduction in the rates of  tax  imposed  by
19        this  subsection shall be applied first against the rates
20        imposed by subsection (b) and only after the tax  imposed
21        by  subsection  (a) net of all credits allowed under this
22        Section other than the credit  allowed  under  subsection
23        (i)  has  been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed
24        by subsection (d).
25        This subsection (d-1) is exempt from  the  provisions  of
26    Section 250.
27        (e)  Investment  credit.   A  taxpayer shall be allowed a
28    credit against the Personal Property Tax  Replacement  Income
29    Tax for investment in qualified property.
30             (1)  A  taxpayer  shall be allowed a credit equal to
31        .5% of the basis of qualified property placed in  service
32        during the taxable year, provided such property is placed
33        in  service  on  or  after  July 1, 1984.  There shall be
34        allowed an additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of
 
                            -72-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1        qualified property placed in service during  the  taxable
 2        year,  provided  such property is placed in service on or
 3        after July 1, 1986, and the  taxpayer's  base  employment
 4        within  Illinois  has  increased  by  1% or more over the
 5        preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's employment
 6        records filed with the Illinois Department of  Employment
 7        Security.   Taxpayers  who  are  new to Illinois shall be
 8        deemed to have met the 1% growth in base  employment  for
 9        the first year in which they file employment records with
10        the  Illinois  Department  of  Employment  Security.  The
11        provisions added to this Section by  Public  Act  85-1200
12        (and restored by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as
13        declaratory  of  existing law and not as a new enactment.
14        If, in any year, the increase in base  employment  within
15        Illinois  over  the  preceding  year is less than 1%, the
16        additional credit shall be  limited  to  that  percentage
17        times  a  fraction, the numerator of which is .5% and the
18        denominator of which is 1%, but  shall  not  exceed  .5%.
19        The  investment credit shall not be allowed to the extent
20        that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability  in  any  tax
21        year  below  zero,  nor  may  any  credit  for  qualified
22        property  be  allowed for any year other than the year in
23        which the property was placed in service in Illinois. For
24        tax years ending on or after December 31, 1987, and on or
25        before December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for
26        the tax year in which the property is placed in  service,
27        or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability
28        for  that year, whether it exceeds the original liability
29        or the liability as later amended,  such  excess  may  be
30        carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5
31        taxable  years  following  the excess credit years if the
32        taxpayer (i) makes investments which cause  the  creation
33        of  a  minimum  of  2,000  full-time  equivalent  jobs in
34        Illinois,  (ii)  is  located  in   an   enterprise   zone
 
                            -73-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1        established  pursuant to the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act
 2        and (iii) is certified by the Department of Commerce  and
 3        Community  Affairs  as  complying  with  the requirements
 4        specified in clause (i) and (ii) by July  1,  1986.   The
 5        Department of Commerce and Community Affairs shall notify
 6        the  Department  of  Revenue  of  all such certifications
 7        immediately. For tax  years  ending  after  December  31,
 8        1988,  the  credit  shall  be allowed for the tax year in
 9        which the property is  placed  in  service,  or,  if  the
10        amount  of  the credit exceeds the tax liability for that
11        year, whether it exceeds the original  liability  or  the
12        liability  as  later  amended, such excess may be carried
13        forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable
14        years following the excess credit years. The credit shall
15        be applied to the earliest year  for  which  there  is  a
16        liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year
17        that  is  available to offset a liability, earlier credit
18        shall be applied first.
19             (2)  The term "qualified  property"  means  property
20        which:
21                  (A)  is   tangible,   whether   new   or  used,
22             including buildings  and  structural  components  of
23             buildings  and signs that are real property, but not
24             including land or improvements to real property that
25             are not a structural component of a building such as
26             landscaping,  sewer  lines,  local   access   roads,
27             fencing, parking lots, and other appurtenances;
28                  (B)  is  depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of
29             the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  except  that  "3-year
30             property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that
31             Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this
32             subsection (e);
33                  (C)  is acquired  by  purchase  as  defined  in
34             Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
 
                            -74-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1                  (D)  is  used  in Illinois by a taxpayer who is
 2             primarily engaged in  manufacturing,  or  in  mining
 3             coal or fluorite, or in retailing; and
 4                  (E)  has  not  previously been used in Illinois
 5             in such a manner and  by  such  a  person  as  would
 6             qualify  for  the credit provided by this subsection
 7             (e) or subsection (f).
 8             (3)  For   purposes   of   this   subsection    (e),
 9        "manufacturing" means the material staging and production
10        of  tangible  personal  property  by  procedures commonly
11        regarded as manufacturing,  processing,  fabrication,  or
12        assembling  which changes some existing material into new
13        shapes, new qualities, or new combinations.  For purposes
14        of this subsection (e) the term "mining" shall  have  the
15        same  meaning  as  the term "mining" in Section 613(c) of
16        the  Internal  Revenue  Code.   For  purposes   of   this
17        subsection  (e),  the  term "retailing" means the sale of
18        tangible  personal  property  or  services  rendered   in
19        conjunction  with  the sale of tangible consumer goods or
20        commodities.
21             (4)  The basis of qualified property  shall  be  the
22        basis  used  to  compute  the  depreciation deduction for
23        federal income tax purposes.
24             (5)  If the basis of the property for federal income
25        tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has  been
26        placed in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount
27        of  such  increase  shall  be  deemed  property placed in
28        service on the date of such increase in basis.
29             (6)  The term "placed in  service"  shall  have  the
30        same  meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue
31        Code.
32             (7)  If during any taxable year, any property ceases
33        to be qualified property in the  hands  of  the  taxpayer
34        within  48  months  after being placed in service, or the
 
                            -75-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1        situs of any qualified property is moved outside Illinois
 2        within 48 months  after  being  placed  in  service,  the
 3        Personal  Property  Tax  Replacement  Income Tax for such
 4        taxable year shall be increased.  Such increase shall  be
 5        determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit which
 6        would  have been allowed for the year in which credit for
 7        such property was originally allowed by eliminating  such
 8        property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such
 9        recomputed  credit  from  the amount of credit previously
10        allowed. For  the  purposes  of  this  paragraph  (7),  a
11        reduction  of  the  basis of qualified property resulting
12        from a redetermination of the  purchase  price  shall  be
13        deemed  a disposition of qualified property to the extent
14        of such reduction.
15             (8)  Unless the investment  credit  is  extended  by
16        law,  the  basis  of qualified property shall not include
17        costs incurred after December 31, 2003, except for  costs
18        incurred  pursuant  to a binding contract entered into on
19        or before December 31, 2003.
20             (9)  Each taxable year ending  before  December  31,
21        2000,  a  partnership  may  elect  to pass through to its
22        partners the credits to which the partnership is entitled
23        under this  subsection  (e)  for  the  taxable  year.   A

25        this  paragraph  only  against   the   tax   imposed   in
26        subsections   (c)  and  (d)  of  this  Section.   If  the
27        partnership makes that election, those credits  shall  be
28        allocated  among  the  partners  in  the  partnership  in
29        accordance  with the rules set forth in Section 704(b) of
30        the Internal Revenue  Code,  and  the  rules  promulgated

 9        of Section 203 shall  be  allowed  a  credit  under  this
10        subsection  (e)  equal  to its share of the credit earned
11        under this subsection (e) during the taxable year by  the
12        partnership  or  Subchapter  S corporation, determined in
13        accordance  with  the   determination   of   income   and
14        distributive  share  of income under Sections 702 and 704
15        and Subchapter S of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code.   This
16        paragraph is exempt from the provisions of Section 250.
17          (f)  Investment credit; Enterprise Zone.
18             (1)  A  taxpayer  shall  be allowed a credit against
19        the tax imposed  by  subsections  (a)  and  (b)  of  this
20        Section  for  investment  in  qualified property which is
21        placed in service in an Enterprise Zone created  pursuant
22        to  the  Illinois  Enterprise  Zone  Act.   For partners,
23        shareholders of Subchapter S corporations, and owners  of
24        limited  liability companies, if the liability company is
25        treated as a partnership  for  purposes  of  federal  and
26        State  income  taxation,  there shall be allowed a credit
27        under this subsection (f) to be determined in  accordance
28        with  the  determination of income and distributive share
29        of income under Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S  of
30        the  Internal  Revenue  Code.  The credit shall be .5% of
31        the  basis  for  such  property.   The  credit  shall  be
32        available only in the taxable year in which the  property
33        is placed in service in the Enterprise Zone and shall not
34        be   allowed  to  the  extent  that  it  would  reduce  a

 1        taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed  by  subsections
 2        (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero.  For tax years
 3        ending on or after December 31, 1985, the credit shall be
 4        allowed  for the tax year in which the property is placed
 5        in service, or, if the amount of the credit  exceeds  the
 6        tax  liability  for  that  year,  whether  it exceeds the
 7        original liability or the  liability  as  later  amended,
 8        such excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
 9        liability  of  the  5  taxable years following the excess
10        credit year.  The credit shall be applied to the earliest
11        year for which there is a liability.  If there is  credit
12        from more than one tax year that is available to offset a
13        liability,  the  credit  accruing  first in time shall be
14        applied first.
15             (2)  The  term  qualified  property  means  property
16        which:
17                  (A)  is  tangible,   whether   new   or   used,
18             including  buildings  and  structural  components of

20                  (B)  is depreciable pursuant to Section 167  of
21             the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  except  that  "3-year
22             property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that
23             Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this
24             subsection (f);
25                  (C)  is  acquired  by  purchase  as  defined in
26             Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
27                  (D)  is used in  the  Enterprise  Zone  by  the
28             taxpayer; and
29                  (E)  has  not  been previously used in Illinois
30             in such a manner and  by  such  a  person  as  would
31             qualify  for  the credit provided by this subsection
32             (f) or subsection (e).
33             (3)  The basis of qualified property  shall  be  the
34        basis  used  to  compute  the  depreciation deduction for
 
                            -78-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1        federal income tax purposes.
 2             (4)  If the basis of the property for federal income
 3        tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has  been
 4        placed in service in the Enterprise Zone by the taxpayer,
 5        the  amount  of  such  increase  shall be deemed property
 6        placed in service on the date of such increase in basis.
 7             (5)  The term "placed in  service"  shall  have  the
 8        same  meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue
 9        Code.
10             (6)  If during any taxable year, any property ceases
11        to be qualified property in the  hands  of  the  taxpayer
12        within  48  months  after being placed in service, or the
13        situs of any qualified  property  is  moved  outside  the
14        Enterprise  Zone  within  48 months after being placed in
15        service, the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of
16        this Section for such taxable year  shall  be  increased.
17        Such  increase shall be determined by (i) recomputing the
18        investment credit which would have been allowed  for  the
19        year  in  which  credit  for such property was originally
20        allowed  by   eliminating   such   property   from   such
21        computation,  and (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit
22        from the amount of credit previously  allowed.   For  the
23        purposes  of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the basis
24        of qualified property resulting from a redetermination of
25        the purchase price  shall  be  deemed  a  disposition  of
26        qualified property to the extent of such reduction.
27          (g)  Jobs Tax Credit; Enterprise Zone and Foreign Trade
28    Zone or Sub-Zone.

18             purposes of this subsection.

15        such excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
16        liability  of  the  5  taxable years following the excess
17        credit year.  The credit shall be applied to the earliest
18        year for which there is a liability. If there  is  credit

20        liability, earlier credit shall be applied first.
21             (5)  The Department of Revenue shall promulgate such
22        rules and regulations as may be deemed necessary to carry
23        out the purposes of this subsection (g).

10        for  the  tax  imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this
11        Section to below zero.  The  credit  applicable  to  such
12        investments  shall  be taken in the taxable year in which
13        such investments have been  completed.   The  credit  for
14        additional investments beyond the minimum investment by a
15        designated   high   impact   business   authorized  under
16        subdivision (a)(3)(A) of  Section  5.5  of  the  Illinois
17        Enterprise  Zone  Act  shall  be  available  only  in the
18        taxable year in which the property is placed  in  service

25        credit  exceeds  the tax liability for that year, whether
26        it exceeds the original liability  or  the  liability  as
27        later  amended,  such  excess  may be carried forward and
28        applied to the tax  liability  of  the  5  taxable  years
29        following  the  excess  credit year.  The credit shall be
30        applied to  the  earliest  year  for  which  there  is  a
31        liability.   If  there  is  credit from more than one tax
32        year that is available to offset a liability, the  credit
33        accruing first in time shall be applied first.

 7             buildings;
 8                  (B)  is depreciable pursuant to Section 167  of
 9             the  Internal  Revenue  Code,  except  that  "3-year
10             property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that
11             Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this
12             subsection (h);
13                  (C)  is  acquired  by  purchase  as  defined in
14             Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and

16             Investment Credit provided by subsection (f) of this
17             Section.
18             (3)  The  basis  of  qualified property shall be the
19        basis used to  compute  the  depreciation  deduction  for
20        federal income tax purposes.
21             (4)  If the basis of the property for federal income
22        tax  depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
23        placed in service in a federally designated Foreign Trade
24        Zone or Sub-Zone located in Illinois by the taxpayer, the
25        amount of such increase shall be deemed  property  placed
26        in service on the date of such increase in basis.
27             (5)  The  term  "placed  in  service" shall have the
28        same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal  Revenue
29        Code.
30             (6)  If  during any taxable year ending on or before
31        December 31, 1996, any property ceases  to  be  qualified
32        property  in  the  hands of the taxpayer within 48 months

 2        under  subsections  (a)  and (b) of this Section for such
 3        taxable year shall be increased.  Such increase shall  be
 4        determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit which
 5        would  have been allowed for the year in which credit for
 6        such property was originally allowed by eliminating  such
 7        property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such
 8        recomputed  credit  from  the amount of credit previously
 9        allowed.  For the  purposes  of  this  paragraph  (6),  a
10        reduction  of  the  basis of qualified property resulting
11        from a redetermination of the  purchase  price  shall  be
12        deemed  a disposition of qualified property to the extent
13        of such reduction.
14             (7)  Beginning with tax years ending after  December
15        31,  1996,  if  a taxpayer qualifies for the credit under
16        this  subsection  (h)  and  thereby  is  granted  a   tax
17        abatement  and the taxpayer relocates its entire facility
18        in violation of the explicit  terms  and  length  of  the
19        contract  under  Section 18-183 of the Property Tax Code,
20        the tax imposed under subsections (a)  and  (b)  of  this
21        Section  shall be increased for the taxable year in which
22        the taxpayer relocated its facility by an amount equal to
23        the amount of credit received by the taxpayer under  this
24        subsection (h).
25        (i)  Credit  for Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
26    Tax.  A credit shall be allowed against the  tax  imposed  by
27    subsections  (a)  and (b) of this Section for the tax imposed
28    by subsections (c) and (d)  of  this  Section.   This  credit
29    shall   be   computed  by  multiplying  the  tax  imposed  by
30    subsections (c) and (d) of this Section by  a  fraction,  the
31    numerator  of  which is base income allocable to Illinois and
32    the denominator of which is Illinois base income, and further
33    multiplying  the  product  by  the  tax   rate   imposed   by
34    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section.

 4    subsections (a) and (b) for that year (whether it exceeds the
 5    original liability or the liability as later amended) may  be
 6    carried  forward  and applied to the tax liability imposed by
 7    subsections (a) and (b) of the 5 taxable years following  the
 8    excess  credit  year.   This credit shall be applied first to
 9    the earliest year for which there is a liability.   If  there
10    is a credit under this subsection from more than one tax year
11    that  is  available to offset a liability the earliest credit
12    arising under this subsection shall be applied first.
13        If, during any taxable year ending on or  after  December
14    31,  1986, the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
15    Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under  this
16    subsection  (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax
17    shall also be reduced.  Such reduction shall be determined by
18    recomputing the credit to take into account the  reduced  tax
19    imposed  by  subsections  subsection  (c)  and  (d).   If any
20    portion of the reduced amount of credit has been carried to a
21    different taxable year, an amended return shall be filed  for
22    such taxable year to reduce the amount of credit claimed.
23        (j)  Training  expense  credit.  Beginning with tax years
24    ending on or after December 31, 1986,  a  taxpayer  shall  be
25    allowed  a  credit  against  the  tax  imposed by subsections
26    subsection (a) and (b) under this  Section  for  all  amounts
27    paid  or  accrued,  on  behalf of all persons employed by the
28    taxpayer in Illinois or Illinois residents  employed  outside
29    of  Illinois  by  a  taxpayer,  for educational or vocational
30    training   in   semi-technical   or   technical   fields   or
31    semi-skilled or skilled  fields,  which  were  deducted  from
32    gross  income  in  the  computation  of  taxable income.  The
33    credit against the tax imposed by  subsections  (a)  and  (b)
34    shall  be  1.6%  of  such  training  expenses.  For partners,

 1    shareholders of subchapter  S  corporations,  and  owners  of
 2    limited  liability  companies,  if  the  liability company is
 3    treated as a partnership for purposes of  federal  and  State
 4    income  taxation,  there shall be allowed a credit under this
 5    subsection (j)  to  be  determined  in  accordance  with  the
 6    determination  of  income  and  distributive  share of income
 7    under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of  the  Internal
 8    Revenue Code.
 9        Any  credit allowed under this subsection which is unused
10    in the year the credit is earned may be  carried  forward  to
11    each  of the 5 taxable years following the year for which the
12    credit is first computed until it is used.  This credit shall
13    be applied first to the earliest year for which  there  is  a
14    liability.   If  there is a credit under this subsection from
15    more than  one  tax  year  that  is  available  to  offset  a
16    liability  the  earliest credit arising under this subsection
17    shall be applied first.
18        (k)  Research and development credit.
19        Beginning with tax years ending after  July  1,  1990,  a
20    taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by
21    subsections  (a)  and  (b)  of  this  Section  for increasing
22    research  activities  in  this  State.   The  credit  allowed
23    against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b)  shall  be
24    equal to 6 1/2% of the qualifying expenditures for increasing
25    research   activities   in   this   State.    For   partners,
26    shareholders  of  subchapter  S  corporations,  and owners of
27    limited liability companies,  if  the  liability  company  is
28    treated  as  a  partnership for purposes of federal and State
29    income taxation, there shall be allowed a credit  under  this
30    subsection   to   be   determined   in  accordance  with  the
31    determination of income  and  distributive  share  of  income
32    under  Sections  702 and 704 and subchapter S of the Internal
33    Revenue Code.
34        For   purposes   of    this    subsection,    "qualifying
 
                            -86-               LRB9215370EGfg
 1    expenditures"  means  the  qualifying expenditures as defined
 2    for the federal credit  for  increasing  research  activities
 3    which  would  be  allowable  under Section 41 of the Internal
 4    Revenue  Code  and  which  are  conducted  in   this   State,
 5    "qualifying  expenditures  for increasing research activities
 6    in this State" means the excess  of  qualifying  expenditures
 7    for  the  taxable  year  in  which  incurred  over qualifying
 8    expenditures for the base  period,  "qualifying  expenditures
 9    for  the  base  period"  means  the average of the qualifying
10    expenditures for each year in  the  base  period,  and  "base
11    period"  means  the 3 taxable years immediately preceding the
12    taxable year for which the determination is being made.
13        Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
14    year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
15    unused credit shown on its  final  completed  return  carried
16    over  as a credit against the tax liability for the following
17    5 taxable years or until it has been  fully  used,  whichever
18    occurs first.
19        If  an  unused  credit is carried forward to a given year
20    from 2 or more earlier years,  that  credit  arising  in  the
21    earliest year will be applied first against the tax liability
22    for  the  given  year.  If a tax liability for the given year
23    still remains, the credit from the next  earliest  year  will
24    then  be applied, and so on, until all credits have been used
25    or  no  tax  liability  for  the  given  year  remains.   Any
26    remaining unused credit  or  credits  then  will  be  carried
27    forward  to  the next following year in which a tax liability
28    is incurred, except that no credit can be carried forward  to
29    a year which is more than 5 years after the year in which the
30    expense for which the credit is given was incurred.
31        Unless  extended  by  law,  the  credit shall not include
32    costs incurred after December  31,  2004,  except  for  costs
33    incurred  pursuant  to  a binding contract entered into on or
34    before December 31, 2004.

 4        (l)  Environmental Remediation Tax Credit.
 5             (i)  For tax  years ending after December  31,  1997
 6        and  on  or before December 31, 2001, a taxpayer shall be
 7        allowed a credit against the tax imposed  by  subsections
 8        (a)  and (b) of this Section for certain amounts paid for
 9        unreimbursed eligible remediation costs, as specified  in
10        this   subsection.      For  purposes  of  this  Section,
11        "unreimbursed eligible  remediation  costs"  means  costs
12        approved  by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
13        ("Agency")  under  Section  58.14  of  the  Environmental
14        Protection Act that were paid in performing environmental
15        remediation at a site for which a No Further  Remediation
16        Letter  was  issued  by  the  Agency  and  recorded under
17        Section 58.10 of the Environmental Protection  Act.   The
18        credit  must  be  claimed  for  the taxable year in which
19        Agency approval of  the  eligible  remediation  costs  is
20        granted.   The credit is not available to any taxpayer if
21        the taxpayer or any related party caused  or  contributed
22        to,  in  any  material  respect,  a  release of regulated
23        substances on, in, or under the site that was  identified
24        and addressed by the remedial action pursuant to the Site
25        Remediation  Program of the Environmental Protection Act.
26        After the  Pollution  Control  Board  rules  are  adopted
27        pursuant to the Illinois Administrative Procedure Act for
28        the administration and enforcement of Section 58.9 of the
29        Environmental Protection Act, determinations as to credit
30        availability  for  purposes of this Section shall be made
31        consistent  with  those  rules.   For  purposes  of  this
32        Section,  "taxpayer"  includes   a   person   whose   tax
33        attributes  the  taxpayer  has succeeded to under Section
34        381 of the Internal  Revenue  Code  and  "related  party"

 1        includes the persons disallowed a deduction for losses by
 2        paragraphs  (b),  (c),  and  (f)(1) of Section 267 of the
 3        Internal Revenue  Code  by  virtue  of  being  a  related
 4        taxpayer,  as  well  as  any of its partners.  The credit
 5        allowed against the tax imposed by  subsections  (a)  and
 6        (b)  shall  be  equal to 25% of the unreimbursed eligible
 7        remediation costs in excess of $100,000 per site,  except
 8        that  the  $100,000 threshold shall not apply to any site
 9        contained in an enterprise  zone  as  determined  by  the
10        Department  of Commerce and Community Affairs.  The total
11        credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year  with  a
12        maximum  total  of  $150,000  per site.  For partners and
13        shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall be
14        allowed a credit under this subsection to  be  determined
15        in  accordance  with  the  determination  of  income  and
16        distributive  share  of income under Sections 702 and 704
17        and subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
18             (ii)  A credit allowed under this subsection that is
19        unused in the year the credit is earned  may  be  carried
20        forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year
21        for  which  the  credit is first earned until it is used.
22        The term "unused credit" does not include any amounts  of
23        unreimbursed  eligible remediation costs in excess of the
24        maximum credit per site authorized under  paragraph  (i).
25        This  credit  shall be applied first to the earliest year
26        for which there is a liability.  If  there  is  a  credit
27        under this subsection from more than one tax year that is
28        available  to  offset  a  liability,  the earliest credit
29        arising under this subsection shall be applied first.   A
30        credit  allowed  under  this  subsection may be sold to a
31        buyer as part of a sale of all or part of the remediation
32        site for which the credit was granted.  The purchaser  of
33        a  remediation  site  and the tax credit shall succeed to
34        the unused credit and remaining carry-forward  period  of

 1        the  seller.  To perfect the transfer, the assignor shall
 2        record the transfer in the chain of title  for  the  site
 3        and  provide  written  notice  to  the  Director  of  the
 4        Illinois  Department  of Revenue of the assignor's intent
 5        to sell the remediation site and the amount  of  the  tax
 6        credit to be transferred as a portion of the sale.  In no
 7        event  may a credit be transferred to any taxpayer if the
 8        taxpayer or a related party would not be  eligible  under
 9        the provisions of subsection (i).
10             (iii)  For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
11        shall  have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the
12        Environmental Protection Act.
13        (m)  Education expense credit.
14        Beginning with tax years ending after December 31,  1999,
15    a  taxpayer  who  is  the custodian of one or more qualifying
16    pupils shall be allowed a credit against the tax  imposed  by
17    subsections  (a)  and  (b)  of  this  Section  for  qualified
18    education  expenses  incurred  on  behalf  of  the qualifying
19    pupils.  The credit  shall  be  equal  to  25%  of  qualified
20    education  expenses,  but  in  no  event may the total credit
21    under this Section claimed by a family that is the  custodian
22    of qualifying pupils exceed $500.  In no event shall a credit
23    under  this  subsection reduce the taxpayer's liability under
24    this Act to less than zero.  This subsection is  exempt  from
25    the provisions of Section 250 of this Act.
26        For purposes of this subsection:;
27        "Qualifying   pupils"   means  individuals  who  (i)  are
28    residents of the State of Illinois, (ii) are under the age of
29    21 at the close of the school year  for  which  a  credit  is
30    sought,  and  (iii) during the school year for which a credit
31    is sought were full-time pupils enrolled  in  a  kindergarten
32    through  twelfth  grade  education  program at any school, as
33    defined in this subsection.
34        "Qualified education expense" means the  amount  incurred

 5    secondary school in Illinois that is in compliance with Title
 6    VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and  attendance  at  which
 7    satisfies  the  requirements  of  Section  26-1 of the School
 8    Code, except that nothing shall be  construed  to  require  a
 9    child  to attend any particular public or nonpublic school to
10    qualify for the credit under this Section.
11        "Custodian" means, with respect to qualifying pupils,  an

20             1969  appreciation  amount  for such property is the
21             lesser of (i) the excess of such fair  market  value
22             over the taxpayer's basis (for determining gain) for
23             such  property  on  that  date (determined under the

31             1969 appreciation amount for such property  is  that
32             amount  which bears the same ratio to the total gain
33             reported in respect  of  the  property  for  federal
34             income  tax  purposes  for  the taxable year, as the

17    refund of that amount from the  lessor.   If,  however,  that
18    amount  is  not  refunded  to  the lessee for any reason, the
19    lessor is liable to pay that amount to the Department.
20        (23)  Personal property purchased by a lessor who  leases
21    the  property,  under a lease of  one year or longer executed
22    or in effect at  the  time  the  lessor  would  otherwise  be

24    body that has been  issued  an  active  sales  tax  exemption
25    identification  number  by the Department under Section 1g of
26    the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. If the property is  leased
27    in  a manner that does not qualify for this exemption or used
28    in any other non-exempt manner, the lessor  shall  be  liable
29    for  the  tax  imposed  under this Act or the Service Use Tax
30    Act, as the case may be, based on the fair  market  value  of
31    the  property  at the time the non-qualifying use occurs.  No
32    lessor shall collect or attempt to collect an amount (however
33    designated) that purports to reimburse that  lessor  for  the
34    tax  imposed  by  this Act or the Service Use Tax Act, as the

 1    case may be, if the tax has not been paid by the lessor.   If
 2    a lessor improperly collects any such amount from the lessee,
 3    the lessee shall have a legal right to claim a refund of that
 4    amount  from  the  lessor.   If,  however, that amount is not
 5    refunded to the lessee for any reason, the lessor  is  liable
 6    to pay that amount to the Department.

10    for educational  purposes"  means  all  tax-supported  public

 4    purports to reimburse that lessor for the tax imposed by this
 5    Act  or  the  Service Use Tax Act, as the case may be, if the

 7    collects  any  such  amount from the lessee, the lessee shall
 8    have a legal right to claim a refund of that amount from  the
 9    lessor.   If,  however,  that  amount  is not refunded to the
10    lessee for any reason, the  lessor  is  liable  to  pay  that

18    a  governmental body that has been issued an active sales tax
19    exemption  identification  number  by  the  Department  under

22    exemption  or  used in any other nonexempt manner, the lessor
23    shall be liable for the tax imposed under  this  Act  or  the
24    Service  Use  Tax  Act, as the case may be, based on the fair
25    market value of the property at the  time  the  nonqualifying
26    use occurs.  No lessor shall collect or attempt to collect an
27    amount  (however  designated) that purports to reimburse that
28    lessor for the tax imposed by this Act or the Service Use Tax
29    Act, as the case may be, if the tax has not been paid by  the
30    lessor.  If a lessor improperly collects any such amount from
31    the  lessee,  the  lessee shall have a legal right to claim a
32    refund of that amount from the  lessor.   If,  however,  that
33    amount  is  not  refunded  to  the lessee for any reason, the

 8        (35 ILCS 105/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.9)
 9        Sec.   9.  Except   as  to  motor  vehicles,  watercraft,
10    aircraft, and trailers that are  required  to  be  registered
11    with  an  agency  of  this  State,  each retailer required or
12    authorized to collect the tax imposed by this Act  shall  pay
13    to the Department the amount of such tax (except as otherwise
14    provided)  at the time when he is required to file his return
15    for the period during which such tax was  collected,  less  a
16    discount  of  2.1% prior to January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and
17    after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever  is
18    greater,  which  is  allowed  to  reimburse  the retailer for
19    expenses incurred in collecting  the  tax,  keeping  records,
20    preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
21    data  to the Department on request.  In the case of retailers
22    who report and pay the tax on a  transaction  by  transaction
23    basis,  as  provided  in this Section, such discount shall be
24    taken with each such tax  remittance  instead  of  when  such
25    retailer  files  his  periodic  return.   A retailer need not
26    remit that part of any tax collected by  him  to  the  extent
27    that  he  is required to remit and does remit the tax imposed
28    by the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,  with  respect  to  the
29    sale of the same property.
30        Where  such  tangible  personal  property is sold under a
31    conditional sales contract, or under any other form  of  sale
32    wherein  the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof,
33    is extended beyond the close of  the  period  for  which  the
 
                            -139-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    return  is filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except
 2    as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that
 3    are required to be registered with an agency of this  State),
 4    may  collect  for  each  tax  return  period,  only  the  tax
 5    applicable  to  that  part  of  the  selling  price  actually
 6    received during such tax return period.
 7        Except  as  provided  in  this  Section, on or before the
 8    twentieth day of each calendar  month,  such  retailer  shall
 9    file  a return for the preceding calendar month.  Such return
10    shall be filed on forms  prescribed  by  the  Department  and
11    shall   furnish   such  information  as  the  Department  may
12    reasonably require.
13        The Department may require  returns  to  be  filed  on  a
14    quarterly  basis.  If so required, a return for each calendar
15    quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of  the
16    calendar  month  following  the end of such calendar quarter.
17    The taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for
18    each of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on  or
19    before  the  twentieth  day  of the following calendar month,
20    stating:
21             1.  The name of the seller;
22             2.  The address of the principal place  of  business
23        from which he engages in the business of selling tangible
24        personal property at retail in this State;
25             3.  The total amount of taxable receipts received by
26        him  during  the  preceding  calendar month from sales of
27        tangible personal property by him during  such  preceding
28        calendar  month,  including receipts from charge and time
29        sales, but less all deductions allowed by law;
30             4.  The amount of credit provided in Section  2d  of
31        this Act;
32             5.  The amount of tax due;
33             5-5.  The signature of the taxpayer; and
34             6.  Such   other   reasonable   information  as  the
 
                            -140-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        Department may require.
 2        If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
 3    the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
 4    the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown  to
 5    be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.
 6        Beginning  October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average

15    Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1,
16    2000,  a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000
17    or more shall make all payments  required  by  rules  of  the
18    Department  by  electronic  funds transfer.  The term "annual

20    under  this  Act,  and  under  all  other  State  and   local
21    occupation  and  use tax laws administered by the Department,
22    for  the  immediately  preceding  calendar  year.  The   term
23    "average   monthly  tax  liability"  means  the  sum  of  the
24    taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and  under  all  other
25    State  and  local occupation and use tax laws administered by
26    the Department, for the immediately preceding  calendar  year
27    divided  by  12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who
28    has a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b)
29    of Section 2505-210 of the Department of  Revenue  Law  shall

31    electronic funds transfer.
32        Before August 1 of  each  year  beginning  in  1993,  the
33    Department  shall  notify  all  taxpayers  required  to  make
34    payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required

 1    to  make  payments  by  electronic  funds transfer shall make
 2    those payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October
 3    1.
 4        Any taxpayer not required to make payments by  electronic
 5    funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
 6    with the permission of the Department.
 7        All  taxpayers  required  to  make  payment by electronic
 8    funds transfer and any taxpayers  authorized  to  voluntarily
 9    make  payments  by electronic funds transfer shall make those
10    payments in the manner authorized by the Department.

29    the taxpayer's  actual  liability  for  the  quarter  monthly
30    reporting   period.   The  amount  of  such  quarter  monthly
31    payments shall be credited against the final tax liability of
32    the taxpayer's return for  that  month.   Before  October  1,
33    2000,  once  applicable,  the  requirement  of  the making of
34    quarter monthly payments to  the  Department  shall  continue
 
                            -143-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    until  such  taxpayer's  average  monthly  liability  to  the
 2    Department  during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
 3    (excluding the month of highest liability and  the  month  of
 4    lowest   liability)  is  less  than  $9,000,  or  until  such
 5    taxpayer's average monthly liability  to  the  Department  as
 6    computed  for  each  calendar  quarter  of  the  4  preceding
 7    complete  calendar  quarter  period  is  less  than  $10,000.
 8    However,  if  a  taxpayer  can  show  the  Department  that a
 9    substantial change in the taxpayer's  business  has  occurred
10    which  causes  the  taxpayer  to  anticipate that his average
11    monthly tax liability for the reasonably  foreseeable  future
12    will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such
13    taxpayer  may  petition  the  Department  for  change in such
14    taxpayer's reporting status. On and after  October  1,  2000,
15    once  applicable,  the  requirement  of the making of quarter
16    monthly payments to the Department shall continue until  such
17    taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department during
18    the  preceding  4  complete  calendar quarters (excluding the
19    month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability)
20    is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
21    liability to the Department as  computed  for  each  calendar
22    quarter  of  the 4 preceding complete calendar quarter period
23    is less than $20,000.  However, if a taxpayer  can  show  the
24    Department  that  a  substantial  change  in  the  taxpayer's
25    business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to anticipate
26    that  his  average  monthly  tax liability for the reasonably
27    foreseeable future will  fall  below  the  $20,000  threshold
28    stated  above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department
29    for a change  in  such  taxpayer's  reporting  status.    The
30    Department  shall  change  such  taxpayer's  reporting status
31    unless it finds that such change is seasonal  in  nature  and
32    not  likely  to  be  long  term.  If any such quarter monthly
33    payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required  by
34    this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
 
                            -144-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due
 2    and  the  amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and
 3    timely paid, except insofar as the  taxpayer  has  previously
 4    made  payments  for that month to the Department in excess of
 5    the minimum payments  previously  due  as  provided  in  this
 6    Section.    The  Department  shall  make reasonable rules and
 7    regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount  and
 8    quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other
 9    than a calendar monthly basis.
10        If  any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
11    the taxpayer's liabilities under  this  Act,  the  Retailers'
12    Occupation  Tax  Act,  the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
13    Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly  return,
14    the   Department   shall  issue  to  the  taxpayer  a  credit
15    memorandum no later than 30 days after the date  of  payment,
16    which  memorandum  may  be  submitted  by the taxpayer to the
17    Department in payment of tax  liability  subsequently  to  be
18    remitted  by the taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by
19    the taxpayer to  a  similar  taxpayer  under  this  Act,  the
20    Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act
21    or  the  Service  Use  Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable
22    rules and regulations to be  prescribed  by  the  Department,
23    except  that  if  such excess payment is shown on an original
24    monthly return and is made after December 31, 1986, no credit
25    memorandum shall be issued, unless requested by the taxpayer.
26    If no such request is made,  the  taxpayer  may  credit  such
27    excess  payment  against  tax  liability  subsequently  to be
28    remitted by the taxpayer to the Department  under  this  Act,
29    the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
30    Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable
31    rules  and  regulations prescribed by the Department.  If the
32    Department subsequently determines that all or  any  part  of
33    the  credit  taken  was not actually due to the taxpayer, the
34    taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall  be  reduced
 
                            -145-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    by  2.1%  or 1.75% of the difference between the credit taken
 2    and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be  liable  for
 3    penalties and interest on such difference.
 4        If  the  retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
 5    return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
 6    the Department does  not  exceed  $200,  the  Department  may
 7    authorize  his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
 8    with the return for January, February, and March of  a  given
 9    year  being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
10    April, May and June of a given year being due by July  20  of
11    such  year; with the return for July, August and September of
12    a given year being due by October 20 of such year,  and  with
13    the return for October, November and December of a given year
14    being due by January 20 of the following year.
15        If  the  retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
16    or quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
17    liability  to  the  Department  does  not  exceed  $50,   the
18    Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
19    basis,  with the return for a given year being due by January
20    20 of the following year.
21        Such quarter annual and annual returns, as  to  form  and
22    substance,  shall  be  subject  to  the  same requirements as
23    monthly returns.
24        Notwithstanding  any  other   provision   in   this   Act
25    concerning  the  time  within  which  a retailer may file his
26    return, in the case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a
27    kind of business  which  makes  him  responsible  for  filing
28    returns  under  this  Act,  such  retailer shall file a final
29    return under this Act with the Department not more  than  one
30    month after discontinuing such business.
31        In  addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
32    aircraft, and trailers that are  required  to  be  registered
33    with  an  agency  of  this State, every retailer selling this
34    kind of tangible  personal  property  shall  file,  with  the
 
                            -146-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    Department,  upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the
 2    Department, a separate return for each such item of  tangible
 3    personal  property  which the retailer sells, except that if,
 4    in  the  same  transaction,  (i)  a  retailer  of   aircraft,
 5    watercraft,  motor  vehicles  or trailers transfers more than
 6    one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another
 7    aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer  retailer  for
 8    the  purpose  of  resale  or  (ii)  a  retailer  of aircraft,
 9    watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers  more  than
10    one  aircraft,  watercraft,  motor  vehicle,  or trailer to a
11    purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock  as  provided
12    in  Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may report the
13    transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor  vehicles  or
14    trailers  involved  in  that transaction to the Department on
15    the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting  return  form.
16    For  purposes  of this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2,
17    Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section  3-2  of
18    the  Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal watercraft,
19    or any boat equipped with an inboard motor.
20        The transaction reporting return in  the  case  of  motor
21    vehicles  or trailers that are required to be registered with
22    an agency of this State, shall be the same  document  as  the
23    Uniform  Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois
24    Vehicle Code and must  show  the  name  and  address  of  the
25    seller;  the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
26    the  selling  price  including  the  amount  allowed  by  the
27    retailer for traded-in property, if any; the  amount  allowed
28    by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
29    if  any,  to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows
30    an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
31    payable after deducting  such  trade-in  allowance  from  the
32    total  selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
33    with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
34    from the purchaser by the retailer on  such  transaction  (or
 
                            -147-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    satisfactory  evidence  that  such  tax  is  not  due in that
 2    particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact);  the
 3    place  and  date  of the sale; a sufficient identification of
 4    the property sold; such other information as is  required  in
 5    Section  5-402  of  the Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other
 6    information as the Department may reasonably require.
 7        The  transaction  reporting  return  in   the   case   of
 8    watercraft and aircraft must show the name and address of the
 9    seller;  the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
10    the  selling  price  including  the  amount  allowed  by  the
11    retailer for traded-in property, if any; the  amount  allowed
12    by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
13    if  any,  to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows
14    an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
15    payable after deducting  such  trade-in  allowance  from  the
16    total  selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
17    with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
18    from the purchaser by the retailer on  such  transaction  (or
19    satisfactory  evidence  that  such  tax  is  not  due in that
20    particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact);  the
21    place  and  date  of the sale, a sufficient identification of
22    the  property  sold,  and  such  other  information  as   the
23    Department may reasonably require.
24        Such  transaction  reporting  return  shall  be filed not
25    later than 20 days after the date of  delivery  of  the  item
26    that  is  being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any
27    time  sooner  than  that  if  he  chooses  to  do  so.    The
28    transaction  reporting  return and tax remittance or proof of
29    exemption from the tax that is imposed by  this  Act  may  be
30    transmitted to the Department by way of the State agency with
31    which,  or  State  officer  with  whom, the tangible personal
32    property  must  be  titled  or  registered  (if  titling   or
33    registration  is  required) if the Department and such agency
34    or State officer determine that this procedure will  expedite
 
                            -148-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    the processing of applications for title or registration.
 2        With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
 3    shall  remit  the  proper  amount of tax due (or shall submit
 4    satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
 5    the case), to the Department or  its  agents,  whereupon  the
 6    Department  shall  issue,  in  the  purchaser's  name,  a tax
 7    receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the  Department  is
 8    satisfied  that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
 9    purchaser may submit to  the  agency  with  which,  or  State
10    officer  with  whom,  he  must title or register the tangible
11    personal  property  that   is   involved   (if   titling   or
12    registration  is  required)  in  support  of such purchaser's
13    application for an Illinois certificate or other evidence  of
14    title or registration to such tangible personal property.
15        No  retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
16    Act precludes a user, who has paid  the  proper  tax  to  the
17    retailer,  from  obtaining  his certificate of title or other
18    evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
19    is required) upon satisfying the Department  that  such  user
20    has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer.  The
21    Department  shall  adopt  appropriate  rules to carry out the
22    mandate of this paragraph.
23        If the user who would otherwise pay tax to  the  retailer
24    wants  the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
25    of tax or proof of exemption made to  the  Department  before
26    the  retailer  is willing to take these actions and such user
27    has not paid the tax to the retailer, such user  may  certify
28    to  the fact of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the
29    Department   being   satisfied   of   the   truth   of   such
30    certification)  transmit  the  information  required  by  the
31    transaction reporting return and the remittance  for  tax  or
32    proof  of exemption directly to the Department and obtain his
33    tax receipt or exemption determination, in  which  event  the
34    transaction  reporting  return  and  tax remittance (if a tax
 
                            -149-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    payment was required) shall be credited by the Department  to
 2    the  proper  retailer's  account  with  the  Department,  but
 3    without  the  2.1%  or  1.75%  discount  provided for in this
 4    Section being allowed.  When the user pays the  tax  directly
 5    to  the  Department,  he shall pay the tax in the same amount
 6    and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax
 7    had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
 8        Where a retailer collects the tax  with  respect  to  the
 9    selling  price  of  tangible personal property which he sells
10    and the purchaser thereafter returns such  tangible  personal
11    property  and  the retailer refunds the selling price thereof
12    to the purchaser, such retailer shall  also  refund,  to  the
13    purchaser,  the  tax  so  collected  from the purchaser. When
14    filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax
15    to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount  of  the
16    tax  so  refunded  by him to the purchaser from any other use
17    tax which such retailer may be required to pay  or  remit  to
18    the Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the
19    tax  to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department
20    by  such  retailer.   If  the  retailer  has  not  previously
21    remitted the amount of such tax  to  the  Department,  he  is
22    entitled  to  no deduction under this Act upon refunding such
23    tax to the purchaser.
24        Any retailer filing a return  under  this  Section  shall
25    also  include  (for  the  purpose  of paying tax thereon) the
26    total tax covered by such return upon the  selling  price  of
27    tangible  personal property purchased by him at retail from a
28    retailer, but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not
29    collected from the retailer  filing  such  return,  and  such
30    retailer shall remit the amount of such tax to the Department
31    when filing such return.
32        If  experience  indicates  such action to be practicable,
33    the Department may prescribe and  furnish  a  combination  or
34    joint return which will enable retailers, who are required to
 
                            -150-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    file   returns   hereunder  and  also  under  the  Retailers'
 2    Occupation Tax Act, to furnish  all  the  return  information
 3    required by both Acts on the one form.
 4        Where  the retailer has more than one business registered
 5    with the Department under separate  registration  under  this
 6    Act,  such retailer may not file each return that is due as a
 7    single return covering all such  registered  businesses,  but
 8    shall   file   separate  returns  for  each  such  registered
 9    business.
10        Beginning January 1,  1990,  each  month  the  Department
11    shall  pay  into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a
12    special fund in the State Treasury which is  hereby  created,
13    the  net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1%
14    tax on sales of food for human consumption  which  is  to  be
15    consumed  off  the  premises  where  it  is  sold (other than
16    alcoholic beverages, soft drinks  and  food  which  has  been
17    prepared  for  immediate  consumption)  and  prescription and
18    nonprescription  medicines,  drugs,  medical  appliances  and
19    insulin, urine testing materials, syringes and  needles  used
20    by diabetics.
21        Beginning  January  1,  1990,  each  month the Department
22    shall pay into the County and Mass Transit District  Fund  4%
23    of  the net revenue realized for the preceding month from the
24    6.25% general rate on the selling price of tangible  personal
25    property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a
26    retailer  and  which  is titled or registered by an agency of
27    this State's government.
28        Beginning January 1,  1990,  each  month  the  Department
29    shall  pay  into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a
30    special fund in the State Treasury, 20% of  the  net  revenue
31    realized  for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate
32    on the selling price of  tangible  personal  property,  other
33    than  tangible  personal  property which is purchased outside
34    Illinois at retail from a retailer and  which  is  titled  or
 
                            -151-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    registered by an agency of this State's government.
 2        Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall
 3    pay  into  the  State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of
 4    the net revenue realized for the  preceding  month  from  the
 5    1.25% rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.
 6        Beginning  January  1,  1990,  each  month the Department
 7    shall pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of  the  net
 8    revenue  realized  for  the  preceding  month  from the 6.25%
 9    general rate  on  the  selling  price  of  tangible  personal
10    property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a
11    retailer  and  which  is titled or registered by an agency of
12    this State's government.
13        Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department
14    pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall  be  paid  into
15    the  Build  Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2%
16    and on and after July 1, 1989, 3.8%  thereof  shall  be  paid
17    into  the  Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in
18    any fiscal year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%,
19    as the case may be, of the moneys received by the  Department
20    and required to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant
21    to  Section 3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9
22    of the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and
23    Section 9 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts  being
24    hereinafter  called the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2%
25    or 3.8%, as the case may  be,  of  moneys  being  hereinafter
26    called  the  "Tax Act Amount", and (2) the amount transferred
27    to the Build Illinois Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax
28    Reform Fund shall be less than the  Annual  Specified  Amount
29    (as  defined  in  Section  3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax
30    Act), an amount equal to the difference shall be  immediately
31    paid  into the Build Illinois Fund from other moneys received
32    by the Department pursuant  to  the  Tax  Acts;  and  further
33    provided,  that  if on the last business day of any month the
34    sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount required to be  deposited  into
 
                            -152-              LRB9215370EGfg

 2    during such month and (2) the amount transferred during  such
 3    month  to  the  Build  Illinois Fund from the State and Local
 4    Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less than 1/12  of  the
 5    Annual  Specified  Amount,  an amount equal to the difference
 6    shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois  Fund  from
 7    other  moneys  received by the Department pursuant to the Tax
 8    Acts; and, further provided,  that  in  no  event  shall  the
 9    payments  required  under  the  preceding  proviso  result in
10    aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund  pursuant  to
11    this  clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of the greater
12    of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual Specified Amount
13    for such fiscal year; and, further provided, that the amounts
14    payable into the Build Illinois Fund under  this  clause  (b)
15    shall be payable only until such time as the aggregate amount
16    on  deposit  under each trust indenture securing Bonds issued
17    and outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois  Bond  Act  is
18    sufficient, taking into account any future investment income,
19    to  fully provide, in accordance with such indenture, for the
20    defeasance of or the payment of the principal of, premium, if
21    any, and interest on the Bonds secured by such indenture  and
22    on  any  Bonds  expected to be issued thereafter and all fees
23    and costs payable with respect thereto, all as  certified  by
24    the  Director  of  the  Bureau of the Budget.  If on the last
25    business day of any month  in  which  Bonds  are  outstanding
26    pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act, the aggregate of the

 1    lessor who leases the equipment, under a lease of one year or
 2    longer executed or in effect at the  time  the  lessor  would
 3    otherwise  be  subject  to  the tax imposed by this Act, to a
 4    hospital  that  has  been  issued  an  active  tax  exemption
 5    identification number by the Department under Section  1g  of
 6    the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. If the equipment is leased
 7    in  a  manner  that does not qualify for this exemption or is
 8    used in any other non-exempt  manner,  the  lessor  shall  be
 9    liable for the tax imposed under this Act or the Use Tax Act,
10    as  the  case  may  be, based on the fair market value of the
11    property at the  time  the  non-qualifying  use  occurs.   No
12    lessor shall collect or attempt to collect an amount (however
13    designated)  that  purports  to reimburse that lessor for the
14    tax imposed by this Act or the Use Tax Act, as the  case  may
15    be,  if the tax has not been paid by the lessor.  If a lessor
16    improperly collects any such  amount  from  the  lessee,  the
17    lessee  shall  have  a  legal right to claim a refund of that
18    amount from the lessor.  If,  however,  that  amount  is  not
19    refunded  to  the lessee for any reason, the lessor is liable
20    to pay that amount to the Department.
21        (16)  Personal property purchased by a lessor who  leases
22    the property, under a lease of one year or longer executed or
23    in  effect  at the time the lessor would otherwise be subject
24    to the tax imposed by this Act, to a governmental  body  that
25    has been issued an active tax exemption identification number
26    by   the  Department  under  Section  1g  of  the  Retailers'
27    Occupation Tax Act.  If the property is leased  in  a  manner
28    that  does  not  qualify for this exemption or is used in any
29    other non-exempt manner, the lessor shall be liable  for  the
30    tax  imposed  under  this Act or the Use Tax Act, as the case
31    may be, based on the fair market value of the property at the
32    time the non-qualifying use occurs.  No lessor shall  collect
33    or  attempt  to  collect  an amount (however designated) that
34    purports to reimburse that lessor for the tax imposed by this
 
                            -162-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    Act or the Use Tax Act, as the case may be, if  the  tax  has
 2    not been paid by the lessor.  If a lessor improperly collects
 3    any  such  amount  from  the  lessee, the lessee shall have a
 4    legal right to claim a refund of that amount from the lessor.
 5    If, however, that amount is not refunded to  the  lessee  for
 6    any  reason,  the  lessor is liable to pay that amount to the
 7    Department.

11    for  educational  purposes"  means  all  tax-supported public

30    the benefit of private home instruction or (ii) for which the
31    fundraising entity purchases the personal  property  sold  at
32    the  events  from  another individual or entity that sold the

30    issued an active tax exemption identification number  by  the
31    Department  under Section 1g of the Retailers' Occupation Tax
32    Act.  If the equipment is leased in a manner  that  does  not
33    qualify  for this exemption or is used in any other nonexempt
34    manner, the lessor shall be liable for the tax imposed  under
 
                            -165-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    this Act or the Use Tax Act, as the case may be, based on the
 2    fair   market   value   of  the  property  at  the  time  the
 3    nonqualifying use occurs. No lessor shall collect or  attempt
 4    to  collect  an  amount (however designated) that purports to
 5    reimburse that lessor for the tax imposed by this Act or  the
 6    Use Tax Act, as the case may be, if the tax has not been paid
 7    by  the  lessor.   If  a  lessor improperly collects any such
 8    amount from the lessee, the lessee shall have a  legal  right
 9    to  claim  a  refund  of  that  amount  from the lessor.  If,
10    however, that amount is not refunded to the  lessee  for  any
11    reason,  the  lessor  is  liable  to  pay  that amount to the
12    Department. This paragraph is exempt from the  provisions  of
13    Section 3-75.

19    by  this  Act, to a governmental body that has been issued an
20    active tax exemption identification number by the  Department
21    under  Section  1g  of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act.  If
22    the property is leased in a manner that does not qualify  for
23    this  exemption or is used in any other nonexempt manner, the
24    lessor shall be liable for the tax imposed under this Act  or
25    the Use Tax Act, as the case may be, based on the fair market
26    value  of  the  property  at  the  time the nonqualifying use
27    occurs.  No lessor shall collect or  attempt  to  collect  an
28    amount  (however  designated) that purports to reimburse that
29    lessor for the tax imposed by this Act or the Use Tax Act, as
30    the case may be, if the tax has not been paid by the  lessor.
31    If  a  lessor  improperly  collects  any such amount from the
32    lessee, the lessee shall have a legal right to claim a refund
33    of that amount from the lessor.  If, however, that amount  is
34    not  refunded  to  the  lessee  for any reason, the lessor is

 9        Sec.   9.  Each  serviceman  required  or  authorized  to
10    collect the tax herein imposed shall pay  to  the  Department
11    the  amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the
12    time when he is required to file his return  for  the  period
13    during  which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1%
14    prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75% on and  after  January  1,
15    1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is
16    allowed  to reimburse the serviceman for expenses incurred in
17    collecting the tax, keeping  records,  preparing  and  filing
18    returns,   remitting  the  tax  and  supplying  data  to  the
19    Department on request. A serviceman need not remit that  part
20    of any tax collected by him to the extent that he is required
21    to pay and does pay the tax imposed by the Service Occupation
22    Tax  Act  with  respect  to his sale of service involving the
23    incidental transfer by him of the same property.
24        Except as provided hereinafter in  this  Section,  on  or
25    before  the  twentieth  day  of  each  calendar  month,  such
26    serviceman  shall  file  a  return for the preceding calendar
27    month in accordance with reasonable Rules and Regulations  to
28    be  promulgated by the Department. Such return shall be filed
29    on a form prescribed by the Department and shall contain such
30    information as the Department may reasonably require.
31        The Department may require  returns  to  be  filed  on  a
32    quarterly  basis.  If so required, a return for each calendar
33    quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of  the
 
                            -167-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    calendar  month  following  the end of such calendar quarter.
 2    The taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for
 3    each of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on  or
 4    before  the  twentieth  day  of the following calendar month,
 5    stating:
 6             1.  The name of the seller;
 7             2.  The address of the principal place  of  business
 8        from which he engages in business as a serviceman in this
 9        State;
10             3.  The total amount of taxable receipts received by
11        him   during  the  preceding  calendar  month,  including
12        receipts  from  charge  and  time  sales,  but  less  all
13        deductions allowed by law;
14             4.  The amount of credit provided in Section  2d  of
15        this Act;
16             5.  The amount of tax due;
17             5-5.  The signature of the taxpayer; and
18             6.  Such   other   reasonable   information  as  the
19        Department may require.
20        If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
21    the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
22    the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown  to
23    be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.
24        Beginning  October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average
25    monthly tax liability of $150,000  or  more  shall  make  all
26    payments  required  by  rules of the Department by electronic
27    funds transfer.  Beginning October 1, 1994,  a  taxpayer  who
28    has  an  average  monthly  tax  liability of $100,000 or more
29    shall make all payments required by rules of  the  Department
30    by  electronic  funds transfer.  Beginning October 1, 1995, a
31    taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of  $50,000
32    or  more  shall  make  all  payments required by rules of the
33    Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1,
34    2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of  $200,000
 
                            -168-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    or  more  shall  make  all  payments required by rules of the
 2    Department by electronic funds transfer.   The  term  "annual
 3    tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities
 4    under   this  Act,  and  under  all  other  State  and  local
 5    occupation and use tax laws administered by  the  Department,
 6    for  the  immediately  preceding  calendar  year.    The term
 7    "average  monthly  tax  liability"  means  the  sum  of   the
 8    taxpayer's  liabilities  under  this Act, and under all other
 9    State and local occupation and use tax laws  administered  by
10    the  Department,  for the immediately preceding calendar year
11    divided by 12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a  taxpayer  who
12    has a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b)
13    of  Section  2505-210  of the Department of Revenue Law shall
14    make all payments required by  rules  of  the  Department  by
15    electronic funds transfer.
16        Before  August  1  of  each  year  beginning in 1993, the
17    Department  shall  notify  all  taxpayers  required  to  make
18    payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required
19    to make payments by  electronic  funds  transfer  shall  make
20    those payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October
21    1.
22        Any  taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic
23    funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
24    with the permission of the Department.
25        All taxpayers required  to  make  payment  by  electronic
26    funds  transfer  and  any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily
27    make payments by electronic funds transfer shall  make  those
28    payments in the manner authorized by the Department.
29        The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
30    effectuate  a  program  of  electronic funds transfer and the
31    requirements of this Section.
32        If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
33    return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax  liability
34    to  the  Department  does not exceed $200, the Department may
 
                            -169-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual  basis,
 2    with  the  return  for January, February and March of a given
 3    year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return  for
 4    April,  May  and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
 5    such year; with the return for July, August and September  of
 6    a  given  year being due by October 20 of such year, and with
 7    the return for October, November and December of a given year
 8    being due by January 20 of the following year.
 9        If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
10    or quarterly return and if the serviceman's  average  monthly
11    tax  liability  to  the  Department  does not exceed $50, the
12    Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
13    basis, with the return for a given year being due by  January
14    20 of the following year.
15        Such  quarter  annual  and annual returns, as to form and
16    substance, shall be  subject  to  the  same  requirements  as
17    monthly returns.
18        Notwithstanding   any   other   provision   in  this  Act
19    concerning the time within which a serviceman  may  file  his
20    return, in the case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in
21    a  kind  of  business  which makes him responsible for filing
22    returns under this Act, such serviceman shall  file  a  final
23    return  under  this  Act  with the Department not more than 1
24    month after discontinuing such business.
25        Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect  to  the
26    selling  price  of  property which he sells and the purchaser
27    thereafter returns such property and the  serviceman  refunds
28    the  selling  price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman
29    shall also refund, to the purchaser,  the  tax  so  collected
30    from  the purchaser. When filing his return for the period in
31    which he refunds such tax to the  purchaser,  the  serviceman
32    may  deduct  the  amount of the tax so refunded by him to the
33    purchaser from any other Service Use Tax, Service  Occupation
34    Tax,   retailers'  occupation  tax  or  use  tax  which  such
 
                            -170-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    serviceman may be required to pay or remit to the Department,
 2    as shown by such return, provided that the amount of the  tax
 3    to  be  deducted  shall  previously have been remitted to the
 4    Department by such serviceman. If the  serviceman  shall  not
 5    previously  have  remitted  the  amount  of  such  tax to the
 6    Department, he shall be entitled to  no  deduction  hereunder
 7    upon refunding such tax to the purchaser.
 8        Any  serviceman  filing  a  return  hereunder  shall also
 9    include the total tax upon  the  selling  price  of  tangible
10    personal  property purchased for use by him as an incident to
11    a sale of service, and such serviceman shall remit the amount
12    of such tax to the Department when filing such return.
13        If experience indicates such action  to  be  practicable,
14    the  Department  may  prescribe  and furnish a combination or
15    joint return which will enable servicemen, who  are  required
16    to   file  returns  hereunder  and  also  under  the  Service
17    Occupation Tax Act, to furnish  all  the  return  information
18    required by both Acts on the one form.
19        Where   the   serviceman   has  more  than  one  business
20    registered with the Department  under  separate  registration
21    hereunder, such serviceman shall not file each return that is
22    due   as   a  single  return  covering  all  such  registered

20    payments in the manner authorized by the Department.
21        The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
22    effectuate a program of electronic  funds  transfer  and  the
23    requirements of this Section.
24        Where  a  serviceman collects the tax with respect to the
25    selling price of tangible personal property  which  he  sells
26    and  the  purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
27    property and the serviceman refunds the selling price thereof
28    to the purchaser, such serviceman shall also refund,  to  the
29    purchaser,  the  tax  so  collected from the purchaser.  When
30    filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax
31    to the purchaser, the serviceman may deduct the amount of the
32    tax so refunded by  him  to  the  purchaser  from  any  other
33    Service   Occupation   Tax,   Service   Use  Tax,  Retailers'
34    Occupation Tax or  Use  Tax  which  such  serviceman  may  be

 2    return, provided that the amount of the tax  to  be  deducted
 3    shall previously have been remitted to the Department by such
 4    serviceman.   If  the  serviceman  shall  not previously have
 5    remitted the amount of such tax to the Department,  he  shall
 6    be entitled to no deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax
 7    to the purchaser.
 8        If  experience  indicates  such action to be practicable,
 9    the Department may prescribe and  furnish  a  combination  or
10    joint  return  which will enable servicemen, who are required
11    to file returns  hereunder  and  also  under  the  Retailers'
12    Occupation  Tax  Act,  the Use Tax Act or the Service Use Tax
13    Act, to furnish all the return information  required  by  all
14    said Acts on the one form.
15        Where   the   serviceman   has  more  than  one  business
16    registered with the Department under  separate  registrations
17    hereunder,  such  serviceman  shall file separate returns for
18    each registered business.

33    pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 20% of the
34    net  revenue  realized for the preceding month from the 1.25%

 5    and,  further  provided,  that in no event shall the payments
 6    required under the  preceding  proviso  result  in  aggregate
 7    payments into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to this clause
 8    (b)  for  any fiscal year in excess of the greater of (i) the
 9    Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual Specified Amount  for  such

 3    Infrastructure Fund 80% of the net revenue realized from  the

 9    Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois.
10        Remaining moneys received by the Department  pursuant  to

15    Department on a form prescribed by the Department within  not
16    less  than  60  days  after  receipt  of the notice an annual

18    Such   annual  return  to  the  Department  shall  include  a
19    statement of gross receipts as shown by the  taxpayer's  last
20    Federal  income  tax  return.   If  the total receipts of the
21    business as reported in the Federal income tax return do  not
22    agree  with  the gross receipts reported to the Department of
23    Revenue for the same period, the taxpayer shall attach to his
24    annual return a schedule showing a reconciliation  of  the  2
25    amounts  and  the reasons for the difference.  The taxpayer's
26    annual return to the Department shall also disclose the  cost
27    of goods sold by the taxpayer during the year covered by such
28    return,  opening  and  closing  inventories of such goods for

34    monthly,  quarterly  or annual returns filed by such taxpayer

 1    as hereinbefore provided for in this Section.
 2        If the annual information return required by this Section
 3    is not filed when and as  required,  the  taxpayer  shall  be
 4    liable as follows:
 5             (i)  Until  January  1,  1994, the taxpayer shall be
 6        liable for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of  the  tax  due
 7        from such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be
 8        covered  by  the annual return for each month or fraction
 9        of a month until such return is filed  as  required,  the
10        penalty  to  be assessed and collected in the same manner
11        as any other penalty provided for in this Act.
12             (ii)  On and after January  1,  1994,  the  taxpayer
13        shall be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4
14        of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act.
15        The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest
16    ranking  manager  shall sign the annual return to certify the
17    accuracy of the information contained  therein.   Any  person
18    who  willfully  signs  the  annual return containing false or
19    inaccurate  information  shall  be  guilty  of  perjury   and
20    punished  accordingly.   The annual return form prescribed by
21    the Department  shall  include  a  warning  that  the  person
22    signing the return may be liable for perjury.
23        The  foregoing  portion  of  this  Section concerning the
24    filing of an annual information return shall not apply  to  a
25    serviceman  who  is not required to file an income tax return
26    with the United States Government.

 9             3.  Total  amount of receipts received by him during
10        the preceding calendar month or quarter, as the case  may
11        be,  from  sales  of tangible personal property, and from

30    the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
31    the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown  to

 2    than  50 cents and shall be increased to $1 if it is 50 cents
 3    or more.

 5    monthly  tax  liability  of  $150,000  or more shall make all
 6    payments required by rules of the  Department  by  electronic
 7    funds  transfer.   Beginning  October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who
 8    has an average monthly tax  liability  of  $100,000  or  more
 9    shall  make  all payments required by rules of the Department

13    Department  by  electronic funds transfer.  Beginning October
14    1, 2000, a taxpayer  who  has  an  annual  tax  liability  of
15    $200,000 or more shall make all payments required by rules of
16    the  Department  by  electronic  funds  transfer.   The  term
17    "annual  tax  liability"  shall  be the sum of the taxpayer's
18    liabilities under this Act, and under  all  other  State  and
19    local  occupation  and  use  tax  laws  administered  by  the

23    State and local occupation and use tax laws  administered  by
24    the  Department,  for the immediately preceding calendar year
25    divided by 12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a  taxpayer  who
26    has a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b)
27    of  Section  2505-210  of the Department of Revenue Law shall
28    make all payments required by  rules  of  the  Department  by
29    electronic funds transfer.
30        Before  August  1  of  each  year  beginning in 1993, the
31    Department  shall  notify  all  taxpayers  required  to  make
32    payments  by  electronic  funds  transfer.    All   taxpayers
33    required  to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall
34    make those payments for a minimum of one  year  beginning  on
 
                            -211-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    October 1.
 2        Any  taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic
 3    funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
 4    with the permission of the Department.
 5        All taxpayers required  to  make  payment  by  electronic
 6    funds  transfer  and  any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily
 7    make payments by electronic funds transfer shall  make  those
 8    payments in the manner authorized by the Department.
 9        The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
10    effectuate  a  program  of  electronic funds transfer and the
11    requirements of this Section.
12        Any amount which is required to be shown or  reported  on
13    any  return  or  other document under this Act shall, if such
14    amount is not a whole-dollar  amount,  be  increased  to  the
15    nearest  whole-dollar amount in any case where the fractional
16    part of a dollar is 50 cents or more, and  decreased  to  the
17    nearest  whole-dollar  amount  where the fractional part of a
18    dollar is less than 50 cents.
19        If the retailer is otherwise required to file  a  monthly
20    return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
21    the  Department  does  not  exceed  $200,  the Department may
22    authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual  basis,
23    with  the  return  for January, February and March of a given
24    year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return  for
25    April,  May  and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
26    such year; with the return for July, August and September  of
27    a  given  year being due by October 20 of such year, and with
28    the return for October, November and December of a given year
29    being due by January 20 of the following year.
30        If the retailer is otherwise required to file  a  monthly
31    or quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
32    liability  with  the  Department  does  not  exceed  $50, the
33    Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
34    basis, with the return for a given year being due by  January
 
                            -212-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    20 of the following year.
 2        Such  quarter  annual  and annual returns, as to form and
 3    substance, shall be  subject  to  the  same  requirements  as
 4    monthly returns.
 5        Notwithstanding   any   other   provision   in  this  Act
 6    concerning the time within which  a  retailer  may  file  his
 7    return, in the case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a
 8    kind  of  business  which  makes  him  responsible for filing
 9    returns under this Act, such  retailer  shall  file  a  final
10    return  under  this Act with the Department not more than one
11    month after discontinuing such business.
12        Where  the  same  person  has  more  than  one   business
13    registered  with  the Department under separate registrations
14    under this Act, such person may not file each return that  is
15    due   as   a  single  return  covering  all  such  registered
16    businesses, but shall file separate  returns  for  each  such
17    registered business.
18        In  addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
19    aircraft, and trailers that are  required  to  be  registered
20    with  an  agency  of  this State, every retailer selling this
21    kind of tangible  personal  property  shall  file,  with  the
22    Department,  upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the
23    Department, a separate return for each such item of  tangible
24    personal  property  which the retailer sells, except that if,
25    in  the  same  transaction,  (i)  a  retailer  of   aircraft,
26    watercraft,  motor  vehicles  or trailers transfers more than
27    one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another
28    aircraft,  watercraft,  motor  vehicle  retailer  or  trailer
29    retailer for the purpose of resale  or  (ii)  a  retailer  of
30    aircraft,  watercraft,  motor vehicles, or trailers transfers
31    more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer
32    to a purchaser for use  as  a  qualifying  rolling  stock  as
33    provided  in  Section  2-5  of this Act, then that seller may
34    report  the  transfer  of  all  aircraft,  watercraft,  motor
 
                            -213-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    vehicles or trailers involved  in  that  transaction  to  the
 2    Department  on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
 3    return form.  For  purposes  of  this  Section,  "watercraft"
 4    means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in
 5    Section  3-2  of  the  Boat  Registration  and  Safety Act, a
 6    personal watercraft, or any boat  equipped  with  an  inboard
 7    motor.
 8        Any  retailer  who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft,
 9    aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with
10    an agency of this State, so that  all  retailers'  occupation
11    tax liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on
12    such  transaction  reporting returns and who is not otherwise
13    required to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not  file
14    monthly or quarterly returns.  However, those retailers shall
15    be required to file returns on an annual basis.
16        The  transaction  reporting  return, in the case of motor
17    vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered  with
18    an  agency  of  this State, shall be the same document as the
19    Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of The  Illinois
20    Vehicle  Code  and  must  show  the  name  and address of the
21    seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount  of
22    the  selling  price  including  the  amount  allowed  by  the
23    retailer  for  traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed
24    by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
25    if any, to the extent to which Section 1 of this  Act  allows
26    an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
27    payable  after  deducting  such  trade-in  allowance from the
28    total selling price; the amount of tax due from the  retailer
29    with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
30    from  the  purchaser  by the retailer on such transaction (or
31    satisfactory evidence that  such  tax  is  not  due  in  that
32    particular  instance, if that is claimed to be the fact); the
33    place and date of the sale; a  sufficient  identification  of
34    the  property  sold; such other information as is required in
 
                            -214-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    Section 5-402 of The Illinois Vehicle Code,  and  such  other
 2    information as the Department may reasonably require.
 3        The   transaction   reporting   return  in  the  case  of
 4    watercraft or aircraft must show the name and address of  the
 5    seller;  the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
 6    the  selling  price  including  the  amount  allowed  by  the
 7    retailer for traded-in property, if any; the  amount  allowed
 8    by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
 9    if  any,  to the extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows
10    an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
11    payable after deducting  such  trade-in  allowance  from  the
12    total  selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
13    with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
14    from the purchaser by the retailer on  such  transaction  (or
15    satisfactory  evidence  that  such  tax  is  not  due in that
16    particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact);  the
17    place  and  date  of the sale, a sufficient identification of
18    the  property  sold,  and  such  other  information  as   the
19    Department may reasonably require.
20        Such  transaction  reporting  return  shall  be filed not
21    later than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that
22    is being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at  any  time
23    sooner  than  that  if  he chooses to do so.  The transaction
24    reporting return and tax remittance  or  proof  of  exemption
25    from   the  Illinois  use  tax  may  be  transmitted  to  the
26    Department by way of the State agency with  which,  or  State
27    officer  with  whom  the  tangible  personal property must be
28    titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
29    if the Department and such agency or State officer  determine
30    that   this   procedure   will  expedite  the  processing  of
31    applications for title or registration.
32        With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
33    shall remit the proper amount of tax  due  (or  shall  submit
34    satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
 
                            -215-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    the  case),  to  the  Department or its agents, whereupon the
 2    Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name,  a  use  tax
 3    receipt  (or  a certificate of exemption if the Department is
 4    satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which  such
 5    purchaser  may  submit  to  the  agency  with which, or State
 6    officer with whom, he must title  or  register  the  tangible
 7    personal   property   that   is   involved   (if  titling  or
 8    registration is required)  in  support  of  such  purchaser's
 9    application  for an Illinois certificate or other evidence of
10    title or registration to such tangible personal property.
11        No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under  this
12    Act  precludes  a  user,  who  has paid the proper tax to the
13    retailer, from obtaining his certificate of  title  or  other
14    evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
15    is  required)  upon  satisfying the Department that such user
16    has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer.  The
17    Department shall adopt appropriate rules  to  carry  out  the
18    mandate of this paragraph.
19        If  the  user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
20    wants the transaction reporting return filed and the  payment
21    of  the  tax  or  proof  of  exemption made to the Department
22    before the retailer is willing to take these actions and such
23    user has not paid the tax to  the  retailer,  such  user  may
24    certify  to  the  fact  of such delay by the retailer and may
25    (upon the Department being satisfied of  the  truth  of  such
26    certification)  transmit  the  information  required  by  the
27    transaction  reporting  return  and the remittance for tax or
28    proof of exemption directly to the Department and obtain  his
29    tax  receipt  or  exemption determination, in which event the
30    transaction reporting return and tax  remittance  (if  a  tax
31    payment  was required) shall be credited by the Department to
32    the  proper  retailer's  account  with  the  Department,  but
33    without the 2.1% or  1.75%  discount  provided  for  in  this
34    Section  being  allowed.  When the user pays the tax directly
 
                            -216-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    to the Department, he shall pay the tax in  the  same  amount
 2    and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax
 3    had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
 4        Refunds  made  by  the seller during the preceding return
 5    period  to  purchasers,  on  account  of  tangible   personal
 6    property  returned  to  the  seller,  shall  be  allowed as a
 7    deduction under subdivision 5 of  his  monthly  or  quarterly
 8    return,   as  the  case  may  be,  in  case  the  seller  had
 9    theretofore included the  receipts  from  the  sale  of  such
10    tangible  personal  property in a return filed by him and had
11    paid the tax  imposed  by  this  Act  with  respect  to  such
12    receipts.
13        Where  the  seller  is a corporation, the return filed on
14    behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the  president,

16    accredited agent of such corporation.
17        Where the seller is  a  limited  liability  company,  the
18    return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall
19    be  signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent
20    of the limited liability company.
21        Except as provided in this Section, the  retailer  filing
22    the  return  under  this Section shall, at the time of filing
23    such return, pay to the Department the amount of tax  imposed
24    by  this Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990
25    and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or  $5  per  calendar
26    year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
27    retailer  for  the  expenses  incurred  in  keeping  records,
28    preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
29    data  to  the  Department  on  request.   Any prepayment made
30    pursuant to Section 2d of this Act shall be included  in  the
31    amount  on which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed.  In
32    the case of retailers  who  report  and  pay  the  tax  on  a
33    transaction   by  transaction  basis,  as  provided  in  this
34    Section, such discount shall be  taken  with  each  such  tax

 2    return.
 3        Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
 4    tax liability to the Department under this Act, the  Use  Tax
 5    Act,  the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
 6    Act, excluding any liability for  prepaid  sales  tax  to  be
 7    remitted  in  accordance  with  Section  2d  of this Act, was
 8    $10,000 or more during  the  preceding  4  complete  calendar
 9    quarters,  he  shall  file  a return with the Department each
10    month by the 20th day of the month next following  the  month
11    during  which  such  tax liability is incurred and shall make
12    payments to the Department on or before the 7th,  15th,  22nd
13    and  last  day  of  the  month during which such liability is
14    incurred. On and after October 1,  2000,  if  the  taxpayer's
15    average  monthly  tax  liability to the Department under this
16    Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the
17    Service Use Tax Act,  excluding  any  liability  for  prepaid
18    sales  tax  to  be  remitted in accordance with Section 2d of
19    this Act, was $20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete
20    calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the Department
21    each month by the 20th day of the month  next  following  the
22    month  during  which such tax liability is incurred and shall
23    make payment to the Department on or before  the  7th,  15th,
24    22nd and last day of the month during which such liability is
25    incurred.    If  the month during which such tax liability is
26    incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each  payment  shall
27    be  in  an  amount  equal  to  1/4  of  the taxpayer's actual
28    liability for the month or an amount set  by  the  Department
29    not  to  exceed  1/4  of the average monthly liability of the
30    taxpayer to the  Department  for  the  preceding  4  complete
31    calendar  quarters  (excluding the month of highest liability
32    and the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter  period).
33    If  the  month  during  which  such tax liability is incurred
34    begins on or after January 1, 1985 and prior  to  January  1,

 2    the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the
 3    taxpayer's liability for  the  same  calendar  month  of  the
 4    preceding year.  If the month during which such tax liability
 5    is  incurred  begins on or after January 1, 1987 and prior to
 6    January 1, 1988, each payment shall be in an amount equal  to
 7    22.5%  of  the  taxpayer's  actual liability for the month or
 8    26.25% of the taxpayer's  liability  for  the  same  calendar
 9    month  of the preceding year.  If the month during which such
10    tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1988,
11    and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or  after  January
12    1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of
13    the  taxpayer's  actual liability for the month or 25% of the
14    taxpayer's liability for  the  same  calendar  month  of  the
15    preceding  year. If the month during which such tax liability
16    is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and prior  to
17    January  1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
18    22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25%
19    of the taxpayer's liability for the same  calendar  month  of
20    the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual liability
21    for the quarter monthly reporting period.  The amount of such
22    quarter  monthly payments shall be credited against the final
23    tax liability  of  the  taxpayer's  return  for  that  month.
24    Before  October  1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
25    the making of quarter monthly payments to the  Department  by
26    taxpayers  having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000
27    or more as determined in  the  manner  provided  above  shall
28    continue  until  such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
29    the Department  during  the  preceding  4  complete  calendar
30    quarters  (excluding  the  month of highest liability and the
31    month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
32    taxpayer's average monthly liability  to  the  Department  as
33    computed  for  each  calendar  quarter  of  the  4  preceding
34    complete  calendar  quarter  period  is  less  than  $10,000.

 1    However,  if  a  taxpayer  can  show  the  Department  that a
 2    substantial change in the taxpayer's  business  has  occurred
 3    which  causes  the  taxpayer  to  anticipate that his average
 4    monthly tax liability for the reasonably  foreseeable  future
 5    will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such
 6    taxpayer  may  petition  the  Department for a change in such
 7    taxpayer's reporting status.  On and after October  1,  2000,
 8    once  applicable,  the  requirement  of the making of quarter
 9    monthly payments to the Department  by  taxpayers  having  an
10    average   monthly   tax  liability  of  $20,000  or  more  as
11    determined in the manner provided above shall continue  until
12    such  taxpayer's  average monthly liability to the Department
13    during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters  (excluding
14    the  month  of  highest  liability  and  the  month of lowest
15    liability) is less than  $19,000  or  until  such  taxpayer's
16    average  monthly  liability to the Department as computed for
17    each calendar quarter of the 4  preceding  complete  calendar
18    quarter  period is less than $20,000.  However, if a taxpayer
19    can show the Department that  a  substantial  change  in  the
20    taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to
21    anticipate  that  his  average  monthly tax liability for the
22    reasonably foreseeable future will  fall  below  the  $20,000
23    threshold  stated  above, then such taxpayer may petition the
24    Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting  status.
25    The  Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status
26    unless it finds that such change is seasonal  in  nature  and
27    not  likely  to  be  long  term.  If any such quarter monthly
28    payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required  by
29    this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
30    and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due
31    as  a  payment and the amount of such quarter monthly payment
32    actually and timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer  has
33    previously  made payments for that month to the Department in
34    excess of the minimum payments previously due as provided  in
 
                            -220-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    this  Section. The Department shall make reasonable rules and
 2    regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount  and
 3    quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other
 4    than a calendar monthly basis.
 5        The  provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
 6    2001. Without regard to whether a  taxpayer  is  required  to
 7    make   quarter  monthly  payments  as  specified  above,  any
 8    taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect
 9    and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which
10    average in excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2
11    complete calendar quarters, shall  file  a  return  with  the
12    Department  as required by Section 2f and shall make payments
13    to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd  and  last
14    day of the month during which such liability is incurred.  If
15    the  month  during which such tax liability is incurred began
16    prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act  of  1985,
17    each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
18    taxpayer's  actual  liability under Section 2d.  If the month
19    during which such tax liability  is  incurred  begins  on  or
20    after  January  1,  1986,  each payment shall be in an amount
21    equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's  actual  liability  for  the
22    month  or  27.5%  of  the  taxpayer's  liability for the same
23    calendar month of the preceding calendar year.  If the  month
24    during  which  such  tax  liability  is incurred begins on or
25    after January 1, 1987, each payment shall  be  in  an  amount
26    equal  to  22.5%  of  the taxpayer's actual liability for the
27    month or 26.25% of the  taxpayer's  liability  for  the  same
28    calendar  month  of  the  preceding year.  The amount of such
29    quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the  final
30    tax  liability  of the taxpayer's return for that month filed
31    under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may  be.   Once
32    applicable,  the requirement of the making of quarter monthly
33    payments to the Department pursuant to this  paragraph  shall
34    continue  until  such  taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
 
                            -221-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    collections during the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters
 2    is $25,000 or less.  If any such quarter monthly  payment  is
 3    not  paid at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer
 4    shall  be  liable  for  penalties  and   interest   on   such
 5    difference,  except  insofar  as  the taxpayer has previously
 6    made payments  for  that  month  in  excess  of  the  minimum
 7    payments previously due.
 8        The  provisions  of  this  paragraph  apply  on and after
 9    October 1, 2001.  Without regard to  whether  a  taxpayer  is
10    required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above,
11    any  taxpayer  who  is  required by Section 2d of this Act to
12    collect and remit prepaid taxes  and  has  collected  prepaid
13    taxes  that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the
14    preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall  file  a  return
15    with  the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make
16    payments to the Department on or before the 7th,  15th,  22nd
17    and  last  day  of  the  month  during which the liability is
18    incurred.  Each payment shall be in an amount equal to  22.5%
19    of  the  taxpayer's  actual liability for the month or 25% of
20    the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month  of  the
21    preceding  year.   The amount of the quarter monthly payments
22    shall be credited against the  final  tax  liability  of  the
23    taxpayer's  return for that month filed under this Section or
24    Section 2f,  as  the  case  may  be.   Once  applicable,  the
25    requirement  of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
26    Department pursuant to this paragraph  shall  continue  until
27    the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during
28    the  preceding  4  complete  calendar quarters (excluding the
29    month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability)
30    is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
31    liability to the Department as  computed  for  each  calendar
32    quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less
33    than  $20,000.   If  any  such quarter monthly payment is not
34    paid at the time or in  the  amount  required,  the  taxpayer
 
                            -222-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    shall   be   liable   for  penalties  and  interest  on  such
 2    difference, except insofar as  the  taxpayer  has  previously
 3    made  payments  for  that  month  in  excess  of  the minimum
 4    payments previously due.
 5        If any payment provided for in this Section  exceeds  the
 6    taxpayer's  liabilities  under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
 7    Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use  Tax  Act,  as
 8    shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
 9    requested  by  the  taxpayer,  issue to the taxpayer a credit
10    memorandum no later than 30 days after the date  of  payment.
11    The  credit  evidenced  by  such  credit  memorandum  may  be
12    assigned  by  the  taxpayer  to a similar taxpayer under this
13    Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act  or  the
14    Service  Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
15    regulations to be prescribed by the Department.  If  no  such
16    request  is made, the taxpayer may credit such excess payment
17    against tax liability subsequently  to  be  remitted  to  the
18    Department  under  this  Act,  the  Use  Tax Act, the Service
19    Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in  accordance
20    with  reasonable  rules  and  regulations  prescribed  by the
21    Department.  If the Department subsequently  determined  that
22    all  or  any part of the credit taken was not actually due to
23    the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount
24    shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the  difference  between
25    the  credit  taken  and  that actually due, and that taxpayer
26    shall  be  liable  for  penalties  and   interest   on   such
27    difference.
28        If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
29    Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
30    to  the  Department  under  this  Act for the month which the
31    taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall  issue  the
32    taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
33        Beginning  January  1,  1990,  each  month the Department
34    shall pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special  fund

 6    immediate consumption) and prescription  and  nonprescription
 7    medicines,  drugs,  medical  appliances  and  insulin,  urine
 8    testing materials, syringes and needles used by diabetics.
 9        Beginning  January  1,  1990,  each  month the Department
10    shall pay into the County and Mass Transit District  Fund,  a
11    special  fund  in the State treasury which is hereby created,
12    4% of the net revenue realized for the preceding  month  from
13    the 6.25% general rate.
14        Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall
15    pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 20% of the
16    net  revenue  realized for the preceding month from the 1.25%
17    rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.
18        Beginning January 1,  1990,  each  month  the  Department
19    shall  pay  into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net
20    revenue realized for  the  preceding  month  from  the  6.25%
21    general  rate  on  the  selling  price  of  tangible personal
22    property.
23        Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall
24    pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 80% of the net revenue
25    realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% rate  on  the
26    selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.
27        Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department
28    pursuant  to  this  Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into
29    the Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1,  1989,  2.2%
30    and  on  and  after  July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid

 7    revenue  realized for the preceding month from the 5% general
 8    rate or 0.4% of 80% of  the  net  revenue  realized  for  the
 9    preceding  month from the 6.25% general rate, as the case may
10    be, on the selling price of tangible personal property  which
11    amount  shall,  subject  to  appropriation, be distributed as
12    provided in Section 2 of the State Revenue Sharing  Act.   No
13    payments or distributions pursuant to this paragraph shall be
14    made  if  the  tax  imposed  by  this  Act on photoprocessing
15    products is declared unconstitutional,  or  if  the  proceeds
16    from  such  tax  are  unavailable for distribution because of
17    litigation.
18        Subject to payment of amounts  into  the  Build  Illinois
19    Fund, and the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund, and the
20    Local  Government Distributive Fund pursuant to the preceding

 1    6.25%  general  rate  on  the selling price of Illinois-mined
 2    coal that was sold to an eligible business.  For purposes  of
 3    this  paragraph,  the  term  "eligible  business" means a new
 4    electric generating facility certified  pursuant  to  Section
 5    605-332  of  the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs
 6    Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois.
 7        Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department

 9    State Treasury and 25% shall be reserved in a special account
10    and  used  only for the transfer to the Common School Fund as
11    part of the monthly transfer from the General Revenue Fund in

13        The Department may, upon separate  written  notice  to  a
14    taxpayer,  require  the taxpayer to prepare and file with the
15    Department on a form prescribed by the Department within  not
16    less  than  60  days  after  receipt  of the notice an annual
17    information return for the tax year specified in the  notice.
18    Such   annual  return  to  the  Department  shall  include  a
19    statement of gross receipts as shown by the  retailer's  last
20    Federal  income  tax  return.   If  the total receipts of the
21    business as reported in the Federal income tax return do  not
22    agree  with  the gross receipts reported to the Department of
23    Revenue for the same period, the retailer shall attach to his
24    annual return a schedule showing a reconciliation  of  the  2
25    amounts  and  the reasons for the difference.  The retailer's
26    annual return to the Department shall also disclose the  cost
27    of goods sold by the retailer during the year covered by such
28    return,  opening  and  closing  inventories of such goods for
29    such year, costs of goods used from stock or taken from stock
30    and given away by the  retailer  during  such  year,  payroll
31    information  of  the retailer's business during such year and
32    any additional reasonable information  which  the  Department
33    deems  would  be  helpful  in determining the accuracy of the
34    monthly, quarterly or annual returns filed by  such  retailer

 1    as provided for in this Section.
 2        If the annual information return required by this Section
 3    is  not  filed  when  and  as required, the taxpayer shall be
 4    liable as follows:
 5             (i)  Until January 1, 1994, the  taxpayer  shall  be
 6        liable  for  a  penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due
 7        from such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be
 8        covered by the annual return for each month  or  fraction
 9        of  a  month  until such return is filed as required, the
10        penalty to be assessed and collected in the  same  manner
11        as any other penalty provided for in this Act.
12             (ii)  On  and  after  January  1, 1994, the taxpayer
13        shall be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4
14        of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act.
15        The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest
16    ranking manager shall sign the annual return to  certify  the
17    accuracy  of  the information contained therein.   Any person
18    who willfully signs the annual  return  containing  false  or
19    inaccurate   information  shall  be  guilty  of  perjury  and
20    punished accordingly.  The annual return form  prescribed  by
21    the  Department  shall  include  a  warning  that  the person
22    signing the return may be liable for perjury.
23        The provisions of this Section concerning the  filing  of
24    an  annual  information return do not apply to a retailer who
25    is not required to file an income tax return with the  United
26    States Government.
27        As  soon  as  possible after the first day of each month,
28    upon  certification  of  the  Department  of   Revenue,   the
29    Comptroller  shall  order transferred and the Treasurer shall
30    transfer from the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel  Tax
31    Fund  an  amount  equal  to  1.7%  of  80% of the net revenue
32    realized under this  Act  for  the  second  preceding  month.
33    Beginning  April 1, 2000, this transfer is no longer required
34    and shall not be made.

 2    collected  by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount
 3    paid out during  that  month  as  refunds  to  taxpayers  for
 4    overpayment of liability.
 5        For  greater simplicity of administration, manufacturers,
 6    importers and wholesalers whose products are sold  at  retail
 7    in Illinois by numerous retailers, and who wish to do so, may
 8    assume  the  responsibility  for accounting and paying to the
 9    Department all tax accruing under this Act  with  respect  to
10    such  sales,  if  the  retailers who are affected do not make
11    written objection to the Department to this arrangement.
12        Any  person  who  promotes,  organizes,  provides  retail
13    selling space for concessionaires or other types  of  sellers
14    at the Illinois State Fair, DuQuoin State Fair, county fairs,
15    local  fairs, art shows, flea markets and similar exhibitions
16    or events, including any transient  merchant  as  defined  by
17    Section  2 of the Transient Merchant Act of 1987, is required
18    to file a report with the Department providing  the  name  of
19    the  merchant's  business,  the name of the person or persons
20    engaged in merchant's business,  the  permanent  address  and
21    Illinois  Retailers Occupation Tax Registration Number of the
22    merchant, the dates and  location  of  the  event  and  other
23    reasonable  information that the Department may require.  The
24    report must be filed not later than the 20th day of the month
25    next following the month during which the event  with  retail
26    sales  was  held.   Any  person  who  fails  to file a report
27    required by this Section commits a business  offense  and  is
28    subject to a fine not to exceed $250.
29        Any  person  engaged  in the business of selling tangible
30    personal property at retail as a concessionaire or other type
31    of seller at the  Illinois  State  Fair,  county  fairs,  art
32    shows, flea markets and similar exhibitions or events, or any
33    transient merchants, as defined by Section 2 of the Transient
34    Merchant  Act of 1987, may be required to make a daily report

 1    of the amount of such sales to the Department and to  make  a
 2    daily  payment of the full amount of tax due.  The Department
 3    shall impose this requirement when it finds that there  is  a
 4    significant  risk  of loss of revenue to the State at such an
 5    exhibition or event.   Such  a  finding  shall  be  based  on
 6    evidence  that  a  substantial  number  of concessionaires or
 7    other sellers who are  not  residents  of  Illinois  will  be
 8    engaging   in  the  business  of  selling  tangible  personal
 9    property at retail at  the  exhibition  or  event,  or  other
10    evidence  of  a  significant  risk  of loss of revenue to the
11    State.  The Department shall notify concessionaires and other
12    sellers affected by the imposition of this  requirement.   In
13    the   absence   of   notification   by  the  Department,  the
14    concessionaires and other sellers shall file their returns as
15    otherwise required in this Section.

26    from taxation, or is no longer  entitled  to  exemption,  the
27    Department  shall,  before  January 1 of any year, direct the
28    chief county assessment officer to assess  the  property  and
29    return  it  to  the  assessment rolls for the next assessment

11        Sec. 14-114.  Automatic increase in retirement annuity.
12        (a)  Any person receiving a retirement annuity under this
13    Article  who  retires  having attained age 60, or who retires
14    before age 60 having at least 35 years of creditable service,
15    or who retires on or after January 1, 2001 at an  age  which,
16    when  added  to  the number of years of his or her creditable
17    service, equals  at  least  85,  shall,  on  January  1  next
18    following  the first full year of retirement, have the amount
19    of the then fixed  and  payable  monthly  retirement  annuity
20    increased  3%.   Any  person  receiving  a retirement annuity
21    under this Article who retires before attainment  of  age  60
22    and  with  less  than  (i)  35 years of creditable service if
23    retirement is before January 1, 2001, or (ii) the  number  of
24    years of creditable service which, when added to the member's
25    age,  would equal 85, if retirement is on or after January 1,
26    2001,  shall  have  the  amount  of  the  fixed  and  payable
27    retirement annuity increased by 3% on the January 1 occurring
28    on or next following (1) attainment of age  60,  or  (2)  the
29    first  anniversary  of  retirement,  whichever  occurs later.
30    However, for persons who receive the  alternative  retirement
31    annuity  under  Section 14-110, references in this subsection
32    (a) to attainment of age 60  shall  be  deemed  to  refer  to
33    attainment   of   age  55.   For  a  person  receiving  early

 1    retirement incentives under Section 14-108.3 whose retirement
 2    annuity began after January 1, 1992 pursuant to an  extension
 3    granted  under  subsection  (e)  of  that  Section, the first
 4    anniversary of retirement shall be deemed to  be  January  1,
 5    1993.  For a person who retires on or after June 28, 2001 the
 6    effective date of this amendatory Act  of  the  92nd  General
 7    Assembly  and  on  or before October 1, 2001 the first day of
 8    the fourth calendar month following the month in  which  this
 9    amendatory  Act takes effect, and whose retirement annuity is
10    calculated, in whole or in  part,  under  Section  14-110  or
11    subsection   (g)   or   (h)  of  Section  14-108,  the  first
12    anniversary of retirement shall be deemed to  be  January  1,
13    2002.
14        On  each  January  1  following  the  date of the initial
15    increase  under  this  subsection,  the  employee's   monthly
16    retirement annuity shall be increased by an additional 3%.
17        Beginning January 1, 1990, all automatic annual increases
18    payable   under   this  Section  shall  be  calculated  as  a
19    percentage of the total annuity payable at the  time  of  the
20    increase,  including  previous  increases  granted under this
21    Article.
22        (b)  The provisions of subsection  (a)  of  this  Section
23    shall be applicable to an employee only if the employee makes
24    the additional contributions required after December 31, 1969
25    for  the purpose of the automatic increases for not less than
26    the equivalent of one full year. If an  employee  becomes  an
27    annuitant  before his additional contributions equal one full
28    year's contributions based on  his  salary  at  the  date  of
29    retirement, the employee may pay the necessary balance of the
30    contributions   to  the  system,  without  interest,  and  be
31    eligible  for  the  increasing  annuity  authorized  by  this
32    Section.
33        (c)  The provisions of subsection  (a)  of  this  Section
34    shall not be applicable to any annuitant who is on retirement
 
                            -263-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    on  December  31,  1969,  and  thereafter  returns  to  State
 2    service,  unless the member has established at least one year
 3    of  additional  creditable  service  following  reentry  into
 4    service.
 5        (d)  In addition to other increases which may be provided
 6    by this Section, on January 1, 1981  any  annuitant  who  was
 7    receiving  a  retirement annuity on or before January 1, 1971
 8    shall have his retirement annuity then being  paid  increased
 9    $1 per month for each year of creditable service.  On January
10    1,  1982,  any  annuitant  who  began  receiving a retirement
11    annuity  on  or  before  January  1,  1977,  shall  have  his
12    retirement annuity then being paid increased $1 per month for
13    each year of creditable service.
14        On January 1, 1987, any annuitant who began  receiving  a
15    retirement  annuity  on or before January 1, 1977, shall have
16    the monthly retirement annuity increased by an  amount  equal
17    to  8¢  per  year  of  creditable service times the number of
18    years that have elapsed since the annuity began.
19        (e)  Every person who receives the alternative retirement
20    annuity under Section 14-110 and who is eligible  to  receive
21    the  3%  increase  under  subsection  (a) on January 1, 1986,
22    shall also receive  on  that  date  a  one-time  increase  in
23    retirement  annuity  equal  to the difference between (1) his
24    actual  retirement  annuity  on  that  date,  including   any
25    increases  received  under subsection (a), and (2) the amount
26    of retirement annuity he would have received on that date  if
27    the  amendments  to  subsection (a) made by Public Act 84-162
28    had been in effect since the date of his retirement.

22    rate under subdivision (b)(3) of Section 17-116 for all years
23    of  creditable  service  earned before July 1, 1998 by making
24    the optional contribution specified in subsection (b); except
25    that a member who retires on or after July 1,  1998  with  at
26    least  30 years of creditable service at retirement qualifies
27    for the augmented rate without making any contribution  under
28    subsection  (b).   Any member who retires on or after July 1,
29    1998 and before the effective date of this amendatory Act  of
30    the   92nd  General  Assembly  with  at  least  30  years  of
31    creditable service shall be paid a  lump  sum  equal  to  the
32    amount he or she would have received under the augmented rate
33    minus  the  amount he or she actually received.  A member may
 
                            -267-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    not elect to qualify  for  the  augmented  rate  for  only  a
 2    portion  of  his or her creditable service earned before July
 3    1, 1998.
 4        (b)  The contribution shall be an amount equal to 1.0% of
 5    the member's highest salary rate in the 4 consecutive  school
 6    years  immediately prior to but not including the school year
 7    in which the application occurs, multiplied by the number  of
 8    years  of creditable service earned by the member before July
 9    1, 1998 or 20, whichever is less.  This contribution shall be
10    reduced by 1.0% of that salary rate for every 3 full years of
11    creditable service earned by the member after June 30,  1998.
12    The  contribution shall be further reduced at the rate of 25%
13    of the contribution (as reduced for service  after  June  30,
14    1998)  for each year of the member's total creditable service
15    in excess of 34 years.  The contribution  shall  not  in  any
16    event exceed 20% of that salary rate.
17        The  member  shall  pay  to  the  Fund  the amount of the
18    contribution as calculated at the time of  application  under
19    this  Section.   The  amount  of  the contribution determined
20    under this subsection shall be recalculated at  the  time  of
21    retirement,  and  if the Fund determines that the amount paid
22    by the member exceeds the recalculated amount, the Fund shall
23    refund the difference to the  member  with  regular  interest
24    from the date of payment to the date of refund.
25        The  contribution  required  by  this subsection shall be
26    paid in one of the following ways or in a combination of  the
27    following ways that does not extend over more than 5 years:
28             (i)  in  a  lump  sum  on  or  before  the  date  of
29        retirement;
30             (ii)  in  substantially  equal  installments  over a
31        period of time not to exceed 5 years, as a deduction from
32        salary in accordance with Section 17-130.2;
33             (iii)  if the member  becomes  an  annuitant  before
34        June   30,   2003,   in   substantially   equal   monthly
 
                            -268-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        installments  over a 24-month period, by a deduction from
 2        the annuitant's monthly benefit.
 3        (c)  If the member fails to make  the  full  contribution
 4    under  this  Section  in  a timely fashion, the payments made
 5    under this Section shall be refunded to the  member,  without
 6    interest.    If  the  member  dies  before  making  the  full
 7    contribution, the payments made under this Section  shall  be
 8    refunded to the member's designated beneficiary.
 9        (d)  For  purposes  of this Section and subsection (b) of
10    Section 17-116, optional creditable service established by  a
11    member shall be deemed to have been earned at the time of the
12    employment  or  other qualifying event upon which the service

23        interruptions of electric service under the plan; and
24             (6)  the   anticipated   sequence  and  duration  of
25        intentional interruptions of  electric  service  to  each
26        outage area under the plan.
27        (c)  A  local emergency energy plan ordinance may require
28    that,  when an electric utility determines it is necessary to
29    implement a  controlled  rotating  interruption  of  electric
30    service  because the demand for electricity exceeds, or is at
31    significant risk of  exceeding,  the  supply  of  electricity
32    available  to  the  electric  utility,  the  electric utility
33    notify a  designated  municipal  officer  that  the  electric
34    utility will be implementing its local emergency energy plan.

 1    The  notification  shall  be  made  pursuant  to  a procedure
 2    approved by the  municipality  after  consultation  with  the
 3    electric utility.
 4        (d)  After  providing  the  notice required in subsection
 5    (c), an electric  utility  shall  reasonably  and  separately
 6    advise  designated  municipal  officials before it implements
 7    each level or stage of the plan, which shall  include  (i)  a
 8    request for emergency help from neighboring utilities, (ii) a
 9    declaration  of  a control area emergency, and (iii) a public
10    appeal for voluntary curtailment of electricity use.
11        (e)  The electric utility must give a separate notice  to
12    a   designated   municipal   official  immediately  after  it
13    determines  that  there  will  be   a   controlled   rotating
14    interruption  of  electric  service under the local emergency
15    energy plan.  The notification must include (i) the areas  in
16    which  service  will  be  interrupted,  (ii) the sequence and
17    estimated duration of the service outage for each area, (iii)
18    the  affected  feeders,  and  (iv)  the  number  of  affected
19    customers in each area.  Whenever practical, the notification
20    shall be made at  least  2  hours  before  the  time  of  the
21    outages.   If  the  electric utility is aware that controlled
22    rotating interruptions may be required, the notification  may
23    not be made less than 30 minutes before the outages.
24        (f)  A  local emergency energy plan ordinance may provide
25    civil  penalties  for  violations  of  its  provisions.   The
26    penalties must be  permitted  under  the  Illinois  Municipal
27    Code.
28        (g)  The  notifications  required  by this Section are in
29    addition to the notification requirements of  any  applicable
30    franchise  agreement  or  ordinance  and  to the notification
31    requirements of any applicable federal or  State  law,  rule,
32    and regulation.
33        (h)  Except  for  any  penalties  or remedies that may be
34    provided in a local emergency energy plan ordinance, in  this
 
                            -279-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    Act, or in rules adopted by the Illinois Commerce Commission,
 2    nothing   in  this  Section  shall  be  construed  to  impose
 3    liability for  or prevent a utility from taking  any  actions
 4    that  are  necessary  at  any time, in any order, and with or
 5    without notice that are required to preserve the integrity of
 6    the electric utility's electrical system  and  interconnected
 7    network.
 8        (i)  Nothing  in  this  Section, a local emergency energy
 9    plan ordinance, or a local emergency energy plan creates  any
10    duty   of  a  municipality  to  any  person  or  entity.   No
11    municipality may be subject to any claim or cause  of  action
12    arising,  directly  or indirectly, from its decision to adopt
13    or to refrain from adopting a  local  emergency  energy  plan
14    ordinance.   No  municipality  may be subject to any claim or
15    cause of action arising, directly or indirectly, from any act
16    or omission under the terms of or information provided  in  a
17    local  emergency  energy  plan  filed under a local emergency
18    energy plan ordinance.

15        Sec.  11-74.4-3.   Definitions.   The  following   terms,
16    wherever used or referred to in this Division 74.4 shall have
17    the  following  respective  meanings,  unless  in  any case a
18    different meaning clearly appears from the context.
19        (a)  For any redevelopment project  area  that  has  been
20    designated  pursuant  to this Section by an ordinance adopted
21    prior to November 1, 1999 (the effective date of  Public  Act
22    91-478),  "blighted area" shall have the meaning set forth in
23    this Section prior to that date.
24        On and after November 1, 1999, "blighted area" means  any
25    improved   or   vacant   area  within  the  boundaries  of  a
26    redevelopment project area  located  within  the  territorial
27    limits of the municipality where:
28             (1)  If   improved,   industrial,   commercial,  and
29        residential buildings or improvements are detrimental  to
30        the  public  safety,  health,  or  welfare  because  of a
31        combination of 5 or more of the following  factors,  each
32        of  which  is (i) present, with that presence documented,
33        to  a  meaningful  extent  so  that  a  municipality  may
 
                            -281-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        reasonably find that the factor is clearly present within
 2        the intent of the Act  and  (ii)  reasonably  distributed
 3        throughout the improved part of the redevelopment project
 4        area:
 5                  (A)  Dilapidation.    An   advanced   state  of
 6             disrepair or neglect of  necessary  repairs  to  the
 7             primary   structural   components  of  buildings  or
 8             improvements in such a combination that a documented
 9             building condition analysis  determines  that  major
10             repair is required or the defects are so serious and
11             so extensive that the buildings must be removed.
12                  (B)  Obsolescence.  The condition or process of
13             falling   into   disuse.   Structures   have  become
14             ill-suited for the original use.
15                  (C)  Deterioration.  With respect to buildings,
16             defects including, but not limited to, major defects
17             in the secondary building components such as  doors,
18             windows,   porches,   gutters  and  downspouts,  and
19             fascia.  With respect to surface improvements,  that
20             the  condition  of roadways, alleys, curbs, gutters,
21             sidewalks, off-street parking, and  surface  storage
22             areas  evidence  deterioration,  including,  but not
23             limited to, surface cracking,  crumbling,  potholes,
24             depressions,   loose   paving  material,  and  weeds
25             protruding through paved surfaces.
26                  (D)  Presence of structures below minimum  code
27             standards.   All  structures  that  do  not meet the
28             standards of zoning,  subdivision,  building,  fire,
29             and other governmental codes applicable to property,
30             but  not  including housing and property maintenance
31             codes.
32                  (E)  Illegal use of individual structures.  The
33             use  of  structures  in  violation   of   applicable
34             federal,  State,  or  local laws, exclusive of those
 
                            -282-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             applicable  to  the  presence  of  structures  below
 2             minimum code standards.
 3                  (F)  Excessive  vacancies.   The  presence   of
 4             buildings  that are unoccupied or under-utilized and
 5             that represent an  adverse  influence  on  the  area
 6             because of the frequency, extent, or duration of the
 7             vacancies.
 8                  (G)  Lack  of  ventilation,  light, or sanitary
 9             facilities.  The absence of adequate ventilation for
10             light or air circulation in spaces or rooms  without
11             windows,  or that require the removal of dust, odor,
12             gas, smoke, or  other  noxious  airborne  materials.
13             Inadequate  natural  light and ventilation means the
14             absence of skylights or windows for interior  spaces
15             or  rooms  and  improper window sizes and amounts by
16             room  area  to  window  area   ratios.    Inadequate
17             sanitary   facilities   refers  to  the  absence  or
18             inadequacy  of  garbage   storage   and   enclosure,
19             bathroom  facilities,  hot  water  and kitchens, and
20             structural  inadequacies  preventing   ingress   and
21             egress  to  and  from  all  rooms and units within a
22             building.
23                  (H)  Inadequate  utilities.   Underground   and
24             overhead  utilities  such  as storm sewers and storm
25             drainage, sanitary sewers,  water  lines,  and  gas,
26             telephone, and electrical services that are shown to
27             be  inadequate.  Inadequate utilities are those that
28             are: (i) of insufficient capacity to serve the  uses
29             in    the    redevelopment    project   area,   (ii)
30             deteriorated, antiquated, obsolete, or in disrepair,
31             or (iii) lacking within  the  redevelopment  project
32             area.
33                  (I)  Excessive  land  coverage and overcrowding
34             of  structures  and   community   facilities.    The
 
                            -283-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             over-intensive  use  of property and the crowding of
 2             buildings and  accessory  facilities  onto  a  site.
 3             Examples   of   problem  conditions  warranting  the
 4             designation of an area as one  exhibiting  excessive
 5             land  coverage  are:  (i)  the presence of buildings
 6             either improperly situated on parcels or located  on
 7             parcels  of inadequate size and shape in relation to
 8             present-day standards of development for health  and
 9             safety  and  (ii) the presence of multiple buildings
10             on a single parcel.  For there to be  a  finding  of
11             excessive  land coverage, these parcels must exhibit
12             one   or   more   of   the   following   conditions:
13             insufficient provision for light and air  within  or
14             around buildings, increased threat of spread of fire
15             due  to  the  close  proximity of buildings, lack of
16             adequate or proper access to a public  right-of-way,
17             lack  of  reasonably required off-street parking, or
18             inadequate provision for loading and service.
19                  (J)  Deleterious  land  use  or  layout.    The
20             existence  of  incompatible  land-use relationships,
21             buildings occupied by inappropriate  mixed-uses,  or
22             uses   considered   to  be  noxious,  offensive,  or
23             unsuitable for the surrounding area.
24                  (K)  Environmental  clean-up.    The   proposed
25             redevelopment  project  area  has  incurred Illinois
26             Environmental Protection  Agency  or  United  States
27             Environmental  Protection  Agency  remediation costs
28             for,  or  a  study  conducted  by   an   independent
29             consultant   recognized   as   having  expertise  in
30             environmental remediation has determined a need for,
31             the   clean-up   of   hazardous   waste,   hazardous
32             substances, or underground storage tanks required by
33             State or federal law, provided that the  remediation
34             costs   constitute  a  material  impediment  to  the
 
                            -284-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             development or redevelopment  of  the  redevelopment
 2             project area.
 3                  (L)  Lack  of community planning.  The proposed
 4             redevelopment project area was developed prior to or
 5             without the benefit or guidance of a community plan.
 6             This means that the development  occurred  prior  to
 7             the  adoption by the municipality of a comprehensive
 8             or other community plan or that  the  plan  was  not
 9             followed  at  the  time  of  the area's development.
10             This  factor  must  be  documented  by  evidence  of
11             adverse  or  incompatible  land-use   relationships,
12             inadequate   street  layout,  improper  subdivision,
13             parcels  of  inadequate  shape  and  size  to   meet
14             contemporary   development   standards,   or   other
15             evidence   demonstrating  an  absence  of  effective
16             community planning.
17                  (M)  The total equalized assessed value of  the
18             proposed redevelopment project area has declined for
19             3  of the last 5 calendar years prior to the year in
20             which the redevelopment project area  is  designated
21             or is increasing at an annual rate that is less than
22             the  balance of the municipality for 3 of the last 5
23             calendar years for which information is available or
24             is increasing at an annual rate that  is  less  than
25             the  Consumer  Price  Index  for All Urban Consumers
26             published by the United States Department  of  Labor
27             or  successor  agency  for  3 of the last 5 calendar
28             years prior to the year in which  the  redevelopment
29             project area is designated.
30             (2)  If    vacant,   the   sound   growth   of   the
31        redevelopment project area is impaired by  a  combination
32        of  2  or more of the following factors, each of which is
33        (i)  present,  with  that  presence  documented,   to   a
34        meaningful  extent  so that a municipality may reasonably
 
                            -285-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        find that the factor is clearly present within the intent
 2        of the Act and (ii) reasonably distributed throughout the
 3        vacant part of the redevelopment project area to which it
 4        pertains:
 5                  (A)  Obsolete  platting  of  vacant  land  that
 6             results in parcels of  limited  or  narrow  size  or
 7             configurations of parcels of irregular size or shape
 8             that  would  be  difficult  to  develop on a planned
 9             basis and in a manner compatible  with  contemporary
10             standards  and requirements, or platting that failed
11             to create rights-of-ways for streets  or  alleys  or
12             that  created  inadequate  right-of-way  widths  for
13             streets,  alleys,  or  other public rights-of-way or
14             that omitted easements for public utilities.
15                  (B)  Diversity  of  ownership  of  parcels   of
16             vacant land sufficient in number to retard or impede
17             the ability to assemble the land for development.
18                  (C)  Tax  and  special assessment delinquencies
19             exist or the property has been the  subject  of  tax
20             sales  under the Property Tax Code within the last 5
21             years.
22                  (D)  Deterioration  of   structures   or   site
23             improvements  in  neighboring  areas adjacent to the
24             vacant land.
25                  (E)  The    area    has    incurred    Illinois
26             Environmental Protection  Agency  or  United  States
27             Environmental  Protection  Agency  remediation costs
28             for,  or  a  study  conducted  by   an   independent
29             consultant   recognized   as   having  expertise  in
30             environmental remediation has determined a need for,
31             the   clean-up   of   hazardous   waste,   hazardous
32             substances, or underground storage tanks required by
33             State or federal law, provided that the  remediation
34             costs   constitute  a  material  impediment  to  the
 
                            -286-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             development or redevelopment  of  the  redevelopment
 2             project area.
 3                  (F)  The  total equalized assessed value of the
 4             proposed redevelopment project area has declined for
 5             3 of the last 5 calendar years prior to the year  in

 7             or is increasing at an annual rate that is less than
 8             the balance of the municipality for 3 of the last  5
 9             calendar years for which information is available or
10             is  increasing  at  an annual rate that is less than
11             the Consumer Price Index  for  All  Urban  Consumers

13             or successor agency for 3 of  the  last  5  calendar
14             years  prior  to the year in which the redevelopment
15             project area is designated.
16             (3)  If   vacant,   the   sound   growth   of    the
17        redevelopment  project  area  is  impaired  by one of the
18        following factors that (i) is present, with that presence
19        documented, to a meaningful extent so that a municipality
20        may reasonably find that the factor  is  clearly  present
21        within  the  intent  of  the  Act  and (ii) is reasonably
22        distributed   throughout   the   vacant   part   of   the
23        redevelopment project area to which it pertains:
24                  (A)  The area consists of one  or  more  unused
25             quarries, mines, or strip mine ponds.
26                  (B)  The  area  consists  of  unused railyards,
27             rail tracks, or railroad rights-of-way.
28                  (C)  The area, prior  to  its  designation,  is
29             subject  to  chronic flooding that adversely impacts
30             on real property in  the  area  as  certified  by  a
31             registered   professional  engineer  or  appropriate
32             regulatory agency.
33                  (D)  The area consists of an unused or  illegal
34             disposal  site  containing  earth,  stone,  building

 1             debris,  or similar materials that were removed from
 2             construction,  demolition,  excavation,  or   dredge
 3             sites.
 4                  (E)  Prior to November 1, 1999, the area is not
 5             less  than  50  nor  more  than 100 acres and 75% of
 6             which is vacant (notwithstanding that the  area  has
 7             been   used  for  commercial  agricultural  purposes
 8             within 5 years  prior  to  the  designation  of  the
 9             redevelopment  project  area), and the area meets at
10             least one of the factors itemized in  paragraph  (1)
11             of  this subsection, the area has been designated as
12             a  town  or   village   center   by   ordinance   or
13             comprehensive plan adopted prior to January 1, 1982,
14             and  the  area  has  not  been  developed  for  that
15             designated purpose.
16                  (F)  The  area qualified as a blighted improved
17             area immediately prior to  becoming  vacant,  unless
18             there has been substantial private investment in the
19             immediately surrounding area.
20        (b)  For  any  redevelopment  project  area that has been
21    designated pursuant to this Section by an  ordinance  adopted
22    prior  to  November 1, 1999 (the effective date of Public Act
23    91-478), "conservation area" shall have the meaning set forth
24    in this Section prior to that date.
25        On and after November 1, 1999, "conservation area"  means
26    any  improved  area  within the boundaries of a redevelopment
27    project area located within the  territorial  limits  of  the
28    municipality  in  which  50% or more of the structures in the
29    area have an age of 35 years or more. Such an   area  is  not
30    yet a blighted area but because of a combination of 3 or more
31    of the following factors is detrimental to the public safety,
32    health,  morals  or  welfare  and  such  an area may become a
33    blighted area:
34             (1)  Dilapidation.  An advanced state  of  disrepair
 
                            -288-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        or neglect of necessary repairs to the primary structural
 2        components   of  buildings  or  improvements  in  such  a
 3        combination that a documented building condition analysis
 4        determines that major repair is required or  the  defects
 5        are  so  serious and so extensive that the buildings must
 6        be removed.
 7             (2)  Obsolescence.   The  condition  or  process  of
 8        falling into disuse. Structures  have  become  ill-suited
 9        for the original use.
10             (3)  Deterioration.    With  respect  to  buildings,
11        defects including, but not limited to, major  defects  in
12        the secondary building components such as doors, windows,
13        porches,   gutters  and  downspouts,  and  fascia.   With
14        respect to surface improvements, that  the  condition  of
15        roadways,  alleys,  curbs, gutters, sidewalks, off-street
16        parking,   and    surface    storage    areas    evidence
17        deterioration,  including,  but  not  limited to, surface
18        cracking, crumbling, potholes, depressions, loose  paving
19        material, and weeds protruding through paved surfaces.
20             (4)  Presence   of  structures  below  minimum  code
21        standards.  All structures that do not meet the standards
22        of  zoning,  subdivision,  building,  fire,   and   other
23        governmental   codes  applicable  to  property,  but  not
24        including housing and property maintenance codes.
25             (5)  Illegal use of individual structures.  The  use
26        of  structures in violation of applicable federal, State,
27        or local laws,  exclusive  of  those  applicable  to  the
28        presence of structures below minimum code standards.
29             (6)  Excessive vacancies.  The presence of buildings
30        that  are unoccupied or under-utilized and that represent
31        an  adverse  influence  on  the  area  because   of   the
32        frequency, extent, or duration of the vacancies.
33             (7)  Lack   of   ventilation,   light,  or  sanitary
34        facilities.  The  absence  of  adequate  ventilation  for
 
                            -289-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        light  or  air  circulation  in  spaces  or rooms without
 2        windows, or that require the removal of dust, odor,  gas,
 3        smoke,  or  other noxious airborne materials.  Inadequate
 4        natural  light  and  ventilation  means  the  absence  or
 5        inadequacy of skylights or windows for interior spaces or
 6        rooms and improper window sizes and amounts by room  area
 7        to  window  area  ratios.  Inadequate sanitary facilities
 8        refers to the absence or inadequacy  of  garbage  storage
 9        and   enclosure,   bathroom  facilities,  hot  water  and
10        kitchens, and structural inadequacies preventing  ingress
11        and  egress  to  and  from  all  rooms and units within a
12        building.
13             (8)  Inadequate utilities.  Underground and overhead
14        utilities  such  as  storm  sewers  and  storm  drainage,
15        sanitary sewers, water lines,  and  gas,  telephone,  and
16        electrical  services  that  are  shown  to be inadequate.
17        Inadequate  utilities  are  those  that   are:   (i)   of
18        insufficient   capacity   to   serve   the  uses  in  the
19        redevelopment   project    area,    (ii)    deteriorated,
20        antiquated,  obsolete,  or in disrepair, or (iii) lacking
21        within the redevelopment project area.
22             (9)  Excessive land  coverage  and  overcrowding  of
23        structures  and community facilities.  The over-intensive
24        use  of  property  and  the  crowding  of  buildings  and
25        accessory facilities onto a site.   Examples  of  problem
26        conditions  warranting  the designation of an area as one
27        exhibiting excessive land coverage are: the  presence  of
28        buildings   either  improperly  situated  on  parcels  or
29        located on  parcels  of  inadequate  size  and  shape  in
30        relation  to  present-day  standards  of  development for
31        health and safety and the presence of multiple  buildings
32        on  a  single  parcel.   For  there  to  be  a finding of
33        excessive land coverage, these parcels must  exhibit  one
34        or   more   of  the  following  conditions:  insufficient
 
                            -290-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        provision for light and air within or  around  buildings,
 2        increased  threat  of  spread  of  fire  due to the close
 3        proximity of buildings, lack of adequate or proper access
 4        to a public right-of-way,  lack  of  reasonably  required
 5        off-street  parking,  or inadequate provision for loading
 6        and service.
 7             (10)  Deleterious land use or layout.  The existence
 8        of   incompatible   land-use   relationships,   buildings
 9        occupied by inappropriate mixed-uses, or uses  considered
10        to   be   noxious,   offensive,  or  unsuitable  for  the
11        surrounding area.
12             (11)  Lack  of  community  planning.   The  proposed
13        redevelopment project area  was  developed  prior  to  or
14        without the benefit or guidance of a community plan. This
15        means that the development occurred prior to the adoption
16        by the municipality of a comprehensive or other community
17        plan or that the plan was not followed at the time of the
18        area's  development.   This  factor must be documented by
19        evidence   of   adverse    or    incompatible    land-use
20        relationships,   inadequate   street   layout,   improper
21        subdivision, parcels of inadequate shape and size to meet
22        contemporary  development  standards,  or  other evidence
23        demonstrating an absence of effective community planning.
24             (12)  The area has incurred  Illinois  Environmental
25        Protection   Agency   or   United   States  Environmental
26        Protection Agency  remediation  costs  for,  or  a  study
27        conducted  by  an  independent  consultant  recognized as
28        having  expertise  in   environmental   remediation   has
29        determined  a  need for, the clean-up of hazardous waste,
30        hazardous  substances,  or  underground   storage   tanks
31        required  by  State  or  federal  law,  provided that the
32        remediation costs constitute a material impediment to the
33        development or redevelopment of the redevelopment project
34        area.

 2        proposed redevelopment project area has declined for 3 of
 3        the  last  5  calendar  years  for  which  information is
 4        available or is increasing at an annual rate that is less
 5        than the balance of the municipality for 3 of the last  5

24    labor surplus municipality or  within  1  1/2  miles  of  the
25    territorial  limits of a municipality that is a labor surplus
26    municipality if the area  is  annexed  to  the  municipality;
27    which  area  is zoned as industrial no later than at the time
28    the municipality by ordinance  designates  the  redevelopment
29    project  area,  and  which  area  includes  both  vacant land
30    suitable for use as an industrial park and a blighted area or
31    conservation area contiguous to such vacant land.
32        (e)  "Labor surplus municipality" means a municipality in

 4    Department  of  Labor  Bureau of Labor Statistics publication
 5    entitled  "The  Employment  Situation"   or   its   successor
 6    publication.   For   the   purpose  of  this  subsection,  if
 7    unemployment rate statistics for  the  municipality  are  not
 8    available, the unemployment rate in the municipality shall be
 9    deemed  to  be  the  same  as  the  unemployment  rate in the

11        (f)  "Municipality"  shall  mean  a  city,   village   or
12    incorporated town.
13        (g)  "Initial  Sales  Tax  Amounts"  means  the amount of

34    area  or  State Sales Tax Boundary, as the case may be, exist
 
                            -293-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    over and above the aggregate amount of taxes as certified  by
 2    the  Illinois  Department  of  Revenue  and  paid  under  the
 3    Municipal  Retailers'  Occupation  Tax  Act and the Municipal
 4    Service Occupation Tax Act by retailers  and  servicemen,  on

 7    the  case  may  be,  during  the base year which shall be the
 8    calendar year immediately prior to  the  year  in  which  the
 9    municipality adopted tax increment allocation financing.  For
10    purposes  of computing the aggregate amount of such taxes for
11    base years occurring prior to 1985, the Department of Revenue
12    shall determine the Initial Sales Tax Amounts for such  taxes
13    and  deduct  therefrom an amount equal to 4% of the aggregate
14    amount of taxes per year for each year the base year is prior

25    Revised  Initial  Sales  Tax  Amounts   for   the   Municipal
26    Retailers'  Occupation  Tax  Act  and  the  Municipal Service
27    Occupation Tax Act.  For the State  Fiscal  Year  1989,  this
28    calculation shall be made by utilizing the calendar year 1987
29    to  determine the tax amounts received.  For the State Fiscal
30    Year 1990, this calculation shall be made  by  utilizing  the
31    period  from  January  1,  1988, until September 30, 1988, to
32    determine  the  tax  amounts  received  from  retailers   and
33    servicemen  pursuant  to  the Municipal Retailers' Occupation
34    Tax and the Municipal Service Occupation Tax Act, which shall
 
                            -294-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    have  deducted  therefrom  nine-twelfths  of  the   certified
 2    Initial  Sales  Tax  Amounts,  the Adjusted Initial Sales Tax
 3    Amounts  or  the  Revised  Initial  Sales  Tax   Amounts   as
 4    appropriate. For the State Fiscal Year 1991, this calculation
 5    shall  be  made by utilizing the period from October 1, 1988,
 6    to June 30, 1989, to determine the tax amounts received  from
 7    retailers and servicemen pursuant to the Municipal Retailers'
 8    Occupation  Tax  and the Municipal Service Occupation Tax Act
 9    which shall have  deducted  therefrom  nine-twelfths  of  the
10    certified  Initial  Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales
11    Tax Amounts or the  Revised  Initial  Sales  Tax  Amounts  as
12    appropriate.  For  every  State  Fiscal  Year thereafter, the
13    applicable period shall be the 12 months beginning July 1 and
14    ending June 30 to determine the tax  amounts  received  which
15    shall have deducted therefrom the certified Initial Sales Tax
16    Amounts,  the  Adjusted  Initial  Sales  Tax  Amounts  or the
17    Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts, as the case may be.
18        (i)  "Net State Sales Tax Increment" means the sum of the
19    following: (a) 80% of the first $100,000 of State  Sales  Tax
20    Increment   annually  generated  within  a  State  Sales  Tax
21    Boundary; (b) 60% of the amount in excess of $100,000 but not
22    exceeding $500,000 of  State  Sales  Tax  Increment  annually
23    generated  within  a State Sales Tax Boundary; and (c) 40% of
24    all  amounts  in  excess  of  $500,000  of  State  Sales  Tax
25    Increment  annually  generated  within  a  State  Sales   Tax
26    Boundary.   If,  however,  a  municipality  established a tax
27    increment financing district in a county with a population in
28    excess  of  3,000,000  before  January  1,  1986,   and   the
29    municipality  entered  into  a contract or issued bonds after
30    January 1, 1986, but before December  31,  1986,  to  finance
31    redevelopment   project   costs  within  a  State  Sales  Tax
32    Boundary, then the Net State Sales Tax Increment  means,  for
33    the  fiscal  years  beginning July 1, 1990, and July 1, 1991,
34    100% of the State  Sales  Tax  Increment  annually  generated

 1    within  a  State  Sales Tax Boundary; and notwithstanding any
 2    other provision of this  Act,  for  those  fiscal  years  the
 3    Department    of    Revenue   shall   distribute   to   those

 5    before   any  distribution  to  any  other  municipality  and
 6    regardless of whether or not those other municipalities  will
 7    receive  100%  of  their  Net State Sales Tax Increment.  For
 8    Fiscal Year 1999, and every year thereafter  until  the  year
 9    2007,  for  any  municipality  that  has  not  entered into a
10    contract or has not issued bonds prior to  June  1,  1988  to

13    calculated as follows: By multiplying the Net State Sales Tax
14    Increment  by  90%  in the State Fiscal Year 1999; 80% in the
15    State Fiscal Year 2000; 70% in the State  Fiscal  Year  2001;

25    project  in a redevelopment project area before June 1, 1988,
26    shall continue to receive their  proportional  share  of  the
27    Illinois  Tax  Increment  Fund distribution until the date on
28    which the redevelopment project is completed  or  terminated.
29    If,  however,  a municipality that issued bonds in connection
30    with a redevelopment project in a redevelopment project  area
31    within  the  State  Sales Tax Boundary prior to July 29, 1991
32    retires the bonds prior to June 30, 2007  or  a  municipality

 1    June  1, 1988 completes the contracts prior to June 30, 2007,
 2    then so long as the redevelopment project is not completed or

 4    calculated, beginning on the date  on  which  the  bonds  are
 5    retired  or  the  contracts  are  completed,  as follows:  By
 6    multiplying the Net State Sales Tax Increment by 60%  in  the
 7    State  Fiscal  Year  2002; 50% in the State Fiscal Year 2003;
 8    40% in the State Fiscal Year 2004; 30% in  the  State  Fiscal
 9    Year  2005; 20% in the State Fiscal Year 2006; and 10% in the

21    other than residential customers, of  properties  within  the
22    redevelopment  project area during the base year, which shall

15        an affirmative action plan;

25             (3.5)  The  municipality  finds,  in  the case of an
26        industrial  park  conservation  area,   also   that   the
27        municipality is a labor surplus municipality and that the
28        implementation  of  the  redevelopment  plan  will reduce
29        unemployment, create new jobs and by the provision of new
30        facilities enhance the tax base of the  taxing  districts
31        that extend into the redevelopment project area.
32             (4)  If  any incremental revenues are being utilized
33        under  Section  8(a)(1)  or  8(a)(2)  of  this   Act   in
34        redevelopment  project  areas approved by ordinance after
 
                            -304-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        January 1, 1986, the municipality  finds:  (a)  that  the
 2        redevelopment   project  area  would  not  reasonably  be
 3        developed without the use of such  incremental  revenues,
 4        and   (b)   that   such   incremental  revenues  will  be
 5        exclusively  utilized  for   the   development   of   the
 6        redevelopment project area.
 7             (5)  On   and   after   November  1,  1999,  if  the
 8        redevelopment plan will not result in displacement of  10
 9        or   more   residents   from  inhabited  units,  and  the
10        municipality certifies in the plan that such displacement
11        will not result from the plan,  a  housing  impact  study
12        need  not  be  performed.  If, however, the redevelopment
13        plan would result in the displacement of  residents  from
14        10  or  more  inhabited  residential  units,  or  if  the
15        redevelopment  project area contains 75 or more inhabited
16        residential units and no certification is made, then  the
17        municipality  shall  prepare,  as  part  of  the separate
18        feasibility report required by subsection (a) of  Section
19        11-74.4-5, a housing impact study.
20             Part I of the housing impact study shall include (i)
21        data  as  to  whether  the  residential  units are single
22        family or multi-family units, (ii) the number and type of
23        rooms within the units, if that information is available,
24        (iii) whether the units are inhabited or uninhabited,  as
25        determined not less than 45 days before the date that the
26        ordinance  or  resolution  required  by subsection (a) of
27        Section 11-74.4-5 is passed, and  (iv)  data  as  to  the
28        racial  and  ethnic  composition  of the residents in the
29        inhabited residential units.  The data requirement as  to
30        the racial and ethnic composition of the residents in the
31        inhabited  residential  units shall be deemed to be fully
32        satisfied by data from the most recent federal census.
33             Part II of the housing impact study  shall  identify
34        the   inhabited   residential   units   in  the  proposed
 
                            -305-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        redevelopment project area that  are  to  be  or  may  be
 2        removed.   If  inhabited  residential  units  are  to  be
 3        removed, then the housing impact study shall identify (i)
 4        the  number  and location of those units that will or may
 5        be removed, (ii) the municipality's plans for  relocation
 6        assistance   for   those   residents   in   the  proposed
 7        redevelopment project area whose  residences  are  to  be
 8        removed,  (iii)  the  availability of replacement housing
 9        for those residents whose residences are to  be  removed,
10        and  shall  identify  the type, location, and cost of the
11        housing, and (iv)  the  type  and  extent  of  relocation
12        assistance to be provided.
13             (6)  On  and  after  November  1,  1999, the housing
14        impact  study  required  by  paragraph   (5)   shall   be
15        incorporated   in   the   redevelopment   plan   for  the
16        redevelopment project area.
17             (7)  On and after November 1, 1999, no redevelopment
18        plan shall be adopted, nor an existing plan amended,  nor
19        shall  residential housing that is occupied by households
20        of low-income and very low-income  persons  in  currently
21        existing  redevelopment  project  areas  be removed after
22        November 1, 1999 unless the redevelopment plan  provides,
23        with  respect  to  inhabited housing units that are to be
24        removed for households of low-income and very  low-income
25        persons, affordable housing and relocation assistance not
26        less  than that which would be provided under the federal
27        Uniform   Relocation   Assistance   and   Real   Property
28        Acquisition Policies Act  of  1970  and  the  regulations
29        under  that  Act,  including  the  eligibility  criteria.
30        Affordable  housing  may  be  either  existing  or  newly
31        constructed  housing. For purposes of this paragraph (7),
32        "low-income households",  "very  low-income  households",
33        and  "affordable  housing" have the meanings set forth in
34        the Illinois Affordable  Housing  Act.  The  municipality
 
                            -306-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        shall  make  a  good  faith  effort  to  ensure that this
 2        affordable  housing   is   located   in   or   near   the
 3        redevelopment project area within the municipality.
 4             (8)  On  and  after  November 1, 1999, if, after the
 5        adoption of the redevelopment plan for the  redevelopment
 6        project  area,  any  municipality  desires  to  amend its
 7        redevelopment plan to remove more  inhabited  residential
 8        units  than specified in its original redevelopment plan,
 9        that increase in the number of units to be removed  shall
10        be   deemed   to  be  a  change  in  the  nature  of  the
11        redevelopment plan as  to  require  compliance  with  the
12        procedures in this Act pertaining to the initial approval
13        of a redevelopment plan.
14             (9)  For   redevelopment  project  areas  designated
15        prior to November 1, 1999, the redevelopment plan may  be
16        amended  without  further  joint  review board meeting or
17        hearing, provided that the municipality shall give notice
18        of any such changes  by  mail  to  each  affected  taxing
19        district and registrant on the interested party registry,
20        to  authorize  the  municipality  to expend tax increment
21        revenues  for  redevelopment  project  costs  defined  by
22        paragraphs (5) and (7.5), subparagraphs (E)  and  (F)  of
23        paragraph (11), and paragraph (11.5) of subsection (q) of
24        Section 11-74.4-3, so long as the changes do not increase
25        the  total  estimated redevelopment project costs set out
26        in  the  redevelopment  plan  by  more  than   5%   after
27        adjustment  for  inflation  from  the  date  the plan was
28        adopted.
29        (o)  "Redevelopment project" means any public and private
30    development project in furtherance of  the  objectives  of  a
31    redevelopment  plan.  On  and  after  November  1,  1999 (the
32    effective date of Public Act 91-478), no  redevelopment  plan
33    may  be  approved or amended that includes the development of
34    vacant land (i) with a golf course and related clubhouse  and

 7    hunting.
 8        (p)  "Redevelopment   project   area"   means   an   area
 9    designated by the municipality, which  is  not  less  in  the
10    aggregate  than  1  1/2  acres  and  in  respect to which the
11    municipality has made a finding that there  exist  conditions
12    which  cause  the area to be classified as an industrial park
13    conservation area or a blighted area or a conservation  area,
14    or  a  combination  of  both  blighted areas and conservation
15    areas.
16        (q)  "Redevelopment project costs" mean and  include  the
17    sum  total  of  all reasonable or necessary costs incurred or
18    estimated to be incurred, and any such costs incidental to  a
19    redevelopment  plan  and a redevelopment project.  Such costs
20    include, without limitation, the following:

24        not limited to staff and professional service  costs  for
25        architectural, engineering, legal, financial, planning or
26        other  services,  provided  however  that  no charges for
27        professional services may be based on a percentage of the
28        tax  increment  collected;  except  that  on  and   after
29        November  1,  1999  (the  effective  date  of  Public Act
30        91-478),  no   contracts   for   professional   services,
31        excluding  architectural and engineering services, may be
32        entered into if the terms of the contract extend beyond a
33        period of 3 years.  In addition,  "redevelopment  project
34        costs"   shall   not  include  lobbying  expenses.  After

17        costs   shall   not   include   general    overhead    or
18        administrative costs of the municipality that would still
19        have   been   incurred   by   the   municipality  if  the

21        area or approved a redevelopment plan;
22             (1.6)  The   cost  of  marketing  sites  within  the

 1        buildings, fixtures, and leasehold improvements; and  the
 2        cost of replacing an existing public building if pursuant
 3        to  the  implementation  of  a  redevelopment project the

 4        thereafter  and  including  reasonable  reserves  related
 5        thereto;
 6             (7)  To  the  extent  the  municipality  by  written
 7        agreement accepts and approves the same, all or a portion
 8        of  a  taxing district's capital costs resulting from the
 9        redevelopment  project  necessarily  incurred  or  to  be
10        incurred within a taxing district in furtherance  of  the
11        objectives of the redevelopment plan and project.
12             (7.5)  For  redevelopment  project  areas designated
13        (or  redevelopment  project  areas  amended  to  add   or

 7             reimbursement   of   increased   costs   under  this
 8             paragraph (7.5):
 9                       (i)  no   increased   costs    shall    be
10                  reimbursed unless the school district certifies
11                  that  each  of  the  schools  affected  by  the
12                  assisted  housing  project  is  at  or over its
13                  student capacity;
14                       (ii)  the amount  reimburseable  shall  be
15                  reduced by the value of any land donated to the

23                  instruments, or the terms of any  redevelopment
24                  agreement.
25             Any  school  district  seeking  payment  under  this
26             paragraph  (7.5)  shall,  after  July  1  and before
27             September 30 of each year, provide the  municipality
28             with  reasonable  evidence  to support its claim for
29             reimbursement  before  the  municipality  shall   be
30             required  to  approve  or  make  the  payment to the
31             school district.  If the school  district  fails  to
32             provide  the  information  during this period in any
33             year, it shall forfeit any  claim  to  reimbursement

 2             the   reimbursement   otherwise   required  by  this
 3             paragraph   (7.5).    By    acceptance    of    this
 4             reimbursement  the  school district waives the right
 5             to directly or  indirectly  set  aside,  modify,  or
 6             contest  in  any  manner  the  establishment  of the
 7             redevelopment project area or projects;

 9        municipality  determines  that  relocation costs shall be
10        paid or is required to make payment of  relocation  costs

12        subparagraph (7) of subsection (n);
13             (9)  Payment in lieu of taxes;
14             (10)  Costs of job  training,  retraining,  advanced

16        not limited to courses in occupational, semi-technical or
17        technical fields leading directly to employment, incurred
18        by one or more taxing districts, provided that such costs
19        (i) are related to the establishment and  maintenance  of
20        additional job training, advanced vocational education or
21        career  education  programs for persons employed or to be
22        employed by employers located in a redevelopment  project
23        area;  and  (ii)  when  incurred  by a taxing district or
24        taxing districts other than  the  municipality,  are  set
25        forth in a written agreement by or among the municipality
26        and  the  taxing  district  or  taxing  districts,  which
27        agreement   describes   the  program  to  be  undertaken,
28        including but not limited to the number of  employees  to
29        be trained, a description of the training and services to
30        be  provided,  the number and type of positions available
31        or to be available, itemized costs  of  the  program  and
32        sources of funds to pay for the same, and the term of the

 9             the special tax allocation fund established pursuant
10             to this Act;
11                  (B)  such  payments  in  any  one  year may not
12             exceed 30% of the annual interest costs incurred  by
13             the  redeveloper  with  regard  to the redevelopment
14             project during that year;
15                  (C)  if  there   are   not   sufficient   funds
16             available in the special tax allocation fund to make
17             the payment pursuant to this paragraph (11) then the
18             amounts  so  due  shall  accrue  and be payable when
19             sufficient funds are available in  the  special  tax
20             allocation fund;
21                  (D)  the  total  of such interest payments paid
22             pursuant to this Act may not exceed 30% of the total
23             (i) cost paid or incurred by the redeveloper for the
24             redevelopment  project   plus   (ii)   redevelopment
25             project  costs excluding any property assembly costs
26             and any relocation costs incurred by a  municipality
27             pursuant to this Act; and
28                  (E)  the cost limits set forth in subparagraphs
29             (B)  and (D) of paragraph (11) shall be modified for
30             the financing of rehabilitated or new housing  units
31             for   low-income   households  and  very  low-income
32             households, as defined in Section 3 of the  Illinois
33             Affordable Housing Act.  The percentage of 75% shall
34             be  substituted for 30% in subparagraphs (B) and (D)
 
                            -316-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             of paragraph (11).
 2                  (F)  Instead of the eligible costs provided  by
 3             subparagraphs  (B)  and  (D)  of  paragraph (11), as
 4             modified by this subparagraph,  and  notwithstanding
 5             any  other  provisions  of this Act to the contrary,
 6             the municipality may pay from tax increment revenues
 7             up to 50% of the cost of construction of new housing
 8             units to be occupied by  low-income  households  and
 9             very  low-income  households as defined in Section 3
10             of the Illinois Affordable Housing Act.  The cost of
11             construction of those units may be derived from  the
12             proceeds  of  bonds issued by the municipality under
13             this  Act  or  other  constitutional  or   statutory
14             authority or from other sources of municipal revenue
15             that  may  be reimbursed from tax increment revenues
16             or the proceeds  of  bonds  issued  to  finance  the
17             construction of that housing.
18                  The   eligible   costs   provided   under  this
19             subparagraph (F)  of  paragraph  (11)  shall  be  an
20             eligible  cost for the construction, renovation, and
21             rehabilitation  of  all  low  and  very   low-income
22             housing  units,  as  defined  in  Section  3  of the
23             Illinois  Affordable   Housing   Act,   within   the
24             redevelopment  project  area.   If  the low and very
25             low-income  units  are   part   of   a   residential
26             redevelopment   project   that  includes  units  not
27             affordable to low and  very  low-income  households,
28             only  the  low  and  very  low-income units shall be
29             eligible for  benefits  under  subparagraph  (F)  of
30             paragraph  (11).  The  standards for maintaining the
31             occupancy  by   low-income   households   and   very
32             low-income  households,  as  defined in Section 3 of
33             the Illinois Affordable Housing Act, of those  units
34             constructed with eligible costs made available under
 
                            -317-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             the provisions of this subparagraph (F) of paragraph
 2             (11)  shall  be established by guidelines adopted by
 3             the municipality.  The responsibility  for  annually
 4             documenting  the  initial  occupancy of the units by
 5             low-income   households    and    very    low-income
 6             households,  as defined in Section 3 of the Illinois
 7             Affordable Housing Act, shall be that  of  the  then
 8             current  owner of the property. For ownership units,
 9             the guidelines will provide, at  a  minimum,  for  a
10             reasonable  recapture of funds, or other appropriate
11             methods   designed   to   preserve   the    original
12             affordability  of  the  ownership units.  For rental
13             units, the guidelines will provide,  at  a  minimum,
14             for  the  affordability  of  rent  to  low  and very
15             low-income households.  As units  become  available,
16             they shall be rented to income-eligible tenants. The
17             municipality  may  modify these guidelines from time
18             to time; the guidelines, however, shall be in effect
19             for as long as tax increment revenue is  being  used
20             to  pay  for  costs associated with the units or for
21             the retirement of bonds issued to finance the  units
22             or  for  the life of the redevelopment project area,
23             whichever is later.
24             (11.5)  If the redevelopment project area is located
25        within a municipality with  a  population  of  more  than
26        100,000,  the  cost  of day care services for children of
27        employees from low-income families working for businesses
28        located within the redevelopment project area and all  or
29        a  portion  of  the cost of operation of day care centers
30        established by redevelopment project area  businesses  to
31        serve  employees  from  low-income  families  working  in
32        businesses  located  in  the  redevelopment project area.
33        For the purposes of this paragraph, "low-income families"
34        means families whose annual income does not exceed 80% of
 
                            -318-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        the  municipal,  county,  or  regional   median   income,
 2        adjusted  for  family  size,  as  the  annual  income and
 3        municipal,  county,  or  regional   median   income   are
 4        determined  from  time  to  time  by  the  United  States
 5        Department of Housing and Urban Development.
 6             (12)  Unless  explicitly  stated  herein the cost of
 7        construction of new privately-owned buildings  shall  not
 8        be an eligible redevelopment project cost.
 9             (13)  After  November 1, 1999 (the effective date of
10        Public Act 91-478), none  of  the  redevelopment  project
11        costs  enumerated  in  this  subsection shall be eligible
12        redevelopment project costs if those costs would  provide
13        direct  financial  support  to a retail entity initiating
14        operations  in  the  redevelopment  project  area   while
15        terminating   operations  at  another  Illinois  location
16        within 10 miles of the  redevelopment  project  area  but
17        outside  the boundaries of the redevelopment project area
18        municipality.    For   purposes   of   this    paragraph,
19        termination means a closing of a retail operation that is
20        directly  related to the opening of the same operation or
21        like retail entity owned or operated by more than 50%  of
22        the  original  ownership in a redevelopment project area,
23        but it does not mean closing  an  operation  for  reasons
24        beyond the control of the retail entity, as documented by
25        the retail entity, subject to a reasonable finding by the
26        municipality   that   the   current   location  contained
27        inadequate space, had become  economically  obsolete,  or
28        was  no  longer  a  viable  location  for the retailer or
29        serviceman.
30        If a special service area has been  established  pursuant
31    to  the  Special Service Area Tax Act or Special Service Area
32    Tax Law, then any tax increment revenues derived from the tax
33    imposed pursuant to the  Special  Service  Area  Tax  Act  or
34    Special   Service  Area  Tax  Law  may  be  used  within  the

 4    project  area  or  the  amended  redevelopment  project  area
 5    boundaries which are determined pursuant to subsection (9) of
 6    Section  11-74.4-8a  of  this Act.  The Department of Revenue
 7    shall  certify  pursuant  to  subsection   (9)   of   Section
 8    11-74.4-8a   the  appropriate  boundaries  eligible  for  the
 9    determination of State Sales Tax Increment.
10        (s)  "State Sales Tax Increment" means an amount equal to
11    the increase  in  the  aggregate  amount  of  taxes  paid  by
12    retailers and servicemen, other than retailers and servicemen
13    subject  to  the  Public  Utilities  Act,  on transactions at
14    places of business located within a State Sales Tax  Boundary
15    pursuant  to  the  Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax
16    Act, the Service Use Tax Act, and the Service Occupation  Tax
17    Act,  except  such portion of such increase that is paid into
18    the  State  and  Local  Sales  Tax  Reform  Fund,  the  Local
19    Government  Distributive  Fund,  the   Local  Government  Tax
20    Fund  and  the  County and Mass Transit District Fund, for as
21    long as  State  participation  exists,  over  and  above  the
22    Initial Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts
23    or  the  Revised  Initial Sales Tax Amounts for such taxes as
24    certified by the Department of Revenue and paid  under  those
25    Acts by retailers and servicemen on transactions at places of
26    business  located  within the State Sales Tax Boundary during
27    the base year which shall be the  calendar  year  immediately
28    prior  to  the  year  in  which  the municipality adopted tax
29    increment allocation financing, less  3.0%  of  such  amounts
30    generated  under  the  Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Use Tax
31    Act and Service Use Tax Act and the  Service  Occupation  Tax
32    Act,  which  sum  shall  be appropriated to the Department of
33    Revenue to cover its costs  of  administering  and  enforcing
34    this  Section. For purposes of computing the aggregate amount

 1    of such taxes for base years occurring  prior  to  1985,  the
 2    Department  of  Revenue  shall  compute the Initial Sales Tax
 3    Amount for such taxes and deduct therefrom an amount equal to
 4    4% of the aggregate amount of taxes per year  for  each  year

 6    deduction of 12%.  The amount so determined shall be known as
 7    the "Adjusted Initial Sales  Tax  Amount".  For  purposes  of
 8    determining  the  State Sales Tax Increment the Department of
 9    Revenue shall for each period subtract from the  tax  amounts
10    received   from  retailers  and  servicemen  on  transactions

21    retailers and servicemen, which shall have deducted therefrom
22    nine-twelfths  of  the  certified  Initial Sales Tax Amounts,
23    Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts  or  the  Revised  Initial
24    Sales  Tax  Amounts as appropriate. For the State Fiscal Year
25    1991, this calculation shall be made by utilizing the  period
26    from  October  1, 1988, until June 30, 1989, to determine the
27    tax amounts received from  retailers  and  servicemen,  which
28    shall  have deducted therefrom nine-twelfths of the certified
29    Initial State Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial  Sales  Tax
30    Amounts   or   the  Revised  Initial  Sales  Tax  Amounts  as
31    appropriate. For every  State  Fiscal  Year  thereafter,  the
32    applicable period shall be the 12 months beginning July 1 and
33    ending  on  June  30,  to  determine the tax amounts received
34    which shall have deducted  therefrom  the  certified  Initial

17    this Act, "vacant land" means any  parcel or  combination  of
18    parcels  of real property without industrial, commercial, and
19    residential buildings which has not been used for  commercial
20    agricultural purposes within 5 years prior to the designation
21    of  the  redevelopment  project  area,  unless  the parcel is
22    included in an  industrial  park  conservation  area  or  the
23    parcel  has  been subdivided; provided that if the parcel was
24    part of a larger tract that has been divided into 3  or  more
25    smaller  tracts  that  were accepted for recording during the
26    period from 1950 to 1990, then the parcel shall be deemed  to
27    have  been subdivided, and all proceedings and actions of the
28    municipality taken in that connection  with  respect  to  any
29    previously  approved or designated redevelopment project area

 9    municipality's  annual  Net  Sales  Tax  Increment  and  each
10    municipality's  annual  Net Utility Tax Increment.  The ratio
11    of the Annual Total Increment of  each  municipality  to  the

23    redevelopment project area  may  be  issued  to  provide  for
24    redevelopment  project  costs.   Such  obligations,  when  so
25    issued,  shall  be  retired  in  the  manner  provided in the
26    ordinance authorizing the issuance of such obligations by the
27    receipts of taxes levied as specified  in  Section  11-74.4-9
28    against  the  taxable  property  included  in  the  area,  by
29    revenues as specified by Section 11-74.4-8a and other revenue

 4    Revenue  of  moneys  not  required,  pledged,  earmarked,  or
 5    otherwise  designated  for  payment  and  securing   of   the
 6    obligations  and  anticipated redevelopment project costs and
 7    such excess funds shall be calculated annually and deemed  to
 8    be "surplus" funds.  In the event a municipality only applies
 9    or  pledges  a  portion  of  the  funds  in  the  special tax
10    allocation fund for the payment or  securing  of  anticipated
11    redevelopment project costs or of obligations, any such funds
12    remaining  in the special tax allocation fund after complying

23    from the State and tax incremental revenue received from  the
24    municipality,  but  not  to exceed as to each such source the
25    total incremental revenue  received  from  that  source.  The
26    County  Collector  shall  thereafter make distribution to the
27    respective taxing districts in the same manner and proportion
28    as the most recent distribution by the  county  collector  to
29    the  affected  districts  of  real  property  taxes from real
30    property in the redevelopment project area.
31        Without limiting  the  foregoing  in  this  Section,  the

23    in this Section.
24        In  the  event  the  municipality  authorizes issuance of
25    obligations  pursuant  to  the  authority  of  this  Division
26    secured by the full faith and  credit  of  the  municipality,
27    which  obligations  are  other  than obligations which may be

 2    accompanied by a notice of (1) the specific number of  voters
 3    required  to  sign  a petition requesting the question of the
 4    issuance  of  such  obligations  or  pledging  taxes  to   be
 5    submitted  to  the  electors;  (2)  the  time  in  which such
 6    petition must be filed; and (3) the date of  the  prospective
 7    referendum.   The  municipal  clerk  shall provide a petition
 8    form to any individual requesting one.
 9        If no petition is filed  with  the  municipal  clerk,  as
10    hereinafter  provided  in  this Section, within 30 days after
11    the publication of the ordinance, the ordinance shall  be  in
12    effect.   But,  if  within  that  30 day period a petition is
13    filed with the municipal clerk, signed  by  electors  in  the
14    municipality   numbering   10%  or  more  of  the  number  of
15    registered  voters  in  the  municipality,  asking  that  the
16    question of issuing obligations using full faith  and  credit

18    redevelopment project costs, or of  pledging  taxes  for  the
19    payment  of  such  obligations,  or both, be submitted to the
20    electors of the municipality, the  corporate  authorities  of
21    the  municipality shall call a special election in the manner
22    provided by law to vote upon that question, or, if a general,

24    not  less  than  30  or more than  90 days from the date such
25    petition is filed, shall submit  the  question  at  the  next
26    general, State or municipal election.  If it appears upon the
27    canvass  of  the election by the corporate authorities that a
28    majority of electors voting upon the question voted in  favor
29    thereof,  the ordinance shall be in effect, but if a majority
30    of the electors voting upon the question  are  not  in  favor
31    thereof, the ordinance shall not take effect.
32        The  ordinance  authorizing  the  obligations may provide
33    that the obligations shall contain a recital  that  they  are

 5    faith   and   credit   of  the  municipality,  the  ordinance
 6    authorizing the obligations may  provide  for  the  levy  and
 7    collection  of  a direct annual tax upon all taxable property
 8    within the  municipality  sufficient  to  pay  the  principal
 9    thereof and interest thereon as it matures, which levy may be
10    in  addition  to  and  exclusive  of the maximum of all other
11    taxes authorized to be  levied  by  the  municipality,  which
12    levy, however, shall be abated to the extent that monies from
13    other  sources  are  available for payment of the obligations
14    and the municipality certifies  the  amount  of  said  monies
15    available to the county clerk.
16        A  certified  copy  of such ordinance shall be filed with
17    the county clerk of each county in which any portion  of  the
18    municipality  is situated, and shall constitute the authority
19    for the extension and collection of the taxes to be deposited

19        Section 36.  The Regional Transportation Authority Act is
20    amended by changing Section 4.03 as follows:

21        (70 ILCS 3615/4.03) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 704.03)
22        Sec. 4.03.  Taxes.
23        (a)  In order to carry out any of the powers or  purposes
24    of the Authority, the Board may by ordinance adopted with the
25    concurrence of 9 of the then Directors, impose throughout the
26    metropolitan  region any or all of the taxes provided in this
27    Section. Except as otherwise  provided  in  this  Act,  taxes
28    imposed  under  this  Section  and  civil  penalties  imposed
29    incident thereto shall be collected and enforced by the State
30    Department of Revenue. The Department shall have the power to
31    administer  and enforce the taxes and to determine all rights
32    for refunds for erroneous payments of the taxes.
 
                            -346-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        (b)  The Board may impose  a  public  transportation  tax
 2    upon  all  persons  engaged in the metropolitan region in the
 3    business of selling at retail motor  fuel  for  operation  of
 4    motor  vehicles  upon public highways.  The tax shall be at a
 5    rate not to exceed 5% of the gross receipts from the sales of
 6    motor fuel in the course of the business.  As  used  in  this
 7    Act,  the term "motor fuel" shall have the same meaning as in
 8    the Motor Fuel Tax  Law  Act.   The  Board  may  provide  for
 9    details of the tax.  The provisions of any tax shall conform,
10    as  closely  as  may be practicable, to the provisions of the
11    Municipal Retailers Occupation  Tax  Act,  including  without
12    limitation,  conformity  to penalties with respect to the tax
13    imposed and as to the  powers  of  the  State  Department  of
14    Revenue  to  promulgate  and  enforce  rules  and regulations
15    relating  to  the  administration  and  enforcement  of   the
16    provisions  of  the tax imposed, except that reference in the
17    Act to any municipality shall refer to the Authority and  the
18    tax  shall be imposed only with regard to receipts from sales
19    of motor fuel in the metropolitan region, at rates as limited
20    by this Section.
21        (c)  In connection with the tax imposed  under  paragraph
22    (b)  of  this  Section  the  Board  may impose a tax upon the
23    privilege of using in the metropolitan region motor fuel  for
24    the  operation  of  a motor vehicle upon public highways, the
25    tax to be at a rate not in excess of the rate of tax  imposed
26    under  paragraph  (b) of this Section.  The Board may provide
27    for details of the tax.
28        (d)  The Board may impose a  motor  vehicle  parking  tax
29    upon  the  privilege  of parking motor vehicles at off-street
30    parking facilities in the metropolitan region at which a  fee
31    is charged, and may provide for reasonable classifications in
32    and exemptions to the tax, for administration and enforcement
33    thereof  and  for  civil penalties and refunds thereunder and
34    may  provide  criminal  penalties  thereunder,  the   maximum
 
                            -347-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    penalties  not  to  exceed  the  maximum  criminal  penalties
 2    provided in the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act.  The Authority
 3    may  collect  and  enforce the tax itself or by contract with
 4    any unit  of  local  government.   The  State  Department  of
 5    Revenue  shall  have no responsibility for the collection and
 6    enforcement unless the Department agrees with  the  Authority
 7    to undertake the collection and enforcement.  As used in this
 8    paragraph,  the  term "parking facility" means a parking area
 9    or structure having parking spaces for more than  2  vehicles
10    at  which  motor vehicles are permitted to park in return for
11    an hourly, daily, or other periodic fee, whether publicly  or
12    privately  owned,  but  does  not include parking spaces on a
13    public street, the use  of  which  is  regulated  by  parking
14    meters.
15        (e)  The  Board  may  impose  a  Regional  Transportation
16    Authority  Retailers' Occupation Tax upon all persons engaged
17    in the business of  selling  tangible  personal  property  at
18    retail  in  the  metropolitan region.  In Cook County the tax
19    rate shall be 1% of the gross receipts from sales of food for
20    human consumption that is to be  consumed  off  the  premises
21    where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, soft drinks
22    and  food  that  has been prepared for immediate consumption)
23    and  prescription  and  nonprescription   medicines,   drugs,
24    medical  appliances  and  insulin,  urine  testing materials,
25    syringes and needles used by diabetics, and 3/4% of the gross
26    receipts from other taxable sales made in the course of  that
27    business.  In DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties,
28    the  tax  rate  shall  be 1/4% of the gross receipts from all
29    taxable sales made in the course of that business.   The  tax
30    imposed  under  this Section and all civil penalties that may
31    be assessed as an incident thereof  shall  be  collected  and
32    enforced  by the State Department of Revenue.  The Department
33    shall have full power to administer and enforce this Section;
34    to collect all taxes and penalties so collected in the manner
 
                            -348-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights  to  credit
 2    memoranda  arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax
 3    or  penalty  hereunder.   In  the  administration   of,   and
 4    compliance  with this Section, the Department and persons who
 5    are subject to this  Section  shall  have  the  same  rights,
 6    remedies,  privileges,  immunities, powers and duties, and be
 7    subject to the same  conditions,  restrictions,  limitations,
 8    penalties,  exclusions,  exemptions and definitions of terms,
 9    and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed  in
10    Sections  1, 1a, 1a-1, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 2 through 2-65
11    (in respect to all provisions therein other  than  the  State
12    rate  of  tax),  2c, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes
13    and penalties collected), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e,  5f,  5g,
14    5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13
15    of  the  Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the
16    Uniform Penalty and  Interest  Act,  as  fully  as  if  those
17    provisions were set forth herein.
18        Persons  subject  to  any tax imposed under the authority
19    granted in this Section may reimburse  themselves  for  their
20    seller's  tax  liability  hereunder by separately stating the
21    tax as an additional charge, which charge may  be  stated  in
22    combination  in a single amount with State taxes that sellers
23    are required to collect under the  Use  Tax  Act,  under  any
24    bracket schedules the Department may prescribe.
25        Whenever  the  Department determines that a refund should
26    be made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a
27    credit memorandum, the  Department  shall  notify  the  State
28    Comptroller,  who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the
29    amount  specified,  and  to  the   person   named,   in   the
30    notification  from  the Department.  The refund shall be paid
31    by the State Treasurer out  of  the  Regional  Transportation
32    Authority  tax  fund  established under paragraph (n) of this
33    Section.
34        If a tax is imposed under  this  subsection  (e),  a  tax
 
                            -349-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    shall  also  be imposed under subsections (f) and (g) of this
 2    Section.
 3        For the purpose of determining whether a  tax  authorized
 4    under this Section is applicable, a retail sale by a producer
 5    of  coal  or  other  mineral  mined in Illinois, is a sale at
 6    retail at the place where the coal or other mineral mined  in
 7    Illinois is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not
 8    apply  to  coal  or  other  mineral  when  it is delivered or
 9    shipped by the seller to the purchaser  at  a  point  outside
10    Illinois  so  that  the  sale  is  exempt  under  the Federal
11    Constitution as a sale in interstate or foreign commerce.
12        Nothing in this Section shall be construed  to  authorize
13    the  Regional  Transportation  Authority to impose a tax upon
14    the privilege of engaging in  any  business  that  under  the
15    Constitution of the United States may not be made the subject
16    of taxation by this State.
17        (f)  If  a  tax  has  been imposed under paragraph (e), a
18    Regional  Transportation  Authority  Service  Occupation  Tax
19    shall also be  imposed  upon  all  persons  engaged,  in  the
20    metropolitan  region  in  the  business  of  making  sales of
21    service, who as an incident to making the sales  of  service,
22    transfer  tangible  personal property within the metropolitan
23    region, either in the form of tangible personal  property  or
24    in  the  form  of  real  estate  as  an incident to a sale of
25    service.  In Cook County, the tax rate shall be:  (1)  1%  of
26    the  serviceman's  cost  price of food prepared for immediate
27    consumption and transferred incident to  a  sale  of  service
28    subject  to  the service occupation tax by an entity licensed
29    under the Hospital Licensing Act or the Nursing Home Care Act
30    that is located in the metropolitan region;  (2)  1%  of  the
31    selling  price  of  food  for human consumption that is to be
32    consumed off the  premises  where  it  is  sold  (other  than
33    alcoholic  beverages,  soft  drinks  and  food  that has been
34    prepared for  immediate  consumption)  and  prescription  and
 
                            -350-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    nonprescription  medicines,  drugs,  medical  appliances  and
 2    insulin,  urine  testing materials, syringes and needles used
 3    by diabetics; and (3) 3/4% of the selling  price  from  other
 4    taxable  sales of tangible personal property transferred.  In
 5    DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties the rate  shall
 6    be  1/4%  of  the  selling  price  of  all  tangible personal
 7    property transferred.
 8        The tax  imposed  under  this  paragraph  and  all  civil
 9    penalties  that  may be assessed as an incident thereof shall
10    be collected and enforced by the State Department of Revenue.
11    The Department  shall  have  full  power  to  administer  and
12    enforce  this  paragraph;  to collect all taxes and penalties
13    due hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties collected in
14    the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all  rights
15    to  credit  memoranda  arising  on  account  of the erroneous
16    payment of tax or penalty hereunder.  In  the  administration
17    of  and  compliance  with  this paragraph, the Department and
18    persons who are subject to this paragraph shall have the same
19    rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and  duties,
20    and   be   subject  to  the  same  conditions,  restrictions,
21    limitations,   penalties,    exclusions,    exemptions    and
22    definitions of terms, and employ the same modes of procedure,
23    as are prescribed in Sections 1a-1, 2, 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in
24    respect  to  all provisions therein other than the State rate
25    of tax), 4 (except that the reference to the State  shall  be
26    to  the  Authority), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to
27    which the tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that
28    Section 8 shall be  the  Authority),  9  (except  as  to  the
29    disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and except that
30    the returned merchandise credit for this tax may not be taken
31    against  any  State  tax),  10,  11, 12 (except the reference
32    therein to Section 2b of the Retailers' Occupation Tax  Act),
33    13  (except  that  any  reference to the State shall mean the
34    Authority), the first paragraph of Section 15, 16, 17, 18, 19
 
                            -351-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    and 20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act and Section  3-7  of
 2    the  Uniform  Penalty  and Interest Act, as fully as if those
 3    provisions were set forth herein.
 4        Persons subject to any tax imposed  under  the  authority
 5    granted  in this paragraph may reimburse themselves for their
 6    serviceman's tax liability hereunder  by  separately  stating
 7    the tax as an additional charge, that charge may be stated in
 8    combination in a single amount with State tax that servicemen
 9    are  authorized  to  collect  under  the Service Use Tax Act,
10    under any bracket schedules the Department may prescribe.
11        Whenever the Department determines that a  refund  should
12    be made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing
13    a  credit  memorandum,  the Department shall notify the State
14    Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for  the
15    amount specified, and to the person named in the notification
16    from  the  Department.  The refund shall be paid by the State
17    Treasurer out of the Regional  Transportation  Authority  tax
18    fund established under paragraph (n) of this Section.
19        Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to authorize
20    the  Authority to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging
21    in any business that under the  Constitution  of  the  United
22    States may not be made the subject of taxation by the State.
23        (g)  If a tax has been imposed under paragraph (e), a tax
24    shall  also  be  imposed  upon  the privilege of using in the
25    metropolitan region, any item of tangible  personal  property
26    that  is  purchased outside the metropolitan region at retail
27    from a retailer, and that is titled  or  registered  with  an
28    agency  of  this  State's government.  In Cook County the tax
29    rate shall be 3/4% of  the  selling  price  of  the  tangible
30    personal  property,  as "selling price" is defined in the Use
31    Tax Act.  In DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry  and  Will  counties
32    the  tax  rate  shall  be  1/4%  of  the selling price of the
33    tangible personal property, as "selling price" is defined  in
34    the  Use  Tax  Act.   The tax shall be collected from persons
 
                            -352-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    whose Illinois address for titling or  registration  purposes
 2    is  given  as being in the metropolitan region. The tax shall
 3    be collected by the Department of Revenue  for  the  Regional
 4    Transportation Authority.  The tax must be paid to the State,
 5    or  an  exemption  determination  must  be  obtained from the
 6    Department of Revenue, before the  title  or  certificate  of
 7    registration for the property may be issued. The tax or proof
 8    of  exemption  may be transmitted to the Department by way of
 9    the State agency with which, or the State officer with  whom,
10    the  tangible  personal property must be titled or registered
11    if the Department and  the  State  agency  or  State  officer
12    determine that this procedure will expedite the processing of
13    applications for title or registration.
14        The  Department  shall  have full power to administer and
15    enforce this paragraph; to collect all taxes,  penalties  and
16    interest  due  hereunder;  to dispose of taxes, penalties and
17    interest collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and to
18    determine all rights to credit memoranda or  refunds  arising
19    on  account  of  the  erroneous  payment  of  tax, penalty or
20    interest hereunder. In the administration of  and  compliance
21    with  this  paragraph,  the  Department  and  persons who are
22    subject  to  this  paragraph  shall  have  the  same  rights,
23    remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties,  and  be
24    subject  to  the  same conditions, restrictions, limitations,
25    penalties, exclusions, exemptions and  definitions  of  terms
26    and  employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in
27    Sections 2 (except the definition of "retailer maintaining  a
28    place  of  business  in  this State"), 3 through 3-80 (except
29    provisions pertaining to the State rate of  tax,  and  except
30    provisions  concerning  collection or refunding of the tax by
31    retailers), 4, 11, 12, 12a, 14, 15, 19 (except  the  portions
32    pertaining  to  claims  by  retailers  and  except  the  last
33    paragraph  concerning  refunds), 20, 21 and 22 of the Use Tax
34    Act, and are not inconsistent with this paragraph,  as  fully
 
                            -353-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    as if those provisions were set forth herein.
 2        Whenever  the  Department determines that a refund should
 3    be made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing
 4    a credit memorandum, the Department shall  notify  the  State
 5    Comptroller,  who  shall  cause the order to be drawn for the
 6    amount specified, and to the person named in the notification
 7    from the Department. The refund shall be paid  by  the  State
 8    Treasurer  out  of  the Regional Transportation Authority tax
 9    fund established under paragraph (n) of this Section.
10        (h)  The Authority may impose a replacement  vehicle  tax
11    of  $50  on  any passenger car as defined in Section 1-157 of
12    the Illinois Vehicle Code purchased within  the  metropolitan
13    region  by  or on behalf of an insurance company to replace a
14    passenger car of an insured person in settlement of  a  total
15    loss  claim.  The tax imposed may not become effective before
16    the first day of the  month  following  the  passage  of  the
17    ordinance imposing the tax and receipt of a certified copy of
18    the  ordinance  by the Department of Revenue.  The Department
19    of Revenue  shall  collect  the  tax  for  the  Authority  in
20    accordance  with  Sections  3-2002 and 3-2003 of the Illinois
21    Vehicle Code.
22        The Department shall immediately pay over  to  the  State
23    Treasurer,  ex  officio,  as  trustee,  all  taxes  collected
24    hereunder.  On or before the 25th day of each calendar month,
25    the  Department  shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller
26    the disbursement of stated sums of money  to  the  Authority.
27    The  amount  to  be paid to the Authority shall be the amount
28    collected hereunder  during  the  second  preceding  calendar
29    month  by  the  Department, less any amount determined by the
30    Department to  be  necessary  for  the  payment  of  refunds.
31    Within  10  days  after  receipt  by  the  Comptroller of the
32    disbursement certification to the Authority provided  for  in
33    this   Section   to  be  given  to  the  Comptroller  by  the
34    Department, the Comptroller shall  cause  the  orders  to  be
 
                            -354-              LRB9215370EGfg

20    of  Revenue  to  promulgate and enforce rules and regulations
21    relating  to  the  administration  and  enforcement  of   the
22    provisions  of  the  tax  imposed. The taxes shall be imposed

20    average monthly distribution during  the  preceding  calendar
21    year  (excluding  the  2  months  of lowest receipts) and the
22    allocation  shall  include  the  amount  of  average  monthly
23    distribution  from  the  Regional  Transportation   Authority

 5    any  retailers'  occupation,  use  or  service occupation tax
 6    authorized under paragraphs (e), (f) and (g) of this  Section
 7    is in effect.
 8        Any   taxes  imposed  under  the  authority  provided  in

29        Sec. 1D-1.  Block grant funding.
30        (a)  For  fiscal  year  1996   and   each   fiscal   year
31    thereafter,  the  State  Board  of Education shall award to a
32    school  district  having  a  population   exceeding   500,000
 
                            -358-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    inhabitants   a   general   education   block  grant  and  an
 2    educational services block grant, determined as  provided  in
 3    this  Section,  in  lieu  of  distributing  to  the  district
 4    separate   State   funding  for  the  programs  described  in
 5    subsections (b) and (c).  The  provisions  of  this  Section,
 6    however,  do not apply to any federal funds that the district
 7    is entitled to receive.  In accordance with  Section  2-3.32,
 8    all  block  grants are subject to an audit.  Therefore, block
 9    grant receipts and block grant expenditures shall be recorded
10    to the appropriate fund code for the designated block grant.
11        (b)  The general education block grant shall include  the
12    following programs: REI Initiative, Summer Bridges, Preschool
13    At  Risk, K-6 Comprehensive Arts, School Improvement Support,
14    Urban  Education,  Scientific   Literacy,   Substance   Abuse
15    Prevention,  Second  Language  Planning,  Staff  Development,
16    Outcomes  and  Assessment,  K-6 Reading Improvement, Truants'
17    Optional Education, Hispanic Programs, Agriculture Education,
18    Gifted Education, Parental Education, Prevention  Initiative,
19    Report   Cards,   and   Criminal  Background  Investigations.
20    Notwithstanding any other provision of law, all amounts  paid
21    under   the   general   education   block  grant  from  State
22    appropriations to a  school  district  in  a  city  having  a
23    population    exceeding    500,000   inhabitants   shall   be
24    appropriated and expended by the board of that  district  for
25    any of the programs included in the block grant or any of the
26    board's lawful purposes.
27        (c)  The  educational  services block grant shall include
28    the following programs:  Bilingual,  Regular  and  Vocational
29    Transportation,  State  Lunch  and  Free  Breakfast  Program,
30    Special  Education (Personnel, Extraordinary, Transportation,
31    Orphanage,  Private  Tuition),  Summer  School,   Educational
32    Service   Centers,   and   Administrator's   Academy.    This
33    subsection   (c)   does  not  relieve  the  district  of  its
34    obligation to provide the services required under  a  program
 
                            -359-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    that is included within the educational services block grant.
 2    It  is  the intention of the General Assembly in enacting the
 3    provisions of this subsection (c) to relieve the district  of
 4    the   administrative   burdens  that  impede  efficiency  and
 5    accompany  single-program  funding.   The  General   Assembly
 6    encourages  the  board  to pursue mandate waivers pursuant to
 7    Section 2-3.25g.
 8        (d)  For  fiscal  year  1996   and   each   fiscal   year
 9    thereafter,  the  amount of the district's block grants shall
10    be determined as follows: (i) with respect  to  each  program
11    that  is included within each block grant, the district shall
12    receive an amount equal to the same percentage of the current
13    fiscal year  appropriation  made  for  that  program  as  the
14    percentage of the appropriation received by the district from
15    the 1995 fiscal year appropriation made for that program, and
16    (ii)  the  total  amount  that  is due the district under the
17    block grant shall be the aggregate of the  amounts  that  the
18    district  is  entitled  to  receive  for the fiscal year with
19    respect to each program that is  included  within  the  block
20    grant  that  the  State  Board  of  Education shall award the
21    district under this Section for that  fiscal  year.   In  the
22    case  of  the  Summer  Bridges  program,  the  amount  of the
23    district's block grant shall be equal to 44% of the amount of
24    the current fiscal year appropriation made for that program.
25        (e)  The district is not required to file any application
26    or other claim in order to receive the block grants to  which
27    it  is  entitled  under  this  Section.    The State Board of
28    Education shall make payments to the district of amounts  due
29    under the district's block grants on a schedule determined by
30    the State Board of Education.
31        (f)  A  school  district  to  which  this Section applies
32    shall report to the State Board of Education on  its  use  of
33    the  block  grants in such form and detail as the State Board
34    of Education may specify.

 1        (g)  This paragraph provides for the treatment  of  block
 2    grants  under  Article  1C  for  purposes  of calculating the
 3    amount of block grants for a  district  under  this  Section.
 4    Those block grants under Article 1C IC are, for this purpose,
 5    treated  as  included  in the amount of appropriation for the
 6    various programs set  forth  in  paragraph  (b)  above.   The
 7    appropriation  in  each  current  fiscal  year for each block
 8    grant under Article 1C shall be treated for these purposes as
 9    appropriations for the individual program  included  in  that
10    block grant.  The proportion of each block grant so allocated
11    to  each  such program included in it shall be the proportion
12    which  the  appropriation  for  that  program  was   of   all
13    appropriations  for such purposes now in that block grant, in
14    fiscal 1995.

20        Sec. 18-8.05.  Basis for apportionment of  general  State
21    financial  aid  and  supplemental  general  State  aid to the
22    common schools for the 1998-1999 and subsequent school years.

23    (A)  General Provisions.
24        (1)  The  provisions  of  this  Section  apply   to   the
25    1998-1999 and subsequent school years.  The system of general
26    State  financial aid provided for in this Section is designed
27    to assure that, through a combination of State financial  aid
28    and  required local resources, the financial support provided
29    each pupil in Average Daily Attendance equals  or  exceeds  a
30    prescribed per pupil Foundation Level.  This formula approach
31    imputes  a  level  of per pupil Available Local Resources and
32    provides for the basis to calculate  a  per  pupil  level  of
33    general  State  financial  aid  that, when added to Available
 
                            -365-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    Local Resources, equals or exceeds the Foundation Level.  The
 2    amount of per pupil general State financial  aid  for  school
 3    districts,   in   general,  varies  in  inverse  relation  to
 4    Available Local Resources.  Per pupil amounts are based  upon
 5    each  school district's Average Daily Attendance as that term
 6    is defined in this Section.
 7        (2)  In addition to general State financial  aid,  school
 8    districts  with  specified levels or concentrations of pupils
 9    from  low  income  households   are   eligible   to   receive
10    supplemental  general  State financial aid grants as provided
11    pursuant to subsection (H). The supplemental State aid grants
12    provided for school districts under subsection (H)  shall  be
13    appropriated  for distribution to school districts as part of
14    the same line item in which the general State  financial  aid
15    of school districts is appropriated under this Section.
16        (3)  To  receive financial assistance under this Section,
17    school districts are required to file claims with  the  State
18    Board of Education, subject to the following requirements:
19             (a)  Any  school  district which fails for any given
20        school year to maintain school as required by law, or  to
21        maintain  a recognized school is not eligible to file for
22        such school year any claim upon the Common  School  Fund.
23        In  case  of  nonrecognition  of  one  or more attendance
24        centers  in  a  school   district   otherwise   operating
25        recognized  schools,  the  claim of the district shall be
26        reduced  in  the  proportion  which  the  Average   Daily
27        Attendance  in  the  attendance center or centers bear to
28        the Average Daily Attendance in the school  district.   A
29        "recognized  school"  means any public school which meets
30        the standards as established for recognition by the State
31        Board of Education.   A  school  district  or  attendance
32        center  not  having  recognition  status  at the end of a
33        school term is entitled to receive State aid payments due
34        upon  a  legal  claim  which  was  filed  while  it   was
 
                            -366-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        recognized.
 2             (b)  School district claims filed under this Section
 3        are subject to Sections 18-9, 18-10, and 18-12, except as
 4        otherwise provided in this Section.
 5             (c)  If  a  school  district  operates  a  full year
 6        school under Section 10-19.1, the general  State  aid  to
 7        the  school  district  shall  be  determined by the State
 8        Board of Education in accordance  with  this  Section  as
 9        near as may be applicable.
10             (d)  (Blank).
11        (4)  Except  as  provided in subsections (H) and (L), the
12    board of any district receiving any of  the  grants  provided
13    for  in  this  Section  may  apply those funds to any fund so
14    received  for  which  that  board  is  authorized   to   make
15    expenditures by law.
16        School  districts  are  not  required  to exert a minimum
17    Operating Tax Rate in order to qualify for  assistance  under
18    this Section.
19        (5)  As  used  in  this Section the following terms, when
20    capitalized, shall have the meaning ascribed herein:
21             (a)  "Average Daily Attendance":  A count  of  pupil
22        attendance   in  school,  averaged  as  provided  for  in
23        subsection  (C)  and  utilized  in  deriving  per   pupil
24        financial support levels.
25             (b)  "Available  Local Resources":  A computation of
26        local financial  support,  calculated  on  the  basis  of
27        Average Daily Attendance and derived as provided pursuant
28        to subsection (D).
29             (c)  "Corporate    Personal   Property   Replacement
30        Taxes":  Funds paid to local school districts pursuant to
31        "An Act in  relation  to  the  abolition  of  ad  valorem
32        personal  property  tax  and  the replacement of revenues
33        lost thereby, and amending and repealing certain Acts and
34        parts of Acts in connection therewith", certified  August
 
                            -367-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        14, 1979, as amended (Public Act 81-1st S.S.-1).
 2             (d)  "Foundation  Level":  A prescribed level of per
 3        pupil financial support as  provided  for  in  subsection
 4        (B).
 5             (e)  "Operating  Tax  Rate":   All  school  district
 6        property taxes extended for all purposes, except Bond and
 7        Interest,  Summer  School, Rent, Capital Improvement, and
 8        Vocational Education Building purposes.

 9    (B)  Foundation Level.
10        (1)  The Foundation Level is a figure established by  the
11    State  representing  the minimum level of per pupil financial
12    support that should be available to  provide  for  the  basic
13    education  of each pupil in Average Daily Attendance.  As set
14    forth in this Section, each school  district  is  assumed  to
15    exert   a  sufficient  local  taxing  effort  such  that,  in
16    combination with the aggregate of general State financial aid
17    provided the  district,  an  aggregate  of  State  and  local
18    resources  are available to meet the basic education needs of
19    pupils in the district.
20        (2)  For the 1998-1999 school year, the Foundation  Level
21    of  support  is  $4,225.   For the 1999-2000 school year, the
22    Foundation Level of support is  $4,325.   For  the  2000-2001
23    school year, the Foundation Level of support is $4,425.
24        (3)  For  the  2001-2002 school year and each school year
25    thereafter, the Foundation Level of support is $4,560 or such
26    greater amount as may be established by law  by  the  General
27    Assembly.

28    (C)  Average Daily Attendance.
29        (1)  For   purposes  of  calculating  general  State  aid
30    pursuant to  subsection  (E),  an  Average  Daily  Attendance
31    figure  shall  be  utilized.   The  Average  Daily Attendance
32    figure for formula calculation purposes shall be the  monthly
33    average  of the actual number of pupils in attendance of each
 
                            -368-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    school district, as further averaged for the best 3 months of
 2    pupil attendance for each school district.  In compiling  the
 3    figures  for  the  number  of  pupils  in  attendance, school
 4    districts  and  the  State  Board  of  Education  shall,  for
 5    purposes of general State  aid  funding,  conform  attendance
 6    figures to the requirements of subsection (F).
 7        (2)  The  Average  Daily  Attendance  figures utilized in
 8    subsection (E) shall be the requisite attendance data for the
 9    school year immediately preceding the school year  for  which
10    general  State  aid is being calculated or the average of the
11    attendance data for the 3 preceding school  years,  whichever
12    is greater.  The Average Daily Attendance figures utilized in
13    subsection (H) shall be the requisite attendance data for the
14    school  year  immediately preceding the school year for which
15    general State aid is being calculated.

16    (D)  Available Local Resources.
17        (1)  For  purposes  of  calculating  general  State   aid
18    pursuant  to  subsection  (E),  a representation of Available
19    Local Resources per  pupil,  as  that  term  is  defined  and
20    determined  in this subsection, shall be utilized.  Available
21    Local Resources per pupil shall include a  calculated  dollar
22    amount representing local school district revenues from local
23    property   taxes   and   from   Corporate  Personal  Property
24    Replacement Taxes,  expressed  on  the  basis  of  pupils  in
25    Average Daily Attendance.
26        (2)  In  determining  a  school  district's  revenue from
27    local property taxes, the  State  Board  of  Education  shall
28    utilize  the  equalized  assessed  valuation  of  all taxable
29    property of each school district as of September  30  of  the
30    previous  year.   The  equalized  assessed valuation utilized
31    shall be obtained and determined as  provided  in  subsection
32    (G).
33        (3)  For school districts maintaining grades kindergarten
34    through  12,  local  property tax revenues per pupil shall be
 
                            -369-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    calculated  as  the  product  of  the  applicable   equalized
 2    assessed  valuation for the district multiplied by 3.00%, and
 3    divided by the district's Average  Daily  Attendance  figure.
 4    For  school districts maintaining grades kindergarten through
 5    8, local property tax revenues per pupil shall be  calculated
 6    as the product of the applicable equalized assessed valuation
 7    for  the  district  multiplied  by  2.30%, and divided by the
 8    district's  Average  Daily  Attendance  figure.   For  school
 9    districts maintaining grades 9 through 12, local property tax
10    revenues per pupil shall be the applicable equalized assessed
11    valuation of the district multiplied by 1.05%, and divided by
12    the district's Average Daily Attendance figure.
13        (4)  The Corporate Personal  Property  Replacement  Taxes
14    paid to each school district during the calendar year 2 years
15    before  the  calendar  year  in  which  a school year begins,
16    divided by the  Average  Daily  Attendance  figure  for  that
17    district,  shall  be added to the local property tax revenues
18    per pupil as derived by the application  of  the  immediately
19    preceding  paragraph (3).  The sum of these per pupil figures
20    for each school district  shall  constitute  Available  Local
21    Resources  as  that term is utilized in subsection (E) in the
22    calculation of general State aid.

23    (E)  Computation of General State Aid.
24        (1)  For each school year, the amount  of  general  State
25    aid  allotted  to  a school district shall be computed by the
26    State Board of Education as provided in this subsection.
27        (2)  For any school district for  which  Available  Local
28    Resources  per  pupil  is less than the product of 0.93 times
29    the Foundation Level, general State  aid  for  that  district
30    shall  be  calculated  as  an  amount equal to the Foundation
31    Level minus Available  Local  Resources,  multiplied  by  the
32    Average Daily Attendance of the school district.
33        (3)  For  any  school  district for which Available Local
34    Resources per pupil is equal to or greater than  the  product
 
                            -370-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    of  0.93 times the Foundation Level and less than the product
 2    of 1.75 times the Foundation Level, the general State aid per
 3    pupil shall be a decimal proportion of the  Foundation  Level
 4    derived   using   a  linear  algorithm.   Under  this  linear
 5    algorithm, the calculated general State aid per  pupil  shall
 6    decline   in  direct  linear  fashion  from  0.07  times  the
 7    Foundation Level for a school district with  Available  Local
 8    Resources  equal  to the product of 0.93 times the Foundation
 9    Level, to 0.05  times  the  Foundation  Level  for  a  school
10    district  with Available Local Resources equal to the product
11    of 1.75  times  the  Foundation  Level.   The  allocation  of
12    general  State  aid  for  school  districts  subject  to this
13    paragraph 3 shall be the calculated  general  State  aid  per
14    pupil  figure  multiplied  by the Average Daily Attendance of
15    the school district.
16        (4)  For any school district for  which  Available  Local
17    Resources  per  pupil  equals  or exceeds the product of 1.75
18    times the Foundation Level, the general  State  aid  for  the
19    school  district  shall  be calculated as the product of $218
20    multiplied by the Average  Daily  Attendance  of  the  school
21    district.
22        (5)  The  amount  of  general  State  aid  allocated to a
23    school district for the 1999-2000  school  year  meeting  the
24    requirements  set  forth  in  paragraph (4) of subsection (G)
25    shall be increased by an amount equal to  the  general  State
26    aid  that  would  have  been received by the district for the
27    1998-1999 school year by utilizing the  Extension  Limitation
28    Equalized  Assessed  Valuation as calculated in paragraph (4)
29    of subsection (G) less the general State aid allotted for the
30    1998-1999 school year.  This amount shall  be  deemed  a  one
31    time  increase, and shall not affect any future general State
32    aid allocations.

33    (F)  Compilation of Average Daily Attendance.
34        (1)  Each school district shall, by July 1 of each  year,
 
                            -371-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    submit  to  the State Board of Education, on forms prescribed
 2    by the State Board of Education, attendance figures  for  the
 3    school  year  that began in the preceding calendar year.  The
 4    attendance information  so  transmitted  shall  identify  the
 5    average daily attendance figures for each month of the school
 6    year,  except  that any days of attendance in August shall be
 7    added to the month of September and any days of attendance in
 8    June shall be added to the month of May.
 9        Except as otherwise provided in  this  Section,  days  of
10    attendance  by  pupils  shall be counted only for sessions of
11    not less than 5 clock hours of  school  work  per  day  under
12    direct  supervision  of:  (i)  teachers, or (ii) non-teaching
13    personnel   or   volunteer   personnel   when   engaging   in
14    non-teaching  duties  and  supervising  in  those   instances
15    specified in subsection (a) of Section 10-22.34 and paragraph
16    10  of  Section 34-18, with pupils of legal school age and in
17    kindergarten and grades 1 through 12.
18        Days of attendance by tuition pupils shall be  accredited
19    only  to  the  districts that pay the tuition to a recognized
20    school.
21        (2)  Days of attendance by pupils of less  than  5  clock
22    hours  of school shall be subject to the following provisions
23    in the compilation of Average Daily Attendance.
24             (a)  Pupils regularly enrolled in  a  public  school
25        for  only  a part of the school day may be counted on the
26        basis of 1/6 day for every class hour of  instruction  of
27        40  minutes or more attended pursuant to such enrollment,
28        unless a pupil is enrolled in a block-schedule format  of
29        80  minutes  or  more  of  instruction, in which case the
30        pupil may be counted on the basis of  the  proportion  of
31        minutes  of school work completed each day to the minimum
32        number of minutes that school work is required to be held
33        that day.
34             (b)  Days of attendance may be  less  than  5  clock
 
                            -372-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        hours  on the opening and closing of the school term, and
 2        upon the first day of pupil attendance, if preceded by  a
 3        day  or  days  utilized  as  an  institute  or  teachers'
 4        workshop.
 5             (c)  A  session  of  4  or  more  clock hours may be
 6        counted as a day of attendance upon certification by  the
 7        regional   superintendent,  and  approved  by  the  State
 8        Superintendent  of  Education  to  the  extent  that  the
 9        district has been forced to use daily multiple sessions.
10             (d)  A session of 3  or  more  clock  hours  may  be
11        counted  as a day of attendance (1) when the remainder of
12        the school day or at least 2 hours in the evening of that
13        day is utilized for an in-service  training  program  for
14        teachers,  up  to  a maximum of 5 days per school year of
15        which a maximum of 4 days of such 5 days may be used  for
16        parent-teacher  conferences, provided a district conducts
17        an in-service training program  for  teachers  which  has
18        been  approved  by the State Superintendent of Education;
19        or, in lieu of 4 such days, 2 full days may be  used,  in
20        which  event  each  such  day  may be counted as a day of
21        attendance; and  (2)  when  days  in  addition  to  those
22        provided  in  item (1) are scheduled by a school pursuant
23        to its school improvement plan adopted under  Article  34
24        or its revised or amended school improvement plan adopted
25        under  Article 2, provided that (i) such sessions of 3 or
26        more clock  hours  are  scheduled  to  occur  at  regular
27        intervals, (ii) the remainder of the school days in which
28        such  sessions occur are utilized for in-service training
29        programs  or  other  staff  development  activities   for
30        teachers,  and  (iii)  a  sufficient number of minutes of
31        school work under the direct supervision of teachers  are
32        added to the school days between such regularly scheduled
33        sessions  to  accumulate  not  less  than  the  number of
34        minutes by which such sessions of 3 or more  clock  hours
 
                            -373-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        fall  short  of 5 clock hours. Any full days used for the
 2        purposes of this paragraph shall not  be  considered  for
 3        computing  average  daily attendance.  Days scheduled for
 4        in-service   training   programs,    staff    development
 5        activities,   or   parent-teacher   conferences   may  be
 6        scheduled  separately  for  different  grade  levels  and
 7        different attendance centers of the district.
 8             (e)  A session of not less than one  clock  hour  of
 9        teaching  hospitalized  or homebound pupils on-site or by
10        telephone to the classroom may be counted as 1/2  day  of
11        attendance,  however  these pupils must receive 4 or more
12        clock hours of instruction to be counted for a  full  day
13        of attendance.
14             (f)  A  session  of  at  least  4 clock hours may be
15        counted as a day of attendance for  first  grade  pupils,
16        and  pupils in full day kindergartens, and a session of 2
17        or more hours may be counted as 1/2 day of attendance  by
18        pupils  in  kindergartens  which  provide only 1/2 day of
19        attendance.
20             (g)  For children with disabilities  who  are  below
21        the  age of 6 years and who cannot attend 2 or more clock
22        hours  because  of  their  disability  or  immaturity,  a
23        session of not less than one clock hour may be counted as
24        1/2 day of attendance; however for  such  children  whose
25        educational needs so require a session of 4 or more clock
26        hours may be counted as a full day of attendance.
27             (h)  A  recognized  kindergarten  which provides for
28        only 1/2 day of attendance by each pupil shall  not  have
29        more  than  1/2 day of attendance counted in any one day.
30        However, kindergartens may count 2 1/2 days of attendance
31        in any 5 consecutive school days.  When a  pupil  attends
32        such  a  kindergarten  for  2 half days on any one school
33        day, the pupil shall have the  following  day  as  a  day
34        absent  from  school,  unless the school district obtains
 
                            -374-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        permission in writing from the  State  Superintendent  of
 2        Education.  Attendance at kindergartens which provide for
 3        a full day of attendance by each pupil shall  be  counted
 4        the  same  as  attendance by first grade pupils. Only the
 5        first year of attendance in  one  kindergarten  shall  be
 6        counted,  except  in  case  of  children  who entered the
 7        kindergarten  in  their  fifth  year  whose   educational
 8        development  requires  a  second  year of kindergarten as
 9        determined under the rules and regulations of  the  State
10        Board of Education.

11    (G)  Equalized Assessed Valuation Data.
12        (1)  For  purposes  of the calculation of Available Local
13    Resources required pursuant  to  subsection  (D),  the  State
14    Board  of  Education  shall  secure  from  the  Department of
15    Revenue the value as equalized or assessed by the  Department
16    of  Revenue of all taxable property of every school district,
17    together with (i) the applicable tax rate used  in  extending
18    taxes for the funds of the district as of September 30 of the
19    previous  year  and  (ii)  the  limiting  rate for all school
20    districts subject to property tax  extension  limitations  as
21    imposed under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law.
22        This equalized assessed valuation, as adjusted further by
23    the requirements of this subsection, shall be utilized in the
24    calculation of Available Local Resources.
25        (2)  The  equalized  assessed  valuation in paragraph (1)
26    shall be adjusted, as applicable, in the following manner:
27             (a)  For the purposes of calculating State aid under
28        this Section, with  respect  to  any  part  of  a  school
29        district  within  a redevelopment project area in respect
30        to  which  a  municipality  has  adopted  tax   increment
31        allocation   financing  pursuant  to  the  Tax  Increment
32        Allocation Redevelopment Act, Sections 11-74.4-1  through
33        11-74.4-11   of   the  Illinois  Municipal  Code  or  the
34        Industrial Jobs Recovery Law, Sections 11-74.6-1  through
 
                            -375-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        11-74.6-50 of the Illinois Municipal Code, no part of the
 2        current  equalized  assessed  valuation  of real property
 3        located in any such project area which is attributable to
 4        an increase above the total  initial  equalized  assessed
 5        valuation  of  such property shall be used as part of the
 6        equalized assessed valuation of the district, until  such
 7        time  as  all redevelopment project costs have been paid,
 8        as provided in Section 11-74.4-8  of  the  Tax  Increment
 9        Allocation  Redevelopment Act or in Section 11-74.6-35 of
10        the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law.  For the purpose of the
11        equalized assessed valuation of the district,  the  total
12        initial  equalized  assessed  valuation  or  the  current
13        equalized  assessed  valuation, whichever is lower, shall
14        be used until such  time  as  all  redevelopment  project
15        costs have been paid.
16             (b)  The  real property equalized assessed valuation
17        for a school district shall be  adjusted  by  subtracting
18        from  the real property value as equalized or assessed by
19        the Department of Revenue  for  the  district  an  amount
20        computed by dividing the amount of any abatement of taxes
21        under  Section  18-170  of the Property Tax Code by 3.00%
22        for a district maintaining  grades  kindergarten  through
23        12,   by   2.30%   for   a  district  maintaining  grades
24        kindergarten through  8,  or  by  1.05%  for  a  district
25        maintaining grades 9 through 12 and adjusted by an amount
26        computed by dividing the amount of any abatement of taxes
27        under  subsection  (a)  of Section 18-165 of the Property
28        Tax Code by the same percentage rates for  district  type
29        as specified in this subparagraph (b).
30        (3)  For  the  1999-2000 school year and each school year
31    thereafter, if a school district meets all of the criteria of
32    this subsection (G)(3), the school district's Available Local
33    Resources shall be calculated under subsection (D) using  the
34    district's  Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation
 
                            -376-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    as calculated under this subsection (G)(3).
 2        For purposes of  this  subsection  (G)(3)  the  following
 3    terms shall have the following meanings:
 4             "Budget  Year":   The  school year for which general
 5        State aid is calculated and awarded under subsection (E).
 6             "Base Tax Year": The property tax levy year used  to
 7        calculate  the  Budget  Year  allocation of general State
 8        aid.
 9             "Preceding Tax Year": The  property  tax  levy  year
10        immediately preceding the Base Tax Year.
11             "Base  Tax Year's Tax Extension": The product of the
12        equalized assessed valuation utilized by the County Clerk
13        in the Base Tax Year multiplied by the limiting  rate  as
14        calculated  by  the  County  Clerk  and  defined  in  the
15        Property Tax Extension Limitation Law.
16             "Preceding Tax Year's Tax Extension": The product of
17        the  equalized  assessed valuation utilized by the County
18        Clerk  in  the  Preceding  Tax  Year  multiplied  by  the
19        Operating Tax Rate as defined in subsection (A).
20             "Extension Limitation  Ratio":  A  numerical  ratio,
21        certified  by the County Clerk, in which the numerator is
22        the Base Tax Year's Tax Extension and the denominator  is
23        the Preceding Tax Year's Tax Extension.
24             "Operating  Tax  Rate":  The  operating  tax rate as
25        defined in subsection (A).
26        If a school district is subject to property tax extension
27    limitations as  imposed  under  the  Property  Tax  Extension
28    Limitation  Law, the State Board of Education shall calculate
29    the Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation of that
30    district.  For  the  1999-2000  school  year,  the  Extension
31    Limitation  Equalized Assessed Valuation of a school district
32    as calculated by the State Board of Education shall be  equal
33    to  the  product  of  the  district's 1996 Equalized Assessed
34    Valuation and the district's Extension Limitation Ratio.  For
 
                            -377-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    the 2000-2001 school year and each  school  year  thereafter,
 2    the  Extension  Limitation  Equalized Assessed Valuation of a
 3    school district as calculated by the State Board of Education
 4    shall be equal to  the  product  of  the  Equalized  Assessed
 5    Valuation  last  used in the calculation of general State aid
 6    and  the  district's  Extension  Limitation  Ratio.  If   the
 7    Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation of a school
 8    district  as  calculated under this subsection (G)(3) is less
 9    than  the  district's   equalized   assessed   valuation   as
10    calculated  pursuant  to  subsections (G)(1) and (G)(2), then
11    for purposes of calculating the district's general State  aid
12    for   the  Budget  Year  pursuant  to  subsection  (E),  that
13    Extension Limitation Equalized Assessed  Valuation  shall  be
14    utilized   to   calculate   the  district's  Available  Local
15    Resources under subsection (D).
16        (4)  For the purposes of calculating  general  State  aid
17    for  the  1999-2000  school  year  only, if a school district
18    experienced  a  triennial  reassessment  on   the   equalized
19    assessed  valuation  used  in  calculating  its general State
20    financial aid apportionment for the  1998-1999  school  year,
21    the  State  Board  of Education shall calculate the Extension
22    Limitation Equalized Assessed Valuation that would have  been
23    used to calculate the district's 1998-1999 general State aid.
24    This amount shall equal the product of the equalized assessed
25    valuation  used  to  calculate  general  State  aid  for  the
26    1997-1998 school year and the district's Extension Limitation
27    Ratio.    If  the  Extension  Limitation  Equalized  Assessed
28    Valuation of the school district  as  calculated  under  this
29    paragraph  (4) is less than the district's equalized assessed
30    valuation utilized in calculating  the  district's  1998-1999
31    general   State   aid   allocation,   then  for  purposes  of
32    calculating the district's  general  State  aid  pursuant  to
33    paragraph  (5)  of  subsection (E), that Extension Limitation
34    Equalized Assessed Valuation shall be utilized  to  calculate
 
                            -378-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    the district's Available Local Resources.
 2        (5)  For  school  districts  having  a  majority of their
 3    equalized assessed  valuation  in  any  county  except  Cook,
 4    DuPage,  Kane,  Lake,  McHenry,  or  Will,  if  the amount of
 5    general State aid allocated to the school  district  for  the
 6    1999-2000 school year under the provisions of subsection (E),
 7    (H),  and  (J)  of  this  Section  is less than the amount of
 8    general State aid allocated to the district for the 1998-1999
 9    school year under these subsections, then the  general  State
10    aid  of the district for the 1999-2000 school year only shall
11    be increased by the difference between  these  amounts.   The
12    total payments made under this paragraph (5) shall not exceed
13    $14,000,000.    Claims  shall  be  prorated  if  they  exceed
14    $14,000,000.

15    (H)  Supplemental General State Aid.
16        (1)  In addition  to  the  general  State  aid  a  school
17    district  is  allotted pursuant to subsection (E), qualifying
18    school districts shall receive a grant, paid  in  conjunction
19    with   a  district's  payments  of  general  State  aid,  for
20    supplemental general State aid based upon  the  concentration
21    level  of  children  from  low-income  households  within the
22    school district. Supplemental State aid grants  provided  for
23    school  districts under this subsection shall be appropriated
24    for distribution to school districts as part of the same line
25    item in which the  general  State  financial  aid  of  school
26    districts is appropriated under this Section. For purposes of
27    this  subsection,  the  term "Low-Income Concentration Level"
28    shall be the low-income eligible pupil count  from  the  most
29    recently  available  federal  census  divided  by the Average
30    Daily Attendance of the school district. If, however, (i) the
31    percentage decrease from the 2 most recent  federal  censuses
32    in  the  low-income  eligible  pupil  count  of a high school
33    district with fewer than 400 students exceeds by 75% or  more
34    the  percentage change in the total low-income eligible pupil
 
                            -379-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    count  of  contiguous  elementary  school  districts,   whose
 2    boundaries  are coterminous with the high school district, or
 3    (ii) a high school district within 2 counties and  serving  5
 4    elementary school districts, whose boundaries are coterminous
 5    with the high school district, has a percentage decrease from
 6    the 2 most recent federal censuses in the low-income eligible
 7    pupil  count  and there is a percentage increase in the total
 8    low-income  eligible  pupil  count  of  a  majority  of   the
 9    elementary  school districts in excess of 50% from the 2 most
10    recent federal censuses,  then  the  high  school  district's
11    low-income  eligible  pupil  count  from  the earlier federal
12    census shall be the number used as  the  low-income  eligible
13    pupil  count  for  the  high school district, for purposes of
14    this subsection (H).  The changes made to this paragraph  (1)
15    by  Public  Act 92-28 this amendatory Act of the 92nd General
16    Assembly shall apply to supplemental general State aid grants
17    paid in fiscal year 1999 and in each fiscal  year  thereafter
18    and  to  any  State  aid  payments  made  in fiscal year 1994
19    through fiscal year  1998  pursuant  to  subsection  1(n)  of
20    Section  18-8  of  this  Code  (which was repealed on July 1,
21    1998), and any high  school  district  that  is  affected  by
22    Public  Act  92-28  this  amendatory  Act of the 92nd General
23    Assembly is entitled to a recomputation of  its  supplemental
24    general  State  aid  grant  or State aid paid in any of those
25    fiscal years.  This recomputation shall not  be  affected  by
26    any other funding.
27        (2)  Supplemental  general  State  aid  pursuant  to this
28    subsection  (H)  shall  be  provided  as  follows   for   the
29    1998-1999, 1999-2000, and 2000-2001 school years only:
30             (a)  For  any  school  district  with  a  Low Income
31        Concentration Level of at least 20% and  less  than  35%,
32        the grant for any school year shall be $800 multiplied by
33        the low income eligible pupil count.
34             (b)  For  any  school  district  with  a  Low Income
 
                            -380-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        Concentration Level of at least 35% and  less  than  50%,
 2        the  grant  for the 1998-1999 school year shall be $1,100
 3        multiplied by the low income eligible pupil count.
 4             (c)  For any  school  district  with  a  Low  Income
 5        Concentration  Level  of  at least 50% and less than 60%,
 6        the grant for the 1998-99 school  year  shall  be  $1,500
 7        multiplied by the low income eligible pupil count.
 8             (d)  For  any  school  district  with  a  Low Income
 9        Concentration Level of 60% or more,  the  grant  for  the

11        income eligible pupil count.
12             (e)  For  the  1999-2000  school year, the per pupil
13        amount specified  in  subparagraphs  (b),  (c),  and  (d)
14        immediately  above  shall be increased to $1,243, $1,600,
15        and $2,000, respectively.
16             (f)  For the 2000-2001 school year,  the  per  pupil
17        amounts  specified  in  subparagraphs  (b),  (c), and (d)
18        immediately above shall be $1,273,  $1,640,  and  $2,050,
19        respectively.
20        (2.5)  Supplemental  general  State  aid pursuant to this
21    subsection (H) shall be provided as follows for the 2001-2002
22    school year and each school year thereafter:
23             (a)  For any  school  district  with  a  Low  Income
24        Concentration  Level of less than 10%, the grant for each
25        school year shall be $355 multiplied by  the  low  income
26        eligible pupil count.
27             (b)  For  any  school  district  with  a  Low Income
28        Concentration Level of at least 10% and  less  than  20%,
29        the  grant  for each school year shall be $675 multiplied
30        by the low income eligible pupil count.
31             (c)  For any  school  district  with  a  Low  Income
32        Concentration  Level  of  at least 20% and less than 35%,
33        the grant for each school year shall be $1,190 multiplied
34        by the low income eligible pupil count.

 8        from one or several sources in order to  fully  implement
 9        this provision annually prior to the opening of school.
10             (c)  Each attendance center shall be provided by the
11        school  district  a  distribution of noncategorical funds
12        and other categorical funds to which an attendance center
13        is entitled under law in order that the general State aid
14        and  supplemental   general   State   aid   provided   by
15        application  of  this  subsection supplements rather than
16        supplants the noncategorical funds and other  categorical
17        funds  provided  by the school district to the attendance
18        centers.
19             (d)  Any funds made available under this  subsection
20        that  by  reason of the provisions of this subsection are
21        not required to be allocated and provided  to  attendance
22        centers  may be used and appropriated by the board of the
23        district for any lawful school purpose.
24             (e)  Funds received by an attendance center pursuant
25        to this subsection shall be used by the attendance center
26        at the discretion  of  the  principal  and  local  school
27        council for programs to improve educational opportunities
28        at  qualifying schools through the following programs and
29        services: early childhood education, reduced  class  size
30        or  improved adult to student classroom ratio, enrichment
31        programs, remedial  assistance,  attendance  improvement,
32        and  other  educationally  beneficial  expenditures which
33        supplement the regular and basic programs  as  determined
34        by the State Board of Education. Funds provided shall not

 2        defined by board rule.
 3             (f)  Each district subject to the provisions of this
 4        subdivision (H)(4) shall submit  an  acceptable  plan  to
 5        meet  the educational needs of disadvantaged children, in
 6        compliance with the requirements of  this  paragraph,  to
 7        the  State  Board  of  Education prior to July 15 of each
 8        year. This plan shall be consistent with the decisions of
 9        local school councils concerning the  school  expenditure
10        plans  developed  in  accordance  with  part 4 of Section
11        34-2.3.  The State Board shall approve or reject the plan
12        within 60 days after its  submission.   If  the  plan  is
13        rejected,  the  district  shall  give  written  notice of
14        intent  to  modify  the  plan  within  15  days  of   the
15        notification of rejection and then submit a modified plan
16        within  30  days  after the date of the written notice of
17        intent to modify.  Districts  may  amend  approved  plans
18        pursuant  to  rules  promulgated  by  the  State Board of
19        Education.
20             Upon notification by the State  Board  of  Education
21        that  the district has not submitted a plan prior to July
22        15 or a modified plan within the  time  period  specified
23        herein,  the  State  aid  funds  affected by that plan or
24        modified plan shall be withheld by  the  State  Board  of
25        Education until a plan or modified plan is submitted.
26             If  the  district  fails  to distribute State aid to
27        attendance centers in accordance with an  approved  plan,
28        the  plan for the following year shall allocate funds, in
29        addition  to  the  funds  otherwise  required   by   this
30        subsection,   to  those  attendance  centers  which  were
31        underfunded during the previous year in amounts equal  to
32        such underfunding.
33             For  purposes  of  determining  compliance with this
34        subsection in relation to the requirements of  attendance
 
                            -384-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        center  funding,  each district subject to the provisions
 2        of this subsection shall submit as a separate document by
 3        December 1 of each year a report of expenditure data  for
 4        the  prior  year  in  addition to any modification of its
 5        current plan.  If it is determined that there has been  a
 6        failure to comply with the expenditure provisions of this
 7        subsection  regarding  contravention  or supplanting, the
 8        State Superintendent of Education shall, within  60  days
 9        of  receipt  of  the  report, notify the district and any
10        affected local school council.  The district shall within
11        45 days of receipt of that notification inform the  State
12        Superintendent of Education of the remedial or corrective
13        action  to be taken, whether  by amendment of the current
14        plan, if feasible, or by adjustment in the plan  for  the
15        following  year.   Failure  to  provide  the  expenditure
16        report  or  the  notification  of  remedial or corrective
17        action in a timely manner shall result in  a  withholding
18        of the affected funds.
19             The  State Board of Education shall promulgate rules
20        and regulations  to  implement  the  provisions  of  this
21        subsection.   No  funds  shall  be  released  under  this
22        subdivision (H)(4) to any district that has not submitted
23        a  plan  that  has  been  approved  by the State Board of
24        Education.

25    (I)  General State Aid for Newly Configured School Districts.
26        (1)  For  a  new  school  district  formed  by  combining
27    property  included  totally  within  2  or  more   previously
28    existing  school  districts,  for its first year of existence
29    the general State aid  and  supplemental  general  State  aid
30    calculated  under  this Section shall be computed for the new
31    district and for the previously existing districts for  which
32    property is totally included within the new district.  If the
33    computation on the basis of the previously existing districts
34    is  greater,  a supplementary payment equal to the difference
 
                            -385-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    shall be made for the first 4 years of existence of  the  new
 2    district.
 3        (2)  For  a  school  district  which  annexes  all of the
 4    territory of one or more entire other school  districts,  for
 5    the   first  year  during  which  the  change  of  boundaries
 6    attributable to such annexation  becomes  effective  for  all
 7    purposes as determined under Section 7-9 or 7A-8, the general
 8    State aid and supplemental general State aid calculated under
 9    this  Section  shall be computed for the annexing district as
10    constituted after the annexation and  for  the  annexing  and
11    each annexed district as constituted prior to the annexation;
12    and  if  the  computation  on  the  basis of the annexing and
13    annexed districts as constituted prior to the  annexation  is
14    greater,  a  supplementary  payment  equal  to the difference
15    shall be made for the first  4  years  of  existence  of  the
16    annexing school district as constituted upon such annexation.
17        (3)  For  2  or  more school districts which annex all of
18    the territory of one or more entire other  school  districts,
19    and  for 2 or more community unit districts which result upon
20    the division (pursuant to petition under  Section  11A-2)  of
21    one  or more other unit school districts into 2 or more parts
22    and which together include all of the parts into  which  such
23    other  unit  school district or districts are so divided, for
24    the  first  year  during  which  the  change  of   boundaries
25    attributable to such annexation or division becomes effective
26    for  all  purposes as determined under Section 7-9 or 11A-10,
27    as the case may be, the general State  aid  and  supplemental
28    general  State  aid  calculated  under  this Section shall be
29    computed  for  each  annexing  or   resulting   district   as
30    constituted  after  the  annexation  or division and for each
31    annexing and annexed district,  or  for  each  resulting  and
32    divided  district,  as constituted prior to the annexation or
33    division; and if the aggregate of the general State  aid  and
34    supplemental  general  State  aid  as  so  computed  for  the
 
                            -386-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    annexing  or  resulting  districts  as  constituted after the
 2    annexation or division is less  than  the  aggregate  of  the
 3    general  State  aid  and supplemental general State aid as so
 4    computed for the annexing and annexed districts, or  for  the
 5    resulting  and divided districts, as constituted prior to the
 6    annexation or division, then a supplementary payment equal to
 7    the difference shall be made and allocated between  or  among
 8    the annexing or resulting districts, as constituted upon such
 9    annexation  or  division,  for  the  first  4  years of their
10    existence.  The total difference payment shall  be  allocated
11    between  or  among the annexing or resulting districts in the
12    same ratio as the pupil enrollment from that portion  of  the
13    annexed  or divided district or districts which is annexed to
14    or included in each such annexing or resulting district bears
15    to the total pupil enrollment  from  the  entire  annexed  or
16    divided  district  or  districts, as such pupil enrollment is
17    determined for the school year last ending prior to the  date
18    when  the change of boundaries attributable to the annexation
19    or division becomes effective for all purposes.   The  amount
20    of  the total difference payment and the amount thereof to be
21    allocated to the annexing or  resulting  districts  shall  be
22    computed  by  the  State  Board  of Education on the basis of
23    pupil enrollment and other data which shall be  certified  to
24    the State Board of Education, on forms which it shall provide
25    for  that  purpose, by the regional superintendent of schools
26    for each educational service region in which the annexing and
27    annexed districts, or resulting  and  divided  districts  are
28    located.
29        (3.5)  Claims   for   financial   assistance  under  this
30    subsection (I) shall not be recomputed  except  as  expressly
31    provided under this Section.
32        (4)  Any supplementary payment made under this subsection
33    (I) shall be treated as separate from all other payments made
34    pursuant to this Section.

 1    (J)  Supplementary Grants in Aid.
 2        (1)  Notwithstanding   any   other   provisions  of  this
 3    Section, the amount of the aggregate  general  State  aid  in
 4    combination  with  supplemental  general State aid under this
 5    Section for which each school district is eligible  shall  be
 6    no  less  than  the amount of the aggregate general State aid
 7    entitlement that was received by the district  under  Section
 8    18-8  (exclusive  of  amounts received under subsections 5(p)
 9    and 5(p-5) of that Section)  for  the  1997-98  school  year,
10    pursuant  to the provisions of that Section as it was then in
11    effect.  If  a  school  district  qualifies  to   receive   a
12    supplementary  payment  made  under  this subsection (J), the
13    amount of the aggregate general State aid in combination with
14    supplemental general State aid under this Section which  that
15    district is eligible to receive for each school year shall be
16    no  less  than  the amount of the aggregate general State aid
17    entitlement that was received by the district  under  Section
18    18-8  (exclusive  of  amounts received under subsections 5(p)
19    and 5(p-5) of that Section) for the  1997-1998  school  year,
20    pursuant  to the provisions of that Section as it was then in
21    effect.
22        (2)  If, as provided in paragraph (1) of this  subsection
23    (J),  a school district is to receive aggregate general State
24    aid in combination with supplemental general State aid  under
25    this  Section  for the 1998-99 school year and any subsequent
26    school year that in any such school year  is  less  than  the
27    amount  of  the  aggregate general State aid entitlement that
28    the district received for the 1997-98 school year, the school
29    district shall also receive, from  a  separate  appropriation
30    made  for  purposes  of  this subsection (J), a supplementary
31    payment that is equal to the amount of the difference in  the
32    aggregate State aid figures as described in paragraph (1).
33        (3)  (Blank).

34    (K)  Grants to Laboratory and Alternative Schools.
 
                            -388-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        In  calculating  the  amount  to be paid to the governing
 2    board of a  public  university  that  operates  a  laboratory
 3    school  under  this Section or to any alternative school that
 4    is operated by a  regional  superintendent  of  schools,  the
 5    State Board of Education shall require by rule such reporting
 6    requirements as it deems necessary.
 7        As  used  in  this  Section,  "laboratory school" means a
 8    public school which is  created  and  operated  by  a  public
 9    university and approved by the State Board of Education.  The
10    governing  board  of a public university which receives funds
11    from the State  Board  under  this  subsection  (K)  may  not
12    increase  the  number  of students enrolled in its laboratory
13    school from a single district, if that  district  is  already
14    sending  50 or more students, except under a mutual agreement
15    between the school board of a student's district of residence
16    and the university which operates the laboratory  school.   A
17    laboratory  school  may  not  have  more than 1,000 students,
18    excluding students with disabilities in a  special  education
19    program.
20        As  used  in  this  Section, "alternative school" means a
21    public school which is created and  operated  by  a  Regional
22    Superintendent  of Schools and approved by the State Board of
23    Education.  Such alternative schools  may  offer  courses  of
24    instruction  for  which  credit  is  given  in regular school
25    programs, courses to prepare students  for  the  high  school
26    equivalency  testing  program  or vocational and occupational
27    training.   A regional superintendent of schools may contract
28    with a school district or a public community college district
29    to operate an  alternative  school.   An  alternative  school
30    serving  more  than  one  educational  service  region may be
31    established by the regional superintendents of schools of the
32    affected educational service regions.  An alternative  school
33    serving  more  than  one  educational  service  region may be
34    operated under such terms as the regional superintendents  of
 
                            -389-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    schools of those educational service regions may agree.
 2        Each  laboratory  and  alternative  school shall file, on
 3    forms provided by the State Superintendent of  Education,  an
 4    annual  State  aid  claim  which  states  the  Average  Daily
 5    Attendance  of  the  school's  students by month.  The best 3
 6    months' Average Daily Attendance shall be computed  for  each
 7    school.  The  general State aid entitlement shall be computed
 8    by multiplying the applicable Average Daily Attendance by the
 9    Foundation Level as determined under this Section.

10    (L)  Payments,   Additional   Grants   in   Aid   and   Other
11    Requirements.
12        (1)  For a school district operating under the  financial
13    supervision  of  an  Authority created under Article 34A, the
14    general State aid otherwise payable to  that  district  under
15    this  Section,  but  not  the supplemental general State aid,
16    shall be reduced by an amount equal to  the  budget  for  the
17    operations  of the Authority as certified by the Authority to
18    the State Board of Education, and an  amount  equal  to  such
19    reduction  shall  be  paid  to the Authority created for such
20    district for its operating expenses in the manner provided in
21    Section 18-11.  The remainder of general State school aid for
22    any such district shall be paid in  accordance  with  Article
23    34A  when  that Article provides for a disposition other than
24    that provided by this Article.
25        (2)  (Blank).
26        (3)  Summer school.  Summer school payments shall be made
27    as provided in Section 18-4.3.

28    (M)  Education Funding Advisory Board.
29        The Education Funding Advisory Board, hereinafter in this
30    subsection (M) referred to as the "Board", is hereby created.
31    The Board shall consist of 5 members who are appointed by the
32    Governor, by and with the advice and consent of  the  Senate.
33    The   members  appointed  shall  include  representatives  of
 
                            -390-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    education, business, and  the  general  public.  One  of  the
 2    members  so  appointed shall be designated by the Governor at
 3    the time the appointment is made as the  chairperson  of  the
 4    Board.  The initial members of the Board may be appointed any
 5    time after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997.
 6    The regular term of each member of the Board shall be  for  4
 7    years  from  the third Monday of January of the year in which
 8    the term of the member's appointment is to  commence,  except
 9    that  of  the  5  initial  members  appointed to serve on the
10    Board, the member who is appointed as the  chairperson  shall
11    serve  for  a  term  that commences on the date of his or her
12    appointment and expires on the third Monday of January, 2002,
13    and the remaining 4 members,  by  lots  drawn  at  the  first
14    meeting  of  the  Board  that is held after all 5 members are
15    appointed, shall determine 2 of their  number  to  serve  for
16    terms   that   commence  on  the  date  of  their  respective
17    appointments and expire on the third Monday of January, 2001,
18    and 2 of their number to serve for terms that commence on the
19    date of their respective appointments and expire on the third
20    Monday of January, 2000.  All members appointed to  serve  on
21    the  Board  shall serve until their respective successors are
22    appointed and confirmed.  Vacancies shall be  filled  in  the
23    same  manner  as  original  appointments.   If  a  vacancy in
24    membership occurs at  a  time  when  the  Senate  is  not  in
25    session,  the  Governor  shall  make  a temporary appointment
26    until the next meeting of the Senate, when he  or  she  shall
27    appoint,  by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, a
28    person to fill that membership for the  unexpired  term.   If
29    the  Senate  is  not in session when the initial appointments
30    are made, those appointments shall be made as in the case  of
31    vacancies.
32        The  Education  Funding  Advisory  Board  shall be deemed
33    established,  and  the  initial  members  appointed  by   the
34    Governor  to serve as members of the Board shall take office,
 
                            -391-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    on the date that the Governor makes his or her appointment of
 2    the fifth initial member of the Board, whether those  initial
 3    members   are   then  serving  pursuant  to  appointment  and
 4    confirmation or pursuant to temporary appointments  that  are
 5    made by the Governor as in the case of vacancies.
 6        The  State  Board  of  Education shall provide such staff
 7    assistance to the Education  Funding  Advisory  Board  as  is
 8    reasonably  required  for the proper performance by the Board
 9    of its responsibilities.
10        For school years after the  2000-2001  school  year,  the
11    Education  Funding  Advisory  Board, in consultation with the
12    State Board  of  Education,  shall  make  recommendations  as
13    provided  in  this subsection (M) to the General Assembly for
14    the foundation level under subdivision (B)(3) of this Section
15    and for the supplemental general State aid grant level  under
16    subsection  (H)  of  this  Section  for  districts  with high
17    concentrations of children  from  poverty.   The  recommended
18    foundation  level  shall be determined based on a methodology
19    which  incorporates  the  basic  education  expenditures   of
20    low-spending  schools  exhibiting  high academic performance.
21    The  Education  Funding  Advisory  Board  shall   make   such
22    recommendations  to  the General Assembly on January 1 of odd
23    numbered years, beginning January 1, 2001.

24        (205 ILCS 5/14) (from Ch. 17, par. 321)

28        (1)  All banks shall  have  their  capital  divided  into
29    shares  of  a par value of not less than $1 each and not more
30    than $100 each, however, the par value of shares  of  a  bank
31    effecting  a  reverse  stock  split  pursuant  to item (8) of
32    subsection (a) of Section  17  may  temporarily  exceed  this
 
                            -395-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    limit  provided  it  conforms to the limits immediately after
 2    the reverse stock split is completed.  No  issue  of  capital
 3    stock  or  preferred stock shall be valid until not less than
 4    the par value of all such stock so issued shall  be  paid  in
 5    and  notice  thereof  by  the  president, a vice-president or
 6    cashier of the bank has been transmitted to the Commissioner.
 7    In  the  case  of  an  increase  in  capital  stock  by   the
 8    declaration  of  a  stock  dividend,  the  capitalization  of
 9    retained  earnings  effected  by  such  stock  dividend shall
10    constitute the  payment  for  such  shares  required  by  the
11    preceding  sentence,  provided  that the surplus of said bank
12    after such stock dividend shall be at least  equal  to  fifty
13    per  cent  of the capital as increased. The charter shall not
14    limit or deny the voting power of the shares of any class  of
15    stock except as provided in Section 15(3) of this Act.
16        (2)  Pursuant  to  action  taken  in  accordance with the
17    requirements of Section 17, a bank may issue preferred  stock
18    of   one  or  more  classes  as  shall  be  approved  by  the
19    Commissioner as hereinafter provided, and make such amendment
20    to its charter as may be necessary for this purpose;  but  in
21    the case of any newly organized bank which has not yet issued
22    capital stock the requirements of Section 17 shall not apply.
23        (3)  Without  limiting  the  authority herein contained a
24    bank, when so provided in its charter and  when  approved  by
25    the Commissioner, may issue shares of preferred stock:

33        classes of shares as to the payment of dividends;
34             (d)  Having  preference as to the assets of the bank
 
                            -396-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        over any other  class  or  classes  of  shares  upon  the
 2        voluntary or involuntary liquidation of the bank;
 3             (e)  Convertible  into  shares of any other class of
 4        stock,  provided  that  preferred  shares  shall  not  be
 5        converted into shares of a  different  par  value  unless
 6        that  part of the capital of the bank represented by such
 7        preferred shares is at the time of the  conversion  equal
 8        to  the  aggregate par value of the shares into which the
 9        preferred shares are to be converted.
10        (4)  If any part of the capital of  a  bank  consists  of
11    preferred  stock,  the  determination  of  whether or not the
12    capital of such bank is  impaired  and  the  amount  of  such
13    impairment  shall  be  based  upon the par value of its stock
14    even though the amount which the holders  of  such  preferred
15    stock shall be entitled to receive in the event of retirement
16    or  liquidation  shall  be in excess of the par value of such
17    preferred stock.
18        (5)  Pursuant to action  taken  in  accordance  with  the
19    requirements  of  Section  17  of  this Act, a state bank may
20    provide for a specified number  of  authorized  but  unissued
21    shares  of  capital  stock  for  one or more of the following
22    purposes:
23             (a)  Reserved for issuance under stock  option  plan
24        or plans to directors, officers or employees;
25             (b)  Reserved   for   issuance  upon  conversion  of
26        convertible preferred stock issued  pursuant  to  and  in
27        compliance with the provisions of subsections (2) and (3)
28        of this Section 14.
29             (c)  Reserved   for   issuance  upon  conversion  of
30        convertible debentures or other convertible evidences  of
31        indebtedness issued by a state bank, provided always that
32        the  terms  of  such conversion have been approved by the
33        Commissioner;
34             (d)  Reserved for issuance by the declaration  of  a
 
                            -397-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        stock  dividend.  If and when any shares of capital stock
 2        are proposed to be authorized and reserved for any of the
 3        purposes set forth  in  subparagraphs  (a),  (b)  or  (c)
 4        above,  the  notice  of  the  meeting, whether special or
 5        annual, of stockholders at which such proposition  is  to
 6        be considered shall be accompanied by a statement setting
 7        forth  or  summarizing the terms upon which the shares of
 8        capital stock so reserved  are  to  be  issued,  and  the
 9        extent to which any preemptive rights of stockholders are
10        inapplicable to the issuance of the shares so reserved or
11        to   the   convertible  preferred  stock  or  convertible
12        debentures   or   other    convertible    evidences    of
13        indebtedness, and the approving vote of the holders of at
14        least  two-thirds  of  the  outstanding  shares  of stock
15        entitled to vote at such meeting of  the  terms  of  such
16        issuance  shall  be  requisite  for  the  adoption of any
17        amendment providing for the reservation of authorized but
18        unissued shares for any of said purposes. Nothing in this
19        subsection (5) contained shall be deemed to authorize the
20        issuance of any capital stock for  a  consideration  less
21        than the par value thereof.
22        (6)  Upon written application to the Commissioner 60 days
23    prior  to  the  proposed  purchase and receipt of the written
24    approval of the Commissioner, a state bank may  purchase  and
25    hold  as  treasury  stock such amounts of the total number of
26    issued and outstanding shares of its  capital  and  preferred
27    stock   outstanding   as   the   Commissioner  determines  is
28    consistent with  safety  and  soundness  of  the  bank.   The
29    Commissioner  may  specify  the  manner of accounting for the
30    treasury stock and the  form  of  notice  prior  to  ultimate
31    disposition  of  the  shares.   Except  as authorized in this
32    subsection, it shall not  be  lawful  for  a  state  bank  to
33    purchase  or  hold  any  additional such shares or securities
34    described in subsection (2) of Section 37 unless necessary to
 
                            -398-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    prevent loss upon a debt previously contracted in good faith,
 2    in which event such shares  or  securities  so  purchased  or
 3    acquired  shall, within 6 months from the time of purchase or
 4    acquisition, be sold or disposed  of  at  public  or  private
 5    sale.   Any  state  bank  which  intends to purchase and hold
 6    treasury stock as authorized in  this  subsection  (6)  shall
 7    file  a  written  application  with  the Commissioner 60 days
 8    prior to any such proposed purchase.  The  application  shall
 9    state the number of shares to be purchased, the consideration
10    for  the shares, the name and address of the person from whom
11    the shares are to be  purchased,  if  known,  and  the  total
12    percentage of its issued and outstanding shares to be held by
13    the bank after the purchase.  The total consideration paid by
14    a  state  bank  for  treasury  stock shall reduce capital and
15    surplus of the bank for purposes  of  Sections  of  this  Act
16    relating  to  lending  and  investment  limits  which require
17    computation of capital and surplus.   After  considering  and
18    approving  an application to purchase and hold treasury stock
19    under this subsection, the Commissioner may waive  or  reduce
20    the   balance   of   the  60  day  application  period.   The
21    Commissioner may specify the  form  of  the  application  for
22    approval  to  acquire treasury stock and promulgate rules and
23    regulations for the administration of this subsection (6).  A
24    state bank may, acquire or resell  its  own  owns  shares  as
25    treasury  stock  pursuant  to  this  subsection (6) without a
26    change in its charter pursuant to Section 17.  Such stock may
27    be held for any purpose permitted in subsection (5)  of  this
28    Section 14 or may be resold upon such reasonable terms as the
29    board  of directors may determine provided notice is given to
30    the Commissioner prior to the resale of such stock.
31        (7)  During the time that a state bank shall continue its
32    banking business, it shall  not  withdraw  or  permit  to  be
33    withdrawn,  either in the form of dividends or otherwise, any
34    portion of its capital, but nothing in this subsection  shall
 
                            -399-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    prevent  a  reduction  or  change of the capital stock or the
 2    preferred stock under the provisions of Sections  17  through
 3    30  of  this  Act,  a  purchase  of  treasury stock under the
 4    provisions  of  subsection  (6)  of  this  Section  14  or  a
 5    redemption of preferred stock pursuant to charter  provisions
 6    therefor.
 7        (8) (a)  Subject to the provisions of this Act, the board
 8        of  directors  of  a  state  bank  from  time to time may
 9        declare a dividend of so much of the net profits of  such
10        bank  as  it  shall judge expedient, but each bank before
11        the declaration  of  a  dividend  shall  carry  at  least
12        one-tenth  of  its  net  profits  since  the  date of the
13        declaration of the last preceding dividend, or since  the
14        issuance  of  its  charter  in  the  case  of  its  first
15        dividend, to its surplus until the same shall be equal to
16        its capital.
17             (b)  No  dividends  shall  be  paid  by a state bank
18        while it continues its  banking  business  to  an  amount
19        greater  than  its  net  profits  then on hand, deducting
20        first therefrom its losses and bad debts.  All debts  due
21        to  a state bank on which interest is past due and unpaid
22        for a period of 6 months or more,  unless  the  same  are
23        well  secured  and in the process of collection, shall be
24        considered bad debts.
25        (9)  A State bank may, but shall not be obliged to, issue
26    a certificate for a fractional share, and, by action  of  its
27    board  of  directors,  may in lieu thereof, pay cash equal to
28    the value of the  fractional  share.   A  certificate  for  a
29    fractional   share  shall  entitle  the  holder  to  exercise
30    fractional  voting  rights,  to  receive  dividends,  and  to
31    participate in any of the assets of the bank in the event  of
32    liquidation.

12    State  banks  as  provided  in  Section  47 at least one time
13    during each calendar quarter.
14        (2) (a)  The Commissioner, as often as  the  Commissioner
15    shall  deem  necessary or proper, and no less frequently than
16    18 months following the preceding examination, shall  appoint
17    a  suitable  person  or persons to make an examination of the
18    affairs of every State bank, except that for  every  eligible
19    State  bank,  as  defined  by regulation, the Commissioner in
20    lieu of the examination may accept on  an  alternating  basis
21    the examination made by the eligible State bank's appropriate
22    federal banking agency pursuant to Section 111 of the Federal
23    Deposit   Insurance  Corporation  Improvement  Act  of  1991,
24    provided the appropriate federal banking agency has made such
25    an examination.   A  person  so  appointed  shall  not  be  a
26    stockholder  or  officer  or  employee of any bank which that
27    person may be directed to examine, and shall have  powers  to
28    make  a thorough examination into all the affairs of the bank
29    and in so doing to examine any of the officers or  agents  or
30    employees  thereof on oath and shall make a full and detailed
31    report of the condition of the bank to the Commissioner.   In
32    making   the  examination  the  examiners  shall  include  an
33    examination of the affairs of all the affiliates of the bank,
34    as defined in subsection (b) of Section 35.2 of this Act,  or

10    examination  of  State bank branches in those states, and the

12    branches from those  state  regulatory  authorities.    These
13    cooperative  agreements may set forth the manner in which the
14    other state regulatory authorities  may  be  compensated  for
15    examinations prepared for and submitted to the Commissioner.
16        (b)  After  May  31, 1997, the Commissioner is authorized

22    are  borne  by  the state regulatory authority that chartered
23    the  out-of-state  bank,  as  determined  by  a   cooperative
24    agreement  between  the Commissioner and the state regulatory
25    authority that chartered the out-of-state bank.
26        (2.5)  Whenever  any  State  bank,  any   subsidiary   or
27    affiliate  of a State bank, or after May 31, 1997, any branch
28    of an out-of-state bank causes to be performed,  by  contract
29    or otherwise, any bank services for itself, whether on or off
30    its premises:
31             (a)  that    performance   shall   be   subject   to
32        examination by the Commissioner to the same extent as  if
33        services  were  being performed by the bank or, after May
34        31, 1997, branch of the out-of-state bank itself  on  its
 
                            -402-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        own premises; and
 2             (b)  the  bank or, after May 31, 1997, branch of the
 3        out-of-state bank shall notify the  Commissioner  of  the
 4        existence  of  a  service relationship.  The notification
 5        shall be submitted with the first statement of  condition
 6        (as  required  by  Section  47 of this Act) due after the
 7        making of the service contract or the performance of  the
 8        service,  whichever occurs first.  The Commissioner shall
 9        be notified of  each  subsequent  contract  in  the  same
10        manner.
11        For  purposes  of  this  subsection (2.5), the term "bank
12    services" means services  such  as  sorting  and  posting  of
13    checks  and deposits, computation and posting of interest and
14    other credits and charges, preparation and mailing of checks,
15    statements,  notices,  and  similar  items,  or   any   other
16    clerical,  bookkeeping,  accounting,  statistical, or similar
17    functions performed for  a  State  bank,  including  but  not
18    limited  to  electronic data processing related to those bank
19    services.
20        (3)  The expense of administering this Act, including the
21    expense of the examinations of State  banks  as  provided  in
22    this  Act,  shall to the extent of the amounts resulting from
23    the fees provided for in paragraphs (a), (a-2),  and  (b)  of
24    this  subsection  (3)  be  assessed  against and borne by the
25    State banks:
26             (a)  Each bank shall pay to the Commissioner a  Call
27        Report  Fee which shall be paid in quarterly installments
28        equal to one-fourth of the sum of the annual fixed fee of
29        $800, plus a variable fee based on the  assets  shown  on
30        the  quarterly  statement  of  condition delivered to the
31        Commissioner  in  accordance  with  Section  47  for  the
32        preceding quarter according to  the  following  schedule:
33        16¢  per  $1,000 of the first $5,000,000 of total assets,
34        15¢ per $1,000 of the next $20,000,000 of  total  assets,
 
                            -403-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        13¢  per $1,000 of the next $75,000,000  of total assets,
 2        9¢ per $1,000 of the next $400,000,000 of  total  assets,
 3        7¢  per  $1,000 of the next $500,000,000 of total assets,
 4        and  5¢  per  $1,000  of  all   assets   in   excess   of
 5        $1,000,000,000,  of  the  State bank. The Call Report Fee
 6        shall be calculated by the Commissioner and billed to the
 7        banks  for  remittance  at  the  time  of  the  quarterly
 8        statements of condition provided for in Section  47.  The
 9        Commissioner  may require payment of the fees provided in
10        this Section by an electronic transfer  of  funds  or  an
11        automatic debit of an account of each of the State banks.
12        In  case  more than one examination of any bank is deemed
13        by the Commissioner to be necessary  in  any  examination
14        frequency  cycle  specified  in  subsection  2(a) of this
15        Section,  and  is  performed  at   his   direction,   the
16        Commissioner  may  assess  a reasonable additional fee to
17        recover the cost of the additional examination; provided,
18        however, that an examination conducted at the request  of
19        the  State  Treasurer pursuant to the Uniform Disposition
20        of Unclaimed Property Act shall not be deemed  to  be  an
21        additional examination under this Section. In lieu of the
22        method  and  amounts  set forth in this paragraph (a) for
23        the calculation of the Call Report Fee, the  Commissioner
24        may specify by rule that the Call Report Fees provided by
25        this  Section  may be assessed semiannually or some other
26        period and may provide in the rule the formula to be used
27        for calculating and assessing the  periodic  Call  Report
28        Fees to be paid by State banks.
29             (a-1)  If  in  the  opinion  of  the Commissioner an
30        emergency exists or appears likely, the Commissioner  may
31        assign an examiner or examiners to monitor the affairs of
32        a   State   bank   with   whatever   frequency  he  deems
33        appropriate, including but not limited to a daily  basis.
34        The reasonable and necessary expenses of the Commissioner
 
                            -404-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        during the period of the monitoring shall be borne by the
 2        subject  bank.   The Commissioner shall furnish the State
 3        bank a statement of time and expenses if requested to  do
 4        so  within  30  days  of the conclusion of the monitoring
 5        period.
 6             (a-2)  On and after January 1, 1990, the  reasonable
 7        and   necessary   expenses  of  the  Commissioner  during
 8        examination  of  the  performance  of   electronic   data
 9        processing services under subsection (2.5) shall be borne
10        by  the  banks  for  which the services are provided.  An
11        amount, based upon a  fee  structure  prescribed  by  the
12        Commissioner,  shall  be  paid by the banks or, after May
13        31, 1997, branches of out-of-state  banks  receiving  the
14        electronic  data  processing services along with the Call
15        Report  Fee  assessed  under  paragraph   (a)   of   this
16        subsection (3).
17             (a-3)  After   May  31,  1997,  the  reasonable  and
18        necessary expenses of the Commissioner during examination
19        of the performance of electronic data processing services
20        under subsection (2.5) at or on  behalf  of  branches  of
21        out-of-state  banks  shall  be  borne by the out-of-state
22        banks, unless those  expenses  are  borne  by  the  state
23        regulatory  authorities  that  chartered the out-of-state
24        banks, as determined by  cooperative  agreements  between
25        the  Commissioner  and  the  state regulatory authorities
26        that chartered the out-of-state banks.
27             (b)  "Fiscal year" for purposes of this  Section  48
28        is  defined  as a period beginning July 1 of any year and
29        ending June 30 of the next year. The  Commissioner  shall
30        receive  for each fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal
31        year ending June 30, 1987, a contingent fee equal to  the
32        lesser  of  the  aggregate  of the fees paid by all State
33        banks under paragraph (a)  of  subsection  (3)  for  that
34        year, or the amount, if any, whereby the aggregate of the
 
                            -405-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        administration expenses, as defined in paragraph (c), for
 2        that  fiscal year exceeds the sum of the aggregate of the
 3        fees payable by all  State  banks  for  that  year  under
 4        paragraph   (a)  of  subsection  (3),  plus  any  amounts
 5        transferred into the Bank and Trust Company Fund from the
 6        State Pensions Fund for that year, plus all other amounts
 7        collected by the Commissioner for  that  year  under  any
 8        other  provision  of  this Act, plus the aggregate of all
 9        fees collected for that year by  the  Commissioner  under
10        the  Corporate  Fiduciary Act, excluding the receivership
11        fees provided  for  in  Section  5-10  of  the  Corporate
12        Fiduciary  Act,  and  the Foreign Banking Office Act. The
13        aggregate amount of the contingent fee  thus  arrived  at
14        for   any  fiscal  year  shall  be  apportioned  amongst,
15        assessed upon, and paid by the State  banks  and  foreign
16        banking   corporations,   respectively,   in   the   same
17        proportion  that  the  fee of each under paragraph (a) of
18        subsection (3), respectively, for that year bears to  the
19        aggregate  for  that  year  of  the  fees collected under
20        paragraph (a) of subsection (3). The aggregate amount  of
21        the  contingent  fee,  and  the  portion  thereof  to  be
22        assessed   upon  each  State  bank  and  foreign  banking
23        corporation, respectively, shall  be  determined  by  the
24        Commissioner  and  shall  be  paid by each, respectively,
25        within 120 days of the close of the period for which  the
26        contingent  fee  is  computed  and  is  payable,  and the
27        Commissioner shall give 20 days  advance  notice  of  the
28        amount  of  the  contingent fee payable by the State bank
29        and of the date fixed by the Commissioner for payment  of
30        the fee.
31             (c)  The  "administration  expenses"  for any fiscal
32        year shall mean the ordinary and contingent expenses  for
33        that  year  incident  to making the examinations provided
34        for by, and for otherwise administering,  this  Act,  the
 
                            -406-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        Corporate Fiduciary Act, excluding the expenses paid from
 2        the  Corporate Fiduciary Receivership account in the Bank
 3        and Trust Company Fund, the Foreign Banking  Office  Act,
 4        the  Electronic  Fund Transfer Act, and the Illinois Bank
 5        Examiners'  Education  Foundation  Act,   including   all
 6        salaries   and   other  compensation  paid  for  personal
 7        services rendered for the State by officers or  employees
 8        of  the  State, including the Commissioner and the Deputy
 9        Commissioners,  all  expenditures   for   telephone   and
10        telegraph  charges,  postage  and  postal charges, office
11        stationery, supplies and services, and  office  furniture
12        and  equipment,  including  typewriters  and  copying and
13        duplicating machines and filing  equipment,  surety  bond
14        premiums,  and  travel  expenses  of  those  officers and
15        employees, employees, expenditures  or  charges  for  the
16        acquisition,  enlargement  or  improvement of, or for the
17        use of, any office  space,  building,  or  structure,  or
18        expenditures   for   the   maintenance   thereof  or  for
19        furnishing heat, light, or power  with  respect  thereto,
20        all  to  the  extent that those expenditures are directly
21        incidental to such examinations  or  administration.  The
22        Commissioner  shall  not be required by paragraphs (c) or
23        (d-1) of this subsection (3) to maintain  in  any  fiscal
24        year's  budget appropriated reserves for accrued vacation
25        and accrued sick leave that is required  to  be  paid  to
26        employees  of  the Commissioner upon termination of their
27        service with the Commissioner in an amount that  is  more
28        than  is  reasonably  anticipated to be necessary for any
29        anticipated turnover in employees, whether due to  normal
30        attrition   or   due   to   layoffs,   terminations,   or
31        resignations.
32             (d)  The  aggregate  of  all  fees  collected by the
33        Commissioner under this Act, the Corporate Fiduciary Act,
34        or the Foreign Banking Office Act on and  after  July  1,
 
                            -407-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        1979,  shall  be paid promptly after receipt of the same,
 2        accompanied by a detailed  statement  thereof,  into  the
 3        State  treasury  and shall be set apart in a special fund
 4        to be known as the "Bank and Trust Company Fund",  except
 5        as  provided  in paragraph (c) of subsection (11) of this
 6        Section.  All earnings received from investments of funds
 7        in the Bank and Trust Company Fund shall be deposited  in
 8        the  Bank  and Trust Company Fund and may be used for the
 9        same purposes as fees deposited in that Fund.  The amount
10        from time to time  deposited  into  the  Bank  and  Trust
11        Company  Fund  shall  be  used  to  offset  the  ordinary
12        administrative  expenses of the Commissioner of Banks and
13        Real Estate as defined in this Section. Nothing  in  this
14        amendatory  Act  of  1979  shall  prevent  continuing the
15        practice   of   paying   expenses   involving   salaries,
16        retirement, social  security,  and  State-paid  insurance
17        premiums  of  State  officers  by appropriations from the
18        General Revenue Fund.  However, the General Revenue  Fund
19        shall  be reimbursed for those payments made on and after
20        July 1, 1979, by an annual transfer  of  funds  from  the
21        Bank and Trust Company Fund.
22             (d-1)  Adequate funds shall be available in the Bank
23        and  Trust  Company  Fund to permit the timely payment of
24        administration expenses.  In each fiscal year  the  total
25        administration  expenses shall be deducted from the total
26        fees collected by  the  Commissioner  and  the  remainder
27        transferred  into  the  Cash Flow Reserve Account, unless
28        the balance of the Cash Flow Reserve Account prior to the
29        transfer  equals  or  exceeds  one-fourth  of  the  total
30        initial appropriations from the Bank  and  Trust  Company
31        Fund for the subsequent year, in which case the remainder
32        shall  be  credited  to  State  banks and foreign banking
33        corporations and  applied  against  their  fees  for  the
34        subsequent  year.  The amount credited to each State bank
 
                            -408-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        and foreign banking corporation  shall  be  in  the  same
 2        proportion  as  the Call Report Fees paid by each for the
 3        year bear to the total Call Report Fees collected for the
 4        year.  If, after a transfer  to  the  Cash  Flow  Reserve
 5        Account  is  made  or  if  no  remainder is available for
 6        transfer, the balance of the Cash Flow Reserve Account is
 7        less than one-fourth of the total initial  appropriations
 8        for  the  subsequent  year  and the amount transferred is
 9        less than 5% of the total Call Report Fees for the  year,
10        additional  amounts  needed to make the transfer equal to
11        5% of the total Call Report Fees for the  year  shall  be
12        apportioned amongst, assessed upon, and paid by the State
13        banks  and  foreign  banking  corporations  in  the  same
14        proportion   that   the   Call   Report   Fees  of  each,
15        respectively, for the year bear to the total Call  Report
16        Fees  collected  for  the  year.   The additional amounts
17        assessed shall be transferred into the Cash Flow  Reserve
18        Account.   For  purposes  of  this  paragraph  (d-1), the
19        calculation of the fees  collected  by  the  Commissioner
20        shall  exclude  the  receivership  fees  provided  for in
21        Section 5-10 of the Corporate Fiduciary Act.
22             (e)  The Commissioner may upon  request  certify  to
23        any public record in his keeping and shall have authority
24        to levy a reasonable charge for issuing certifications of
25        any public record in his keeping.
26             (f)  In  addition  to  fees  authorized elsewhere in
27        this Act, the Commissioner  may,  in  connection  with  a
28        review,  approval,  or  provision  of  a  service, levy a
29        reasonable charge to recover  the  cost  of  the  review,
30        approval, or service.
31        (4)  Nothing  contained in this Act shall be construed to
32    limit the obligation relative to examinations and reports  of
33    any  State  bank, deposits in which are to any extent insured
34    by the United States or any agency thereof, nor to  limit  in
 
                            -409-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    any  way  the  powers  of  the Commissioner with reference to
 2    examinations and reports of that bank.
 3        (5)  The  nature  and  condition  of  the  assets  in  or
 4    investment of any bonus, pension, or profit sharing plan  for
 5    officers  or  employees of every State bank or, after May 31,
 6    1997, branch of an out-of-state bank shall be  deemed  to  be
 7    included  in  the  affairs of that State bank or branch of an
 8    out-of-state bank subject to examination by the  Commissioner
 9    under  the  provisions of subsection (2) of this Section, and
10    if the Commissioner shall find from an examination  that  the
11    condition of or operation of the investments or assets of the
12    plan  is unlawful, fraudulent, or unsafe, or that any trustee
13    has  abused  his  trust,  the  Commissioner  shall,  if   the
14    situation so found by the Commissioner shall not be corrected
15    to his satisfaction within 60 days after the Commissioner has
16    given  notice  to the board of directors of the State bank or
17    out-of-state bank of his findings, report the  facts  to  the
18    Attorney  General  who  shall thereupon institute proceedings
19    against the State bank or out-of-state  bank,  the  board  of
20    directors  thereof,  or  the  trustees under such plan as the
21    nature of the case may require.
22        (6)  The Commissioner shall have the power:
23             (a)  To promulgate reasonable rules for the  purpose
24        of administering the provisions of this Act.
25             (a-5)  To  impose  conditions on any approval issued
26        by the Commissioner if he determines that the  conditions
27        are  necessary or appropriate.  These conditions shall be
28        imposed in writing and shall continue in effect  for  the
29        period prescribed by the Commissioner.
30             (b)  To  issue  orders  against  any  person, if the
31        Commissioner has reasonable  cause  to  believe  that  an
32        unsafe  or  unsound  banking  practice  has  occurred, is
33        occurring, or is  about  to  occur,  if  any  person  has
34        violated,  is  violating, or is about to violate any law,
 
                            -410-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        rule, or written agreement with the Commissioner, or  for
 2        the  purpose of administering the provisions of this Act,
 3        and any rule promulgated in accordance with this Act.
 4             (b-1)  To  enter  into  agreements   with   a   bank
 5        establishing  a  program  to correct the condition of the
 6        bank or its practices.
 7             (c)  To appoint hearing officers to execute  any  of
 8        the powers granted to the Commissioner under this Section
 9        for  the  purpose  of administering this Act and any rule
10        promulgated in accordance with this Act and otherwise  to
11        authorize,  in  writing,  an  officer  or employee of the
12        Office of Banks and Real Estate to  exercise  his  powers
13        under this Act.
14             (d)  To   subpoena   witnesses,   to   compel  their

 5    reasonable promise of safe and sound operation of  the  State
 6    bank,  the Commissioner may issue an order of removal. If, in
 7    the  opinion  of  the  Commissioner,  any  former   director,
 8    officer, employee, or agent of a State bank or any subsidiary
 9    or bank holding company of the bank, prior to the termination

21    would not have assured reasonable promise of safe  and  sound
22    operation  of  the  State bank, the Commissioner may issue an
23    order prohibiting that person from  further  service  with  a
24    bank or any subsidiary or bank holding company of the bank as

 9    bank  of which he is a director, officer, employee, or agent,
10    whereupon he shall cease to be a director, officer, employee,
11    or agent of that bank.   The  Commissioner  may  institute  a
12    civil  action  against the director, officer, or agent of the
13    State bank or, after May 31,  1997,  of  the  branch  of  the

17    bank,  to  enforce compliance with or to enjoin any violation
18    of the terms of the  order.  Any  person  who  has  been  the
19    subject  of  an  order  of removal or an order of prohibition
20    issued by  the Commissioner under this subsection or  Section
21    5-6  of  the Corporate Fiduciary Act may not thereafter serve

26    licensure  or regulation by the Commissioner or the Office of
27    Banks and Real Estate unless  the  Commissioner  has  granted
28    prior approval in writing.

 1    with  this  Act,  any order of the Commissioner, or any other

 3    unsound banking practice.
 4        (9)  The Commissioner may impose civil penalties of up to

12    designated by law to  exercise  supervision  over  banks  and

12        Section 44.  The Transmitters of Money Act is amended  by
13    changing Section 92 as follows:

14        (205 ILCS 657/92)
15        Sec. 92.  Receivership.
16        (a)  If  the  Director  determines  that  a  licensee  is
17    insolvent  or  is violating this Act, he or she may appoint a
18    receiver.  Under the direction of the Director, the  receiver
19    shall,  for  the  purpose of receivership, take possession of
20    and title to the books, records, and assets of the  licensee.
21    The  Director may require the receiver to provide security in
22    an amount the Director deems proper.  Upon appointment of the
23    receiver, the Director shall have published, once  each  week
24    for  4  consecutive  weeks  in  a  newspaper having a general
25    circulation in the community, a notice informing all  persons
26    who  have  claims against the licensee to present them to the
27    receiver. Within 10 days after the receiver takes possession,
28    the licensee may apply  to  the  Circuit  Court  of  Sangamon
29    County  to  enjoin  further  proceedings.  The  receiver  may
30    operate  the  business  until  the  Director  determines that
 
                            -417-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    possession should be restored to the  licensee  or  that  the
 2    business should be liquidated.
 3        (b)  If  the  Director  determines  that  a  business  in
 4    receivership should be liquidated, he or she shall direct the
 5    Attorney  General to file a complaint in the Circuit Court of
 6    the county in which the business is located, in the  name  of
 7    the  People  of  the  State  of  Illinois,  for  the  orderly
 8    liquidation  and  dissolution  of  the  business  and  for an
 9    injunction restraining the  licensee  and  its  officers  and
10    directors  from  continuing  the  operation  of the business.
11    Within 30 days after the day the Director determines that the
12    business should be liquidated, the receiver shall  file  with
13    the  Director and with the clerk of the court that has charge
14    of the liquidation a correct list of all creditors, as  shown
15    by  the  licensee's books and records, who have not presented
16    their claims.  The list shall state the amount of  the  claim
17    after  allowing all just credits, deductions, and set-offs as
18    shown by the licensee's books.  These claims shall be  deemed
19    proven unless some interested party files an objection within
20    the  time  fixed  by the Director or court that has charge of
21    the liquidation.
22        (c)  The  General  Assembly  finds  and   declares   that
23    transmitters   of  money  debt  management  services  provide
24    important and vital services to  Illinois  citizens.   It  is
25    therefore  declared  to  be  the  policy  of  this State that
26    customers who receive these services must be  protected  from
27    interruptions  of  services.  To carry out this policy and to
28    insure that customers of a licensee are protected  if  it  is
29    determined   that   a  business  in  receivership  should  be
30    liquidated, the Director shall make a distribution of  moneys
31    collected by the receiver in the following order of priority:
32             (1)  Allowed   claims   for   the  actual  necessary
33        expenses  of  the  receivership  of  the  business  being
34        liquidated, including:
 
                            -418-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1                  (A)  reasonable receiver's fees and  receiver's
 2             attorney's fees approved by the Director;

 4             examinations into the condition of the receivership;
 5                  (C)  all expenses incurred by the Director that
 6             are  incident  to  possession  and  control  of  any
 7             property or records of the licensee's business; and
 8                  (D)  reasonable  expenses   incurred   by   the
 9             Director  as  the  result  of business agreements or
10             contractual arrangements necessary  to  insure  that
11             the  services  of  the licensee are delivered to the
12             community  without  interruption.    These  business
13             agreements or contractual arrangements may  include,
14             but  are  not  limited  to,  agreements  made by the
15             Director, or by the receiver with  the  approval  of
16             the  Director,  with  banks,  bonding companies, and
17             other types of financial institutions.
18             (2)  Allowed unsecured claims for wages or salaries,
19        excluding vacation, severance, and sick leave pay  earned
20        by  employees  within 90 days before the appointment of a
21        receiver.
22             (3)  Allowed unsecured  claims  of   any   tax,  and
23        interest  and penalty on the tax.
24             (4)  Allowed  unsecured  claims,  other  than a kind
25        specified in items (1), (2), and (3) of this  subsection,
26        filed  with  the  Director  within  the time the Director
27        fixes for filing claims.
28             (5)  Allowed unsecured claims,  other  than  a  kind
29        specified  in items (1), (2), and (3) of this subsection,
30        filed with the Director after the time fixed  for  filing
31        claims by the Director.
32             (6)  Allowed  creditor  claims asserted by an owner,
33        member, or stockholder of the business in liquidation.
34             (7)  After one year from the  final  dissolution  of
 
                            -419-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        the  licensee's  business, all assets not used to satisfy
 2        allowed claims shall  be  distributed  pro  rata  to  the
 3        owner, owners, members, or stockholders of the business.
 4        The  Director  shall  pay  all  claims  of equal priority
 5    according to the schedule established in this subsection  and
 6    shall  not  pay  claims  of  lower  priority until all higher
 7    priority claims are satisfied.  If  insufficient  assets  are
 8    available  to meet all claims of equal priority, those assets
 9    shall be  distributed  pro  rata  among  those  claims.   All
10    unclaimed  assets  of  a licensee and the licensee's business
11    shall be deposited with the Director to  be   paid  out  when
12    proper claims are presented to the Director.
13        (d)  Upon the order of the circuit court of the county in
14    which  the business being liquidated is located, the receiver
15    may sell or compound any bad or doubtful debt,  and  on  like
16    order  may sell the personal property of the business on such
17    terms as the court approves.  The receiver shall  succeed  to
18    whatever  rights  or  remedies the unsecured creditors of the
19    business may have against the  owner  or  owners,  operators,
20    stockholders,  directors,  members,  managers,  or  officers,
21    arising  out of their claims against the licensee's business,
22    but nothing contained in this  Section  shall  prevent  those
23    creditors   from  filing  their  claims  in  the  liquidation
24    proceeding.   The  receiver  may  enforce  those  rights   or
25    remedies in any court of competent jurisdiction.
26        (e)  At  the  close of a receivership, the receiver shall
27    turn over to the Director all books of account and ledgers of
28    the business for preservation.  The Director shall  hold  all
29    records of receiverships received at any time for a period of
30    2 years after the close of the receivership.  The records may
31    be  destroyed  at  the termination of the 2-year period.  All
32    expenses of the receivership including, but not  limited  to,

 1    examinations into the condition of the licensee's business or
 2    the receivership, and all expenses incident to the possession
 3    and  control  of  any  property  or  records  of the business
 4    incurred by the Director shall be paid out of the  assets  of
 5    the licensee's business.  These expenses shall be paid before
 6    all other claims.
 7        (f)  Upon  the  filing  of  a  complaint  by the Attorney
 8    General for the orderly  liquidation  and  dissolution  of  a
 9    licensee's  business,  as  provided  in this Act, all pending
10    suits and actions upon unsecured claims against the  business
11    shall   abate.   Nothing  contained  in  this  Act,  however,
12    prevents these claimants from  filing  their  claims  in  the
13    liquidation  proceeding. If a suit or an action is instituted
14    or maintained by the  receiver  on  any  bond  or  policy  of
15    insurance  issued  pursuant  to the requirements of this Act,
16    the bonding or insurance company  sued  shall  not  have  the
17    right  to  interpose  or maintain any counterclaim based upon
18    subrogation, upon any express or  implied  agreement  of,  or
19    right to, indemnity or exoneration, or upon any other express
20    or  implied  agreement with, or right against, the licensee's
21    business. Nothing contained in this Act prevents the  bonding
22    or  insurance  company  from filing this type of claim in the
23    liquidation proceeding.
24        (g)  A licensee may not terminate its affairs  and  close
25    up  its  business  unless  it  has  first  deposited with the
26    Director an amount of  money  equal  to  all  of  its  debts,
27    liabilities,  and  lawful  demands  against  it including the
28    costs and  expenses  of  a  proceeding  under  this  Section,
29    surrendered  to  the Director its license, and filed with the
30    Director a statement of termination signed  by  the  licensee
31    containing a pronouncement of intent to close up its business
32    and  liquidate  its  liabilities  and containing a sworn list
33    itemizing in full all of its debts, liabilities,  and  lawful
34    demands  against it.  Corporate licensees must attach to, and
 
                            -421-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    make a part of the statement of  termination,  a  copy  of  a
 2    resolution  providing  for  the termination and closing up of
 3    the licensee's affairs, certified by  the  secretary  of  the
 4    licensee  and  duly adopted at a shareholders' meeting by the
 5    holders of at least  two-thirds  of  the  outstanding  shares
 6    entitled  to  vote  at the meeting.  Upon the filing with the
 7    Director of a statement of termination,  the  Director  shall
 8    cause  notice  of  that action to be published once each week
 9    for 3 consecutive weeks in  a  public  newspaper  of  general
10    circulation  published  in  the  city  or  village  where the
11    business is located, and if no newspaper is published in that
12    place, then in a  public  newspaper  of  general  circulation
13    nearest  to that city or village.  The publication shall give
14    notice  that  the  debts,  liabilities,  and  lawful  demands
15    against the business will be redeemed by  the  Director  upon
16    demand  in  writing  made  by  the owner thereof, at any time
17    within 3 years after the date of  first  publication.   After
18    the  expiration  of  the  3-year  period,  the Director shall
19    return to the person or persons designated in  the  statement
20    of  termination  to  receive repayment, and in the proportion
21    specified in that statement, any balance of  money  remaining
22    in  his  or  her  possession after first deducting all unpaid
23    costs and expenses incurred in connection with  a  proceeding
24    under this Section. The Director shall receive for his or her
25    services,  exclusive  of costs and expenses, 2% of any amount
26    up to $5,000 and  1%  of  any  amount  in  excess  of  $5,000
27    deposited with him or her under this Section by any business.
28    Nothing  contained in this Section shall affect or impair the
29    liability of any bonding or insurance company on any bond  or
30    insurance  policy  issued  under  this  Act  relating  to the
31    business.

 1    Facility  Residents  Reporting  Act  is  amended  by changing
 2    Section 6.2 as follows:

 3        (210 ILCS 30/6.2) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 4166.2)
 4        (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2004)
 5        Sec. 6.2.  Inspector General.
 6        (a)  The Governor shall appoint,  and  the  Senate  shall
 7    confirm,  an  Inspector General who shall function within the
 8    Department of Human Services and report to the  Secretary  of
 9    Human Services and the Governor.  The Inspector General shall
10    investigate  reports  of suspected abuse or neglect (as those
11    terms are defined in Section 3 of this Act)  of  patients  or
12    residents  in any mental health or developmental disabilities
13    facility operated by the Department  of  Human  Services  and
14    shall have authority to investigate and take immediate action
15    on  reports  of  abuse  or  neglect  of  recipients,  whether
16    patients  or residents, in any mental health or developmental
17    disabilities  facility  or  program  that  is   licensed   or
18    certified  by  the Department of Human Services (as successor
19    to  the  Department  of  Mental  Health   and   Developmental
20    Disabilities)  or  that  is funded by the Department of Human
21    Services (as successor to the Department of Mental Health and
22    Developmental Disabilities) and is not licensed or  certified
23    by any agency of the State.  At the specific, written request
24    of  an agency of the State other than the Department of Human
25    Services (as successor to the Department of Mental Health and
26    Developmental  Disabilities),  the  Inspector   General   may
27    cooperate  in  investigating  reports of abuse and neglect of
28    persons with mental illness  or  persons  with  developmental
29    disabilities.    The   Inspector   General   shall   have  no
30    supervision over or  involvement  in  routine,  programmatic,
31    licensure,  or  certification operations of the Department of
32    Human Services or any of its funded agencies.
33        The Inspector General shall promulgate rules establishing
 
                            -423-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    minimum requirements for reporting allegations of  abuse  and
 2    neglect    and   initiating,   conducting,   and   completing
 3    investigations.  The  promulgated  rules  shall  clearly  set
 4    forth  that in instances where 2 or more State agencies could
 5    investigate an allegation of abuse or neglect, the  Inspector
 6    General  shall not conduct an investigation that is redundant
 7    to an investigation conducted by another  State  agency.  The
 8    rules  shall  establish  criteria for determining, based upon
 9    the nature of  the  allegation,  the  appropriate  method  of
10    investigation, which may include, but need not be limited to,
11    site  visits,  telephone  contacts,  or  requests for written
12    responses from agencies. The rules shall also clarify how the
13    Office of the  Inspector  General  shall  interact  with  the
14    licensing  unit  of  the  Department  of  Human  Services  in
15    investigations  of  allegations  of  abuse  or  neglect.  Any
16    allegations or investigations of  reports  made  pursuant  to
17    this  Act  shall  remain confidential until a final report is
18    completed. The resident or patient who allegedly  was  abused
19    or  neglected and his or her legal guardian shall be informed
20    by the facility or agency of the report of alleged  abuse  or
21    neglect. Final reports regarding unsubstantiated or unfounded
22    allegations  shall  remain  confidential,  except  that final
23    reports may be disclosed pursuant to Section 6 of this Act.
24        The Inspector General shall be appointed for a term of  4
25    years.
26        When   the   Office   of   the   Inspector   General  has
27    substantiated a case  of  abuse  or  neglect,  the  Inspector
28    General  shall  include in the final report any mitigating or
29    aggravating circumstances that  were  identified  during  the
30    investigation.   Upon  determination that a report of neglect
31    is substantiated, the Inspector General shall then  determine
32    whether such neglect rises to the level of egregious neglect.
33        (b)  The  Inspector  General  shall within 24 hours after
34    receiving a report of suspected abuse  or  neglect  determine
 
                            -424-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    whether the evidence indicates that any possible criminal act
 2    has been committed. If he determines that a possible criminal
 3    act has been committed, or that special expertise is required
 4    in   the  investigation,  he  shall  immediately  notify  the
 5    Department of State Police.  The Department of  State  Police
 6    shall  investigate  any  report indicating a possible murder,
 7    rape, or other felony. All investigations  conducted  by  the
 8    Inspector  General shall be conducted in a manner designed to
 9    ensure the preservation of evidence for  possible  use  in  a
10    criminal prosecution.
11        (b-5)  The  Inspector  General shall make a determination
12    to accept or reject a preliminary report of the investigation
13    of  alleged   abuse   or   neglect   based   on   established
14    investigative  procedures.  Notice of the Inspector General's
15    determination must be given to the person who  claims  to  be
16    the  victim of the abuse or neglect, to the person or persons
17    alleged to have been responsible for abuse or neglect, and to
18    the facility or agency. The facility or agency or the  person
19    or  persons alleged to have been responsible for the abuse or
20    neglect and the person who claims to be  the  victim  of  the
21    abuse or neglect may request clarification or reconsideration
22    based   on  additional  information.   For  cases  where  the
23    allegation  of  abuse  or  neglect  is   substantiated,   the
24    Inspector  General  shall  require  the facility or agency to
25    submit a written  response.   The  written  response  from  a
26    facility  or  agency  shall address in a concise and reasoned
27    manner the actions that the agency or facility will  take  or
28    has  taken  to  protect the resident or patient from abuse or
29    neglect,  prevent  reoccurrences,  and   eliminate   problems
30    identified  and  shall  include implementation and completion
31    dates for all such action.
32        (c)  The Inspector General shall, within 10 calendar days
33    after the transmittal date of a completed investigation where
34    abuse or neglect is substantiated or administrative action is
 
                            -425-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    recommended, provide a complete report on  the  case  to  the
 2    Secretary  of  Human  Services and to the agency in which the
 3    abuse or neglect is alleged to have  happened.  The  complete
 4    report  shall  include  a written response from the agency or
 5    facility operated by the State to the Inspector General  that
 6    addresses  in  a concise and reasoned manner the actions that
 7    the agency or facility will take or has taken to protect  the
 8    resident   or   patient   from   abuse  or  neglect,  prevent
 9    reoccurrences, and eliminate problems  identified  and  shall
10    include  implementation  and  completion  dates  for all such
11    action.  The Secretary of  Human  Services  shall  accept  or
12    reject  the  response  and  establish how the Department will
13    determine  whether  the  facility  or  program  followed  the
14    approved response.   The  Secretary  may  require  Department
15    personnel  to  visit  the  facility  or  agency for training,
16    technical    assistance,    programmatic,    licensure,    or
17    certification  purposes.   Administrative  action,  including
18    sanctions, may be applied should  the  Secretary  reject  the
19    response  or should the facility or agency fail to follow the
20    approved response.  The facility or agency shall  inform  the
21    resident  or  patient  and  the  legal  guardian  whether the
22    reported allegation was  substantiated,  unsubstantiated,  or
23    unfounded.   There shall be an appeals process for any person
24    or  agency  that  is  subject  to  any  action  based  on   a
25    recommendation or recommendations.
26        (d)  The   Inspector   General   may   recommend  to  the
27    Departments of Public Health and Human Services sanctions  to
28    be   imposed   against   mental   health   and  developmental
29    disabilities  facilities  under  the  jurisdiction   of   the
30    Department of Human Services for the protection of residents,
31    including  appointment  of  on-site  monitors  or  receivers,
32    transfer  or  relocation  of residents, and closure of units.
33    The Inspector General may seek the assistance of the Attorney
34    General or any of the several State's attorneys  in  imposing
 
                            -426-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    such sanctions.
 2        (e)  The  Inspector  General  shall establish and conduct
 3    periodic   training   programs   for   Department   employees
 4    concerning the prevention and reporting of neglect and abuse.
 5        (f)  The Inspector General shall at all times be  granted
 6    access  to  any  mental  health or developmental disabilities
 7    facility operated by  the  Department,  shall  establish  and
 8    conduct  unannounced site visits to those facilities at least
 9    once annually, and shall be granted access, for  the  purpose
10    of  investigating  a  report  of  abuse  or  neglect,  to any
11    facility or program funded by the Department that is  subject
12    under  the provisions of this Section to investigation by the
13    Inspector General for a report of abuse or neglect.
14        (g)  Nothing in this Section shall  limit  investigations
15    by  the  Department  of  Human Services that may otherwise be
16    required by law or that may be necessary in that Department's
17    capacity as the central administrative authority  responsible
18    for  the  operation  of State mental health and developmental
19    disability facilities.
20        (g-5)  After notice and an opportunity for a hearing that
21    is separate and distinct from the  Office  of  the  Inspector
22    General's appeals process as implemented under subsection (c)
23    of  this  Section,  the Inspector General shall report to the
24    Department of  Public  Health's  nurse  aide  registry  under
25    Section 3-206.01 of the Nursing Home Care Act the identity of
26    individuals  against  whom  there  has  been  a substantiated
27    finding of physical or sexual abuse or egregious neglect of a
28    service recipient.
29        Nothing in this subsection shall diminish or  impair  the
30    rights of a person who is a member of a collective bargaining
31    unit  pursuant  to the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act or
32    pursuant to any federal labor statute. An individual who is a
33    member of a collective bargaining  unit  as  described  above
34    shall  not  be  reported to the Department of Public Health's
 
                            -427-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    nurse aide registry until the exhaustion of that individual's
 2    grievance and arbitration rights, or until 3 months after the
 3    initiation of the grievance process, whichever occurs  first,
 4    provided that the Department of Human Services' hearing under
 5    subsection (c), that is separate and distinct from the Office
 6    of  the  Inspector  General's appeals process, has concluded.
 7    Notwithstanding anything hereinafter or previously  provided,
 8    if  an action taken by an employer against an individual as a
 9    result of the circumstances that led to a finding of physical
10    or sexual abuse or  egregious  neglect  is  later  overturned
11    under  a  grievance  or arbitration procedure provided for in
12    Section 8 of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act or under
13    a collective bargaining agreement, the report must be removed
14    from the registry.
15        The Department of  Human  Services  shall  promulgate  or
16    amend   rules   as  necessary  or  appropriate  to  establish
17    procedures for  reporting  to  the  registry,  including  the
18    definition of egregious neglect, procedures for notice to the
19    individual  and  victim,  appeal  and hearing procedures, and
20    petition for removal of the report  from  the  registry.  The
21    portion  of  the  rules  pertaining to hearings shall provide
22    that, at the hearing, both parties may  present  written  and
23    oral  evidence. The Department shall be required to establish
24    by a preponderance of the evidence that  the  Office  of  the
25    Inspector  General's  finding  of physical or sexual abuse or
26    egregious neglect warrants reporting  to  the  Department  of
27    Public Health's nurse aide registry under Section 3-206.01 of
28    the Nursing Home Care Act.
29        Notice  to  the  individual  shall  include  a  clear and
30    concise statement of the grounds on which the report  to  the
31    registry is based and notice of the opportunity for a hearing
32    to contest the report. The Department of Human Services shall
33    provide  the  notice  by  certified  mail  to  the last known
34    address  of  the  individual.  The  notice  shall  give   the
 
                            -428-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    individual  an opportunity to contest the report in a hearing
 2    before the Department  of  Human  Services  or  to  submit  a
 3    written  response  to  the  findings  instead of requesting a
 4    hearing. If the individual does not request a hearing  or  if
 5    after  notice  and a hearing the Department of Human Services
 6    finds that the report is valid, the finding shall be included
 7    as part of the registry, as well as a  brief  statement  from
 8    the  reported  individual  if  he  or  she  chooses to make a
 9    statement.  The  Department  of  Public  Health  shall   make
10    available to the public information reported to the registry.
11    In a case of inquiries concerning an individual listed in the
12    registry,  any  information disclosed concerning a finding of
13    abuse  or  neglect  shall  also  include  disclosure  of  the
14    individual's brief statement in the registry relating to  the
15    reported  finding  or include a clear and accurate summary of
16    the statement.
17        At  any  time  after  the  report  of  the  registry,  an
18    individual may petition the Department of Human Services  for
19    removal  from the registry of the finding against him or her.
20    Upon receipt of such a  petition,  the  Department  of  Human
21    Services  shall  conduct  an investigation and hearing on the
22    petition.  Upon completion of the investigation and  hearing,
23    the  Department of Human Services shall report the removal of
24    the finding to the registry unless the  Department  of  Human
25    Services  determines  that  removal  is  not  in  the  public
26    interest.
27        (h)  This Section is repealed on January 1, 2004.

 2        Sec. 3-206.01.  Nurse aide registry.
 3        (a)  The  Department  shall  establish  and  maintain   a
 4    registry of all individuals who have satisfactorily completed
 5    the  training  required by Section 3-206.  The registry shall
 6    include the name of the nursing assistant, habilitation aide,
 7    or child care  aide,  his  or  her  current  address,  Social
 8    Security  number,  and  the date and location of the training
 9    course completed by the  individual,  and  the  date  of  the
10    individual's  last  criminal  records  check.  Any individual
11    placed on the registry is required to inform  the  Department
12    of  any  change  of address within 30 days.  A facility shall
13    not employ an individual as a nursing assistant, habilitation
14    aide, or child care aide unless the facility has inquired  of
15    the  Department  as to information in the registry concerning
16    the individual  and  shall  not  employ  anyone  not  on  the
17    registry  unless  the  individual  is  enrolled in a training
18    program under paragraph (5)  of  subsection  (a)  of  Section
19    3-206 of this Act.
20        If   the  Department  finds  that  a  nursing  assistant,
21    habilitation aide, or child care aide has abused a  resident,
22    neglected a resident, or misappropriated resident property in
23    a  facility,  the  Department  shall notify the individual of
24    this finding by certified mail sent to the address  contained
25    in  the  registry.    The notice shall give the individual an
26    opportunity to contest the finding in a  hearing  before  the
27    Department or to submit a written response to the findings in
28    lieu  of requesting a hearing.  If, after a hearing or if the
29    individual does not request a hearing, the  Department  finds
30    that  the individual abused a resident, neglected a resident,
31    or misappropriated  resident  property  in  a  facility,  the
32    finding  shall be included as part of the registry as well as
33    a brief statement from the individual, if he or  she  chooses
34    to   make   such  a  statement.  The  Department  shall  make

 1    information in the registry available to the public.  In  the
 2    case  of  inquiries  to the registry concerning an individual
 3    listed in the registry, any information disclosed  concerning
 4    such a finding shall also include disclosure of any statement
 5    in  the  registry  relating  to  the  finding  or a clear and

 2        Sec. 155.38. 155.37.  Use of credit reports in connection
 3    with certain policies.
 4        (a)  This   Section  applies  to  policies  of  insurance
 5    defined in subsections (a), (b), and (c) of  Section  143.13,
 6    except  that  this  Section  does not apply to those personal
 7    lines policies defined in subsection (c)  of  Section  143.13
 8    that  could  be classified under clause (g) or (i) of Class 2
 9    of Section 4 or to policies of insurance subject  to  Article
10    IX 1/2.
11        (b)  An  insurance  company  authorized to do business in
12    this State may not refuse to  issue  or  renew  a  policy  of
13    insurance  solely  on the basis of a credit report.  An offer
14    by an insurance company to write a policy through an  insurer
15    that  is  an  affiliate,  as defined in Section 131.1 of this
16    Code, with continuous coverage does not constitute a  refusal
17    to  issue a policy or a nonrenewal within the meaning of this
18    Section.   "Credit  report"  means  a  collection   of   data
19    regarding  a  consumer's  credit history, credit capacity, or
20    credit worthiness that has been assembled or evaluated  by  a
21    consumer reporting agency as defined in 15 USC 1681a(f).
22        (c)  If a credit report is used in conjunction with other
23    criteria  to underwrite an application or renewal of a policy
24    of insurance, it may not include or be based upon  the  race,
25    income, gender, religion, or national origin of the applicant
26    or insured.
27        (d)  If a credit report is used in conjunction with other
28    criteria  to  refuse to issue or renew a policy of insurance,
29    the insurer shall provide the applicant or policyholder  with
30    a  notice  of the underwriting action taken.  For purposes of
31    this Section, compliance with the  notification  requirements
32    of  the  federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681 et
33    seq., shall be considered  to  be  in  compliance  with  this
34    Section.

 3        Sec. 370c.  Mental and emotional disorders.
 4        (a) (1)  On and after the effective date of this Section,
 5    every  insurer  which delivers, issues for delivery or renews
 6    or  modifies  group  A&H  policies  providing  coverage   for
 7    hospital  or  medical treatment or services for illness on an
 8    expense-incurred basis shall offer to the applicant or  group
 9    policyholder   subject   to   the   insurers   standards   of
10    insurability, coverage for reasonable and necessary treatment
11    and  services  for  mental, emotional or nervous disorders or
12    conditions, other than serious mental illnesses as defined in
13    item (2) of subsection (b), up to the limits provided in  the
14    policy  for  other  disorders  or  conditions, except (i) the
15    insured may be required to pay up to 50% of expenses incurred
16    as a result of the treatment or services, and (ii) the annual
17    benefit limit may be limited to the lesser of $10,000 or  25%
18    of the lifetime policy limit.
19        (2)  Each  insured  that is covered for mental, emotional
20    or nervous disorders or conditions shall be  free  to  select
21    the  physician  licensed  to  practice  medicine  in  all its
22    branches, licensed clinical psychologist,  licensed  clinical
23    social worker, or licensed clinical professional counselor of
24    his choice to treat such disorders, and the insurer shall pay
25    the  covered  charges  of such physician licensed to practice
26    medicine in all its branches, licensed clinical psychologist,
27    licensed  clinical  social  worker,  or   licensed   clinical
28    professional counselor up to the limits of coverage, provided
29    (i)  the  disorder  or  condition  treated  is covered by the
30    policy,  and  (ii)  the  physician,  licensed   psychologist,
31    licensed   clinical   social  worker,  or  licensed  clinical
32    professional counselor is authorized to provide said services
33    under the statutes of  this  State  and  in  accordance  with
 
                            -435-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    accepted principles of his profession.
 2        (3)  Insofar  as  this Section applies solely to licensed
 3    clinical social workers and  licensed  clinical  professional
 4    counselors,   those  persons  who  may  provide  services  to
 5    individuals shall do so after the  licensed  clinical  social
 6    worker   or  licensed  clinical  professional  counselor  has
 7    informed the patient  of  the  desirability  of  the  patient
 8    conferring  with the patient's primary care physician and the
 9    licensed  clinical  social  worker   or   licensed   clinical
10    professional  counselor  has provided written notification to
11    the patient's primary care physician, if any,  that  services
12    are  being  provided  to the patient.  That notification may,
13    however, be waived by the patient on a written  form.   Those
14    forms  shall  be  retained  by  the  licensed clinical social
15    worker or licensed  clinical  professional  counselor  for  a
16    period of not less than 5 years.
17        (b) (1)  An  insurer  that provides coverage for hospital
18    or medical expenses under a  group  policy  of  accident  and
19    health  insurance  or  health  care  plan amended, delivered,
20    issued,  or  renewed  after  the  effective  date   of   this
21    amendatory  Act  of  the  92nd General Assembly shall provide
22    coverage under the policy for  treatment  of  serious  mental
23    illness  under  the same terms and conditions as coverage for
24    hospital or medical expenses related to other  illnesses  and
25    diseases.   The  coverage  required  under  this Section must
26    provide  for   same   durational   limits,   amount   limits,
27    deductibles, and co-insurance requirements for serious mental
28    illness  as  are  provided  for other illnesses and diseases.
29    This subsection  does  not  apply  to  coverage  provided  to
30    employees by employers who have 50 or fewer employees.
31        (2)  "Serious   mental   illness"   means  the  following
32    psychiatric illnesses as defined in the most current  edition
33    of  the  Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) published by
34    the American Psychiatric Association:
 
                            -436-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             (A)  schizophrenia;
 2             (B)  paranoid and other psychotic disorders;
 3             (C)  bipolar    disorders     (hypomanic,     manic,
 4        depressive, and mixed);
 5             (D)  major  depressive  disorders (single episode or
 6        recurrent);
 7             (E)  schizoaffective    disorders    (bipolar     or
 8        depressive);
 9             (F)  pervasive developmental disorders;
10             (G)  obsessive-compulsive disorders;
11             (H)  depression in childhood and adolescence; and
12             (I)  panic disorder.
13        (3)  Upon  request of the reimbursing insurer, a provider
14    of treatment of serious mental illness shall furnish  medical
15    records  or  other  necessary  data  that  substantiate  that
16    initial  or  continued  treatment  is  at all times medically
17    necessary.  An insurer shall  provide  a  mechanism  for  the
18    timely  review  by  a  provider  holding the same license and
19    practicing in the same specialty as the  patient's  provider,
20    who is unaffiliated with the insurer, jointly selected by the
21    patient (or the patient's next of kin or legal representative
22    if  the patient is unable to act for himself or herself), the
23    patient's provider, and the insurer in the event of a dispute
24    between the insurer  and  patient's  provider  regarding  the
25    medical  necessity  of  a  treatment  proposed by a patient's
26    provider.  If the reviewing provider determines the treatment
27    to  be  medically  necessary,  the  insurer   shall   provide
28    reimbursement  for  the  treatment.   Future  contractual  or
29    employment  actions  by  the  insurer regarding the patient's
30    provider may not be based on the provider's participation  in
31    this procedure. Nothing prevents the insured from agreeing in
32    writing  to  continue  treatment at his or her expense.  When
33    making  a  determination  of  the  medical  necessity  for  a
34    treatment modality for serous mental illness, an insurer must
 
                            -437-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    make the determination in a manner that  is  consistent  with
 2    the  manner  used  to make that determination with respect to
 3    other  diseases  or  illnesses  covered  under  the   policy,
 4    including an appeals process.
 5        (4)  A group health benefit plan:
 6             (A)  shall   provide  coverage  based  upon  medical
 7        necessity for the following treatment of  mental  illness
 8        in each calendar year;
 9                  (i)  45 days of inpatient treatment; and
10                  (ii)  35   visits   for   outpatient  treatment
11             including group and individual outpatient treatment;
12             (B)  may not include a lifetime limit on the  number
13        of   days   of  inpatient  treatment  or  the  number  of
14        outpatient visits covered under the plan; and
15             (C)  shall   include   the   same   amount   limits,
16        deductibles,  copayments,  and  coinsurance  factors  for
17        serious mental illness as for physical illness.
18        (5)  An issuer of a group health  benefit  plan  may  not
19    count  toward  the number of outpatient visits required to be
20    covered under  this  Section  an  outpatient  visit  for  the
21    purpose   of   medication  management  and  shall  cover  the
22    outpatient visits under the same terms and conditions  as  it
23    covers  outpatient  visits  for  the  treatment  of  physical
24    illness.
25        (6)  An issuer of a group health benefit plan may provide
26    or  offer  coverage  required  under  this  Section through a
27    managed care plan.
28        (7)  This Section shall not be interpreted to  require  a
29    group  health  benefit plan to provide coverage for treatment
30    of:
31             (A)  an  addiction  to  a  controlled  substance  or
32        cannabis that is used in violation of law; or
33             (B)  mental illness resulting  from  the  use  of  a
34        controlled substance or cannabis in violation of law.

 5    institution, as defined in Section 1402 of  this  Code,  from
 6    obtaining  from  the  insured, the insurer, or the registered
 7    firm the expiration dates of an insurance  policy  placed  on

12        acquired in satisfaction of a debt or otherwise shall  be
13        valued  in  accordance with the applicable procedures for
14        that type of investment  contained  in  this  subsection.
15        For  purposes  of  applying the valuation procedures, the
16        purchase price shall be deemed to be the market value  at
17        the  time  the  investment is acquired or, in the case of

18    days  after  the service of such notice, (25 days in the case
19    of  excavation  relating  to  new  construction)   then   the

34        The Illinois Commerce  Commission  may  adopt  reasonable
 
                            -464-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    rules governing the negotiation procedures that are used by a
 2    telecommunications     carrier     during     precondemnation
 3    negotiations  for  the  purchase  of  land  rights-of-way and
 4    easements, including procedures for providing information  to
 5    the public and affected landowners concerning the project and
 6    the right-of-way easements sought in connection therewith.
 7        Such   rules   may  be  made  applicable  to  interstate,
 8    competitive   intrastate   and   noncompetitive    intrastate
 9    facilities,  without regard to whether such facilities or the
10    telecommunications carrier proposing to construct and operate
11    them would otherwise be  subject  to  the  Illinois  Commerce
12    Commission's  jurisdiction under the Public Utilities Act, as
13    now or hereafter amended.  However, as to facilities used  to
14    provide   exclusively   interstate  services  or  competitive
15    intrastate services or both, nothing in this Section  confers
16    any  power  upon the Commission (i) to require the disclosure
17    of proprietary, competitively sensitive, or cost  information
18    or  information  not known to the telecommunications carrier,
19    (ii) to determine  whether,  or  conduct  hearings  regarding
20    whether,  any proposed fiber optic or other facilities should
21    or should not  be  constructed  and  operated,  or  (iii)  to
22    determine  or  specify,  or  conduct hearings concerning, the
23    price or other terms or conditions of  the  purchase  of  the
24    right-of-way  easements  sought.  With  respect to facilities
25    used to provide any intrastate  services  classified  in  the
26    condemnor's  tariff as noncompetitive under Section 13-502 of
27    the Public Utilities Act,  the  rulemaking  powers  conferred
28    upon the Commission under this Section are in addition to any
29    rulemaking powers arising under the Public Utilities Act.
30        No telecommunications carrier shall exercise the power to
31    condemn  private  property  until  it has first substantially
32    complied with such rules with respect to the property  sought
33    to  be condemned.  If such rules call for providing notice or
34    information before  or  during  negotiations,  a  failure  to
 
                            -465-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    provide  such  notice  or  information shall not constitute a
 2    waiver of  the  rights  granted  in  this  Section,  but  the
 3    telecommunications carrier shall be liable for all reasonable
 4    attorney's   fees  of  that  landowner  resulting  from  such
 5    failure.

28    common  carrier,  or  contract  carrier   that   carries   or
29    transports  alcoholic  liquor for delivery within this State,
30    shall refuse to sell, deliver, or serve  alcoholic  beverages
31    to  any  person  who  is  unable  to produce adequate written
32    evidence of identity and of the fact that he or she  is  over
33    the  age  of  21  years, if requested by the licensee, agent,

 1        Adequate written evidence of  age  and  identity  of  the
 2    person  is  a document issued by a federal, state, county, or
 3    municipal  government,  or  subdivision  or  agency  thereof,
 4    including, but not limited to,  a  motor  vehicle  operator's
 5    license,  a registration certificate issued under the Federal
 6    Selective Service Act, or an identification card issued to  a
 7    member    of    the    Armed    Forces.    Proof   that   the
 8    defendant-licensee,  or  his  employee  or  agent,   or   the
 9    representative,  agent,  or  employee of the express company,
10    common  carrier,  or  contract  carrier   that   carries   or
11    transports  alcoholic  liquor  for delivery within this State
12    demanded, was shown and reasonably relied upon  such  written
13    evidence  in  any transaction forbidden by this Section is an
14    affirmative defense in any criminal prosecution  therefor  or
15    to  any  proceedings  for the suspension or revocation of any
16    license  based  thereon.  It  shall  not,  however,   be   an
17    affirmative  defense  if  the  agent or employee accepted the
18    written evidence knowing it to be false or fraudulent.  If  a
19    false  or  fraudulent  Illinois  driver's license or Illinois
20    identification card is presented by a  person  less  than  21
21    years  of  age  to  a  licensee  or  the  licensee's agent or
22    employee for the purpose of ordering, purchasing,  attempting
23    to  purchase,  or otherwise obtaining or attempting to obtain
24    the serving of any alcoholic beverage,  the  law  enforcement
25    officer  or agency investigating the incident shall, upon the
26    conviction of the person who presented the fraudulent license
27    or identification,  make  a  report  of  the  matter  to  the
28    Secretary  of  State  on  a form provided by the Secretary of
29    State.
30        However, no agent or employee of the licensee or employee
31    of an express company, common carrier,  or  contract  carrier
32    that  carries  or  transports  alcoholic  liquor for delivery
33    within this State shall  be  disciplined  or  discharged  for
34    selling  or  furnishing  liquor to a person under 21 years of

 1    age if the agent or employee demanded and was  shown,  before
 2    furnishing liquor to a person under 21 years of age, adequate
 3    written  evidence of age and identity of the person issued by
 4    a  federal,  state,  county  or  municipal   government,   or
 5    subdivision or agency thereof, including but not limited to a
 6    motor  vehicle operator's license, a registration certificate
 7    issued  under  the  Federal  Selective  Service  Act,  or  an
 8    identification card issued to a member of the  Armed  Forces.
 9    This  paragraph,  however,  shall  not  apply if the agent or
10    employee accepted the written evidence knowing it to be false
11    or fraudulent.
12        Any person who sells, gives, or furnishes to  any  person
13    under  the  age  of 21 years any false or fraudulent written,
14    printed, or photostatic evidence of the age and  identity  of
15    such  person  or  who sells, gives or furnishes to any person
16    under the age of 21 years evidence of age and  identification
17    of  any  other  person is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and
18    the person's sentence shall include, but shall not be limited
19    to, a fine of not less than $500.
20        Any person under the age of  21  years  who  presents  or
21    offers  to  any licensee, his agent or employee, any written,
22    printed or photostatic evidence of age and identity  that  is
23    false,  fraudulent,  or  not  actually his or her own for the
24    purpose of ordering, purchasing, attempting  to  purchase  or
25    otherwise  procuring or attempting to procure, the serving of
26    any alcoholic beverage, who falsely states in writing that he
27    or she is at least 21 years of age when  receiving  alcoholic
28    liquor  from  a  representative,  agent,  or  employee  of an
29    express company, common carrier, or contract carrier, or  who
30    has in his or her possession any false or fraudulent written,
31    printed,  or  photostatic  evidence  of  age and identity, is
32    guilty of a Class A misdemeanor  and  the  person's  sentence
33    shall  include, but shall not be limited to, the following: a
34    fine of not less than $500 and at least 25 hours of community
 
                            -498-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    service.   If  possible,  any  community  service  shall   be
 2    performed for an alcohol abuse prevention program.
 3        Any  person  under  the  age  of  21  years  who  has any
 4    alcoholic beverage in his or her possession on any street  or
 5    highway  or  in  any public place or in any place open to the
 6    public is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.  This Section does
 7    not apply to possession by a person under the age of 21 years
 8    making a delivery of an alcoholic beverage  in  pursuance  of
 9    the  order of his or her parent or in pursuance of his or her
10    employment.
11        (a-1)  It is unlawful  for  any  parent  or  guardian  to
12    permit  his  or her residence to be used by an invitee of the
13    parent's child or the guardian's  ward,  if  the  invitee  is
14    under the age of 21, in a manner that constitutes a violation
15    of  this  Section.   A  parent  or guardian is deemed to have
16    permitted his or her residence to be  used  in  violation  of
17    this  Section  if he or she knowingly authorizes, enables, or
18    permits such use to occur by failing  to  control  access  to
19    either  the  residence  or the alcoholic liquor maintained in
20    the residence.  Any person who violates this subsection (a-1)
21    is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and the person's  sentence
22    shall  include,  but  shall  not be limited to, a fine of not
23    less than $500.  Nothing in this subsection  (a-1)  shall  be
24    construed  to  prohibit  the  giving of alcoholic liquor to a
25    person under the age of 21 years  in  the  performance  of  a
26    religious ceremony or service.
27        (b)  Except as otherwise provided in this Section whoever
28    violates  this  Section shall, in addition to other penalties
29    provided for in this Act, be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
30        (c)  Any person shall be guilty of a Class A  misdemeanor
31    where  he or she knowingly permits a gathering at a residence
32    which he or she occupies of two or more persons where any one
33    or more of the persons is under  21  years  of  age  and  the
34    following factors also apply:
 
                            -499-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             (1)  the  person  occupying the residence knows that
 2        any such person under the age of 21 is in  possession  of
 3        or is consuming any alcoholic beverage; and
 4             (2)  the possession or consumption of the alcohol by
 5        the  person  under  21 is not otherwise permitted by this
 6        Act; and
 7             (3)  the person occupying the residence  knows  that
 8        the person under the age of 21 leaves the residence in an
 9        intoxicated condition.
10        For  the  purposes  of  this  subsection  (c)  where  the
11    residence  has  an  owner  and a tenant or lessee, there is a
12    rebuttable presumption that the residence is occupied only by
13    the tenant or lessee.
14        (d)  Any person who rents a hotel or motel room from  the
15    proprietor  or  agent  thereof for the purpose of or with the
16    knowledge that such room shall be used for the consumption of
17    alcoholic liquor by persons under the age of 21  years  shall
18    be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
19        (e)  Except as otherwise provided in this Act, any person
20    who has alcoholic liquor in his or her possession  on  public
21    school  district  property  on  school  days  or at events on
22    public school district property when children are present  is
23    guilty of a petty offense, unless the alcoholic liquor (i) is
24    in  the  original  container with the seal unbroken and is in
25    the possession of a  person  who  is  not  otherwise  legally
26    prohibited from possessing the alcoholic liquor or (ii) is in
27    the  possession  of  a  person in or for the performance of a
28    religious service or ceremony authorized by the school board.

 2    follows:

 3        (305 ILCS 5/4-1.7) (from Ch. 23, par. 4-1.7)
 4        Sec.  4-1.7.  Enforcement  of  Parental   Child   Support
 5    Obligation.)    If  the  parent  or  parents of the child are
 6    failing to meet or are delinquent in their  legal  obligation
 7    to  support  the  child,  the  parent  or other person having
 8    custody of the child or the Illinois Department of Public Aid
 9    may  request  the  law  enforcement  officer  authorized   or
10    directed  by law to so act to file action for the enforcement
11    of such remedies as the law provides for the  fulfillment  of
12    the child support obligation.
13        If  a  parent  has  a  judicial  remedy against the other
14    parent to compel child support, or if, as the  result  of  an
15    action  initiated  by  or in behalf of one parent against the
16    other, a child support order has been entered in  respect  to
17    which  there  is  noncompliance  or delinquency, or where the
18    order so entered may be changed upon petition to the court to
19    provide additional support, the parent or other person having
20    custody of the child or the Illinois Department of Public Aid
21    may request the appropriate law enforcement officer  to  seek
22    enforcement  of  the  remedy,  or  of the support order, or a
23    change therein to provide additional  support.   If  the  law
24    enforcement  officer  is  not  authorized by law to so act in
25    these instances, the parent, or if so authorized by  law  the
26    other  person  having  custody  of the child, or the Illinois
27    Department of Public Aid may initiate an  action  to  enforce
28    these remedies.
29        A parent or other person having custody of the child must
30    comply  with  the  requirements  of  Title  IV of the federal
31    Social Security Act, and  the  regulations  duly  promulgated
32    thereunder,   and  any  rules  promulgated  by  the  Illinois
33    Department  regarding  enforcement  of  the   child   support
 
                            -501-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    obligation.   The  Illinois  Department of Public Aid and the
 2    Department of Human Services may  provide  by  rule  for  the
 3    grant  or  continuation  of aid to the person for a temporary
 4    period if he or she  accepts  counseling  or  other  services
 5    designed   to   increase   his  or  her  motivation  to  seek
 6    enforcement of the child support obligation.
 7        In addition to any other definition of failure or refusal
 8    to comply with the requirements of Title IV  of  the  federal
 9    Social Security Act, or Illinois Department rule, in the case
10    of  failure  to  attend  court  hearings, the parent or other
11    person can show cooperation by attending a court hearing  or,
12    if  a  court  hearing  cannot  be  scheduled  within  14 days
13    following the court hearing that was  missed,  by  signing  a
14    statement  that  the parent or other person is now willing to
15    cooperate in the child support enforcement process  and  will
16    appear  at  any  later  scheduled  court date.  The parent or
17    other person can show cooperation by signing such a statement
18    only once.  If failure to attend the court hearing  or  other
19    failure  to  cooperate  results  in the case being dismissed,
20    such a statement may be signed after 2 months.
21        No denial or termination of medical  assistance  pursuant
22    to this Section shall commence during pregnancy of the parent
23    or  other  person  having custody of the child or for 30 days
24    after the termination of such pregnancy.  The termination  of
25    medical  assistance  may  commence thereafter if the Illinois
26    Department of Public  Aid  determines  that  the  failure  or
27    refusal  to  comply with this Section persists.  Postponement
28    of  denial  or  termination  of  medical  assistance   during
29    pregnancy under this paragraph shall be effective only to the
30    extent it does not conflict with federal law or regulation.
31        Any  evidence  a parent or other person having custody of
32    the child gives in order to comply with the  requirements  of
33    this   Section   shall  not  render  him  or  her  liable  to
34    prosecution under Sections 11-7 or 11-8 of the "Criminal Code
 
                            -502-              LRB9215370EGfg

 2        When so requested, the Illinois Department of Public  Aid
 3    and  the  Department  of  Human  Services  shall provide such
 4    services and assistance as the law  enforcement  officer  may
 5    require   in   connection  with  the  filing  of  any  action
 6    hereunder.
 7        The Illinois Department of Public Aid and the  Department
 8    of  Human  Services, and as an expense of administration, may
 9    also provide applicants for and recipients of aid  with  such
10    services   and   assistance,   including  assumption  of  the
11    reasonable costs of prosecuting any action or proceeding,  as
12    may  be necessary to enable them to enforce the child support
13    liability required hereunder.
14        Nothing  in  this  Section  shall  be  construed   as   a
15    requirement that an applicant or recipient file an action for
16    dissolution of marriage against his or her spouse.

21    rule, shall determine the quantity and  quality  of  and  the
22    rate  of  reimbursement  for the medical assistance for which
23    payment will be authorized, and the medical  services  to  be
24    provided, which may include all or part of the following: (1)
25    inpatient   hospital   services;   (2)   outpatient  hospital
26    services;  (3)  other  laboratory  and  X-ray  services;  (4)
27    skilled  nursing  home  services;  (5)  physicians'  services
28    whether furnished  in  the  office,  the  patient's  home,  a
29    hospital,  a  skilled nursing home, or elsewhere; (6) medical
30    care, or  any  other  type  of  remedial  care  furnished  by

 2    eyeglasses  prescribed by a physician skilled in the diseases
 3    of the eye, or by an optometrist, whichever  the  person  may
 4    select;  (13)  other  diagnostic,  screening, preventive, and
 5    rehabilitative services; (14) transportation and  such  other
 6    expenses  as  may  be  necessary;  (15)  medical treatment of
 7    sexual assault survivors, as defined in  Section  1a  of  the
 8    Sexual   Assault   Survivors  Emergency  Treatment  Act,  for
 9    injuries  sustained  as  a  result  of  the  sexual  assault,
10    including  examinations  and  laboratory  tests  to  discover
11    evidence which may be used in  criminal  proceedings  arising
12    from  the sexual assault; (16) the diagnosis and treatment of
13    sickle cell anemia; and (17) any other medical care, and  any
14    other type of remedial care recognized under the laws of this
15    State,  but  not including abortions, or induced miscarriages
16    or premature births, unless, in the opinion of  a  physician,
17    such  procedures  are  necessary  for the preservation of the
18    life of the  woman  seeking  such  treatment,  or  except  an
19    induced  premature  birth  intended  to produce a live viable
20    child and such procedure is necessary for the health  of  the
21    mother or her unborn child. The Illinois Department, by rule,
22    shall   prohibit   any   physician   from  providing  medical
23    assistance to anyone eligible therefor under this Code  where
24    such  physician  has  been  found  guilty  of  performing  an
25    abortion procedure in a wilful and wanton manner upon a woman
26    who  was not pregnant at the time such abortion procedure was
27    performed. The term "any other type of remedial  care"  shall
28    include nursing care and nursing home service for persons who
29    rely on treatment by spiritual means alone through prayer for
30    healing.
31        Notwithstanding  any  other  provision of this Section, a
32    comprehensive tobacco use  cessation  program  that  includes
33    purchasing prescription drugs or prescription medical devices
34    approved by the Food and Drug administration shall be covered

 2    persons who are otherwise eligible for assistance under  this
 3    Article.
 4        Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  of this Code, the
 5    Illinois Department  may  not  require,  as  a  condition  of
 6    payment   for  any  laboratory  test  authorized  under  this
 7    Article, that a physician's handwritten signature  appear  on
 8    the laboratory test order form.  The Illinois Department may,
 9    however,  impose  other  appropriate  requirements  regarding
10    laboratory test order documentation.
11        The  Illinois  Department of Public Aid shall provide the
12    following services to persons eligible for  assistance  under

19        the  diseases of the eye, or by an optometrist, whichever
20        the person may select.
21        The Illinois Department, by  rule,  may  distinguish  and
22    classify   the  medical  services  to  be  provided  only  in
23    accordance with the classes of persons designated in  Section
24    5-2.
25        The Illinois Department shall authorize the provision of,
26    and  shall  authorize  payment  for,  screening  by  low-dose
27    mammography  for  the  presence  of  occult breast cancer for
28    women 35 years of age or older who are eligible  for  medical
29    assistance  under  this  Article,  as  follows:   a  baseline
30    mammogram  for  women  35  to  39  years of age and an annual
31    mammogram for women 40 years of age or older.  All screenings
32    shall  include  a  physical  breast  exam,   instruction   on

12    treatment  provider  licensed  by  the  Department  of  Human
13    Services or to a licensed hospital which  provides  substance

18    of Human Services.
19        All medical providers  providing  medical  assistance  to
20    pregnant women under this Code shall receive information from
21    the Department on the availability of services under the Drug

 2    Department  of  Human  Services  shall sanction the recipient

 4        The Illinois Department shall establish such  regulations
 5    governing  the  dispensing  of  health  services  under  this
 6    Article  as  it shall deem appropriate.  In formulating these
 7    regulations the Illinois Department shall  consult  with  and
 8    give substantial weight to the recommendations offered by the
 9    Citizens  Assembly/Council  on  Public  Aid.  The  Department
10    should  seek  the  advice  of  formal  professional  advisory
11    committees   appointed   by  the  Director  of  the  Illinois
12    Department for the purpose of  providing  regular  advice  on
13    policy  and administrative matters, information dissemination
14    and  educational  activities  for  medical  and  health  care
15    providers, and consistency  in  procedures  to  the  Illinois
16    Department.
17        The  Illinois  Department  may  develop and contract with
18    Partnerships of medical providers to arrange medical services
19    for  persons  eligible  under  Section  5-2  of  this   Code.
20    Implementation  of  this  Section  may  be  by  demonstration
21    projects  in certain geographic areas.  The Partnership shall
22    be represented by a sponsor organization.  The Department, by
23    rule,  shall   develop   qualifications   for   sponsors   of
24    Partnerships.   Nothing in this Section shall be construed to
25    require  that  the  sponsor   organization   be   a   medical
26    organization.
27        The  sponsor must negotiate formal written contracts with
28    medical  providers  for  physician  services,  inpatient  and
29    outpatient hospital care, home health services, treatment for
30    alcoholism and substance abuse, and other services determined
31    necessary by the Illinois Department by rule for delivery  by
32    Partnerships.   Physician  services must include prenatal and
33    obstetrical care.  The Illinois  Department  shall  reimburse
34    medical   services  delivered  by  Partnership  providers  to
 
                            -507-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    clients in target  areas  according  to  provisions  of  this
 2    Article  and  the  Illinois Health Finance Reform Act, except

 4             (1)  Physicians participating in a  Partnership  and
 5        providing  certain services, which shall be determined by
 6        the Illinois Department, to persons in areas  covered  by
 7        the  Partnership  may receive an additional surcharge for
 8        such services.
 9             (2)  The  Department  may  elect  to  consider   and
10        negotiate   financial   incentives   to   encourage   the
11        development of Partnerships and the efficient delivery of
12        medical care.
13             (3)  Persons   receiving  medical  services  through
14        Partnerships may  receive  medical  and  case  management
15        services  above  the  level  usually  offered through the
16        medical assistance program.
17        Medical providers  shall  be  required  to  meet  certain
18    qualifications  to  participate in Partnerships to ensure the
19    delivery   of   high   quality   medical   services.    These
20    qualifications shall be determined by rule  of  the  Illinois
21    Department   and   may  be  higher  than  qualifications  for
22    participation in the medical assistance program.  Partnership
23    sponsors may prescribe reasonable  additional  qualifications
24    for  participation  by medical providers, only with the prior
25    written approval of the Illinois Department.
26        Nothing in this Section shall limit the  free  choice  of
27    practitioners,  hospitals,  and  other  providers  of medical
28    services by clients. In order to ensure  patient  freedom  of
29    choice,  the Illinois Department shall immediately promulgate
30    all rules and  take  all  other  necessary  actions  so  that
31    provided   services  may  be  accessed  from  therapeutically
32    certified optometrists to the full  extent  of  the  Illinois
33    Optometric   Practice  Act  of  1987  without  discriminating
34    between service providers.

 1        The Department shall apply for a waiver from  the  United
 2    States  Health Care Financing Administration to allow for the
 3    implementation of Partnerships under this Section.
 4        The  Illinois  Department  shall  require   health   care
 5    providers  to maintain records that document the medical care
 6    and services provided to  recipients  of  Medical  Assistance
 7    under  this  Article.   The Illinois Department shall require
 8    health care providers to make available, when  authorized  by
 9    the  patient,  in  writing,  the  medical records in a timely
10    fashion to other health care providers who  are  treating  or
11    serving  persons  eligible  for Medical Assistance under this
12    Article.   All  dispensers  of  medical  services  shall   be
13    required  to  maintain  and  retain business and professional
14    records sufficient  to  fully  and  accurately  document  the
15    nature,  scope,  details  and  receipt  of  the  health  care
16    provided  to  persons  eligible  for medical assistance under
17    this Code, in accordance with regulations promulgated by  the
18    Illinois Department.  The rules and regulations shall require
19    that  proof  of  the receipt of prescription drugs, dentures,
20    prosthetic devices and eyeglasses by eligible  persons  under
21    this Section accompany each claim for reimbursement submitted
22    by the dispenser of such medical services. No such claims for
23    reimbursement  shall  be approved for payment by the Illinois
24    Department without such proof of receipt, unless the Illinois
25    Department shall have put into effect and shall be  operating
26    a  system  of post-payment audit and review which shall, on a
27    sampling basis, be deemed adequate by the Illinois Department
28    to assure that such drugs, dentures, prosthetic  devices  and
29    eyeglasses for which payment is being made are actually being
30    received  by  eligible  recipients.  Within 90 days after the
31    effective date of this amendatory Act of 1984,  the  Illinois
32    Department  shall  establish  a  current  list of acquisition
33    costs  for  all  prosthetic  devices  and  any  other   items
34    recognized  as  medical  equipment  and supplies reimbursable
 
                            -509-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    under this Article and shall update such list on a  quarterly
 2    basis,  except that the acquisition costs of all prescription
 3    drugs shall be updated no less frequently than every 30  days
 4    as required by Section 5-5.12.
 5        The  rules  and  regulations  of  the Illinois Department
 6    shall require that a written statement including the required
 7    opinion  of  a  physician  shall  accompany  any  claim   for
 8    reimbursement  for  abortions,  or  induced  miscarriages  or
 9    premature   births.    This  statement  shall  indicate  what
10    procedures were used in providing such medical services.
11        The Illinois Department shall require that all dispensers
12    of medical services, other than an individual practitioner or
13    group  of  practitioners,  desiring  to  participate  in  the
14    Medical Assistance program established under this Article  to
15    disclose all financial, beneficial, ownership, equity, surety
16    or  other  interests  in  any  and  all  firms, corporations,
17    partnerships,  associations,  business   enterprises,   joint
18    ventures,  agencies,  institutions  or  other  legal entities
19    providing any form of health  care  services  in  this  State
20    under this Article.
21        The  Illinois  Department may require that all dispensers
22    of medical services desiring to participate  in  the  medical
23    assistance  program  established under this Article disclose,
24    under such terms and conditions as  the  Illinois  Department
25    may  by  rule  establish,  all  inquiries  from  clients  and
26    attorneys  regarding  medical  bills  paid  by  the  Illinois
27    Department,   which   inquiries   could   indicate  potential
28    existence of claims or liens for the Illinois Department.
29        The  Illinois  Department   shall   establish   policies,
30    procedures,   standards   and   criteria   by  rule  for  the
31    acquisition,  repair  and   replacement   of   orthotic   and
32    prosthetic devices and durable medical equipment.  Such rules
33    shall provide, but not be limited to, the following services:

 2    lease,   purchase   or   lease-purchase  of  durable  medical
 3    equipment   in   a   cost-effective   manner,   taking   into
 4    consideration the recipient's medical prognosis,  the  extent
 5    of  the recipient's needs, and the requirements and costs for
 6    maintaining  such  equipment.   Such  rules  shall  enable  a
 7    recipient to  temporarily  acquire  and  use  alternative  or
 8    substitute   devices   or   equipment   pending   repairs  or
 9    replacements of any device or equipment previously authorized
10    for such recipient by the Department. Rules under clause  (2)
11    above  shall  not  provide  for purchase or lease-purchase of
12    durable medical equipment or supplies used for the purpose of
13    oxygen delivery and respiratory care.
14        The Department shall execute,  relative  to  the  nursing
15    home  prescreening  project,  written inter-agency agreements
16    with the Department of Human Services and the  Department  on
17    Aging,  to  effect  the  following: (i) intake procedures and
18    common  eligibility  criteria  for  those  persons  who   are
19    receiving    non-institutional   services;   and   (ii)   the

21    in  areas of the State where they are not currently available
22    or are undeveloped.

24    cooperation  with other State Departments and agencies and in
25    compliance with  applicable  federal  laws  and  regulations,

 7    responsible relatives to provide support, and shall implement
 8    the   standard  by  rules  governing  its  application.   The
 9    standard and the rules shall take into account the buying and
10    consumption patterns of  self-supporting  persons  of  modest
11    income, present or future contingencies having direct bearing
12    on  maintenance  of  the  relative's  self-support status and

24    Article IV of this Act and other persons who are given access
25    to  the  child and spouse support services of this Article as

27    Department shall base  the  guidelines  upon  the  applicable
28    provisions  of  Sections  504,  505 and 505.2 of the Illinois

18    to  a  beneficiary  under  this Code because of an injury for
19    which another person is liable, or for  which  a  carrier  is
20    liable  in  accordance  with  the provisions of any policy of
21    insurance issued pursuant to the Illinois Insurance Code, the
22    Illinois Department shall have a right to recover  from  such
23    person  or  carrier  the  reasonable  value  of  benefits  so

32        for benefits provided under this Code, or

 2        collection would result in undue hardship upon the person
 3        who suffered the injury or, in a wrongful  death  action,
 4        upon the heirs of the deceased.
 5        (3)  No action taken on behalf of the Department pursuant
 6    to this Section or any judgment rendered in such action shall
 7    be  a  bar to any action upon the claim or cause of action of
 8    the  beneficiary,   his   guardian,   conservator,   personal
 9    representative,  estate,  dependents or survivors against the
10    third person who may be  liable  for  the  injury,  or  shall
11    operate  to  deny  to  the  beneficiary the recovery for that
12    portion of any damages not covered hereunder.
13        (c) (1)  When an action  is  brought  by  the  Department
14    pursuant  to subsection (b), it shall be commenced within the

16    Procedure.
17        However, the Department may not commence the action prior
18    to   5  months  before  the  end  of  the  applicable  period
19    prescribed by Article XIII of the Code  of  Civil  Procedure.
20    Thirty  days  prior  to  commencing an action, the Department
21    shall notify the beneficiary of the  Department's  intent  to
22    commence such an action.
23        (2)  The  death  of  the  beneficiary  does not abate any
24    right of action established by subsection (b).
25        (3)  When an  action  or  claim  is  brought  by  persons
26    entitled  to bring such actions or assert such claims against
27    a third person who may be liable for causing the death  of  a
28    beneficiary,  any  settlement,  judgment or award obtained is
29    subject to the Department's claim for  reimbursement  of  the
30    benefits provided to the beneficiary under this Code.
31        (4)  When   the   action  or  claim  is  brought  by  the
32    beneficiary alone  and  the  beneficiary  incurs  a  personal
33    liability to pay attorney's fees and costs of litigation, the
34    Department's claim for reimbursement of the benefits provided

 2    on behalf of the beneficiary under this Code less a pro  rata
 3    share  which  represents the Department's reasonable share of

 5    the  cost of litigation expenses determined by multiplying by
 6    the ratio of the full amount of the expenditures of the  full
 7    amount of the judgment, award or settlement.
 8        (d) (1)  If  either  the  beneficiary  or  the Department
 9    brings an  action  or  claim  against  such  third  party  or
10    carrier,  the  beneficiary  or the Department shall within 30
11    days of filing the action give to the other written notice by
12    personal service or registered mail of the  action  or  claim
13    and  of the name of the court in which the action or claim is
14    brought.  Proof of such notice shall be filed in such  action
15    or  claim.   If  an  action or claim is brought by either the
16    Department or the beneficiary, the other  may,  at  any  time
17    before  trial  on the facts, become a party to such action or
18    claim or shall consolidate his action or claim with the other
19    if brought independently.
20        (2)  If an action or claim is brought by  the  Department
21    pursuant   to   subsection  (b)(1),  written  notice  to  the
22    beneficiary, guardian,  personal  representative,  estate  or
23    survivor  given  pursuant to this Section shall advise him of
24    his right to intervene in the proceeding, his right to obtain
25    a private attorney of his choice and the  Department's  right
26    to recover the reasonable value of the benefits provided.
27        (e)  In the event of judgment or award in a suit or claim
28    against such third person or carrier:
29        (1)  If   the  action  or  claim  is  prosecuted  by  the
30    beneficiary alone, the court shall first order paid from  any
31    judgment or award the reasonable litigation expenses incurred
32    in  preparation  and  prosecution  of  such  action or claim,
33    together with reasonable attorney's fees,  when  an  attorney
34    has  been  retained.   After  payment  of  such  expenses and
 
                            -526-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    attorney's fees the court shall, on the  application  of  the
 2    Department,  allow as a first lien against the amount of such
 3    judgment or award the amount of the Department's expenditures
 4    for the benefit  of  the  beneficiary  under  this  Code,  as
 5    provided in subsection (c)(4).
 6        (2)  If  the  action  or  claim is prosecuted both by the
 7    beneficiary and the Department, the court shall  first  order
 8    paid  from  any  judgment  or award the reasonable litigation
 9    expenses incurred in  preparation  and  prosecution  of  such
10    action or claim, together with reasonable attorney's fees for
11    plaintiffs  attorneys  based  solely on the services rendered
12    for the benefit of the beneficiary.  After  payment  of  such
13    expenses  and  attorney's  fees, the court shall apply out of
14    the balance of such judgment or award an amount sufficient to
15    reimburse the Department the full amount of benefits paid  on
16    behalf of the beneficiary under this Code.
17        (f)  The  court  shall,  upon  further application at any
18    time before the judgment or award is satisfied,  allow  as  a
19    further lien the amount of any expenditures of the Department
20    in  payment  of  additional  benefits arising out of the same
21    cause  of  action  or  claim  provided  on  behalf   of   the
22    beneficiary under this Code, when such benefits were provided
23    or became payable subsequent to the original order.
24        (g)  No  judgment,  award, or settlement in any action or
25    claim by a beneficiary to recover damages for injuries,  when
26    the  Department  has  an interest, shall be satisfied without
27    first  giving  the  Department  notice   and   a   reasonable
28    opportunity to perfect and satisfy its his lien.
29        (h)  When  the  Department  has  perfected  a lien upon a
30    judgment or award in favor of a beneficiary against any third
31    party for an injury for which the  beneficiary  has  received
32    benefits under this Code, the Department shall be entitled to
33    a  writ  of  execution as lien claimant to enforce payment of
34    said lien against such third party with  interest  and  other
 
                            -527-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    accruing  costs  as  in the case of other executions.  In the
 2    event the amount of such judgment or award so  recovered  has
 3    been  paid  to  the  beneficiary,  the  Department  shall  be
 4    entitled  to  a writ of execution against such beneficiary to
 5    the extent of the Department's lien, with interest and  other
 6    accruing costs as in the case of other executions.
 7        (i)  Except   as  otherwise  provided  in  this  Section,
 8    notwithstanding any other provision of law, the entire amount
 9    of any settlement of  the  injured  beneficiary's  action  or
10    claim,  with  or without suit, is subject to the Department's
11    claim for reimbursement of the benefits provided and any lien
12    filed pursuant thereto to the same extent and subject to  the
13    same limitations as in Section 11-22 of this Code.

 1    which served as the basis for that  vendor's  termination  is

 8    the  medical  assistance program. A person who owns, directly
 9    or indirectly, 5% or more of the shares  of  stock  or  other
10    evidences  of  ownership in a terminated corporate vendor may
11    not transfer his or her ownership interest in that vendor  to
12    his   or   her   spouse,   child,  brother,  sister,  parent,

14    or relative by marriage.
15        Upon termination of a sole proprietorship or partnership,
16    the  owner  or  partners during the time of any conduct which
17    served as the basis for that vendor's termination are  barred
18    from  participation  in  the  medical assistance program. The
19    owner of a terminated vendor that is a  sole  proprietorship,
20    and  a  partner in a terminated vendor that is a partnership,

22    in that vendor to his or her spouse, child, brother,  sister,
23    parent,  grandparent, grandchild, uncle, aunt, niece, nephew,
24    cousin, or relative by marriage.
25        Rules adopted by the  Illinois  Department  to  implement
26    these  provisions  shall specifically include a definition of
27    the term "management responsibility" as used in this Section.
28    Such definition shall include, but not be limited to, typical
29    job  titles,  and  duties  and  descriptions  which  will  be
30    considered as  within  the  definition  of  individuals  with
31    management responsibility for a provider.
32        (D)  If  a  vendor  has  been  suspended from the medical
33    assistance program under Article V of the Code, the  Director
34    may  require  that such vendor correct any deficiencies which
 
                            -533-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    served as the basis for the suspension.  The  Director  shall
 2    specify  in  the  suspension order a specific period of time,
 3    which shall not exceed one year from the date of  the  order,
 4    during  which  a  suspended  vendor  shall not be eligible to
 5    participate. At the conclusion of the  period  of  suspension
 6    the  Director  shall  reinstate  such vendor, unless he finds
 7    that such vendor has not corrected  deficiencies  upon  which
 8    the suspension was based.
 9        If   a  vendor  has  been  terminated  from  the  medical
10    assistance program under Article  V,  such  vendor  shall  be
11    barred  from  participation for at least one year. At the end
12    of one year a vendor who has been terminated  may  apply  for
13    reinstatement  to  the program. Upon proper application to be
14    reinstated such vendor may be deemed eligible by the Director
15    providing  that  such  vendor  meets  the  requirements   for
16    eligibility  under  this  Code.  If such vendor is deemed not
17    eligible for reinstatement, he shall  be  barred  from  again
18    applying  for  reinstatement  for  one year from the date his
19    application for reinstatement is denied.
20        A vendor whose  termination  from  participation  in  the
21    Illinois medical assistance program under Article V was based
22    solely  on  an action by a governmental entity other than the
23    Illinois  Department  may,   upon   reinstatement   by   that
24    governmental  entity  or  upon  reversal  of the termination,
25    apply for rescission of the termination from participation in
26    the  Illinois  medical  assistance  program.    Upon   proper
27    application for rescission, the vendor may be deemed eligible
28    by  the  Director  if  the  vendor meets the requirements for
29    eligibility under this Code.
30        If a vendor has been terminated  and  reinstated  to  the
31    medical  assistance program under Article V and the vendor is
32    terminated a second  or  subsequent  time  from  the  medical
33    assistance   program,   the   vendor  shall  be  barred  from
34    participation for at least 2 years.  At the end of 2 years, a
 
                            -534-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    vendor who has been terminated may apply for reinstatement to
 2    the program.  Upon application to be reinstated,  the  vendor
 3    may  be  deemed eligible if the vendor meets the requirements
 4    for eligibility under this Code.  If the vendor is deemed not
 5    eligible for reinstatement, the vendor shall be  barred  from
 6    again  applying  for  reinstatement for 2 years from the date
 7    the vendor's application for reinstatement is denied.
 8        (E)  The Illinois Department may recover money improperly
 9    or erroneously  paid,  or  overpayments,  either  by  setoff,
10    crediting  against  future  billings  or  by requiring direct
11    repayment to the Illinois Department.
12        (F)  The Illinois Department may withhold payments to any
13    vendor during the  pendency  of  any  proceeding  under  this
14    Section  except  that  if a final administrative decision has
15    not been issued within 120 days of  the  initiation  of  such
16    proceedings,  unless  delay  has  been  caused by the vendor,
17    payments can no longer be withheld, provided,  however,  that
18    the  120  day  limit  may  be  extended  if said extension is
19    mutually agreed to by the Illinois Department and the vendor.
20    The Illinois Department shall state  by  rule  with  as  much
21    specificity   as   practicable  the  conditions  under  which
22    payments will not be withheld  during  the  pendency  of  any
23    proceeding  under  this  Section.  Payments may be denied for
24    bills submitted  with  service  dates  occurring  during  the
25    pendency  of  a  proceeding  where  the  final administrative
26    decision is to terminate eligibility to  participate  in  the
27    medical  assistance  program.   The Illinois Department shall
28    state by rule with as much  specificity  as  practicable  the
29    conditions  under  which payments will not be denied for such
30    bills.
31        (F-5)  The Illinois Department may  temporarily  withhold
32    payments to a vendor if any of the following individuals have
33    been  indicted or otherwise charged under a law of the United
34    States or this or any other state with a felony offense  that
 
                            -535-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    is based on alleged fraud or willful misrepresentation on the
 2    part  of the individual related to (i) the medical assistance
 3    program  under  Article  V  of  this  Code,  (ii)  a  medical
 4    assistance program provided in another state which is of  the
 5    kind  provided  under  Article  V  of  this  Code,  (iii) the
 6    Medicare program under Title XVIII  of  the  Social  Security
 7    Act, or (iv) the provision of health care services:
 8             (1)  If  the  vendor is a corporation: an officer of
 9        the  corporation  or  an  individual  who  owns,   either
10        directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the shares of stock
11        or other evidence of ownership of the corporation.
12             (2)  If  the  vendor  is  a sole proprietorship: the
13        owner of the sole proprietorship.
14             (3)  If the vendor is a partnership:  a  partner  in
15        the partnership.
16             (4)  If  the  vendor  is  any  other business entity
17        authorized by law to transact business in this State:  an
18        officer of the entity or an individual who  owns,  either
19        directly  or  indirectly,  5% or more of the evidences of

21        If the Illinois Department withholds payments to a vendor
22    under this subsection, the Department shall not release those
23    payments to the vendor while any criminal proceeding  related
24    to  the indictment or charge is pending unless the Department
25    determines that there is good cause to release  the  payments
26    before  completion  of  the proceeding.  If the indictment or
27    charge results in the individual's conviction,  the  Illinois
28    Department shall retain all withheld payments, which shall be
29    considered forfeited to the Department.  If the indictment or
30    charge  does  not  result in the individual's conviction, the
31    Illinois Department shall release to the vendor all  withheld
32    payments.
33        (G)  The  provisions of the Administrative Review Law, as
34    now or hereafter amended,  and  the  rules  adopted  pursuant

 1    thereto,  shall  apply  to and govern all proceedings for the
 2    judicial review of  final  administrative  decisions  of  the
 3    Illinois   Department   under   this   Section.    The   term
 4    "administrative  decision"  is defined as in Section 3-101 of
 5    the Code of Civil Procedure.
 6        (H)  Nothing contained in this  Code  shall  in  any  way
 7    limit or otherwise impair the authority or power of any State
 8    agency responsible for licensing of vendors.
 9        (I)  Based on a finding of noncompliance on the part of a
10    nursing  home  with  any  requirement for certification under
11    Title XVIII or XIX of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. Sec.
12    1395 et seq. or 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1396 et  seq.),  the  Illinois
13    Department  may  impose one or more of the following remedies
14    after notice to the facility:
15             (1)  Termination of the provider agreement.
16             (2)  Temporary management.
17             (3)  Denial of payment for new admissions.
18             (4)  Civil money penalties.

22             (7)  Denial of all payments  when  the  Health  Care
23        Finance Administration has imposed this sanction.
24        The  Illinois Department shall by rule establish criteria
25    governing continued payments to a nursing facility subsequent
26    to termination of the facility's provider  agreement  if,  in
27    the sole discretion of the Illinois Department, circumstances
28    affecting  the  health, safety, and welfare of the facility's
29    residents require those  continued  payments.   The  Illinois
30    Department  may  condition  those  continued  payments on the
31    appointment of temporary management, sale of the facility  to
32    new  owners  or  operators,  or  other  arrangements that the
33    Illinois Department determines best serve the  needs  of  the
34    facility's residents.

 1        Except  in  the  case of a facility that has a right to a
 2    hearing on the finding of noncompliance before an  agency  of
 3    the  federal  government,  a  facility  may request a hearing
 4    before a State agency on any finding of noncompliance  within
 5    60  days  after  the notice of the intent to impose a remedy.
 6    Except in the case of civil money penalties, a request for  a
 7    hearing  shall  not  delay  imposition  of  the penalty.  The
 8    choice of remedies is not appealable at a hearing.  The level
 9    of noncompliance may be challenged only  in  the  case  of  a
10    civil money penalty. The Illinois Department shall provide by
11    rule  for  the State agency that will conduct the evidentiary
12    hearings.
13        The Illinois Department may collect  interest  on  unpaid
14    civil money penalties.
15        The  Illinois Department may adopt all rules necessary to
16    implement this subsection (I).

 1        (a)  In general.  Any individual 65 years or older or any
 2    individual who will become 65 years old during  the  calendar
 3    year  in  which a claim is filed, and any surviving spouse of
 4    such a claimant, who at the time of  death  received  or  was
 5    entitled  to  receive a grant pursuant to this Section, which
 6    surviving spouse will become 65 years of age  within  the  24
 7    months  immediately  following the death of such claimant and
 8    which surviving spouse but for his or her  age  is  otherwise
 9    qualified  to  receive  a grant pursuant to this Section, and
10    any disabled person whose annual  household  income  is  less
11    than $14,000 for grant years before the 1998 grant year, less
12    than $16,000 for the 1998 and 1999 grant years, and less than
13    (i)  $21,218  for  a  household  containing  one person, (ii)
14    $28,480 for  a  household  containing  2  persons,  or  (iii)
15    $35,740  for a household containing 3 or more persons for the

17    for  payment  of  property  taxes  accrued  or  has paid rent
18    constituting property taxes accrued and is domiciled in  this
19    State  at  the  time  he  or  she  files  his or her claim is
20    entitled to claim a grant under this Act.   With  respect  to
21    claims  filed  by  individuals  who  will become 65 years old
22    during the calendar year in  which  a  claim  is  filed,  the
23    amount of any grant to which that household is entitled shall
24    be  an  amount  equal  to  1/12  of  the  amount to which the
25    claimant would otherwise be  entitled  as  provided  in  this
26    Section,  multiplied  by  the  number  of months in which the
27    claimant was 65 in the calendar year in which  the  claim  is
28    filed.
29        (b)  Limitation.    Except   as   otherwise  provided  in
30    subsections (a) and (f) of this Section, the  maximum  amount
31    of  grant which a claimant is entitled to claim is the amount
32    by which the  property  taxes  accrued  which  were  paid  or
33    payable   during   the   last  preceding  tax  year  or  rent
34    constituting  property  taxes  accrued  upon  the  claimant's
 
                            -543-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    residence for the last preceding taxable year exceeds 3  1/2%
 2    of  the  claimant's  household income for that year but in no
 3    event is the grant to exceed (i) $700 less 4.5% of  household
 4    income  for  that  year  for those with a household income of
 5    $14,000 or less or (ii) $70 if household income for that year
 6    is more than $14,000.
 7        (c)  Public aid recipients.  If household income  in  one
 8    or  more  months  during  a  year includes cash assistance in
 9    excess of $55 per month from the Department of Public Aid  or
10    the  Department of Human Services (acting as successor to the
11    Department of  Public  Aid  under  the  Department  of  Human
12    Services  Act) which was determined under regulations of that
13    Department on a measure of need that  included  an  allowance
14    for  actual  rent  or property taxes paid by the recipient of
15    that assistance, the amount of grant to which that  household
16    is  entitled, except as otherwise provided in subsection (a),
17    shall be the product of (1) the maximum  amount  computed  as
18    specified in subsection (b) of this Section and (2) the ratio
19    of  the  number  of  months in which household income did not
20    include such cash assistance over $55 to the  number  twelve.
21    If household income did not include such cash assistance over
22    $55  for  any months during the year, the amount of the grant
23    to which the household  is  entitled  shall  be  the  maximum
24    amount  computed  as  specified  in  subsection  (b)  of this
25    Section.   For  purposes  of  this   paragraph   (c),   "cash
26    assistance"  does  not  include any amount received under the
27    federal Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program.
28        (d)  Joint ownership.  If title to the residence is  held
29    jointly  by the claimant with a person who is not a member of
30    his or her household, the amount of  property  taxes  accrued
31    used  in  computing the amount of grant to which he or she is
32    entitled shall be  the  same  percentage  of  property  taxes
33    accrued  as  is  the  percentage  of  ownership  held  by the
34    claimant in the residence.
 
                            -544-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        (e)  More than one residence.  If a claimant has occupied
 2    more than one residence in the taxable year, he  or  she  may
 3    claim  only  one  residence  for any part of a month.  In the
 4    case of property taxes accrued, he or she shall  prorate  pro
 5    rate  1/12  of the total property taxes accrued on his or her
 6    residence to each month that he or  she  owned  and  occupied
 7    that  residence;  and,  in  the  case  of  rent  constituting
 8    property  taxes  accrued, shall prorate pro rate each month's
 9    rent payments to the residence actually occupied during  that
10    month.
11        (f)  There   is   hereby   established   a   program   of
12    pharmaceutical  assistance  to  the  aged  and disabled which
13    shall be administered by the Department  in  accordance  with
14    this Act, to consist of payments to authorized pharmacies, on
15    behalf  of  beneficiaries  of the program, for the reasonable
16    costs of covered prescription drugs.   Each  beneficiary  who
17    pays  $5  for  an identification card shall pay no additional
18    prescription costs.  Each beneficiary who  pays  $25  for  an
19    identification  card  shall  pay  $3  per  prescription.   In
20    addition,  after  a  beneficiary  receives $2,000 in benefits
21    during a State fiscal year, that beneficiary  shall  also  be
22    charged  20%  of  the  cost  of  each  prescription for which
23    payments are made by the program during the remainder of  the
24    fiscal  year.   To  become a beneficiary under this program a
25    person must be: (1) be (i) 65 years of age or older, or  (ii)
26    the  surviving  spouse of such a claimant, who at the time of
27    death received or was entitled to receive  benefits  pursuant
28    to  this  subsection,  which  surviving spouse will become 65
29    years of age within the 24 months immediately  following  the
30    death of such claimant and which surviving spouse but for his
31    or  her  age  is  otherwise  qualified  to  receive  benefits
32    pursuant to this subsection, or (iii) disabled, and (2) be is
33    domiciled  in  this  State at the time he or she files his or
34    her claim, and (3) have has a  maximum  household  income  of
 
                            -545-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    less than $14,000 for grant years before the 1998 grant year,
 2    less than $16,000 for the 1998 and 1999 grant years, and less
 3    than  (i) $21,218 for a household containing one person, (ii)
 4    $28,480 for  a  household  containing  2  persons,  or  (iii)
 5    $35,740  for  a  household  containing 3 more persons for the
 6    2000 grant year and thereafter.  In addition,  each  eligible
 7    person  must  (1)  obtain  an  identification  card  from the
 8    Department, (2) at the time the  card  is  obtained,  sign  a
 9    statement  assigning  to the State of Illinois benefits which
10    may be otherwise claimed under any private  insurance  plans,
11    and  (3)  present  the  identification card to the dispensing
12    pharmacist.
13        Whenever a generic equivalent for a covered  prescription
14    drug  is  available,  the Department shall reimburse only for
15    the reasonable costs of  the  generic  equivalent,  less  the
16    co-pay  established  in  this Section, unless (i) the covered
17    prescription drug contains one or more ingredients defined as
18    a narrow therapeutic index drug at 21 CFR  320.33,  (ii)  the
19    prescriber  indicates  on the face of the prescription "brand
20    medically necessary", and (iii) the prescriber specifies that
21    a substitution  is  not  permitted.   When  issuing  an  oral
22    prescription for covered prescription medication described in
23    item  (i)  of  this paragraph, the prescriber shall stipulate
24    "brand medically necessary" and that a  substitution  is  not
25    permitted.    If   the  covered  prescription  drug  and  its
26    authorizing prescription do  not  meet  the  criteria  listed
27    above,   the   beneficiary   may   purchase  the  non-generic
28    equivalent of the covered prescription  drug  by  paying  the
29    difference  between the generic cost and the non-generic cost
30    plus the beneficiary co-pay.
31        Any  person   otherwise   eligible   for   pharmaceutical
32    assistance  under this Act whose covered drugs are covered by
33    any public program for assistance in purchasing  any  covered
34    prescription  drugs  shall be ineligible for assistance under
 
                            -546-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    this Act to the extent such costs are covered by  such  other
 2    plan.
 3        The   fee  to  be  charged  by  the  Department  for  the
 4    identification card shall be equal to $5  per  coverage  year
 5    for persons below the official poverty line as defined by the
 6    United States Department of Health and Human Services and $25
 7    per coverage year for all other persons.
 8        In  the event that 2 or more persons are eligible for any
 9    benefit  under  this  Act,  and  are  members  of  the   same
10    household,   (1)  each  such  person  shall  be  entitled  to
11    participate  in  the   pharmaceutical   assistance   program,
12    provided  that he or she meets all other requirements imposed
13    by this  subsection  and  (2)  each  participating  household
14    member  contributes  the  fee required for that person by the
15    preceding  paragraph  for  the  purpose   of   obtaining   an
16    identification card.

20        Sec. 6.  Administration.
21        (a)  In general.  Upon receipt of a timely  filed  claim,
22    the  Department  shall  determine  whether  the claimant is a
23    person entitled to a grant under this Act and the  amount  of
24    grant  to which he is entitled under this Act. The Department
25    may require the claimant to furnish reasonable proof  of  the
26    statements of domicile, household income, rent paid, property
27    taxes  accrued  and  other  matters  on  which entitlement is
28    based, and  may  withhold  payment  of  a  grant  until  such
29    additional proof is furnished.
30        (b)  Rental  determination.  If the Department finds that
31    the gross rent used in the computation by a claimant of  rent
32    constituting  property  taxes accrued exceeds the fair rental
33    value for the right to occupy that residence, the  Department
 
                            -547-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    may  determine  the  fair rental value for that residence and
 2    recompute   rent   constituting   property   taxes    accrued
 3    accordingly.
 4        (c)  Fraudulent claims.  The Department shall deny claims
 5    which  have  been fraudulently prepared or when it finds that
 6    the claimant has acquired title to his residence or has  paid
 7    rent for his residence primarily for the purpose of receiving
 8    a grant under this Act.
 9        (d)  Pharmaceutical  Assistance.    The  Department shall
10    allow all pharmacies licensed under the Pharmacy Practice Act
11    of 1987 to participate as authorized pharmacies  unless  they
12    have  been removed from that status for cause pursuant to the
13    terms of this Section.   The Director of the  Department  may
14    enter   into  a  written  contract  with  any  State  agency,
15    instrumentality  or  political  subdivision,  or   a   fiscal
16    intermediary for the purpose of making payments to authorized
17    pharmacies  for  covered  prescription drugs and coordinating
18    the program of pharmaceutical assistance established by  this
19    Act  with  other  programs  that  provide payment for covered
20    prescription   drugs.    Such   agreement   shall   establish
21    procedures for properly contracting  for  pharmacy  services,
22    validating  reimbursement  claims,  validating  compliance of
23    dispensing pharmacists with the contracts  for  participation
24    required  under this Section, validating the reasonable costs
25    of covered prescription drugs, and  otherwise  providing  for
26    the effective administration of this Act.
27        The  Department shall promulgate rules and regulations to
28    implement  and  administer  the  program  of   pharmaceutical
29    assistance  required  by  this  Act,  which shall include the
30    following:
31             (1)  Execution  of  contracts  with  pharmacies   to
32        dispense covered prescription drugs. Such contracts shall
33        stipulate  terms and conditions for authorized pharmacies
34        participation and the rights of the  State  to  terminate
 
                            -548-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        such  participation  for  breach  of such contract or for
 2        violation of this Act or related rules and regulations of
 3        the Department;
 4             (2)  Establishment of maximum limits on the size  of
 5        prescriptions, new or refilled, which shall be in amounts
 6        sufficient  for 34 days, except as otherwise specified by
 7        rule for medical or utilization control reasons;
 8             (3)  Establishment of liens upon any and all  causes
 9        of  action  which  accrue to a beneficiary as a result of
10        injuries  for  which  covered  prescription   drugs   are
11        directly   or  indirectly  required  and  for  which  the
12        Director made payment or became  liable  for  under  this
13        Act;
14             (4)  Charge  or  collection  of  payments from third
15        parties or private plans of  assistance,  or  from  other
16        programs  of  public  assistance  for  any  claim that is
17        properly chargeable  under  the  assignment  of  benefits
18        executed by beneficiaries as a requirement of eligibility
19        for  the  pharmaceutical  assistance  identification card
20        under this Act;
21             (5)  Inspection of appropriate records and audit  of
22        participating  authorized  pharmacies  to ensure contract
23        compliance, and to determine any fraudulent  transactions
24        or practices under this Act;
25             (6)  Annual determination of the reasonable costs of
26        covered  prescription  drugs  for which payments are made
27        under this Act, as provided in Section 3.16;
28             (7)  Payment  to  pharmacies  under  this   Act   in
29        accordance with the State Prompt Payment Act.
30        The  Department shall annually report to the Governor and
31    the General Assembly  by  March  1st  of  each  year  on  the
32    administration  of  pharmaceutical assistance under this Act.
33    By the effective  date  of  this  Act  the  Department  shall
34    determine  the reasonable costs of covered prescription drugs

 2    is amended by changing Sections 11 and 13 as follows:

 3        (325 ILCS 20/11) (from Ch. 23, par. 4161)
 4        Sec. 11.  Individualized Family Service Plans.
 5        (a)  Each eligible infant or toddler and that infant's or
 6    toddler's family shall receive:
 7             (1)  timely,     comprehensive,    multidisciplinary
 8        assessment of the unique needs of  each  eligible  infant
 9        and   toddler,   and   assessment  of  the  concerns  and
10        priorities of the families to appropriately  assist  them
11        in  meeting  their  needs  and  identify services to meet
12        those needs; and
13             (2)  a written Individualized  Family  Service  Plan
14        developed  by a multidisciplinary team which includes the
15        parent or guardian.  The  individualized  family  service
16        plan  shall  be  based  on  the  multidisciplinary team's
17        assessment of the resources, priorities, and concerns  of
18        the  family  and  its  identification of the supports and
19        services necessary to enhance the  family's  capacity  to
20        meet  the  developmental  needs of the infant or toddler,
21        and  shall  include   the  identification   of   services
22        appropriate to meet those needs, including the frequency,

24        as  part of the initial development of the individualized
25        family services plan, and any  periodic  reviews  of  the
26        plan,  the  multidisciplinary team shall consult the lead
27        agency's therapy guidelines and its  designated  experts,
28        if  any,  to  help determine appropriate services and the

31        justified  by  the  multidisciplinary  assessment  of the
32        unique strengths and needs of the infant or  toddler  and

12    Plan  meeting  must  be held within 45 days after the initial
13    contact with the early  intervention  services  system.  With
14    parental  consent,  early  intervention services may commence

17        (d)  Parents  must be informed that, at their discretion,
18    early  intervention  services  shall  be  provided  to   each
19    eligible infant and toddler in the natural environment, which
20    may  include  the  home or other community settings.  Parents
21    shall make the final decision  to  accept  or  decline  early
22    intervention  services.  A  decision to decline such services
23    shall not be a  basis  for  administrative  determination  of

25    parents. Parameters of the Plan shall be set forth in rules.
26        (e)  The regional intake offices shall  explain  to  each
27    family, orally and in writing, all of the following:

33        other third party payor.
34             (2)  That services will not be delayed  due  to  any

 7             (4)  That    responsibility   for   co-payments   or
 8        co-insurance under a family's private insurance  plan  or

16        subsection  (f)  of  Section  13  of  this Act, making it
17        unable to pay the fees, the lead agency may,  upon  proof

 2    may  be  made  based on a pre-determination telephone inquiry
 3    supported by written documentation  of  the  denial  supplied
 4    thereafter by the insurance carrier.
 5        (d)  Nothing in this Act shall be construed to permit the
 6    State  to  reduce medical or other assistance available or to
 7    alter eligibility under Title V and Title XIX of  the  Social
 8    Security  Act  relating  to the Maternal Child Health Program
 9    and Medicaid for eligible infants and toddlers in this State.
10        (e)  The lead  agency  shall  create  a  central  billing
11    office to receive and dispense all relevant State and federal
12    resources,   as  well  as  local  government  or  independent
13    resources available, for early  intervention  services.  This
14    office  shall  assure  that  maximum  federal  resources  are
15    utilized  and  that  providers  receive  funds  with  minimal
16    duplications  or  interagency reporting and with consolidated
17    audit procedures.
18        (f)  The lead agency shall, by rule, create a  system  of
19    payments by families, including a schedule of fees.  No fees,
20    however,   may  be  charged  for:  implementing  child  find,
21    evaluation    and    assessment,    service     coordination,
22    administrative  and  coordination  activities  related to the
23    development, review, and evaluation of Individualized  Family
24    Service Plans, or the implementation of procedural safeguards
25    and  other  administrative  components of the statewide early
26    intervention system.
27        The system of payments,  called  family  fees,  shall  be
28    structured  on  a  sliding  scale based on family income. The
29    family's coverage or lack  of  coverage  under  a  public  or
30    private  insurance  plan  or  policy shall not be a factor in
31    determining the amount of the family fees.
32        Each  family's  fee  obligation  shall   be   established
33    annually,  and  shall  be  paid  by  families  to the central
34    billing office in installments. At the written request of the
 
                            -555-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    family, the fee obligation shall be adjusted prospectively at
 2    any point during the year upon proof of a  change  in  family
 3    income  or  family  size.  The inability of the parents of an
 4    eligible  child  to  pay  family  fees  due  to  catastrophic
 5    circumstances or extraordinary expenses shall not  result  in
 6    the  denial of services to the child or the child's family. A
 7    family must document  its  extraordinary  expenses  or  other
 8    catastrophic  circumstances  by showing one of the following:
 9    (i) out-of-pocket medical expenses in excess of 15% of  gross
10    income;  (ii)  a  fire,  flood,  or  other disaster causing a
11    direct out-of-pocket loss in excess of 15% of  gross  income;
12    or    (iii)    other   catastrophic   circumstances   causing
13    out-of-pocket losses in excess of 15% of  gross  income.  The
14    family must present proof of loss to its service coordinator,
15    who  shall  document  it, and the lead agency shall determine
16    whether the fees shall be  reduced,  forgiven,  or  suspended
17    within 10 business days after the family's request.
18        (g)  To  ensure that early intervention funds are used as
19    the payor of last resort for early intervention services, the
20    lead  agency  shall  determine  at   the   point   of   early
21    intervention  intake,  and  again  at  any periodic review of
22    eligibility  thereafter  or   upon   a   change   in   family
23    circumstances, whether the family is eligible for or enrolled
24    in  any program for which payment is made directly or through
25    public or private insurance for  any  or  all  of  the  early
26    intervention services made available under this Act. The lead
27    agency shall establish procedures to ensure that payments are
28    made  either  directly  from these public and private sources
29    instead of from State or federal early intervention funds, or
30    as reimbursement for payments previously made from  State  or
31    federal early intervention funds.

 1        Section  68.   The  Mental   Health   and   Developmental
 2    Disabilities  Code  is amended by changing Sections 2-108 and
 3    3-601 as follows:

 4        (405 ILCS 5/2-108) (from Ch. 91 1/2, par. 2-108)
 5        Sec. 2-108.  Use of restraint.   Restraint  may  be  used
 6    only  as  a  therapeutic  measure to prevent a recipient from
 7    causing physical harm to himself or physical abuse to others.
 8    Restraint may only be  applied  by  a  person  who  has  been
 9    trained   in  the  application  of  the  particular  type  of
10    restraint to be utilized. In  no  event  shall  restraint  be
11    utilized   to  punish  or  discipline  a  recipient,  nor  is
12    restraint to be used as a convenience for the staff.
13        (a)  Except  as provided in this Section, restraint shall
14    be employed only upon  the  written  order  of  a  physician,
15    clinical  psychologist, clinical social worker, or registered
16    nurse with supervisory responsibilities.  No restraint  shall
17    be  ordered  unless  the  physician,  clinical  psychologist,
18    clinical  social worker, or registered nurse with supervisory
19    responsibilities, after personally  observing  and  examining
20    the  recipient,  is  clinically  satisfied  that  the  use of
21    restraint is justified to prevent the recipient from  causing
22    physical harm to himself or others. In no event may restraint
23    continue  for  longer  than  2  hours unless within that time
24    period  a  nurse  with  supervisory  responsibilities  or   a
25    physician   confirms,   in   writing,  following  a  personal
26    examination of the recipient, that  the  restraint  does  not
27    pose  an undue risk to the recipient's health in light of the
28    recipient's physical or medical condition.  The  order  shall
29    state the events leading up to the need for restraint and the
30    purposes  for  which  restraint is employed.  The order shall
31    also state the length of time restraint is to be employed and
32    the clinical justification for that length of time.  No order
33    for restraint shall be valid for  more  than  16  hours.   If
 
                            -557-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    further  restraint  is  required,  a new order must be issued
 2    pursuant to the requirements provided in this Section.
 3        (b)  In the event there is  an  emergency  requiring  the
 4    immediate  use of restraint, it may be ordered temporarily by
 5    a  qualified  person  only  where   a   physician,   clinical
 6    psychologist,  clinical  social  worker,  or registered nurse
 7    with  supervisory   responsibilities   is   not   immediately
 8    available.   In  that  event,  an  order by a nurse, clinical
 9    psychologist, clinical social worker, or physician  shall  be
10    obtained  pursuant  to  the  requirements  of this Section as
11    quickly as possible, and the recipient shall be examined by a
12    physician or supervisory  nurse  within  2  hours  after  the
13    initial employment of the emergency restraint. Whoever orders
14    restraint   in   emergency   situations  shall  document  its
15    necessity and place that  documentation  in  the  recipient's
16    record.
17        (c)  The  person  who  orders  restraint shall inform the
18    facility director or his designee in writing of  the  use  of
19    restraint within 24 hours.
20        (d)  The  facility  director  shall  review all restraint
21    orders daily and shall  inquire  into  the  reasons  for  the
22    orders for restraint by any person who routinely orders them.
23        (e)  Restraint  may be employed during all or part of one
24    24 hour  period,  the  period  commencing  with  the  initial
25    application  of  the  restraint.  However, once restraint has
26    been employed during one 24 hour period, it shall not be used
27    again on the same recipient during the next 48 hours  without
28    the prior written authorization of the facility director.
29        (f)  Restraint   shall   be  employed  in  a  humane  and
30    therapeutic manner and the person being restrained  shall  be
31    observed  by  a  qualified  person  as often as is clinically
32    appropriate but in no event less than once every 15  minutes.
33    The   qualified   person  shall  maintain  a  record  of  the
34    observations.  Specifically, unless  there  is  an  immediate
 
                            -558-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    danger  that  the  recipient  will physically harm himself or
 2    others, restraint shall be loosely applied to permit  freedom
 3    of  movement.   Further,  the recipient shall be permitted to
 4    have regular  meals  and  toilet  privileges  free  from  the
 5    restraint,  except  when  freedom  of  action  may  result in
 6    physical harm to the recipient or others.
 7        (g)  Every facility that employs restraint shall  provide
 8    training  in  the safe and humane application of each type of
 9    restraint employed.  The facility shall not authorize the use
10    of any type of restraint by an employee who has not  received
11    training  in  the safe and humane application of that type of
12    restraint.  Each facility in which restraint  is  used  shall
13    maintain  records detailing which employees have been trained
14    and are authorized  to  apply  restraint,  the  date  of  the
15    training  and  the  type  of  restraint that the employee was
16    trained to use.
17        (h)  Whenever restraint is  imposed  upon  any  recipient
18    whose  primary  mode  of  communication is sign language, the
19    recipient shall be permitted to  have  his  hands  free  from
20    restraint  for  brief  periods  each  hour hours, except when
21    freedom may result in  physical  harm  to  the  recipient  or
22    others.
23        (i)  A  recipient  who is restrained may only be secluded
24    at  the  same  time   pursuant   to   an   explicit   written
25    authorization  as  provided  in  Section  2-109 of this Code.
26    Whenever a recipient is restrained, a member of the  facility
27    staff shall remain with the recipient at all times unless the
28    recipient  has  been secluded.  A recipient who is restrained
29    and secluded shall be observed by a qualified person as often
30    as is clinically appropriate but in no event less than  every
31    15 minutes.
32        (j)  Whenever  restraint  is used, the recipient shall be
33    advised of his right, pursuant to Sections 2-200 and 2-201 of
34    this Code, to have any person of his choosing, including  the
 
                            -559-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    Guardianship and Advocacy Commission or the agency designated
 2    pursuant  to  the Protection and Advocacy for Developmentally
 3    Disabled Persons Act  notified of the restraint.  A recipient
 4    who is under guardianship may request that any person of  his
 5    choosing  be  notified  of  the  restraint whether or not the
 6    guardian approves of the notice.  Whenever  the  Guardianship
 7    and Advocacy Commission is notified that a recipient has been
 8    restrained,  it shall contact that recipient to determine the
 9    circumstances of the restraint and whether further action  is
10    warranted.

20    of   a  mental  health  facility  in  the  county  where  the

27        illness and a description of any acts, threats, or  other
28        behavior   or  pattern  of  or  behavior  supporting  the
29        assertion and the time and place of their occurrence.
30             2.  The name and  address  of  the  spouse,  parent,

 1        to believe may know or have any of the  other  names  and
 2        addresses.   If  the  petitioner  is unable to supply any
 3        such names and addresses, the petitioner shall state that
 4        diligent inquiry was made to learn this  information  and
 5        specify the steps taken.
 6             3.  The  petitioner's relationship to the respondent

 2             Contamination of Shallow Aquifers in  Illinois,"  by
 3             Berg,  Richard  C.,  et  al.; and the results of the
 4             physical   soil   classification   and   groundwater
 5             investigation indicate that an applicable  indicator
 6             contaminant    groundwater   quality   standard   or
 7             groundwater  objective  has  been  exceeded  at  the
 8             property  boundary  line  or  200  feet   from   the
 9             excavation,  whichever  is  less as a consequence of
10             the underground storage tank release.
11                  (B)  The underground storage tank is within the
12             minimum or maximum setback zone of a  potable  water
13             supply  well or regulated recharge area of a potable
14             water supply well.
15                  (C)  There is evidence that, through natural or

17             threaten  human  health or human safety or may cause
18             explosions  in  basements,  crawl  spaces,   utility
19             conduits,  storm or sanitary sewers, vaults or other
20             confined spaces.
21                  (D)  Class  III  special  resource  groundwater
22             exists within 200 feet of the excavation.
23                  (E)  A surface water body is adversely affected
24             by the presence of a visible sheen or  free  product
25             layer  as  the result of an underground storage tank
26             release.
27             (4)  Sites shall be classified as  Low  Priority  if
28        all of the following are met:
29                  (A)  The site does not meet any of the criteria
30             for classification as a High Priority Site.
31                  (B) (i)  The site is located in area designated

 6             consistent  with  those  indicated  on  the Illinois
 7             Geological Survey Circular (1984) titled  "Potential
 8             for  Contamination of Shallow Aquifers in Illinois,"
 9             by Berg, Richard C., et al.; and
10                  (iii)  the  results  of   the   physical   soil
11             classification  and groundwater investigation do not
12             indicate   an   applicable   indicator   contaminant
13             groundwater   quality   standard   or    groundwater
14             objective has been exceeded at the property boundary
15             line  or 200 feet from the underground storage tank,
16             whichever is less.
17             (5)  In the event the results of the  physical  soil
18        classification and any required groundwater investigation
19        reveal  that the actual site geologic characteristics are
20        different than those indicated by the Illinois Geological
21        Survey   Circular   (1984)    titled    "Potential    for
22        Contamination  of  Shallow Aquifers in Illinois" by Berg,
23        Richard C., et al., classification of the site  shall  be
24        determined     using    the    actual    site    geologic
25        characteristics.
26             (6)  For purposes of physical  soil  classification,
27        the  Board  is  authorized  to  prescribe  by  regulation
28        alternatives  to  use  of  the Illinois Geological Survey

21                  tank release  does  not  threaten  any  potable
22                  water supply.
23                       (ii)  The owner or operator submits to the
24                  Agency   a   certification   from   a  Licensed
25                  Professional Engineer that the  work  described
26                  in the approved corrective action plan has been
27                  completed and that the information presented in
28                  the  corrective  action  completion  report  is
29                  accurate and complete.
30             (2)  Low Priority Site.
31                  (A)  Corrective  action  at a low priority site
32             must include groundwater monitoring consistent  with
33             part (B) of this paragraph (2).
34                  (B)  Prior  to  implementation  of  groundwater

 1             monitoring,  the owner or operator shall prepare and
 2             submit to the Agency a groundwater  monitoring  plan
 3             and,  if  the  owner  or  operator  intends  to seek
 4             payment under this Title, an associated budget which
 5             includes, at a minimum, all of the following:
 6                       (i)  Placement of  groundwater  monitoring
 7                  wells at the property line, or at 200 feet from
 8                  the  excavation  which ever is closer, designed
 9                  to provide the greatest likelihood of detecting
10                  migration of groundwater contamination.
11                       (ii)  Quarterly groundwater sampling for a
12                  period of one year,  semi-annual  sampling  for
13                  the second year and annual groundwater sampling
14                  for  one  subsequent  year  for  all  indicator
15                  contaminants  identified during the groundwater
16                  investigation.
17                       (iii)  The annual submittal to the  Agency
18                  of a summary of groundwater sampling results.
19                  (C)  If   at   any  time  groundwater  sampling
20             results   indicate   a   confirmed   exceedence   of
21             applicable indicator contaminant groundwater quality
22             standards or groundwater objectives as a  result  of
23             the  underground  storage tank release, the site may
24             be reclassified as  a  High  Priority  Site  by  the
25             Agency   at  any  time  before  the  Agency's  final
26             approval of a Low  Priority  groundwater  monitoring
27             completion  report. Agency review and approval shall
28             be in accordance with paragraph  (4)  of  subsection
29             (c) of this Section. If the owner or operator elects
30             to appeal an Agency action to disapprove, modify, or
31             reject   by   operation   of   law  a  Low  Priority
32             groundwater monitoring completion report, the Agency
33             shall indicate to the Board in conjunction with such
34             appeal whether it intends to reclassify the site  as
 
                            -573-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             High  Priority.  If a site is reclassified as a High
 2             Priority Site, the owner or operator shall submit  a
 3             corrective  action  plan  and  budget  to the Agency
 4             within 120 days  of  the  confirmed  exceedence  and
 5             shall initiate compliance with all corrective action
 6             requirements for a High Priority Site.
 7                  (D)  If,  throughout  the implementation of the
 8             groundwater   monitoring   plan,   the   groundwater
 9             sampling results do not  confirm  an  exceedence  of
10             applicable indicator contaminant groundwater quality
11             standards  or  groundwater objectives as a result of
12             the underground storage tank release, the  owner  or
13             operator  shall submit to the Agency a certification
14             of a Licensed Professional Engineer so stating.
15                  (E)  Unless  the  Agency  takes  action   under
16             subsection  (b)(2)(C)  to  reclassify a site as high
17             priority, upon  receipt  of  a  certification  by  a
18             Licensed Professional Engineer submitted pursuant to
19             paragraph (2) of subsection (c) of this Section, the
20             Agency  shall  issue  to  the owner or operator a no
21             further  remediation  letter  in   accordance   with
22             Section 57.10.
23             (3)  No Further Action Site.
24                  (A)  No   Further   Action   sites  require  no
25             remediation beyond that required in Section 57.6 and
26             subsection (a) of  this  Section  if  the  owner  or
27             operator has submitted to the Agency a certification
28             by  a  Licensed  Professional Engineer that the site
29             meets all of the criteria for classification  as  No
30             Further Action in subsection (b) of this Section.
31                  (B)  Unless  the  Agency takes action to reject
32             or modify a site classification under subsection (b)
33             of  this  Section  or  the  site  classification  is
34             rejected by operation of law under  item  (4)(B)  of
 
                            -574-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             subsection  (c)  of  this Section, upon receipt of a
 2             certification by a  Licensed  Professional  Engineer
 3             submitted  pursuant  to part (A) of paragraph (3) of
 4             subsection (c) of this  Section,  the  Agency  shall
 5             issue   to  the  owner  or  operator  a  no  further
 6             remediation letter in accordance with Section 57.10.
 7             (4)  Agency review and approval.
 8                  (A)  Agency approval of any plan and associated
 9             budget, as described in  this  item  (4),  shall  be
10             considered  final  approval  for purposes of seeking
11             and obtaining payment from the  Underground  Storage
12             Tank   Fund   if   the  costs  associated  with  the
13             completion of any such plan are less than  or  equal
14             to the amounts approved in such budget.
15                  (B)  In  the event the Agency fails to approve,
16             disapprove, or modify any plan or  report  submitted
17             pursuant to this Title in writing within 120 days of
18             the  receipt by the Agency, the plan or report shall
19             be considered to be rejected by operation of law for
20             purposes of this Title and rejected for purposes  of
21             payment  from  the  Leaking Underground Storage Tank
22             Fund.
23                       (i)  For  purposes  of  those   plans   as
24                  identified   in   subparagraph   (E)   of  this
25                  subsection (c)(4), the Agency's review  may  be
26                  an audit procedure.  Such review or audit shall
27                  be  consistent  with  the  procedure  for  such
28                  review  or  audit  as  promulgated by the Board
29                  under item (7) of  subsection  (b)  of  Section
30                  57.14.    The   Agency  has  the  authority  to
31                  establish  an  auditing   program   to   verify
32                  compliance of such plans with the provisions of
33                  this Title.
34                       (ii)  For    purposes   of   those   plans
 
                            -575-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1                  submitted pursuant to Part (E)  (iii)  of  this
 2                  paragraph  (4)  for which payment from the Fund
 3                  is not being sought, the Agency need  not  take
 4                  action  on  such  plan  until 120 days after it
 5                  receives  the  corrective   action   completion
 6                  report  required  under Section 57(c)(1)(D). In
 7                  the event the  Agency  approved  the  plan,  it
 8                  shall  proceed  under the provisions of Section
 9                  57(c)(4).
10                  (C)  In approving any plan  submitted  pursuant
11             to  Part (E) of this paragraph (4), the Agency shall
12             determine, by a procedure promulgated by  the  Board
13             under  item  (7) of subsection (b) of Section 57.14,
14             that  the  costs  associated  with  the   plan   are
15             reasonable,  will  be incurred in the performance of
16             corrective  action,  and  will  not  be   used   for
17             corrective  action  activities  in  excess  of those
18             required to meet the minimum  requirements  of  this
19             title.
20                  (D)  For  any plan or report received after the
21             effective date of this amendatory Act of  1993,  any
22             action  by the Agency to disapprove or modify a plan
23             submitted pursuant to this Title shall  be  provided
24             to  the owner or operator in writing within 120 days
25             of the receipt by the Agency or, in the  case  of  a
26             corrective  action  plan  for  which  payment is not
27             being sought, within 120  days  of  receipt  of  the
28             corrective  action  completion  report, and shall be
29             accompanied by:
30                       (i)  an explanation  of  the  Sections  of
31                  this  Act  which  may  be violated if the plans
32                  were approved;
33                       (ii)  an explanation of the provisions  of
34                  the  regulations,  promulgated  under this Act,

 1                  which  may  be  violated  if  the   plan   were
 2                  approved;
 3                       (iii)  an explanation of the specific type
 4                  of  information, if any, which the Agency deems
 5                  the applicant did not provide the Agency; and
 6                       (iv)  a statement of specific reasons  why
 7                  the Act and the regulations might not be met if
 8                  the plan were approved.
 9                  Any  action  by  the  Agency  to  disapprove or
10             modify a plan or report or the rejection of any plan
11             or report by operation of law shall  be  subject  to
12             appeal   to   the   Board  in  accordance  with  the
13             procedures of Section 40. If the owner  or  operator
14             elects  to incorporate modifications required by the
15             Agency rather than appeal, an amended plan shall  be
16             submitted to the Agency within 35 days of receipt of
17             the Agency's written notification.
18                  (E)  For  purposes  of  this  Title,  the  term
19             "plan" shall include:
20                       (i)  Any  physical soil classification and
21                  groundwater   investigation   plan    submitted
22                  pursuant  to  item  (1)(A) of subsection (a) of
23                  this Section,  or  budget  under  item  (2)  of
24                  subsection (a) of this Section;
25                       (ii)  Any  groundwater  monitoring plan or
26                  budget   submitted   pursuant   to   subsection
27                  (c)(2)(B) of this Section;
28                       (iii)  Any    corrective    action    plan
29                  submitted pursuant to subsection  (c)(1)(A)  of
30                  this Section; or
31                       (iv)  Any  corrective  action  plan budget
32                  submitted pursuant to subsection  (c)(1)(B)  of
33                  this Section.

                            -577-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    contaminant"  shall  mean,  unless  and   until   the   Board
 2    promulgates  regulations  to the contrary, the following: (i)
 3    if  an  underground  storage  tank  contains  gasoline,   the
 4    indicator  parameter  shall  be BTEX and Benzene; (ii) if the
 5    tank  contained  petroleum  products  consisting  of   middle
 6    distillate  or heavy ends, then the indicator parameter shall
 7    be determined by a scan of  PNA's  taken  from  the  location
 8    where  contamination  is most likely to be present; and (iii)
 9    if  the  tank  contained  used  oil,   then   the   indicator
10    contaminant   shall  be  those  chemical  constituents  which
11    indicate the type  of  petroleum  stored  in  an  underground
12    storage  tank.    All references in this Title to groundwater
13    objectives  shall  mean  Class  I  groundwater  standards  or
14    objectives as applicable.
15        (e) (1)  Notwithstanding the provisions of this  Section,
16        an owner or operator may proceed to conduct physical soil
17        classification,     groundwater    investigation,    site
18        classification or other corrective action  prior  to  the
19        submittal  or approval of an otherwise required plan.  If
20        the owner or operator elects to so proceed, an applicable
21        plan shall be filed with the Agency at  any  time.   Such
22        plan  shall  detail the steps taken to determine the type
23        of corrective action which  was  necessary  at  the  site
24        along with the corrective action taken or to be taken, in
25        addition  to costs associated with activities to date and
26        anticipated costs.
27             (2)  Upon  receipt  of  a   plan   submitted   after
28        activities  have  commenced  at  a site, the Agency shall
29        proceed to review in the same manner  as  required  under
30        this  Title.   In the event the Agency disapproves all or
31        part of the costs, the owner or operator may appeal  such
32        decision  to  the Board.  The owner or operator shall not
33        be eligible to be reimbursed for such  disapproved  costs
34        unless  and  until  the  Board determines that such costs

21    borne by the person convicted.  In no event may the  dogs  be
22    adopted  by  the  defendant  or anyone residing in his or her

28        (a)  If an owner transfers his  interest  in  a  vehicle,
29    other  than  by  the  creation of a security interest, at the
30    time of the delivery of the vehicle he shall execute  to  the
31    transferee  an  assignment and warranty of title in the space
32    provided on the certificate of title, or as the Secretary  of
33    State prescribes, and cause the certificate and assignment to

 2    of State.
 3        If the vehicle is subject to a tax under the Mobile  Home
 4    Local  Services Tax Act in a county with a population of less
 5    than  3,000,000,  the  owner  shall  also  provide   to   the
 6    transferee  a certification by the treasurer of the county in
 7    which the vehicle is situated that all taxes imposed upon the
 8    vehicle for the years the owner was the actual titleholder of
 9    the vehicle have been paid.  The transferee shall  be  liable
10    only for the taxes he or she incurred while he or she was the
11    actual  titleholder of the mobile home.  The county treasurer
12    shall refund any amount of taxes paid by the transferee  that
13    were  imposed in years when the transferee was not the actual
14    titleholder.  The provisions of this amendatory Act  of  1997
15    (P.A.  90-542) apply retroactively to January 1, 1996.  In no
16    event may the county treasurer refund  amounts  paid  by  the
17    transferee  during  any  year except the 10 years immediately
18    preceding the year in which the refund is made.  If the owner
19    is a licensed dealer who has purchased  the  vehicle  and  is
20    holding  it  for resale, in lieu of acquiring a certification
21    from the county treasurer he shall forward the  certification
22    received  from  the  previous  owner to the next buyer of the
23    vehicle.  The owner  shall  cause  the  certification  to  be
24    mailed  or  delivered  to  the  Secretary  of  State with the
25    certificate of title and assignment.
26        (b)  Except as provided in Section 3-113, the  transferee
27    shall,  promptly  and within 20 days after delivery to him of
28    the vehicle and the assigned title, execute  the  application
29    for a new certificate of title in the space provided therefor
30    on  the  certificate or as the Secretary of State prescribes,
31    and cause the certificate and application  to  be  mailed  or
32    delivered to the Secretary of State.
33        (c)  Upon   request   of   the  owner  or  transferee,  a
34    lienholder in possession of the certificate of  title  shall,
 
                            -615-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    unless  the  transfer was a breach of his security agreement,
 2    either deliver the certificate to the transferee for delivery
 3    to  the  Secretary  of  State  or,  upon  receipt  from   the
 4    transferee   of  the  owner's  assignment,  the  transferee's
 5    application for a new certificate and the required fee,  mail
 6    or  deliver  them  to the Secretary of State. The delivery of
 7    the certificate does not affect the rights of the  lienholder
 8    under his security agreement.
 9        (d)  If a security interest is reserved or created at the
10    time  of  the  transfer,  the  certificate  of title shall be
11    retained by or  delivered  to  the  person  who  becomes  the
12    lienholder,  and the parties shall comply with the provisions
13    of Section 3-203.
14        (e)  Except as provided in Section 3-113 and  as  between
15    the  parties,  a  transfer by an owner is not effective until
16    the provisions of this Section and Section  3-115  have  been
17    complied with; however, an owner who has delivered possession
18    of  the  vehicle  to the transferee and has complied with the
19    provisions of this Section and Section 3-115 requiring action
20    by him as not liable as  owner  for  any  damages  thereafter
21    resulting from operation of the vehicle.
22        (f)  The   Secretary  of  State  shall  not  process  any
23    application for a transfer of an interest in a vehicle if any
24    fees or taxes due under this Act from the transferor  or  the
25    transferee  have  not  been  paid  upon reasonable notice and

30    population  of  less than 3,000,000, such application must be

18    title form the following information:
19             (1)  The odometer reading at the  time  of  transfer
20        and  an  indication  if  the  mileage is in excess of its
21        mechanical limits or if it is not the actual mileage;
22             (2)  The date of transfer;
23             (3)  The transferor's printed  name  and  signature;
24        and
25             (4)  The transferee's printed name and address.
26        (c)  The   transferee   must   sign  on  the  title  form
27    indicating  that  he  or  she  is  aware  of   the   odometer
28    certification made by the transferor.
29        (d)  The  transferor will not be required to disclose the
30    current odometer reading and the transferee will not have  to
31    acknowledge    such    disclosure    under    the   following
32    circumstances:
33             (1)  A vehicle having a Gross Vehicle Weight  Rating
 
                            -617-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        of more than 16,000 pounds;
 2             (2)  A vehicle that is not self-propelled;
 3             (3)  A vehicle that is 10 years old or older;
 4             (4)  A  vehicle sold directly by the manufacturer to
 5        any agency of the United States; and
 6             (5)  A vehicle manufactured without an odometer.
 7        (e)  When the transferor signs the  title  transfer  such
 8    transferor  acknowledges that he or she is aware that Federal
 9    regulations and State law require him or  her  to  state  the
10    odometer  mileage  upon transfer of ownership.  An inaccurate
11    or untruthful statement with intent to defraud  subjects  the
12    transferor   to  liability  for  damages  to  the  transferee
13    pursuant to the federal Motor Vehicle  Information  and  Cost
14    Act  of  1972,  P.L.  92-513  as  amended by P.L. 94-364.  No
15    transferor shall be liable for damages as provided under this
16    Section who transfers title to a motor vehicle which  has  an
17    odometer  reading that has been altered or tampered with by a
18    previous owner, unless that transferor knew or had reason  to
19    know  of  such  alteration or tampering and sold such vehicle
20    with an intent to defraud.   A  cause  of  action  is  hereby
21    created  by  which  any  person  who, with intent to defraud,
22    violates any requirement imposed under this Section shall  be
23    liable in an amount equal to the sum of:
24             (1)  three   times  the  amount  of  actual  damages
25        sustained or $1,500, whichever is the greater; and
26             (2)  in the case of any successful action to enforce
27        the foregoing liability, the costs of the action together
28        with reasonable attorney fees as determined by the court.
29        Any recovery based  on  a  cause  of  action  under  this
30    Section  shall be offset by any recovery made pursuant to the
31    federal Motor Vehicle Information and  Cost  Savings  Act  of
32    1972.
33        (f)  The  provisions  of  this Section shall not apply to
34    any motorcycle, motor driven cycle, moped or antique vehicle.

10        (c)  Whenever  a  person  is  convicted  of  any  of  the
11    offenses  enumerated in this Section, the court may recommend
12    and the Secretary of State in his discretion, without  regard
13    to  whether the recommendation is made by the court may, upon
14    application, issue to the person a restricted driving  permit
15    granting the privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the
16    petitioner's  residence  and petitioner's place of employment
17    or within the scope of the  petitioner's  employment  related
18    duties,  or  to  allow transportation for the petitioner or a

22    alcohol  remedial  or  rehabilitative  activity,  or  for the
23    petitioner to attend classes, as a student, in an  accredited
24    educational   institution;  if  the  petitioner  is  able  to
25    demonstrate that no alternative means  of  transportation  is
26    reasonably available and the petitioner will not endanger the
27    public  safety  or  welfare;  provided  that  the Secretary's
28    discretion shall be limited to  cases  where  undue  hardship
29    would  result  from a failure to issue the restricted driving
30    permit.
31        If a person's license  or  permit  has  been  revoked  or
32    suspended  due  to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
33    11-501 of this  Code  or  a  similar  provision  of  a  local
34    ordinance  or  a similar out-of-state offense, arising out of

 1    separate occurrences, that person,  if  issued  a  restricted
 2    driving  permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has been
 3    equipped with an ignition  interlock  device  as  defined  in
 4    Section 1-129.1.
 5        If  a  person's  license  or  permit  has been revoked or
 6    suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period  due  to  a
 7    single conviction of violating Section 11-501 of this Code or
 8    a  similar  provision  of  a  local  ordinance  or  a similar
 9    out-of-state offense,  and  a  statutory  summary  suspension
10    under  Section  11-501.1,  or  2  or  more  statutory summary
11    suspensions, or combination of 2 offenses, or of  an  offense
12    and  a  statutory summary suspension, arising out of separate
13    occurrences, that person,  if  issued  a  restricted  driving
14    permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped
15    with  an  ignition  interlock  device  as  defined in Section
16    1-129.1.  The person must pay to the Secretary of  State  DUI
17    Administration  Fund  an  amount not to exceed $20 per month.
18    The Secretary shall establish by  rule  the  amount  and  the
19    procedures,  terms, and conditions relating to these fees. If
20    the restricted  driving  permit  was  issued  for  employment
21    purposes, then this provision does not apply to the operation
22    of  an  occupational vehicle owned or leased by that person's
23    employer.  In each case the Secretary of State  may  issue  a
24    restricted  driving permit for a period he deems appropriate,
25    except that the permit shall expire within one year from  the
26    date  of  issuance.  The  Secretary may not, however, issue a
27    restricted  driving  permit  to  any  person  whose   current
28    revocation is the result of a second or subsequent conviction
29    for  a  violation of Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar
30    provision of a local ordinance relating  to  the  offense  of
31    operating  or  being  in  physical control of a motor vehicle
32    while under the influence of alcohol, other  drug  or  drugs,
33    intoxicating   compound   or   compounds,   or   any  similar
34    out-of-state offense, or any combination thereof,  until  the

 1    expiration  of  at  least  one  year  from  the  date  of the
 2    revocation.  A restricted driving permit  issued  under  this
 3    Section  shall  be  subject  to cancellation, revocation, and
 4    suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner  and  for
 5    like  cause  as a driver's license issued under this Code may
 6    be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a conviction
 7    upon  one  or  more  offenses  against  laws  or   ordinances
 8    regulating the movement of traffic shall be deemed sufficient
 9    cause  for  the  revocation, suspension, or cancellation of a
10    restricted driving permit. The Secretary of State may,  as  a
11    condition  to  the  issuance  of a restricted driving permit,
12    require the applicant to participate in a  designated  driver
13    remedial or rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is
14    authorized  to  cancel  a  restricted  driving  permit if the
15    permit holder does not  successfully  complete  the  program.
16    However,  if  an  individual's  driving  privileges have been
17    revoked in accordance with paragraph 13 of subsection (a)  of
18    this  Section,  no  restricted driving permit shall be issued
19    until the individual has served 6 months  of  the  revocation
20    period.
21        (d)  Whenever  a  person under the age of 21 is convicted
22    under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
23    local ordinance, the Secretary  of  State  shall  revoke  the
24    driving  privileges  of that person.  One year after the date
25    of revocation, and upon application, the Secretary  of  State
26    may,  if satisfied that the person applying will not endanger
27    the public safety or  welfare,  issue  a  restricted  driving
28    permit granting the privilege of driving a motor vehicle only
29    between  the  hours  of  5  a.m.  and  9 p.m. or as otherwise
30    provided by this Section for a period of  one  year.    After
31    this one year period, and upon reapplication for a license as
32    provided  in  Section  6-106, upon payment of the appropriate
33    reinstatement fee provided under  paragraph  (b)  of  Section
34    6-118,  the  Secretary of State, in his discretion, may issue
 
                            -649-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    the applicant a license, or  extend  the  restricted  driving
 2    permit  as  many  times  as  the  Secretary  of  State  deems
 3    appropriate, by additional periods of not more than 12 months
 4    each, until the applicant attains 21 years of age.
 5        If  a  person's  license  or  permit  has been revoked or
 6    suspended due to 2 or more convictions of  violating  Section
 7    11-501  of  this  Code  or  a  similar  provision  of a local
 8    ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, arising  out  of
 9    separate  occurrences,  that  person,  if issued a restricted
10    driving permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has  been
11    equipped  with  an  ignition  interlock  device as defined in
12    Section 1-129.1.
13        If a person's license  or  permit  has  been  revoked  or
14    suspended  2  or  more times within a 10 year period due to a
15    single conviction of violating Section 11-501 of this Code or
16    a similar  provision  of  a  local  ordinance  or  a  similar
17    out-of-state  offense,  and  a  statutory  summary suspension
18    under Section  11-501.1,  or  2  or  more  statutory  summary
19    suspensions,  or  combination of 2 offenses, or of an offense
20    and a statutory summary suspension, arising out  of  separate
21    occurrences,  that  person,  if  issued  a restricted driving
22    permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped
23    with an ignition  interlock  device  as  defined  in  Section
24    1-129.1.  The  person  must pay to the Secretary of State DUI
25    Administration Fund an amount not to exceed  $20  per  month.
26    The  Secretary  shall  establish  by  rule the amount and the
27    procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these fees.  If
28    the  restricted  driving  permit  was  issued  for employment
29    purposes, then this provision does not apply to the operation
30    of an occupational vehicle owned or leased by  that  person's
31    employer.   A  restricted  driving  permit  issued under this
32    Section shall be subject  to  cancellation,  revocation,  and
33    suspension  by  the Secretary of State in like manner and for
34    like cause as a driver's license issued under this  Code  may

 2    upon   one  or  more  offenses  against  laws  or  ordinances
 3    regulating the movement of traffic shall be deemed sufficient
 4    cause for the revocation, suspension, or  cancellation  of  a
 5    restricted  driving permit.  The revocation periods contained
 6    in this subparagraph  shall  apply  to  similar  out-of-state
 7    convictions.
 8        (e)  This  Section  is  subject  to the provisions of the
 9    Driver License Compact.
10        (f)  Any  revocation  imposed  upon  any   person   under
11    subsections  2  and  3  of paragraph (b) that is in effect on
12    December 31, 1988 shall be converted to a  suspension  for  a
13    like period of time.
14        (g)  The  Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted
15    driving permit to a person under the age of  16  years  whose
16    driving  privileges have been revoked under any provisions of
17    this Code.
18        (h)  The Secretary of State  shall  require  the  use  of
19    ignition  interlock  devices  on  all  vehicles  owned  by an
20    individual who has been convicted of a second  or  subsequent
21    offense  under  Section  11-501  of  this  Code  or a similar
22    provision  of  a  local  ordinance.   The   Secretary   shall
23    establish   by   rule   and  regulation  the  procedures  for
24    certification and use of the interlock system.
25        (i)  The Secretary of State may not  issue  a  restricted
26    driving  permit  for  a  period of one year after a second or
27    subsequent revocation  of  driving  privileges  under  clause
28    (a)(2) of this Section; however, one year after the date of a
29    second  or  subsequent revocation of driving privileges under
30    clause (a)(2) of this Section, the Secretary  of  State  may,
31    upon application, issue a restricted driving permit under the

26    provided that a certified copy of a stay order of a court  is
27    filed  with  the  Secretary  of  State.  If the conviction is

29    back  to  the  time  the  original judgment of conviction was
30    entered and the  6  month  limitation  prescribed  shall  not

32        (c) 1.  Upon  suspending or revoking the driver's license

 2        notice to be deposited in the United States mail, postage
 3        prepaid, to the last known address of the person.
 4             2.  If  the Secretary of State suspends the driver's
 5        license of a person under subsection 2 of  paragraph  (a)
 6        of  this  Section,  a  person's  privilege  to  operate a
 7        vehicle as an occupation shall not be suspended, provided
 8        an affidavit is properly completed, the  appropriate  fee
 9        received, and a permit issued prior to the effective date
10        of  the  suspension, unless 5 offenses were committed, at
11        least 2 of which occurred while  operating  a  commercial
12        vehicle   in   connection   with   the  driver's  regular
13        occupation.  All  other  driving  privileges   shall   be
14        suspended  by the Secretary of State. Any driver prior to
15        operating a vehicle for occupational purposes  only  must
16        submit  the  affidavit  on  forms  to  be provided by the
17        Secretary  of  State  setting  forth  the  facts  of  the
18        person's occupation.  The affidavit shall also state  the
19        number of offenses committed while operating a vehicle in
20        connection  with  the  driver's  regular  occupation. The
21        affidavit shall be accompanied by the  driver's  license.
22        Upon  receipt  of  a  properly  completed  affidavit, the
23        Secretary of State shall issue the  driver  a  permit  to
24        operate a vehicle in connection with the driver's regular
25        occupation  only.  Unless  the  permit  is  issued by the
26        Secretary of State prior to the date of  suspension,  the
27        privilege  to  drive any motor vehicle shall be suspended
28        as set forth in the notice that  was  mailed  under  this
29        Section.  If  an  affidavit is received subsequent to the
30        effective date of this suspension, a permit may be issued
31        for the remainder of the suspension period.
32             The provisions of this subparagraph shall not  apply
33        to  any  driver  required to obtain a commercial driver's
34        license under  Section  6-507  during  the  period  of  a
 
                            -658-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        disqualification  of  commercial driving privileges under
 2        Section 6-514.
 3             Any person  who  falsely  states  any  fact  in  the
 4        affidavit  required  herein  shall  be  guilty of perjury
 5        under Section 6-302 and  upon  conviction  thereof  shall
 6        have  all  driving  privileges  revoked  without  further
 7        rights.
 8             3.  At  the  conclusion  of  a hearing under Section
 9        2-118 of this Code, the Secretary of State  shall  either
10        rescind  or  continue  an  order  of  revocation or shall
11        substitute  an  order  of  suspension;  or,  good   cause
12        appearing  therefor, rescind, continue, change, or extend
13        the order of suspension.  If the Secretary of State  does
14        not   rescind   the   order,   the   Secretary  may  upon
15        application,  to  relieve   undue   hardship,   issue   a
16        restricted  driving  permit  granting  the  privilege  of
17        driving   a   motor   vehicle  between  the  petitioner's
18        residence and petitioner's place of employment or  within
19        the  scope  of his employment related duties, or to allow
20        transportation for the petitioner, or a household  member
21        of  the petitioner's family, to receive necessary medical
22        care  and  if  the  professional  evaluation   indicates,
23        provide    transportation   for   alcohol   remedial   or
24        rehabilitative activity, or for the petitioner to  attend
25        classes,  as  a  student,  in  an  accredited educational
26        institution; if the petitioner  is  able  to  demonstrate
27        that no alternative means of transportation is reasonably
28        available and the petitioner will not endanger the public
29        safety or welfare.
30             If  a person's license or permit has been revoked or
31        suspended due to  2  or  more  convictions  of  violating
32        Section  11-501  of this Code or a similar provision of a
33        local  ordinance  or  a  similar  out-of-state   offense,
34        arising  out  of  separate  occurrences,  that person, if
 
                            -659-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        issued a restricted driving permit,  may  not  operate  a
 2        vehicle  unless  it  has  been  equipped with an ignition
 3        interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
 4             If a person's license or permit has been revoked  or
 5        suspended  2 or more times within a 10 year period due to
 6        a single conviction of violating Section 11-501  of  this
 7        Code  or  a  similar  provision of a local ordinance or a
 8        similar out-of-state offense,  and  a  statutory  summary
 9        suspension under Section 11-501.1, or 2 or more statutory
10        summary  suspensions, or combination of 2 offenses, or of
11        an offense and a statutory  summary  suspension,  arising
12        out  of  separate  occurrences,  that person, if issued a
13        restricted driving permit,  may  not  operate  a  vehicle
14        unless  it  has  been equipped with an ignition interlock
15        device as defined in Section 1-129.1. The person must pay
16        to the Secretary of  State  DUI  Administration  Fund  an
17        amount  not to exceed $20 per month.  The Secretary shall
18        establish by rule the amount and the  procedures,  terms,
19        and  conditions relating to these fees. If the restricted
20        driving permit was issued for employment  purposes,  then
21        this  provision  does  not  apply  to the operation of an
22        occupational vehicle owned or  leased  by  that  person's
23        employer.   In  each  case  the  Secretary  may  issue  a
24        restricted   driving   permit   for   a   period   deemed
25        appropriate, except that all permits shall expire  within
26        one  year  from  the  date of issuance. The Secretary may
27        not, however, issue a restricted driving  permit  to  any
28        person whose current revocation is the result of a second
29        or  subsequent  conviction  for  a  violation  of Section
30        11-501 of this Code or a similar  provision  of  a  local
31        ordinance  relating  to the offense of operating or being
32        in physical control of a motor vehicle  while  under  the
33        influence  of  alcohol, other drug or drugs, intoxicating
34        compound  or  compounds,  or  any  similar   out-of-state
 
                            -660-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        offense,  or any combination of those offenses, until the
 2        expiration of at least one year  from  the  date  of  the
 3        revocation. A restricted driving permit issued under this
 4        Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
 5        suspension  by  the Secretary of State in like manner and
 6        for like cause as a driver's license  issued  under  this
 7        Code may be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that
 8        a  conviction  upon  one or more offenses against laws or
 9        ordinances regulating the movement of  traffic  shall  be
10        deemed  sufficient  cause for the revocation, suspension,
11        or cancellation  of  a  restricted  driving  permit.  The
12        Secretary of State may, as a condition to the issuance of
13        a  restricted  driving  permit,  require the applicant to
14        participate  in   a   designated   driver   remedial   or
15        rehabilitative   program.   The  Secretary  of  State  is
16        authorized to cancel a restricted driving permit  if  the
17        permit holder does not successfully complete the program.
18        (c-5)  The  Secretary of State may, as a condition of the
19    reissuance of a driver's license or permit  to  an  applicant
20    whose driver's license or permit has been suspended before he
21    or  she  reached  the  age of 18 years pursuant to any of the
22    provisions  of  this  Section,  require  the   applicant   to
23    participate  in  a  driver  remedial  education course and be
24    retested under Section 6-109 of this Code.
25        (d)  This Section is subject to  the  provisions  of  the
26    Drivers License Compact.
27        (e)  The  Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted
28    driving permit to a person under the age of  16  years  whose
29    driving  privileges have been suspended or  revoked under any
30    provisions of this Code.

11        Sec. 11-1201.  Obedience to signal indicating approach of
12    train.
13        (a)  Whenever any person driving a vehicle  approaches  a
14    railroad  grade  crossing  such person must exercise due care
15    and caution as the existence of a  railroad  track  across  a
16    highway  is  a  warning  of  danger,  and  under  any  of the
17    circumstances stated in this Section, the driver  shall  stop
18    within  50  feet  but  not less than 15 feet from the nearest
19    rail of the railroad and shall not proceed until he can do so
20    safely.  The foregoing requirements shall apply when:
21             1.  A clearly visible electric or mechanical  signal
22        device  gives  warning  of  the  immediate  approach of a
23        railroad train;
24             2.  A crossing gate is lowered or  a  human  flagman
25        gives  or  continues  to give a signal of the approach or
26        passage of a railroad train;
27             3.  A railroad train approaching a highway  crossing
28        emits a warning signal and such railroad train, by reason
29        of  its  speed  or  nearness  to  such  crossing,  is  an
30        immediate hazard;
31             4.  An approaching railroad train is plainly visible
32        and is in hazardous proximity to such crossing;.
33             5.  A  railroad train is approaching so closely that
 
                            -678-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        an immediate hazard is created.
 2        (b)  No person shall drive any vehicle through, around or
 3    under any crossing gate or barrier  at  a  railroad  crossing
 4    while  such  gate  or barrier is closed or is being opened or
 5    closed.
 6        (c)  The  Department,  and  local  authorities  with  the
 7    approval  of  the  Department,  are  hereby   authorized   to
 8    designate  particularly  dangerous highway grade crossings of
 9    railroads and to erect stop signs thereat.   When  such  stop
10    signs are erected the driver of any vehicle shall stop within
11    50  feet  but  not less than 15 feet from the nearest rail of
12    such railroad and shall  proceed  only  upon  exercising  due
13    care.
14        (d)  At   any   railroad  grade  crossing  provided  with
15    railroad crossbuck signs,  without  automatic,  electric,  or
16    mechanical signal devices, crossing gates, or a human flagman
17    giving  a  signal  of the approach or passage of a train, the
18    driver of a  vehicle  shall  in  obedience  to  the  railroad
19    crossbuck  sign,  yield  the  right-of-way and slow down to a
20    speed reasonable for the existing conditions and shall  stop,
21    if  required for safety, at a clearly marked stopped line, or
22    if no stop line, within 50 feet but not  less  than  15  feet
23    from  the  nearest rail of the railroad and shall not proceed
24    until he or she can do so safely.  If a driver is involved in
25    a collision at a railroad crossing  or  interferes  with  the
26    movement of a train after driving past the railroad crossbuck
27    sign,  the  collision or interference is prima facie evidence
28    of the driver's failure to yield right-of-way.
29        (d-5)  No person may drive any vehicle through a railroad
30    crossing if there is insufficient space to  drive  completely
31    through the crossing without stopping.
32        (e)  It  is unlawful to violate any part of this Section.
33    A first conviction of a person for a violation of any part of
34    this Section shall result in a mandatory fine  of  $250;  all
 
                            -679-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    subsequent  convictions  of  that person for any violation of
 2    any part of this Section shall each  result  in  a  mandatory
 3    fine of $500.
 4        (f)  Corporate   authorities  of  municipal  corporations
 5    regulating operators of vehicles that fail  to  obey  signals
 6    indicating the presence, approach, passage, or departure of a
 7    train  shall impose fines as established in subsection (e) of
 8    this Section.

13    System.
14        (a)  For the  purposes  of  this  Section,  an  automated
15    railroad  grade  crossing  enforcement  system  is  a  system
16    operated  by a law enforcement agency that records a driver's
17    response  to  automatic,  electrical  or  mechanical   signal
18    devices  and crossing gates.  The system shall be designed to
19    obtain a clear photograph or  other  recorded  image  of  the
20    vehicle,  vehicle operator and the vehicle registration plate
21    of a vehicle in violation of Section 11-1201.  The photograph
22    or other recorded image shall also display the time, date and
23    location of the violation.
24        (b)  Commencing on January 1, 1996, the Illinois Commerce
25    Commission and  the  Commuter  Rail  Board  of  the  Regional
26    Transportation Authority shall, in cooperation with local law
27    enforcement agencies, establish a 5 year pilot program within
28    a  county  with a population of between 750,000 and 1,000,000
29    using  an  automated  railroad  grade  crossing   enforcement
30    system.   The Commission shall determine the 3 railroad grade
31    crossings within that county that pose the greatest threat to
32    human life based upon the number of accidents and  fatalities
33    at the crossings during the past 5 years and with approval of

 2    automated railroad grade crossing enforcement system.
 3        (b-1)  Commencing on July 20, 2001 (the effective date of
 4    Public Act 92-98) this amendatory Act  of  the  92nd  General
 5    Assembly,  the  Illinois Commerce Commission and the Commuter
 6    Rail Board may, in cooperation with the local law enforcement
 7    agency, establish in a county with a  population  of  between
 8    750,000  and  1,000,000  a  2  year  pilot  program  using an
 9    automated railroad grade crossing  enforcement  system.  This
10    pilot program may be established at a railroad grade crossing
11    designated  by  local  authorities.    No State moneys may be
12    expended on the automated railroad grade crossing enforcement
13    system established under this pilot program.
14        (c)  For each violation of Section 11-1201 recorded by an
15    automatic railroad  grade  crossing  system,  the  local  law
16    enforcement  agency having jurisdiction shall issue a written
17    Uniform Traffic Citation of the violation to  the  registered
18    owner  of  the  vehicle as the alleged violator.  The Uniform
19    Traffic Citation shall be delivered to the  registered  owner
20    of  the  vehicle,  by  mail, within 30 days of the violation.
21    The Uniform Traffic  Citation  shall  include  the  name  and
22    address  of  vehicle  owner, the vehicle registration number,
23    the offense charged, the time,  date,  and  location  of  the
24    violation,  the first available court date and that the basis
25    of the citation is the photograph  or  other  recorded  image
26    from   the  automated  railroad  grade  crossing  enforcement
27    system.
28        (d)  The  Uniform  Traffic   Citation   issued   to   the
29    registered  owner  of  the  vehicle shall be accompanied by a
30    written notice,  the  contents  of  which  is  set  forth  in
31    subsection   (d-1)   of  this  Section,  explaining  how  the
32    registered owner of the  vehicle  can  elect  to  proceed  by

17        If you fail  to  so  notify  in  writing  the  local  law
18        enforcement  agency  of  the  name  and  address  of  the
19        operator  of  the  vehicle  at  the  time  of the alleged
20        offense, you may be presumed to have been the operator of

23    operator of the vehicle at the time of the  alleged  offense,
24    and   if   the   registered  owner  notifies  the  local  law
25    enforcement  agency  having  jurisdiction  of  the  name  and
26    address of the operator of the vehicle at  the  time  of  the

29    Citation  to  the  person  alleged by the registered owner to
30    have been the operator of the vehicle  at  the  time  of  the
31    alleged  offense.  If the registered owner fails to notify in

33    of the name and address of the operator of the vehicle at the
34    time  of  the  alleged  offense,  the registered owner may be

 2    of the alleged offense.
 3        (e)  Evidence.
 4             (i)  A certificate  alleging  that  a  violation  of
 5        Section  11-1201 occurred, sworn to or affirmed by a duly
 6        authorized agency, based on inspection of recorded images
 7        produced by an automated  railroad  crossing  enforcement
 8        system  are  evidence  of  the  facts  contained  in  the
 9        certificate and are admissible in any proceeding alleging
10        a violation under this Section.
11             (ii)  Photographs  or  recorded  images  made  by an
12        automatic railroad grade crossing enforcement system  are
13        confidential  and  shall  be  made  available only to the
14        alleged violator and  governmental  and  law  enforcement
15        agencies  for  purposes  of  adjudicating  a violation of
16        Section 11-1201 of the Illinois Vehicle  Code.   However,
17        any  photograph  or  other  recorded  image  evidencing a
18        violation of Section 11-1201 shall be admissible  in  any
19        proceeding  resulting  from  the  issuance of the Uniform
20        Traffic Citation when there is reasonable and  sufficient
21        proof  of  the  accuracy  of  the  camera  or  electronic
22        instrument  recording  the  image.  There is a rebuttable
23        presumption that the  photograph  or  recorded  image  is
24        accurate if the camera or electronic recording instrument
25        was in good working order at the beginning and the end of
26        the day of the alleged offense.
27        (f)  Rail  crossings  equipped with an automatic railroad
28    grade crossing enforcement system shall be posted with a sign
29    visible to approaching  traffic  stating  that  the  railroad
30    grade  crossing  is  being  monitored, that citations will be
31    issued, and the amount of the fine for violation.

33    the  installation  and maintenance of each automatic railroad
34    grade crossing enforcement system  shall  be  paid  from  the

 4    rail line is owned by the Commuter Rail Board of the Regional
 5    Transportation Authority, the costs of the  installation  and
 6    maintenance  shall  be  paid from the Regional Transportation
 7    Authority's portion of the Public Transportation Fund.
 8        (h)  The  Illinois  Commerce  Commission  shall  issue  a
 9    report to the General Assembly at the  conclusion  of  the  5
10    year  pilot  program  established under subsection (b) on the
11    effectiveness  of  the  automatic  railroad  grade   crossing
12    enforcement system.
13        (i)  If  any  part or parts of this Section are held by a
14    court of competent jurisdiction to be  unconstitutional,  the
15    unconstitutionality  shall  not  affect  the  validity of the
16    remaining parts of this Section.  The General Assembly hereby
17    declares that it would have passed  the  remaining  parts  of
18    this  Section if it had known that the other part or parts of
19    this Section would be declared unconstitutional.

                            -700-              LRB9215370EGfg

 8        accompanying   the  minor,  and  advance  approval  by  a
 9        probation officer;
10             (r)  refrain from having any  contact,  directly  or

22        the presence of any illicit drug;  or
23             (t)  comply  with  any  other  conditions  as may be

25        (6)  A minor whose case is  continued  under  supervision
26    under  subsection  (5)  shall  be given a certificate setting
27    forth the conditions imposed by the court.  Those  conditions
28    may  be reduced, enlarged, or modified by the court on motion
29    of the probation officer or on its own motion, or that of the
30    State's Attorney, or, at  the  request  of  the  minor  after
31    notice and hearing.
32        (7)  If  a  petition  is  filed charging a violation of a
33    condition of the continuance  under  supervision,  the  court
34    shall conduct a hearing.  If the court finds that a condition
 
                            -701-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    of  supervision has not been fulfilled, the court may proceed
 2    to findings and adjudication and disposition.  The filing  of
 3    a  petition  for  violation of a condition of the continuance
 4    under supervision shall toll the period of continuance  under
 5    supervision  until the final determination of the charge, and
 6    the term of the continuance under supervision shall  not  run
 7    until  the  hearing  and  disposition  of  the  petition  for
 8    violation;   provided where the petition alleges conduct that
 9    does not constitute a criminal offense, the hearing  must  be
10    held  within  30  days of the filing of the petition unless a
11    delay shall continue the tolling of the period of continuance
12    under supervision for the period of the delay.
13        (8)  When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to  be  a
14    delinquent  for  reasons  that include a violation of Section
15    21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 is continued  under  this
16    Section,  the  court shall, as a condition of the continuance
17    under supervision, require the  minor  to  perform  community
18    service  for not less than 30 and not more than 120 hours, if
19    community service is  available  in  the  jurisdiction.   The
20    community  service shall include, but need not be limited to,
21    the cleanup and repair of the damage that was caused  by  the
22    alleged  violation  or  similar damage to property located in
23    the municipality or county in  which  the  alleged  violation
24    occurred.   The  condition  may  be  in addition to any other
25    condition.
26        (8.5)  When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to be a
27    delinquent for reasons that include a  violation  of  Section
28    3.02  or  Section  3.03 of the Humane Care for Animals Act or
29    paragraph (d) of  subsection  (1)  of  Section  21-1  of  the
30    Criminal  Code  of  1961 is continued under this Section, the
31    court  shall,  as  a  condition  of  the  continuance   under
32    supervision,   require   the  minor  to  undergo  medical  or
33    psychiatric  treatment  rendered   by   a   psychiatrist   or
34    psychological  treatment rendered by a clinical psychologist.
 
                            -702-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    The condition may be in addition to any other condition.
 2        (9)  When a hearing in which a minor is alleged to  be  a
 3    delinquent is continued under this Section, the court, before
 4    continuing the case, shall make a finding whether the offense
 5    alleged to have been committed either:  (i) was related to or
 6    in  furtherance of the activities of an organized gang or was
 7    motivated by the minor's membership in or  allegiance  to  an
 8    organized  gang,  or (ii) is a violation of paragraph (13) of
 9    subsection (a) of Section 12-2 of the Criminal Code of  1961,
10    a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the Criminal Code
11    of  1961,  or  a  violation  of any statute that involved the
12    unlawful use of a  firearm.   If  the  court  determines  the
13    question  in  the affirmative the court shall, as a condition
14    of the continuance under supervision and as  part  of  or  in
15    addition  to  any other condition of the supervision, require
16    the minor to perform community service for not less  than  30
17    hours,  provided  that  community service is available in the
18    jurisdiction and is funded and approved by the  county  board
19    of the county where the offense was committed.  The community
20    service  shall  include,  but  need  not  be  limited to, the
21    cleanup and  repair  of  any  damage  caused  by  an  alleged
22    violation  of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 and
23    similar damage to property located  in  the  municipality  or
24    county   in  which  the  alleged  violation  occurred.   When
25    possible and  reasonable,  the  community  service  shall  be
26    performed  in  the minor's neighborhood.  For the purposes of
27    this Section, "organized gang" has the meaning ascribed to it
28    in Section 10 of the Illinois  Streetgang  Terrorism  Omnibus
29    Prevention Act.
30        (10)  The  court  shall  impose  upon  a  minor placed on
31    supervision, as a condition of the supervision, a fee of  $25
32    for  each  month  of supervision ordered by the court, unless
33    after determining  the  inability  of  the  minor  placed  on
34    supervision  to  pay  the  fee,  the  court assesses a lesser
 
                            -703-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    amount.  The court may not impose the fee on a minor  who  is
 2    made a ward of the State under this Act while the minor is in
 3    placement.  The fee shall be imposed only upon a minor who is
 4    actively  supervised  by  the  probation  and  court services
 5    department.  A court may order the parent, guardian, or legal
 6    custodian of the minor to pay some or all of the fee  on  the
 7    minor's behalf.

17    offense which is first degree murder, a Class X felony  or  a
18    forcible  felony.  The juvenile court may terminate probation
19    or conditional discharge and discharge the minor at any  time
20    if  warranted  by  the  conduct  of the minor and the ends of
21    justice;  provided, however, that the period of probation for
22    a minor who is found to be guilty for  an  offense  which  is
23    first  degree  murder, a Class X felony, or a forcible felony
24    shall be at least 5 years.

 7        (6)  The  General Assembly finds that in order to protect
 8    the  public,  the  juvenile  justice   system   must   compel
 9    compliance  with the conditions of probation by responding to
10    violations with swift,  certain,  and  fair  punishments  and
11    intermediate  sanctions.   The  Chief  Judge  of each circuit
12    shall adopt a system of  structured,  intermediate  sanctions
13    for  violations  of the terms and conditions of a sentence of
14    supervision, probation or conditional discharge,  under  this
15    Act.
16        The  court  shall provide as a condition of a disposition
17    of probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the
18    probation agency may invoke any sanction  from  the  list  of
19    intermediate  sanctions  adopted  by  the  chief judge of the
20    circuit court for violations of the terms and  conditions  of
21    the   sentence   of   probation,  conditional  discharge,  or
22    supervision, subject to the provisions of  Section  5-720  of
23    this Act.

 4    health,  except  that  it  is  not  unlawful  for a person to
 5    relinquish a child in accordance with the  Abandoned  Newborn
 6    Infant Protection Act.

15    recognizance,  the  conditions of the bail bond shall be that
16    he or she will:
17             (1)  Appear to answer the charge in the court having
18        jurisdiction on a day certain and thereafter  as  ordered

21             (2)  Submit himself or herself  to  the  orders  and
22        process of the court;

28        surrender all firearms in his or her possession to a  law

 7        Article 24 of the Criminal Code of 1961; the  court  may,
 8        however,  forgo the imposition of this condition when the
 9        circumstances of the case clearly do not  warrant  it  or
10        when  its  imposition  would  be impractical; all legally
11        possessed firearms shall be returned to the  person  upon
12        that  person  completing a sentence for a conviction on a
13        misdemeanor domestic  battery,  upon  the  charges  being

20        violation  occurred  in  a  school  or  in any conveyance
21        owned, leased, or contracted by  a  school  to  transport
22        students  to or from school or a school-related activity,
23        or on any public way within 1,000 feet of  real  property
24        comprising any school.
25        Psychological   evaluations   ordered  pursuant  to  this
26    Section shall be completed promptly and made available to the
27    State, the defendant, and the court.  As a further  condition
28    of  bail under these circumstances, the court shall order the
29    defendant to refrain from entering upon the property  of  the

32    school-related activity, or on any public  way  within  1,000
33    feet of real property comprising any school.  Upon receipt of
34    the   psychological  evaluation,  either  the  State  or  the
 
                            -711-              LRB9215370EGfg

 3    the  conditions  of  bail  to  include a requirement that the
 4    defendant follow the  recommendations  of  the  psychological

 6    conclusions  of  the   psychological   evaluation   and   any
 7    statements   elicited   from   the   defendant   during   its
 8    administration are not admissible as evidence of guilt during
 9    the  course  of  any trial on the charged offense, unless the
10    defendant places his or her mental competency in issue.
11        (b)  The court may impose other conditions, such  as  the
12    following,  if  the  court  finds  that  such  conditions are
13    reasonably necessary to assure the defendant's appearance  in
14    court,  protect the public from the defendant, or prevent the
15    defendant's   unlawful   interference   with   the    orderly
16    administration of justice:

10        day of such bail supervision ordered by the court, unless
11        after determining the inability of the defendant  to  pay
12        the fee, the court assesses a lesser fee or no fee as the
13        case  may be.  The fee shall be collected by the clerk of

20             (7)  When  a  defendant  is  adjudged   a   habitual
21        criminal  under Article 33B of the Criminal Code of 1961,
22        the court shall sentence  the  defendant  to  a  term  of
23        natural life imprisonment.
24             (8)  When  a defendant, over the age of 21 years, is
25        convicted of a Class 1 or Class 2  felony,  after  having
26        twice  been convicted in any state or federal court of an
27        offense that contains the same elements as an offense now
28        classified in Illinois as a  Class  2  or  greater  Class
29        felony  and such charges are separately brought and tried
30        and arise out of different series of acts, such defendant
31        shall be sentenced as a Class X offender. This  paragraph
32        shall not apply unless (1) the first felony was committed
33        after  the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1977;
34        and (2) the second felony was committed after  conviction
 
                            -725-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        on  the  first;  and  (3)  the third felony was committed
 2        after conviction on the second. A person sentenced  as  a
 3        Class  X offender under this paragraph is not eligible to
 4        apply for  treatment  as  a  condition  of  probation  as
 5        provided  by  Section  40-10  of the Alcoholism and Other
 6        Drug Abuse and Dependency Act.
 7             (9)  A defendant convicted of a second or subsequent
 8        offense of ritualized abuse of a child may  be  sentenced
 9        to a term of natural life imprisonment.
10             (10)  When   a  person  is  convicted  of  violating
11        Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a  similar
12        provision  of  a local ordinance, the following penalties
13        apply when his or her blood, breath, or urine was .16  or
14        more  based  on the definition of blood, breath, or urine
15        units in Section 11-501.2 or that person is convicted  of
16        violating  Section  11-501  of  the Illinois Vehicle Code
17        while transporting a child under the age of 16:
18                  (A)  For a first violation of subsection (a) of
19             Section 11-501, in addition  to  any  other  penalty
20             that  may be imposed under subsection (c) of Section
21             11-501:  a  mandatory  minimum  of  100   hours   of
22             community service and a minimum fine of $500.
23                  (B)  For  a  second violation of subsection (a)
24             of Section 11-501, in addition to any other  penalty
25             that  may be imposed under subsection (c) of Section
26             11-501 within 10 years: a  mandatory  minimum  of  2
27             days of imprisonment and a minimum fine of $1,250.
28                  (C)  For a third violation of subsection (a) of
29             Section  11-501,  in  addition  to any other penalty
30             that may be imposed under subsection (c) of  Section
31             11-501  within  20  years: a mandatory minimum of 90
32             days of imprisonment and a minimum fine of $2,500.
33                  (D)  For a fourth or  subsequent  violation  of
34             subsection  (a) of Section 11-501: ineligibility for
 
                            -726-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             a sentence of probation or conditional discharge and
 2             a minimum fine of $2,500.
 3        (d)  In any case in which a sentence  originally  imposed
 4    is  vacated,  the  case shall be remanded to the trial court.
 5    The trial court shall hold a hearing under Section  5-4-1  of
 6    the Unified Code of Corrections which may include evidence of
 7    the  defendant's  life, moral character and occupation during
 8    the time since the original sentence was passed.   The  trial
 9    court  shall  then  impose  sentence upon the defendant.  The
10    trial court may impose any sentence  which  could  have  been
11    imposed at the original trial subject to Section 5-5-4 of the
12    Unified  Code  of  Corrections.  If  a sentence is vacated on
13    appeal or on collateral attack due  to  the  failure  of  the
14    trier of fact at trial to determine beyond a reasonable doubt
15    the  existence  of  a  fact  (other  than a prior conviction)
16    necessary to increase the punishment for the  offense  beyond
17    the   statutory  maximum  otherwise  applicable,  either  the
18    defendant may be re-sentenced to  a  term  within  the  range
19    otherwise  provided  or,  if  the  State  files notice of its
20    intention to again seek the extended sentence, the  defendant
21    shall be afforded a new trial.
22        (e)  In  cases  where  prosecution  for  criminal  sexual
23    assault  or  aggravated  criminal  sexual abuse under Section
24    12-13 or 12-16 of  the  Criminal  Code  of  1961  results  in
25    conviction  of  a  defendant  who  was a family member of the
26    victim at the time of the  commission  of  the  offense,  the
27    court shall consider the safety and welfare of the victim and
28    may impose a sentence of probation only where:
29             (1)  the   court  finds  (A)  or  (B)  or  both  are
30        appropriate:
31                  (A)  the defendant  is  willing  to  undergo  a
32             court  approved  counseling  program  for  a minimum
33             duration of 2 years; or
34                  (B)  the defendant is willing to participate in
 
                            -727-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             a court approved plan including but not  limited  to
 2             the defendant's:
 3                       (i)  removal from the household;
 4                       (ii)  restricted contact with the victim;
 5                       (iii)  continued  financial support of the
 6                  family;
 7                       (iv)  restitution for  harm  done  to  the
 8                  victim; and
 9                       (v)  compliance  with  any  other measures
10                  that the court may deem appropriate; and
11             (2)  the court orders the defendant to pay  for  the
12        victim's  counseling  services,  to  the  extent that the
13        court finds, after considering the defendant's income and
14        assets, that the  defendant  is  financially  capable  of
15        paying  for  such  services,  if  the victim was under 18
16        years of age at the time the offense  was  committed  and
17        requires counseling as a result of the offense.
18        Probation  may be revoked or modified pursuant to Section
19    5-6-4; except where the court determines at the hearing  that
20    the  defendant  violated  a condition of his or her probation
21    restricting contact with the victim or other  family  members
22    or  commits  another  offense with the victim or other family
23    members, the court shall revoke the defendant's probation and
24    impose a term of imprisonment.
25        For the purposes of this  Section,  "family  member"  and
26    "victim"  shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Section
27    12-12 of the Criminal Code of 1961.
28        (f)  This Article shall not  deprive  a  court  in  other
29    proceedings  to order a forfeiture of property, to suspend or
30    cancel a license, to remove  a  person  from  office,  or  to
31    impose any other civil penalty.
32        (g)  Whenever  a  defendant  is  convicted  of an offense
33    under Sections 11-14, 11-15, 11-15.1,  11-16,  11-17,  11-18,
34    11-18.1,  11-19,  11-19.1,  11-19.2,  12-13,  12-14, 12-14.1,
 
                            -728-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    12-15 or 12-16 of the Criminal Code of  1961,  the  defendant
 2    shall  undergo  medical  testing  to  determine  whether  the
 3    defendant has any sexually transmissible disease, including a
 4    test for infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or
 5    any    other   identified   causative   agent   of   acquired
 6    immunodeficiency syndrome  (AIDS).   Any  such  medical  test
 7    shall  be  performed  only  by appropriately licensed medical
 8    practitioners and may  include  an  analysis  of  any  bodily
 9    fluids  as  well as an examination of the defendant's person.
10    Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of such test
11    shall be kept strictly confidential by all medical  personnel
12    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
13    sealed  envelope  to  the  judge  of  the  court in which the
14    conviction was entered for the judge's inspection in  camera.
15    Acting  in  accordance  with the best interests of the victim
16    and the public,  the  judge  shall  have  the  discretion  to
17    determine  to whom, if anyone, the results of the testing may
18    be revealed. The court shall notify the defendant of the test
19    results.  The court shall also notify the victim if requested
20    by the victim, and if the victim is under the age of  15  and
21    if  requested  by the victim's parents or legal guardian, the
22    court shall notify the victim's parents or legal guardian  of
23    the test results.  The court shall provide information on the
24    availability  of  HIV testing and counseling at Department of
25    Public Health facilities to all parties to whom  the  results
26    of  the  testing  are  revealed  and shall direct the State's
27    Attorney to  provide  the  information  to  the  victim  when
28    possible. A State's Attorney may petition the court to obtain
29    the  results of any HIV test administered under this Section,
30    and the court shall  grant  the  disclosure  if  the  State's
31    Attorney  shows it is relevant in order to prosecute a charge
32    of criminal transmission of HIV under Section 12-16.2 of  the
33    Criminal Code of 1961 against the defendant.  The court shall
34    order  that  the  cost  of any such test shall be paid by the
 
                            -729-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    county and may  be  taxed  as  costs  against  the  convicted
 2    defendant.
 3        (g-5)  When   an   inmate   is  tested  for  an  airborne
 4    communicable  disease,  as   determined   by   the   Illinois
 5    Department  of  Public  Health  including  but not limited to
 6    tuberculosis, the results of the  test  shall  be  personally
 7    delivered  by  the  warden or his or her designee in a sealed
 8    envelope to the judge of the court in which the  inmate  must
 9    appear  for  the judge's inspection in camera if requested by
10    the judge.  Acting in accordance with the best  interests  of
11    those  in  the courtroom, the judge shall have the discretion
12    to determine what if any precautions  need  to  be  taken  to
13    prevent transmission of the disease in the courtroom.
14        (h)  Whenever  a  defendant  is  convicted  of an offense
15    under Section 1 or 2 of the Hypodermic Syringes  and  Needles
16    Act, the defendant shall undergo medical testing to determine
17    whether   the   defendant   has   been   exposed   to   human
18    immunodeficiency   virus   (HIV)   or  any  other  identified
19    causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
20    Except as otherwise provided by law, the results of such test
21    shall be kept strictly confidential by all medical  personnel
22    involved in the testing and must be personally delivered in a
23    sealed  envelope  to  the  judge  of  the  court in which the
24    conviction was entered for the judge's inspection in  camera.
25    Acting  in  accordance with the best interests of the public,
26    the judge shall have the discretion to determine to whom,  if
27    anyone, the results of the testing may be revealed. The court
28    shall  notify  the  defendant  of  a positive test showing an
29    infection with the human immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV).  The
30    court  shall  provide  information on the availability of HIV
31    testing  and  counseling  at  Department  of  Public   Health
32    facilities  to all parties to whom the results of the testing
33    are revealed and shall direct the State's Attorney to provide
34    the information  to  the  victim  when  possible.  A  State's
 
                            -730-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    Attorney  may petition the court to obtain the results of any
 2    HIV test administered under  this   Section,  and  the  court
 3    shall  grant  the disclosure if the State's Attorney shows it
 4    is relevant in  order  to  prosecute  a  charge  of  criminal
 5    transmission  of  HIV  under  Section 12-16.2 of the Criminal
 6    Code of 1961 against the defendant.  The  court  shall  order
 7    that  the  cost  of any such test shall be paid by the county
 8    and may be taxed as costs against the convicted defendant.
 9        (i)  All fines and penalties imposed under  this  Section
10    for any violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois
11    Vehicle  Code,  or  a similar provision of a local ordinance,
12    and any violation of the Child Passenger Protection Act, or a
13    similar provision of a local ordinance,  shall  be  collected
14    and  disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section
15    27.5 of the Clerks of Courts Act.
16        (j)  In cases  when  prosecution  for  any  violation  of
17    Section  11-6,  11-8,  11-9,  11-11,  11-14,  11-15, 11-15.1,
18    11-16,  11-17,  11-17.1,  11-18,  11-18.1,  11-19,   11-19.1,
19    11-19.2,  11-20.1,  11-21,  12-13,  12-14, 12-14.1, 12-15, or
20    12-16 of the Criminal Code of  1961,  any  violation  of  the
21    Illinois  Controlled  Substances Act, or any violation of the
22    Cannabis Control Act results in conviction, a disposition  of
23    court  supervision,  or  an  order of probation granted under
24    Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act or Section 410 of  the
25    Illinois  Controlled  Substance Act of a defendant, the court
26    shall determine  whether  the  defendant  is  employed  by  a
27    facility  or  center  as  defined under the Child Care Act of
28    1969, a public or private elementary or secondary school,  or
29    otherwise  works  with  children  under  18 years of age on a
30    daily basis.  When a defendant  is  so  employed,  the  court
31    shall  order  the  Clerk  of  the Court to send a copy of the
32    judgment of conviction or order of supervision  or  probation
33    to  the  defendant's  employer  by  certified  mail.  If  the
34    employer of the defendant is a school, the Clerk of the Court
 
                            -731-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    shall  direct  the  mailing  of  a  copy  of  the judgment of
 2    conviction or  order  of  supervision  or  probation  to  the
 3    appropriate regional superintendent of schools.  The regional
 4    superintendent  of  schools  shall  notify the State Board of
 5    Education of any notification under this subsection.
 6        (j-5)  A defendant at  least  17  years  of  age  who  is
 7    convicted  of  a  felony  and  who  has  not  been previously
 8    convicted of a misdemeanor or felony and who is sentenced  to
 9    a   term  of  imprisonment  in  the  Illinois  Department  of
10    Corrections shall as a condition of his or  her  sentence  be
11    required  by the court to attend educational courses designed
12    to prepare the defendant for a high  school  diploma  and  to
13    work  toward  a high school diploma or to work toward passing
14    the high school level Test of General Educational Development
15    (GED) or to work  toward  completing  a  vocational  training
16    program  offered  by  the  Department  of  Corrections.  If a
17    defendant fails to complete the educational training required
18    by his or her sentence during the term of incarceration,  the
19    Prisoner  Review  Board  shall,  as  a condition of mandatory
20    supervised release, require the defendant, at his or her  own
21    expense,  to  pursue  a  course of study toward a high school
22    diploma or passage of the  GED  test.   The  Prisoner  Review
23    Board  shall  revoke  the  mandatory  supervised release of a
24    defendant who wilfully fails to comply with  this  subsection
25    (j-5)  upon  his  or  her release from confinement in a penal
26    institution while  serving  a  mandatory  supervised  release
27    term;  however, the inability of the defendant after making a
28    good faith effort to obtain financial  aid  or  pay  for  the
29    educational  training shall not be deemed a wilful failure to
30    comply.   The  Prisoner  Review  Board  shall  recommit   the
31    defendant  whose  mandatory  supervised release term has been
32    revoked under this subsection (j-5) as  provided  in  Section
33    3-3-9.   This  subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant
34    who has a high school diploma or has successfully passed  the
 
                            -732-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    GED test. This subsection (j-5) does not apply to a defendant
 2    who is determined by the court to be developmentally disabled
 3    or otherwise mentally incapable of completing the educational
 4    or vocational program.
 5        (k)  A court may not impose a sentence or disposition for
 6    a  felony  or  misdemeanor  that requires the defendant to be
 7    implanted or injected with  or  to  use  any  form  of  birth
 8    control.
 9        (l) (A)  Except   as   provided   in   paragraph  (C)  of
10        subsection (l), whenever a defendant, who is an alien  as
11        defined  by  the  Immigration  and  Nationality  Act,  is
12        convicted of any felony or misdemeanor offense, the court
13        after  sentencing  the  defendant may, upon motion of the
14        State's Attorney, hold sentence in  abeyance  and  remand
15        the  defendant  to the custody of the Attorney General of
16        the United States or his or her designated  agent  to  be
17        deported when:
18                  (1)  a  final  order  of  deportation  has been
19             issued against the defendant pursuant to proceedings
20             under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
21                  (2)  the deportation of the defendant would not
22             deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct
23             and would not  be  inconsistent  with  the  ends  of
24             justice.
25             Otherwise,  the  defendant  shall  be  sentenced  as
26        provided in this Chapter V.
27             (B)  If the defendant has already been sentenced for
28        a  felony  or  misdemeanor offense, or has been placed on
29        probation under Section 10 of the Cannabis Control Act or
30        Section 410 of the Illinois  Controlled  Substances  Act,
31        the  court  may,  upon  motion of the State's Attorney to
32        suspend the sentence imposed, commit the defendant to the
33        custody of the Attorney General of the United  States  or
34        his or her designated agent when:
 
                            -733-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1                  (1)  a  final  order  of  deportation  has been
 2             issued against the defendant pursuant to proceedings
 3             under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and
 4                  (2)  the deportation of the defendant would not
 5             deprecate the seriousness of the defendant's conduct
 6             and would not  be  inconsistent  with  the  ends  of
 7             justice.
 8             (C)  This subsection (l) does not apply to offenders
 9        who  are  subject  to  the provisions of paragraph (2) of
10        subsection (a) of Section 3-6-3.
11             (D)  Upon motion  of  the  State's  Attorney,  if  a

13        by   the   court  is  not  possible,  without  the  prior
14        notification  and  approval  of  the  person's  probation
15        officer;
16             (5)  permit the probation officer to  visit  him  at

21        if community service is available in the jurisdiction and
22        is  funded  and  approved  by  the county board where the
23        offense was committed, where the offense was  related  to
24        or  in  furtherance  of  the  criminal  activities  of an
25        organized  gang  and  was  motivated  by  the  offender's
26        membership in or allegiance to an  organized  gang.   The
27        community  service  shall include, but not be limited to,
28        the  cleanup  and  repair  of  any  damage  caused  by  a

32        When  possible  and  reasonable,  the  community  service
33        should  be performed in the offender's neighborhood.  For
34        purposes  of  this  Section,  "organized  gang"  has  the

16        educational  or  vocational  training  required  by  this
17        clause  (7).   The  court  shall  revoke the probation or
18        conditional discharge of a person who wilfully  fails  to
19        comply  with this clause (7).  The person on probation or
20        conditional discharge shall be required to  pay  for  the
21        cost  of the educational courses or GED test, if a fee is
22        charged for those  courses  or  test.   The  court  shall
23        resentence  the  offender  whose probation or conditional

30        educational or vocational program;
31             (8)  if  convicted  of  possession  of  a  substance
32        prohibited  by  the  Cannabis  Control  Act  or  Illinois
33        Controlled Substances Act after a previous conviction  or
34        disposition  of supervision for possession of a substance

 3             after  determining  the inability of the offender to
 4             pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser fee  or  no
 5             fee as the case may be. This fee shall be imposed in

15             are  placed  on  an  approved monitoring device as a

18             the  use of the device, as established by the county
19             board in subsection  (g)  of  this  Section,  unless
20             after  determining the inability of the defendant to
21             pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser fee  or  no
22             fee  as  the case may be.  This fee shall be imposed

25        defendant was placed on conditional discharge;
26             (15)  refrain from having any contact,  directly  or

 5    substance   violation,  refrain  from  acquiring  a  driver's
 6    license  during  the  period  of  probation  or   conditional
 7    discharge.   If  such  person is in possession of a permit or
 8    license, the court may require that the  minor  refrain  from
 9    driving  or  operating any motor vehicle during the period of
10    probation  or  conditional  discharge,  except  as   may   be
11    necessary in the course of the minor's lawful employment.
12        (d)  An offender sentenced to probation or to conditional
13    discharge  shall  be  given  a  certificate setting forth the
14    conditions thereof.
15        (e)  Except where the offender has committed a fourth  or

18    condition   of  the  sentence  of  probation  or  conditional
19    discharge that the offender  be  committed  to  a  period  of
20    imprisonment  in excess of 6 months. This 6 month limit shall
21    not include  periods  of  confinement  given  pursuant  to  a
22    sentence   of   county  impact  incarceration  under  Section
23    5-8-1.2. This 6 month  limit  does  not  apply  to  a  person
24    sentenced  to  probation  as  a  result  of a conviction of a
25    fourth or subsequent violation of subsection (c-4) of Section

29    probation  or conditional discharge shall not be committed to
30    the Department of Corrections.
31        (f)  The  court  may  combine  a  sentence  of   periodic
32    imprisonment under Article 7 or a sentence to a county impact
33    incarceration  program  under  Article  8  with a sentence of
34    probation or conditional discharge.

 5    be ordered to pay all costs incidental to such mandatory drug
 6    or alcohol testing, or both, and all costs incidental to such
 7    approved   electronic   monitoring  in  accordance  with  the
 8    defendant's ability to pay those  costs.   The  county  board
 9    with  the  concurrence  of  the  Chief  Judge of the judicial
10    circuit in  which  the  county  is  located  shall  establish
11    reasonable  fees  for  the  cost of maintenance, testing, and
12    incidental expenses related to the mandatory drug or  alcohol
13    testing,  or  both,  and  all  costs  incidental  to approved
14    electronic monitoring, involved  in  a  successful  probation

16    shall be in the form of an  administrative  order.  The  fees
17    shall  be  collected  by the clerk of the circuit court.  The
18    clerk of the circuit court shall  pay  all  moneys  collected

22    shall  deposit  the fees collected in the county working cash
23    fund under Section 6-27001 or Section 6-29002 of the Counties
24    Code, as the case may be.
25        (h)  Jurisdiction over an  offender  may  be  transferred
26    from  the  sentencing  court  to the court of another circuit
27    with the concurrence of both  courts,  or  to  another  state
28    under   an   Interstate  Probation  Reciprocal  Agreement  as
29    provided in Section 3-3-11.  Further transfers or retransfers
30    of jurisdiction are also authorized in the same manner.   The
31    court  to  which jurisdiction has been transferred shall have
32    the same powers as the sentencing court.

 4    court,  unless  after determining the inability of the person
 5    sentenced to probation or conditional discharge  to  pay  the
 6    fee,  the  court  assesses  a  lesser  fee. The court may not
 7    impose the fee on a minor who is made a  ward  of  the  State

28        Sec. 5-6-3.1.  Incidents and Conditions of Supervision.
29        (a)  When a defendant is placed on supervision, the court
30    shall enter an order for supervision specifying the period of
31    such supervision, and shall defer further proceedings in  the
32    case until the conclusion of the period.
33        (b)  The  period of supervision shall be reasonable under
 
                            -743-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    all of the circumstances of the case, but may not  be  longer
 2    than  2  years,  unless  the  defendant has failed to pay the
 3    assessment required by Section 10.3 of the  Cannabis  Control
 4    Act  or  Section  411.2 of the Illinois Controlled Substances
 5    Act, in which case the court may extend supervision beyond  2
 6    years.  Additionally,  the court shall order the defendant to
 7    perform no less than 30 hours of community  service  and  not
 8    more  than  120  hours  of  community  service,  if community
 9    service is available in the jurisdiction and  is  funded  and
10    approved by the county board where the offense was committed,
11    when  the offense (1) was related to or in furtherance of the
12    criminal activities of an organized gang or was motivated  by
13    the  defendant's  membership in or allegiance to an organized
14    gang; or (2) is a violation of any Section of Article  24  of
15    the  Criminal Code of 1961 where a disposition of supervision
16    is not prohibited  by  Section  5-6-1  of  this  Code.    The
17    community  service  shall include, but not be limited to, the
18    cleanup and repair of  any  damage  caused  by  violation  of
19    Section  21-1.3  of  the  Criminal  Code  of 1961 and similar
20    damages to property located within the municipality or county
21    in  which  the  violation  occurred.   Where   possible   and
22    reasonable,  the community service should be performed in the
23    offender's neighborhood.
24        For the purposes of this Section,  "organized  gang"  has
25    the  meaning  ascribed  to  it  in Section 10 of the Illinois
26    Streetgang Terrorism Omnibus Prevention Act.
27        (c)  The  court  may  in  addition  to  other  reasonable
28    conditions relating to the  nature  of  the  offense  or  the
29    rehabilitation  of  the  defendant  as  determined  for  each
30    defendant  in the proper discretion of the court require that

24             for a crime of violence as defined in Section  2  of
25             the  Crime  Victims  Compensation Act committed in a
26             school, on the real property comprising a school, or

 5        protection  issued  by the court of another state, tribe,

 7        defendant  to  make  a  report and appear in person under
 8        paragraph (1) of this subsection, a copy of the order  of
 9        protection  shall  be transmitted to the person or agency
10        so designated by the court;
11             (12)  reimburse any "local  anti-crime  program"  as
12        defined  in  Section 7 of the Anti-Crime Advisory Council
13        Act for any reasonable expenses incurred by  the  program

22             (14)  refrain   from   entering  into  a  designated

26        accompanying  the  defendant,  and  advance approval by a
27        probation officer;
28             (15)  refrain from having any contact,  directly  or

 5        equipped  with an ignition interlock device as defined in
 6        Section 1-129.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code.  Under this

13    charges until the conclusion of the supervision.
14        (e)  At  the  conclusion of the period of supervision, if

16    complied with all of the conditions of supervision, the court

18    the charges.
19        (f)  Discharge and dismissal upon a successful conclusion
20    of  a  disposition  of  supervision  shall  be deemed without
21    adjudication of guilt and shall not be  termed  a  conviction
22    for  purposes  of disqualification or disabilities imposed by
23    law  upon  conviction  of  a  crime.   Two  years  after  the
24    discharge  and  dismissal  under  this  Section,  unless  the
25    disposition of supervision was for a  violation  of  Sections
26    3-707,  3-708,  3-710,  5-401.3,  or  11-503  of the Illinois

28    for  a  violation of Sections 12-3.2 or 16A-3 of the Criminal
29    Code of 1961, in  which  case  it  shall  be  5  years  after
30    discharge  and  dismissal,  a  person  may have his record of
31    arrest  sealed  or  expunged  as  may  be  provided  by  law.

 3    subsection  (g)  of  Section 5 of the Criminal Identification
 4    Act or for a violation of  Section  11-501  of  the  Illinois
 5    Vehicle  Code  or  a  similar  provision of a local ordinance
 6    shall not  have  his  or  her  record  of  arrest  sealed  or
 7    expunged.
 8        (g)  A defendant placed on supervision and who during the
 9    period  of  supervision  undergoes  mandatory drug or alcohol
10    testing, or both, or is assigned to be placed on an  approved

12    costs incidental to such mandatory drug or  alcohol  testing,
13    or  both,  and  costs  incidental to such approved electronic
14    monitoring in accordance with the defendant's ability to  pay
15    those  costs.  The  county  board with the concurrence of the
16    Chief Judge of the judicial circuit in which  the  county  is
17    located  shall  establish  reasonable  fees  for  the cost of
18    maintenance, testing, and incidental expenses related to  the
19    mandatory  drug  or  alcohol  testing, or both, and all costs

21    defendants  placed  on  supervision.  The  concurrence of the
22    Chief Judge shall be in the form of an administrative  order.
23    The  fees  shall  be  collected  by  the clerk of the circuit
24    court.  The clerk of the circuit court shall pay  all  moneys
25    collected  from  these fees to the county treasurer who shall
26    use the moneys collected to defray the costs of drug testing,
27    alcohol  testing,  and  electronic  monitoring.  The   county
28    treasurer  shall  deposit  the  fees  collected in the county
29    working cash fund under Section 6-27001 or Section 6-29002 of
30    the Counties Code, as the case may be.
31        (h)  A disposition of supervision is a  final  order  for
32    the purposes of appeal.
33        (i)  The  court  shall  impose upon a defendant placed on
34    supervision  after  January  1,  1992,  as  a  condition   of

 1    supervision,  a  fee  of  $25  for  each month of supervision
 2    ordered by the court, unless after determining the  inability
 3    of the person placed on supervision to pay the fee, the court
 4    assesses  a lesser fee. The court may not impose the fee on a
 5    minor who is made a ward of  the  State  under  the  Juvenile
 6    Court  Act  of  1987 while the minor is in placement. The fee
 7    shall be imposed  only  upon  a  defendant  who  is  actively

18    similar provision of a local ordinance,  shall  be  collected
19    and  disbursed by the circuit clerk as provided under Section

 4    this   subsection   (k).   The  court  shall  resentence  the
 5    defendant upon  revocation  of  supervision  as  provided  in
 6    Section  5-6-4.   This  subsection  (k)  does  not apply to a
 7    defendant who has a high school diploma or  has  successfully
 8    passed  the GED test. This subsection (k) does not apply to a
 9    defendant  who   is   determined   by   the   court   to   be

 8    the  application for rehearing or administrative review to be
 9    filed at any  time  before  judgment  by  the  administrative
10    agency against the applicant or within a specified time after
11    the  entry  of  such  judgment),  and an application for such
12    rehearing or review is made, no  administrative  decision  of
13    such  agency shall be final as to the party applying therefor
14    until such rehearing or review is had or denied.  However, if
15    the particular statute permits an application  for  rehearing
16    or other method of administrative review to be filed with the
17    administrative  agency for an indefinite period of time after
18    the  administrative  decision  has  been  rendered  (such  as
19    permitting such application to be filed at  any  time  before
20    judgment  by  the administrative agency against the applicant
21    or within a specified time after the entry of such judgment),
22    then the authorization for the filing of such application for
23    rehearing or review shall not  postpone  the  time  when  the
24    administrative decision as to which such application shall be
25    filed  would  otherwise  become  final, but the filing of the
26    application for rehearing or review with  the  administrative
27    agency in this type of case shall constitute the commencement
28    of  a  new  proceeding  before  such agency, and the decision
29    rendered in order to  dispose  of  such  rehearing  or  other
30    review  proceeding  shall  constitute  a  new and independent
31    administrative  decision.   If  such  new   and   independent
32    decision consists merely of the denial of the application for
33    rehearing  or  other  method  of  administrative  review, the
34    record upon judicial review of such decision shall be limited
 
                            -752-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    to the application for rehearing  or  other  review  and  the
 2    order  or  decision  denying  such  application and shall not
 3    include the record of proceedings had before the rendering of
 4    the administrative decision as to which the  application  for
 5    rehearing  or  other  administrative  review  shall have been
 6    filed unless the suit for judicial review is commenced within
 7    the time in which it would be authorized by this Act to  have
 8    been  commenced  if  no  application  for  rehearing or other
 9    method of administrative review had been filed.  On the other
10    hand, if the rehearing  or  other  administrative  review  is
11    granted  by  the  administrative  agency,  then the record on
12    judicial review  of  the  resulting  administrative  decision
13    rendered  pursuant  to  the rehearing or other administrative
14    review may consist not only of the record of proceedings  had
15    before  the  administrative agency in such rehearing or other
16    administrative review proceeding, but also of the  record  of
17    proceedings  had  before  such administrative agency prior to
18    its rendering of the administrative decision as to which  the
19    rehearing  or  other  administrative  review  shall have been
20    granted.  The term "administrative  decision"  or  "decision"
21    does  not  mean  or include rules, regulations, standards, or
22    statements of policy of  general  application  issued  by  an
23    administrative   agency  to  implement,  interpret,  or  make
24    specific the  legislation  enforced  or  administered  by  it
25    unless  such  a  rule,  regulation,  standard or statement of
26    policy is involved in a proceeding before the agency and  its
27    applicability or validity is in issue in such proceeding, nor
28    does  it  mean or include regulations concerning the internal
29    management of the agency  not  affecting  private  rights  or
30    interests.

19    reasonable funeral, medical  and  hospital  expenses  of  the
20    victim  to  the  extent to which he or she has paid or become
21    obligated to pay such expenses and  only  after  compensation
22    for  reasonable funeral, medical and hospital expenses of the

24    reasonable expenses of the victim incurred for  psychological
25    treatment  of  a  mental  or  emotional  condition  caused or
26    aggravated by the crime.;
27        (d)  An award shall be reduced or denied according to the
28    extent to which the victim's  acts  or  conduct  provoked  or
29    contributed  to  his or her injury or death, or the extent to
30    which any prior criminal conviction or conduct of the  victim
31    may  have directly or indirectly contributed to the injury or
32    death of the victim.;

 1        (e)  An award shall be reduced by the amount of benefits,
 2    payments or awards payable  under  those  sources  which  are
 3    required  to  be  listed under item (7) of Section 7.1(a) and
 4    any other sources except annuities,  pension  plans,  Federal
 5    Social  Security payments payable to dependents of the victim
 6    and the net proceeds of the first $25,000 of  life  insurance
 7    that  would  inure to the benefit of the applicant, which the
 8    applicant or any other person dependent for the support of  a
 9    deceased victim, as the case may be, has received or to which
10    he  or  she  is entitled as a result of injury to or death of
11    the victim.
12        (f)  A final award shall not exceed $10,000 for  a  crime
13    committed  prior  to  September 22, 1979, $15,000 for a crime

18    or after August 7, the effective date of this amendatory  Act
19    of  1998.   If  the  total pecuniary loss is greater than the
20    maximum  amount  allowed,  the  award  shall  be  divided  in
21    proportion to the amount of actual loss among those  entitled

 1        Section 86.  The Whistleblower Reward and Protection  Act
 2    is amended by changing Section 6 as follows:

 3        (740 ILCS 175/6) (from Ch. 127, par. 4106)
 4        Sec. 6.  Civil investigative demands.
 5        (a)  In general.
 6             (1)  Issuance  and  service.   Whenever the Attorney
 7        General has reason to believe that any person may  be  in
 8        possession,   custody,  or  control  of  any  documentary
 9        material or information relevant to an investigation, the
10        Attorney  General  may,   before   commencing   a   civil
11        proceeding  under this Act, issue in writing and cause to
12        be served upon such person, a civil investigative  demand
13        requiring such person:
14                  (A)  to  produce  such documentary material for
15             inspection and copying,
16                  (B)  to    answer,    in    writing,    written
17             interrogatories with  respect  to  such  documentary
18             material or information,
19                  (C)  to  give  oral  testimony  concerning such
20             documentary material or information, or

23    The  Attorney  General  shall delegate the authority to issue
24    civil investigative demands under this subsection (a) to  the
25    Department  of  State Police.  Whenever a civil investigative
26    demand is an express demand for any product of discovery, the
27    Attorney  General,  an  Assistant  Attorney  General  or  the
28    delegate of the Department of State Police shall cause to  be
29    served,  in  any manner authorized by this Section, a copy of
30    such demand upon the  person  from  whom  the  discovery  was
31    obtained  and  shall notify the person to whom such demand is
32    issued of the date on which such copy was served.
33             (2)  Contents and deadlines.

 9                  material to be produced with such  definiteness
10                  and  certainty as to permit such material to be
11                  fairly identified;
12                       (ii)  prescribe a  return  date  for  each
13                  such  class  which  will  provide  a reasonable

15                  demanded  may  be  assembled and made available
16                  for inspection and copying; and
17                       (iii)  identify the investigator  to  whom
18                  such material shall be made available.

20             interrogatories, the demand shall:
21                       (i)  set  forth   with   specificity   the
22                  written interrogatories to be answered;

24                  answers to  written  interrogatories  shall  be
25                  submitted; and
26                       (iii)  identify  the  investigator to whom
27                  such answers shall be submitted.
28                  (D)  If such demand is for the giving  of  oral

31                  which oral testimony shall be commenced;

 2                       (iii)  specify  that  such  attendance and
 3                  testimony are necessary to the conduct  of  the
 4                  investigation;
 5                       (iv)  notify   the  person  receiving  the
 6                  demand of the right to  be  accompanied  by  an
 7                  attorney and any other representative; and
 8                       (v)  describe   the  general  purpose  for
 9                  which  the  demand  is  being  issued  and  the
10                  general nature of the testimony, including  the
11                  primary  areas  of inquiry, which will be taken
12                  pursuant to the demand.
13                  (E)  Any  civil  investigative  demand   issued
14             under  this  Section  which is an express demand for
15             any product of discovery shall not  be  returned  or
16             returnable until 20 days after a copy of such demand
17             has  been  served  upon  the  person  from  whom the
18             discovery was obtained.
19                  (F)  The date prescribed for  the  commencement
20             of  oral testimony pursuant to a civil investigative
21             demand issued under this Section  shall  be  a  date
22             which  is  not  less  than  7 days after the date on
23             which  demand  is  received,  unless  the   Attorney
24             General  or an Assistant Attorney General designated
25             by the Attorney  General  or  the  delegate  of  the
26             Department   of   State   Police   determines   that
27             exceptional  circumstances are present which warrant
28             the commencement of such testimony within  a  lesser
29             period of time.
30                  (G)  The  Attorney  General  or the delegate of
31             the Department of State Police shall  not  authorize
32             the  issuance  under  this  Section of more than one
33             civil investigative demand for oral testimony by the
34             same person unless the person requests otherwise  or
 
                            -758-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             unless  the  Attorney General or the delegate of the
 2             Department of  State  Police,  after  investigation,
 3             notifies  that  person in writing that an additional
 4             demand  for  oral  testimony  is   necessary.    The
 5             Attorney  General shall authorize the performance by
 6             the delegate of the Department of  State  Police  of
 7             any  function  vested  in the Attorney General under
 8             this subparagraph (G).
 9        (b)  Protected material or information.
10             (1)  In  general.   A  civil  investigative   demand
11        issued   under   subsection   (a)  may  not  require  the
12        production of any documentary material, the submission of
13        any  answers to written interrogatories, or the giving of
14        any  oral  testimony  if  such  material,   answers,   or
15        testimony would be protected from disclosure under:
16                  (A)  the  standards  applicable to subpoenas or
17             subpoenas duces tecum issued  by  a  court  of  this
18             State to aid in a grand jury investigation; or
19                  (B)  the   standards  applicable  to  discovery
20             requests under the Code of Civil Procedure,  to  the
21             extent that the application of such standards to any
22             such  demand  is appropriate and consistent with the
23             provisions and purposes of this Section.
24             (2)  Effect on other orders, rules, and  laws.   Any
25        such demand which is an express demand for any product of
26        discovery  supersedes  any  inconsistent  order, rule, or
27        provision of law (other than this Section) preventing  or
28        restraining  disclosure  of  such product of discovery to
29        any person.   Disclosure  of  any  product  of  discovery
30        pursuant to any such express demand does not constitute a
31        waiver  of any right or privilege which the person making
32        make such disclosure may be entitled to invoke to  resist
33        discovery of trial preparation materials.
34        (c)  Service; jurisdiction.

 1             (1)  By  whom served. Any civil investigative demand
 2        issued  under  subsection  (a)  may  be  served   by   an
 3        investigator,  or  by  any  person  authorized  to  serve
 4        process on individuals within Illinois.
 5             (2)  Service  in  foreign countries. Any such demand
 6        or any petition filed under subsection (j) may be  served
 7        upon  any person who is not found within Illinois in such
 8        manner as the Code  of  Civil  Procedure  prescribes  for
 9        service  of  process outside Illinois. To the extent that
10        the courts of this State can assert jurisdiction over any
11        such  person consistent with due process, the  courts  of
12        this  State  shall have the same jurisdiction to take any
13        action respecting compliance with  this  Section  by  any
14        such  person  that  such  court would have if such person
15        were personally within the jurisdiction of such court.
16        (d)  Service upon legal entities and natural persons. (1)
17    Legal entities. Service of  any  civil  investigative  demand
18    issued  under  subsection  (a) or of any petition filed under
19    subsection (j) may be made upon a  partnership,  corporation,
20    association, or other legal entity by:
21                  (A)  delivering an executed copy of such demand

23             managing  agent,  general agent, or registered agent

27             or petition to the  principal  office  or  place  of
28             business    of    the    partnership,   corporation,
29             association, or entity; or
30                  (C)  depositing an executed copy of such demand
31             or petition in the United States mails by registered
32             or certified mail, with a return receipt  requested,

 5        affirmations by the laws of this State or  of  the  place

11        The testimony shall be taken stenographically  and  shall
12        be transcribed.  When the testimony is fully transcribed,
13        the  officer  before  whom  the  testimony is taken shall
14        promptly  transmit  a  copy  of  the  transcript  of  the
15        testimony to the custodian.  This  subsection  shall  not
16        preclude  the taking of testimony by any means authorized
17        by, and in a manner consistent with, the  Code  of  Civil
18        Procedure.
19             (2)  Persons  present.   The investigator conducting
20        the examination shall exclude from the  place  where  the
21        examination  is held all persons except the person giving

32        business, or in such other place as may be agreed upon by
33        the investigator  conducting  the  examination  and  such
34        person.

 1             (4)  Transcript of testimony.  When the testimony is
 2        fully transcribed, the investigator or the officer before
 3        whom the testimony is taken shall afford the witness, who
 4        may  be  accompanied by counsel, a reasonable opportunity
 5        to  examine  and  read  the   transcript,   unless   such
 6        examination  and  reading are waived by the witness.  Any
 7        changes in form or substance which the witness desires to
 8        make shall be entered and identified upon the  transcript
 9        by  the  officer or the investigator, with a statement of
10        the reasons given by the witness for making such changes.
11        The transcript shall  then  be  signed  by  the  witness,
12        unless the witness in writing waives the signing, is ill,
13        cannot  be  found, or refuses to sign.  If the transcript
14        is not signed by the witness within 30 days  after  being
15        afforded  a  reasonable  opportunity  to  examine it, the
16        officer of investigator shall sign it and  state  on  the
17        record  the  fact  of the waiver, illness, absence of the
18        witness, or  the  refusal  to  sign,  together  with  the
19        reasons, if any, given therefor.
20             (5)  Certification  and  delivery to custodian.  The

22        on  the  transcript  that  the  witness  was sworn by the
23        officer and that the transcript is a true record  of  the
24        testimony  given  by  the  witness,  and  the  officer or
25        investigator shall promptly deliver  the  transcript,  or
26        send  the  transcript by registered or certified mail, to
27        the custodian.
28             (6)  Furnishing  or  inspection  of  transcript   by
29        witness. Upon payment of reasonable charges therefor, the
30        investigator  shall  furnish  a copy of the transcript to
31        the witness only, except that the  Attorney  General,  an
32        Assistant  Attorney General or employee of the Department
33        of State Police may, for good cause, limit  such  witness
34        to  inspection of the official transcript of the witness'

 5             under   subsection   (a)   may    be    accompanied,
 6             represented,  and  advised  by  counsel. Counsel may
 7             advise such person, in confidence, with  respect  to
 8             any  question  asked  of such person. Such person or
 9             counsel may object on the record to any question, in
10             whole or in part, and shall briefly  state  for  the
11             record  the  reason  for the objection. An objection
12             may be made, received, and entered upon  the  record
13             when  it  is claimed that such person is entitled to
14             refuse to answer the question on the grounds of  any
15             constitutional  or  other  legal right or privilege,
16             including the privilege against  self-incrimination.
17             If  such  person  refuses  to answer any question, a
18             petition  may  be  filed  in  circuit  court   under
19             subsection  (j)(1)  for  an  order  compelling  such
20             person to answer such question.
21                  (B)  If such person refuses any question on the

23             the  testimony  of  such  person may be compelled in
24             accordance with Article 106 of the Code of  Criminal
25             Procedure of 1963.
26             (8)  Witness   fees   and   allowances.  Any  person
27        appearing for oral testimony under a civil  investigative

 6        necessary to serve as deputies to the custodian.
 7             (2)  Responsibility for materials; disclosure.
 8                  (A)  An   investigator   who    receives    any
 9             documentary material, answers to interrogatories, or
10             transcripts  of  oral  testimony  under this Section
11             shall transmit them to the custodian. The  custodian

14             the  use  made  of  them  and  for  the  return   of

 7             of any product of discovery produced pursuant to  an
 8             express  demand  for such material, consent is given
 9             by the person from whom the discovery was  obtained.
10             Nothing  in this subparagraph is intended to prevent
11             disclosure to the General  Assembly,  including  any
12             committee  or  subcommittee of the General Assembly,
13             or to any other State agency for use by such  agency

28             with  any  civil  investigative  demand issued under
29             subsection (a), or whenever satisfactory copying  or
30             reproduction  of  any  material  requested  in  such
31             demand  cannot  be  done  and such person refuses to
32             surrender such material, the  Attorney  General  may
33             file,  in  the  circuit court of any county in which
34             such  person  resides,  is   found,   or   transacts
 
                            -769-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             business,  and serve upon such person a petition for
 2             an order of such court for the  enforcement  of  the
 3             civil investigative demand.
 4             (2)  Petition to modify or set aside demand. (A) Any
 5        person  who  has  received  a  civil investigative demand
 6        issued under subsection (a)  may  file,  in  the  circuit
 7        court  of any county within which such person resides, is
 8        found,  or  transacts  business,  and  serve   upon   the
 9        investigator  identified in such demand a petition for an
10        order of the court to modify or set aside such demand. In
11        the case of a petition addressed to an express demand for
12        any product of discovery, a petition  to  modify  or  set
13        aside  such  demand  may  be  brought only in the circuit
14        court of the county in which the proceeding in which such
15        discovery was  obtained  is  or  was  last  pending.  Any
16        petition under this subparagraph (A) must be filed:
17                       (i)  within  20  days  after  the  date of
18                  service of the civil investigative  demand,  or
19                  at any time before the return date specified in
20                  the demand, whichever date is earlier, or
21                       (ii)  within  such longer period as may be
22                  prescribed  in  writing  by  any   investigator
23                  identified in the demand.
24                  (B)  The  petition  shall  specify  each ground
25             upon which the petitioner relies in  seeking  relief
26             under  subparagraph  (A),  and may be based upon any
27             failure of the demand to comply with the  provisions
28             of  this Section or upon any constitutional or other
29             legal right or privilege of such person. During  the
30             pendency of the petition in the court, the court may
31             stay,  as  it  deems proper, the running of the time
32             allowed for compliance with the demand, in whole  or
33             in  part, except that the person filing the petition
34             shall comply with any  portion  of  the  demand  not

 1             sought to be modified or set aside.
 2             (3)  Petition  to  modify  or  set  aside demand for
 3        product of discovery.  (A)  In  the  case  of  any  civil
 4        investigative demand issued under subsection (a) which is
 5        an  express  demand  for  any  product  of discovery, the
 6        person from whom such discovery was obtained may file, in
 7        the circuit court of the county in which  the  proceeding
 8        in  which  such  discovery  was  obtained  is or was last
 9        pending, and serve upon any  investigator  identified  in
10        the  demand  and  upon  the  recipient  of  the demand, a
11        petition for an order of such  court  to  modify  or  set
12        aside  those  portions of the demand requiring production
13        of any such product of discovery. Any petition under this
14        subparagraph (A) must be filed:
15                       (i)  within 20  days  after  the  date  of
16                  service  of  the civil investigative demand, or
17                  at any time before the return date specified in
18                  the demand, whichever date is earlier, or
19                       (ii)  within such longer period as may  be
20                  prescribed   in  writing  by  any  investigator
21                  identified in the demand.
22                  (B)  The petition  shall  specify  each  ground
23             upon  which  the petitioner relies in seeking relief
24             under subparagraph (A), and may be  based  upon  any
25             failure  of  the  portions  of the demand from which
26             relief is sought to comply with  the  provisions  of
27             this  Section,  or  upon any constitutional or other
28             legal right or privilege of the  petitioner.  During
29             the pendency of the petition, the court may stay, as
30             it  deems proper, compliance with the demand and the
31             running of the time allowed from compliance with the
32             demand.
33             (4)  Petition to require performance by custodian of
34        duties. At any time during  which  any  custodian  is  in
 
                            -771-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        custody or control of any documentary material or answers
 2        to  interrogatories  produced,  or  transcripts  of  oral
 3        testimony  given,  by  any  person in compliance with any
 4        civil investigative demand issued under  subsection  (a),
 5        such person, and in the case of an express demand for any
 6        product of discovery, the person from whom such discovery
 7        was  obtained,  may  file,  in  the  circuit court of the
 8        county within which  the  office  of  such  custodian  is
 9        situated,  and  serve upon such custodian, a petition for
10        an order of such court to require the performance by  the
11        custodian  of any duty imposed upon the custodian by this
12        Section.
13             (5)  Jurisdiction. Whenever any petition is filed in
14        any circuit court under this subsection (j),  such  court
15        shall  have jurisdiction to hear and determine the matter
16        so presented, and to enter such orders as may be required
17        to carry out the provisions of this  Section.  Any  final
18        order  so  entered shall be subject to appeal in the same
19        manner as appeals of other final orders in civil matters.
20        Any disobedience of any final order  entered  under  this
21        Section  by  any court shall be punished as a contempt of
22        the court.
23        (k)  Disclosure  exemption.  Any  documentary   material,
24    answers   to   written  interrogatories,  or  oral  testimony
25    provided under any civil investigative  demand  issued  under
26    subsection  (a)  shall  be  exempt  from disclosure under the
27    Illinois Administrative Procedure Act.

29        Section 87.  The Illinois  Marriage  and  Dissolution  of
30    Marriage  Act is amended by changing Sections 505, 505.3, and
31    510 as follows:

32        (750 ILCS 5/505) (from Ch. 40, par. 505)
 
                            -772-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        Sec. 505.  Child support; contempt; penalties.
 2        (a)  In a proceeding for dissolution of  marriage,  legal
 3    separation,   declaration   of   invalidity  of  marriage,  a
 4    proceeding for child support  following  dissolution  of  the
 5    marriage  by  a court which lacked personal jurisdiction over
 6    the  absent  spouse,  a  proceeding  for  modification  of  a
 7    previous order for child support under Section  510  of  this
 8    Act, or any proceeding authorized under Section 501 or 601 of
 9    this  Act, the court may order either or both parents owing a
10    duty of support to a child of the marriage to pay  an  amount
11    reasonable  and  necessary for his support, without regard to
12    marital misconduct. The duty of  support   owed  to  a  minor
13    child  includes  the obligation to provide for the reasonable
14    and necessary physical, mental and emotional health needs  of
15    the child.
16             (1)  The Court shall determine the minimum amount of
17        support by using the following guidelines:
18          Number of Children       Percent of Supporting Party's
19                                             Net Income
20                  1                             20%
21                  2                             25%
22                  3                             32%
23                  4                             40%
24                  5                             45%
25              6 or more                         50%
26             (2)  The  above  guidelines shall be applied in each
27        case unless the court makes a finding that application of
28        the guidelines would be inappropriate, after  considering
29        the  best  interests  of  the  child in light of evidence
30        including but not limited to one or more of the following
31        relevant factors:
32                  (a)  the financial resources and needs  of  the
33             child;
34                  (b)  the  financial  resources and needs of the
 
                            -773-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             custodial parent;
 2                  (c)  the standard of  living  the  child  would
 3             have enjoyed had the marriage not been dissolved;
 4                  (d)  the  physical  and  emotional condition of
 5             the child, and his educational needs; and
 6                  (e)  the financial resources and needs  of  the
 7             non-custodial parent.
 8             If  the  court  deviates  from  the  guidelines, the
 9        court's finding shall state the amount  of  support  that
10        would   have  been  required  under  the  guidelines,  if
11        determinable.  The court  shall  include  the  reason  or
12        reasons for the variance from the guidelines.
13             (3)  "Net  income"  is  defined  as the total of all
14        income from all sources, minus the following deductions:
15                  (a)  Federal income  tax  (properly  calculated
16             withholding or estimated payments);
17                  (b)  State   income  tax  (properly  calculated
18             withholding or estimated payments);
19                  (c)  Social Security (FICA payments);
20                  (d)  Mandatory     retirement     contributions
21             required by law or as a condition of employment;
22                  (e)  Union dues;
23                  (f)  Dependent          and          individual
24             health/hospitalization insurance premiums;
25                  (g)  Prior   obligations    of    support    or
26             maintenance actually paid pursuant to a court order;
27                  (h)  Expenditures  for  repayment of debts that
28             represent reasonable and necessary expenses for  the
29             production of income, medical expenditures necessary
30             to  preserve life or health, reasonable expenditures
31             for the benefit of the child and the  other  parent,
32             exclusive  of  gifts.   The  court  shall reduce net
33             income in determining the minimum amount of  support
34             to be ordered only for the period that such payments
 
                            -774-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             are   due   and  shall  enter  an  order  containing
 2             provisions for its self-executing modification  upon
 3             termination of such payment period.
 4             (4)  In  cases  where  the  court order provides for
 5        health/hospitalization  insurance  coverage  pursuant  to
 6        Section  505.2  of  this  Act,  the  premiums  for   that
 7        insurance,  or that portion of the premiums for which the
 8        supporting party is responsible in the case of  insurance
 9        provided  through  an  employer's  health  insurance plan
10        where the employer pays a portion of the premiums,  shall
11        be  subtracted from net income in determining the minimum
12        amount of support to be ordered.
13             (4.5)  In a proceeding for child  support  following
14        dissolution  of  the  marriage  by  a  court  that lacked
15        personal jurisdiction over  the  absent  spouse,  and  in
16        which  the  court is requiring payment of support for the
17        period before the date an order for  current  support  is
18        entered,  there  is  a  rebuttable  presumption  that the
19        supporting party's net income for the  prior  period  was
20        the  same  as his or her net income at the time the order
21        for current support is entered.
22             (5)  If the net income cannot be determined  because
23        of  default  or  any  other reason, the court shall order
24        support  in  an  amount  considered  reasonable  in   the
25        particular  case.   The  final  order  in all cases shall
26        state the support level in dollar  amounts.  However,  if
27        the  court  finds that the child support amount cannot be
28        expressed exclusively as a dollar amount because all or a
29        portion of the payor's net  income  is  uncertain  as  to
30        source, time of payment, or amount, the court may order a
31        percentage  amount  of  support in addition to a specific
32        dollar amount and enter  such  other  orders  as  may  be
33        necessary  to  determine  and enforce, on a timely basis,
34        the applicable support ordered.

 1             (6)  If (i) the non-custodial  parent  was  properly
 2        served   with   a  request  for  discovery  of  financial
 3        information  relating  to  the   non-custodial   parent's
 4        ability  to provide child support, (ii) the non-custodial
 5        parent failed to comply with the request, despite  having
 6        been  ordered  to  do  so  by  the  court,  and (iii) the
 7        non-custodial parent is not present  at  the  hearing  to
 8        determine  support despite having received proper notice,
 9        then any relevant financial  information  concerning  the
10        non-custodial  parent's  ability to provide child support
11        that was obtained pursuant to subpoena and proper  notice
12        shall  be  admitted  into  evidence  without  the need to
13        establish any further foundation for its admission.
14        (a-5)  In an action to enforce an order for support based
15    on the respondent's  failure  to  make  support  payments  as
16    required  by  the  order,  notice  of proceedings to hold the
17    respondent in contempt for that failure may be served on  the
18    respondent  by  personal service or by regular mail addressed
19    to the respondent's last known address. The respondent's last
20    known address may be determined from records of the clerk  of
21    the  court,  from  the Federal Case Registry of Child Support
22    Orders, or by any other reasonable means.
23        (b)  Failure of either parent to comply with an order  to
24    pay  support  shall  be  punishable  as  in  other  cases  of
25    contempt.  In addition to other penalties provided by law the
26    Court may, after finding the parent guilty of contempt, order
27    that the parent be:
28             (1)  placed  on  probation  with  such conditions of
29        probation as the Court deems advisable;
30             (2)  sentenced to periodic imprisonment for a period
31        not to exceed 6 months; provided, however, that the Court
32        may permit the parent to be released for periods of  time
33        during the day or night to:
34                  (A)  work; or
 
                            -776-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1                  (B)  conduct  a business or other self-employed
 2             occupation.
 3        The Court may further  order  any  part  or  all  of  the
 4    earnings   of   a   parent  during  a  sentence  of  periodic
 5    imprisonment paid to the Clerk of the Circuit Court or to the
 6    parent having custody or to the guardian  having  custody  of
 7    the minor children of the sentenced parent for the support of
 8    said minor children until further order of the Court.
 9        If  there is a unity of interest and ownership sufficient
10    to render no financial  separation  between  a  non-custodial
11    parent  and another person or persons or business entity, the
12    court may pierce the ownership veil of the  person,  persons,
13    or  business  entity  to discover assets of the non-custodial
14    parent held in the name of that  person,  those  persons,  or
15    that  business  entity.    The  following  circumstances  are
16    sufficient  to  authorize  a  court to order discovery of the
17    assets of a person, persons, or business entity and to compel
18    the application of any discovered assets  toward  payment  on
19    the judgment for support:
20             (1)  the   non-custodial   parent  and  the  person,
21        persons, or business entity maintain records together.
22             (2)  the  non-custodial  parent  and   the   person,
23        persons,  or  business  entity  fail  to maintain an arms
24        length relationship between themselves with regard to any
25        assets.
26             (3)  the non-custodial parent  transfers  assets  to
27        the  person,  persons, or business entity with the intent
28        to perpetrate a fraud on the custodial parent.
29        With respect to assets which are real property, no  order
30    entered  under this paragraph shall affect the rights of bona
31    fide purchasers, mortgagees,  judgment  creditors,  or  other
32    lien  holders  who   acquire  their interests in the property
33    prior to the time a notice of lis  pendens  pursuant  to  the
34    Code  of  Civil Procedure or a copy of the order is placed of
 
                            -777-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    record in the office of the recorder of deeds for the  county
 2    in which the real property is located.
 3        The  court may also order in cases where the parent is 90
 4    days or more delinquent in payment of  support  or  has  been
 5    adjudicated  in  arrears  in  an  amount  equal  to  90  days
 6    obligation  or  more,  that  the  parent's  Illinois  driving
 7    privileges  be  suspended until the court determines that the
 8    parent is in compliance with the order of support. The  court
 9    may  also  order that the parent be issued a family financial
10    responsibility  driving  permit  that  would  allow   limited
11    driving  privileges  for  employment  and medical purposes in
12    accordance with Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code.
13    The clerk of  the  circuit  court  shall  certify  the  order
14    suspending  the  driving privileges of the parent or granting
15    the issuance of a  family  financial  responsibility  driving
16    permit  to  the Secretary of State on forms prescribed by the
17    Secretary. Upon receipt of the authenticated  documents,  the
18    Secretary   of  State  shall  suspend  the  parent's  driving
19    privileges until further order of the  court  and  shall,  if
20    ordered  by  the  court, subject to the provisions of Section
21    7-702.1  of  the  Illinois  Vehicle  Code,  issue  a   family
22    financial responsibility driving permit to the parent.
23        In  addition  to  the penalties or punishment that may be
24    imposed  under  this  Section,  any  person   whose   conduct
25    constitutes  a  violation  of  Section  15 of the Non-Support
26    Punishment Act may be prosecuted under that Act, and a person
27    convicted under that Act may be sentenced in accordance  with
28    that  Act.   The sentence may include but need not be limited
29    to a requirement that the person  perform  community  service
30    under  Section  50  of  that  Act  or  participate  in a work
31    alternative program under Section 50 of that Act.   A  person
32    may  not  be  required  to  participate in a work alternative
33    program under Section  50  of  that  Act  if  the  person  is
34    currently participating in a work program pursuant to Section
 
                            -778-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    505.1 of this Act.
 2        A  support  obligation,  or  any  portion  of  a  support
 3    obligation,  which becomes due and remains unpaid for 30 days
 4    or more shall accrue simple interest at the rate  of  9%  per
 5    annum.  An  order for support entered or modified on or after
 6    January 1, 2002 shall contain  a  statement  that  a  support
 7    obligation  required  under  the  order,  or any portion of a
 8    support obligation required under the order, that becomes due
 9    and remains unpaid for 30 days or more  shall  accrue  simple
10    interest at the rate of 9% per annum.  Failure to include the
11    statement  in  the  order  for  support  does  not affect the
12    validity of the order or the accrual of interest as  provided
13    in this Section.
14        (c)  A  one-time  charge  of  20%  is  imposable upon the
15    amount of past-due child support owed on July 1,  1988  which
16    has  accrued under a support order entered by the court.  The
17    charge shall be imposed in accordance with the provisions  of
18    Section  10-21  of  the Illinois Public Aid Code and shall be
19    enforced by the court upon petition.
20        (d)  Any new or existing support  order  entered  by  the
21    court  under  this  Section shall be deemed to be a series of
22    judgments  against  the  person  obligated  to  pay   support
23    thereunder,  each  such  judgment to be in the amount of each
24    payment or installment of support and each such  judgment  to
25    be deemed entered as of the date the corresponding payment or
26    installment becomes due under the terms of the support order.
27    Each  such  judgment  shall  have  the full force, effect and
28    attributes of any other judgment of this State, including the
29    ability to be enforced. A lien arises  by  operation  of  law
30    against  the  real  and personal property of the noncustodial
31    parent for each installment of overdue support  owed  by  the
32    noncustodial parent.
33        (e)  When  child  support is to be paid through the clerk
34    of the court in a county of 1,000,000  inhabitants  or  less,
 
                            -779-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    the  order  shall  direct the obligor to pay to the clerk, in
 2    addition to the child support payments, all fees  imposed  by
 3    the  county  board  under  paragraph (3) of subsection (u) of
 4    Section 27.1 of the Clerks of Courts  Act.   Unless  paid  in
 5    cash  or pursuant to an order for withholding, the payment of
 6    the fee shall be by a separate instrument  from  the  support
 7    payment and shall be made to the order of the Clerk.
 8        (f)  All  orders  for  support, when entered or modified,
 9    shall include a provision requiring the obligor to notify the
10    court and, in cases in which a party is receiving  child  and
11    spouse  services  under  Article X of the Illinois Public Aid
12    Code, the Illinois Department of Public Aid, within  7  days,
13    (i)  of  the  name  and  address  of  any new employer of the
14    obligor, (ii)  whether  the  obligor  has  access  to  health
15    insurance  coverage  through  the  employer  or  other  group
16    coverage and, if so, the policy name and number and the names
17    of  persons  covered  under  the policy, and (iii) of any new
18    residential or mailing address or  telephone  number  of  the
19    non-custodial  parent.  In any subsequent action to enforce a
20    support order, upon a  sufficient  showing  that  a  diligent
21    effort  has  been  made  to  ascertain  the  location  of the
22    non-custodial parent, service  of  process  or  provision  of
23    notice  necessary  in  the case may be made at the last known
24    address of the non-custodial parent in any  manner  expressly
25    provided  by  the  Code of Civil Procedure or this Act, which
26    service shall be sufficient for purposes of due process.
27        (g)  An order for support shall include a date  on  which
28    the  current  support obligation terminates.  The termination
29    date shall be no earlier than the date  on  which  the  child
30    covered  by  the  order will attain the age of majority or is
31    otherwise emancipated. The order for support shall state that
32    the termination date does not apply to any arrearage that may
33    remain unpaid on that date.  Nothing in this subsection shall
34    be construed to prevent the court from modifying the order.
 
                            -780-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        (h)  An order entered under this Section shall include  a
 2    provision  requiring the obligor to report to the obligee and
 3    to the clerk of court within 10 days each  time  the  obligor
 4    obtains   new   employment,   and  each  time  the  obligor's
 5    employment is terminated for any reason.  The report shall be
 6    in writing and shall, in the case of new employment,  include
 7    the  name and address of the new employer.  Failure to report
 8    new employment or the termination of current  employment,  if
 9    coupled  with nonpayment of support for a period in excess of
10    60 days, is indirect  criminal  contempt.   For  any  obligor
11    arrested  for  failure to report new employment bond shall be
12    set in the amount of the child support that should have  been
13    paid  during  the  period of unreported employment.  An order
14    entered under this Section shall  also  include  a  provision
15    requiring  the  obligor  and  obligee  parents to advise each
16    other of a change in residence within 5 days  of  the  change
17    except  when  the  court  finds that the physical, mental, or
18    emotional health of a party or that  of  a  minor  child,  or
19    both,  would  be  seriously  endangered  by disclosure of the
20    party's address.
21        (i)  The court does not  lose  the  powers  of  contempt,
22    driver's   license   suspension,   or   other  child  support
23    enforcement  mechanisms,  including,  but  not  limited   to,
24    criminal  prosecution  as  set  forth  in  this Act, upon the
25    emancipation of the minor child or children.

14    within 5 business days of any change. Failure of the  obligor
15    or  obligee  to file or update the required information shall
16    be punishable as in cases of contempt.  The failure shall not
17    prevent the court from entering or modifying  the  order  for
18    support, however.
19        (c)  The  obligor  shall  file the following information:
20    the obligor's name, date of birth,  social  security  number,

 2        the child or children covered by the order for support.

 4        (e)  In cases in which the obligee receives child support
 5    enforcement services from the Illinois Department  of  Public
 6    Aid  under  Article  X  of  the Illinois Public Aid Code, the
 7    order for support shall (i) require that the obligee file the
 8    information required under subsection (d) with  the  Illinois

10    Registry, rather than file the information  with  the  clerk,

17             (3)  The  name, address, and telephone number of the
18        obligee's employer or employers.
19        The order for support shall also require that the obligee
20    update the information filed with the Illinois Department  of
21    Public Aid within 5 business days of any change.
22        (f)  The  clerk shall provide the information filed under
23    this Section, together  with  the  court  docket  number  and
24    county  in  which  the  order for support was entered, to the

17        Sec. 510.  Modification and termination of provisions for
18    maintenance,  support,  educational  expenses,  and  property
19    disposition.
20        (a)  Except  as  otherwise  provided  in paragraph (f) of
21    Section 502 and in subsection (b) (d), clause (3) of  Section
22    505.2,  the provisions of any judgment respecting maintenance
23    or support may be modified only as to  installments  accruing
24    subsequent to due notice by the moving party of the filing of
25    the motion for modification and, with respect to maintenance,
26    only upon a showing of a substantial change in circumstances.
27    An order for child support may be modified as follows:
28             (1)  upon  a  showing  of  a  substantial  change in
29        circumstances; and
30             (2)  without the necessity of showing a  substantial
31        change in circumstances, as follows:
32                  (A)  upon  a  showing of an inconsistency of at
33             least 20%, but no less than $10 per  month,  between
 
                            -784-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1             the  amount  of the existing order and the amount of
 2             child support that results from application  of  the
 3             guidelines  specified  in  Section  505  of this Act
 4             unless the inconsistency is due to the fact that the
 5             amount  of  the  existing  order  resulted  from   a
 6             deviation  from  the  guideline amount and there has
 7             not been a change in the circumstances that resulted
 8             in that deviation; or
 9                  (B)  Upon a showing of a need  to  provide  for
10             the  health  care needs of the child under the order
11             through health insurance  or  other  means.   In  no
12             event  shall  the  eligibility  for  or  receipt  of
13             medical assistance be considered to meet the need to
14             provide for the child's health care needs.
15        The provisions of subparagraph (a)(2)(A) shall apply only
16    in  cases  in  which  a  party  is receiving child and spouse
17    support services from the Illinois Department of  Public  Aid
18    under  Article  X  of  the Illinois Public Aid Code, and only
19    when at least 36 months have  elapsed  since  the  order  for
20    child support was entered or last modified.
21        (b)  The provisions as to property disposition may not be
22    revoked  or modified, unless the court finds the existence of
23    conditions that justify the reopening of a judgment under the
24    laws of this State.
25        (c)  Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in a  written
26    agreement  set forth in the judgment or otherwise approved by
27    the court,  the  obligation  to  pay  future  maintenance  is
28    terminated  upon the death of either party, or the remarriage
29    of the party receiving maintenance, or if the party receiving
30    maintenance cohabits  with  another  person  on  a  resident,
31    continuing conjugal basis.
32        (d)  Unless  otherwise  agreed  in  writing  or expressly
33    provided in a judgment, provisions for the support of a child
34    are terminated  by  emancipation  of  the  child,  except  as
 
                            -785-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    otherwise  provided  herein, but not by the death of a parent
 2    obligated to  support  or  educate  the  child.  An  existing
 3    obligation  to  pay  for  support or educational expenses, or
 4    both, is not terminated by the death of  a  parent.   When  a
 5    parent  obligated  to pay support or educational expenses, or
 6    both, dies, the amount of support or educational expenses, or
 7    both, may be enforced, modified, revoked  or  commuted  to  a
 8    lump   sum   payment,   as   equity  may  require,  and  that
 9    determination  may  be  provided  for  at  the  time  of  the
10    dissolution of the marriage or thereafter.
11        (e)  The right to petition  for  support  or  educational
12    expenses,  or  both,  under  Sections  505  and  513  is  not
13    extinguished  by the death of a parent. Upon a petition filed
14    before or after a parent's death, the court may award sums of
15    money out of the decedent's estate for the child's support or
16    educational expenses, or both, as equity  may  require.   The
17    time  within which a claim may be filed against the estate of
18    a decedent under Sections 505 and 513 and subsection (d)  and
19    this  subsection  shall  be governed by the provisions of the
20    Probate Act of 1975, as a barrable, noncontingent claim.
21        (f)  A petition to modify  or  terminate  child  support,
22    custody,  or  visitation  shall  not  delay any child support
23    enforcement litigation or supplementary proceeding on  behalf
24    of the obligee, including, but not limited to, a petition for
25    a  rule  to  show  cause,  for non-wage garnishment, or for a
26    restraining order.

28        Section 88.  The Non-Support Punishment Act is amended by
29    changing Section 50 as follows:

30        (750 ILCS 16/50)
31        Sec. 50.  Community service; work alternative program.
32        (a)  In addition to any other penalties  imposed  against
 
                            -786-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    an  offender under this Act, the court may order the offender
 2    to perform community service for not less  than  30  and  not
 3    more  than  120  hours  per  month,  if  community service is
 4    available in the jurisdiction and is funded and  approved  by
 5    the  county  board  of  the  county  where  the  offense  was
 6    committed.   In  addition,  whenever  any person is placed on
 7    supervision for committing an offense  under  this  Act,  the
 8    supervision  shall  be  conditioned on the performance of the
 9    community service.
10        (b) In addition to any other penalties imposed against an
11    offender under this Act, the court may sentence the  offender
12    to  service in a work alternative program administered by the
13    sheriff.  The conditions of the program are that the offender
14    obtain  or  retain  employment  and  participate  in  a  work
15    alternative  program  administered  by  the  sheriff   during
16    non-working   hours.    A  person  may  not  be  required  to
17    participate  in  a  work  alternative  program   under   this
18    subsection if the person is currently participating in a work
19    program  pursuant  to  another provision of this Act, Section
20    10-11.1 of the Illinois Public Aid Code, Section 505.1 of the
21    Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, or Section
22    15.1 of the Illinois Parentage Act of 1984.
23        (c)  In addition to any other penalties  imposed  against
24    an  offender  under  this  Act, the court may order, in cases
25    where the offender has been in violation of this Act  for  90
26    days or more, that the offender's Illinois driving privileges
27    be  suspended until the court determines that the offender is
28    in compliance with this Act.
29        The  court  may  determine  that  the  offender   is   in
30    compliance  with  this  Act if the offender has agreed (i) to
31    pay all  required  amounts  of  support  and  maintenance  as
32    determined  by the court or (ii) to the garnishment of his or
33    her income for the purpose of paying those amounts.
34        The court may also order that the offender  be  issued  a
 
                            -787-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    family  financial  responsibility  driving  permit that would
 2    allow limited driving privileges for employment  and  medical
 3    purposes  in  accordance with Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois
 4    Vehicle Code. The clerk of the circuit  court  shall  certify
 5    the  order  suspending the driving privileges of the offender
 6    or granting the issuance of a family financial responsibility
 7    driving permit to the Secretary of State on forms  prescribed
 8    by   the   Secretary.   Upon  receipt  of  the  authenticated
 9    documents,  the  Secretary  of  State   shall   suspend   the
10    offender's  driving  privileges  until  further  order of the
11    court and shall, if ordered by  the  court,  subject  to  the
12    provisions  of  Section 7-702.1 of the Illinois Vehicle Code,
13    issue a family financial responsibility driving permit to the
14    offender.
15        (d)  If the court determines that the offender  has  been
16    in violation of this Act for more than 60 days, the court may
17    determine whether the offender has applied for or been issued
18    a  professional  license  by  the  Department of Professional
19    Regulation  or  another  licensing  agency.   If  the   court
20    determines  that  the offender has applied for or been issued
21    such a license, the court may certify to  the  Department  of
22    Professional  Regulation  or  other licensing agency that the
23    offender has been in violation of this Act for more  than  60
24    days  so  that  the  Department  or  other  agency  may  take
25    appropriate  steps with respect to the license or application
26    as provided in Section 10-65 of the  Illinois  Administrative
27    Procedure  Act  and  Section  2105-15  of  the  Department of
28    Professional Regulation Law 60 of  the  Civil  Administrative
29    Code  of  Illinois.   The court may take the actions required
30    under this subsection  in  addition  to  imposing  any  other
31    penalty authorized under this Act.

 2        (750 ILCS 50/1) (from Ch. 40, par. 1501)

 4    context otherwise requires:
 5        A.  "Child"  means  a  person  under legal age subject to
 6    adoption under this Act.
 7        B.  "Related child" means a  child  subject  to  adoption
 8    where either or both of the adopting parents stands in any of
 9    the   following  relationships  to  the  child  by  blood  or

11    step-grandparent,  step-brother,  step-sister,  uncle,  aunt,
12    great-uncle, great-aunt, or cousin of first degree.  A  child
13    whose  parent  has  executed  a  final irrevocable consent to
14    adoption or a final irrevocable  surrender  for  purposes  of
15    adoption,  or whose parent has had his or her parental rights

24    grounds  of  unfitness  are any one or more of the following,
25    except that a person shall not be considered an unfit  person
26    for  the sole reason that the person has relinquished a child
27    in accordance with the Abandoned  Newborn  Infant  Protection
28    Act:
29             (a)  Abandonment of the child.
30             (a-1)  Abandonment   of   a   newborn  infant  in  a

14             (f)  Two or more findings of physical abuse  to  any
15        children  under  Section 4-8 of the Juvenile Court Act or
16        Section 2-21 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the  most
17        recent  of  which  was  determined  by the juvenile court
18        hearing  the  matter  to  be  supported  by   clear   and
19        convincing  evidence;  a criminal conviction or a finding
20        of not guilty by reason of insanity  resulting  from  the
21        death  of any child by physical child abuse; or a finding
22        of physical child abuse resulting from the death  of  any
23        child  under  Section  4-8  of  the Juvenile Court Act or
24        Section 2-21 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
25             (g)  Failure to protect the  child  from  conditions
26        within his environment injurious to the child's welfare.
27             (h)  Other  neglect  of,  or  misconduct  toward the
28        child; provided that in making a finding of unfitness the
29        court hearing the adoption proceeding shall not be  bound
30        by  any  previous finding, order or judgment affecting or
31        determining the rights of the parents  toward  the  child
32        sought  to be adopted in any other proceeding except such
33        proceedings terminating parental rights as shall  be  had
34        under  either  this  Act,  the  Juvenile Court Act or the
 
                            -790-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
 2             (i)  Depravity.   Conviction  of  any  one  of   the
 3        following crimes shall create a presumption that a parent
 4        is  depraved  which  can  be  overcome  only by clear and
 5        convincing evidence: (1) first degree murder in violation
 6        of paragraph 1 or 2 of subsection (a) of Section  9-1  of
 7        the  Criminal Code of 1961 or conviction of second degree
 8        murder in violation of subsection (a) of Section  9-2  of
 9        the  Criminal Code of 1961 of a parent of the child to be
10        adopted; (2) first degree murder or second degree  murder
11        of  any  child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961;
12        (3) attempt or conspiracy to commit first  degree  murder
13        or  second degree murder of any child in violation of the
14        Criminal Code of 1961; (4) solicitation to commit  murder
15        of  any child, solicitation to commit murder of any child
16        for hire, or solicitation to commit second degree  murder
17        of  any  child in violation of the Criminal Code of 1961;
18        or (5) aggravated criminal sexual assault in violation of
19        Section 12-14(b)(1) of the Criminal Code of 1961.
20             There is a rebuttable presumption that a  parent  is
21        depraved  if  the parent has been criminally convicted of
22        at least 3 felonies under the laws of this State  or  any
23        other  state,  or under federal law, or the criminal laws
24        of any United States territory; and at least one of these
25        convictions took place within 5 years of  the  filing  of
26        the  petition  or  motion seeking termination of parental
27        rights.
28             There is a rebuttable presumption that a  parent  is
29        depraved  if that parent has been criminally convicted of
30        either first or second degree murder  of  any  person  as
31        defined  in  the Criminal Code of 1961 within 10 years of
32        the filing date of the petition or  motion  to  terminate
33        parental rights.
34             (j)  Open and notorious adultery or fornication.

 1             (j-1)  (Blank).
 2             (k)  Habitual  drunkenness  or  addiction  to drugs,
 3        other than those prescribed by a physician, for at  least
 4        one  year  immediately  prior  to the commencement of the
 5        unfitness proceeding.
 6             There is a rebuttable presumption that a  parent  is
 7        unfit  under this subsection with respect to any child to
 8        which that parent gives birth where there is a  confirmed
 9        test  result  that  at birth the child's blood, urine, or
10        meconium contained any amount of a  controlled  substance
11        as  defined  in  subsection  (f)  of  Section  102 of the
12        Illinois Controlled Substances Act or metabolites of such
13        substances, the presence of which in the  newborn  infant
14        was  not  the result of medical treatment administered to
15        the mother or the  newborn  infant;  and  the  biological
16        mother of this child is the biological mother of at least
17        one  other  child  who  was adjudicated a neglected minor
18        under subsection (c) of Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court
19        Act of 1987.
20             (l)  Failure to demonstrate a reasonable  degree  of
21        interest,  concern or responsibility as to the welfare of
22        a new born child during  the  first  30  days  after  its
23        birth.
24             (m)  Failure  by  a  parent  (i)  to make reasonable
25        efforts to correct the conditions that were the basis for
26        the removal of the child from the parent, or (ii) to make
27        reasonable progress toward the return of the child to the
28        parent within 9 months after an adjudication of neglected
29        or abused minor under Section 2-3 of the  Juvenile  Court
30        Act  of 1987 or dependent minor under Section 2-4 of that
31        Act, or (iii) to  make  reasonable  progress  toward  the
32        return  of  the  child  to  the parent during any 9-month
33        period after  the  end  of  the  initial  9-month  period
34        following  the  adjudication of neglected or abused minor
 
                            -792-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        under Section 2-3 of the Juvenile Court Act  of  1987  or
 2        dependent  minor  under  Section  2-4  of  that Act. If a
 3        service plan  has  been  established  as  required  under
 4        Section  8.2  of the Abused and Neglected Child Reporting
 5        Act to correct the conditions that were the basis for the
 6        removal of  the  child  from  the  parent  and  if  those
 7        services  were available, then, for purposes of this Act,
 8        "failure to make reasonable progress toward the return of
 9        the child  to  the  parent"  includes  (I)  the  parent's
10        failure  to  substantially fulfill his or her obligations
11        under the service plan and correct  the  conditions  that
12        brought  the  child  into  care within 9 months after the
13        adjudication under Section 2-3 or  2-4  of  the  Juvenile
14        Court  Act  of  1987  and  (II)  the  parent's failure to
15        substantially fulfill his or her  obligations  under  the
16        service  plan and correct the conditions that brought the
17        child into care during any 9-month period after  the  end
18        of  the initial 9-month period following the adjudication
19        under Section 2-3 or 2-4 of the  Juvenile  Court  Act  of
20        1987.
21             (m-1)  Pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, a
22        child has been in foster care for 15 months out of any 22
23        month  period which begins on or after the effective date
24        of this amendatory Act of 1998 unless the child's  parent
25        can  prove  by a preponderance of the evidence that it is
26        more likely  than  not  that  it  will  be  in  the  best
27        interests  of  the  child  to  be  returned to the parent
28        within 6 months of the  date  on  which  a  petition  for
29        termination   of  parental  rights  is  filed  under  the
30        Juvenile Court Act of 1987.  The 15 month time  limit  is
31        tolled  during  any  period  for  which  there is a court
32        finding that the appointed custodian or  guardian  failed
33        to  make reasonable efforts to reunify the child with his
34        or her family,  provided  that  (i)  the  finding  of  no
 
                            -793-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        reasonable  efforts  is made within 60 days of the period
 2        when reasonable efforts were not made or (ii) the  parent
 3        filed  a  motion  requesting  a  finding of no reasonable
 4        efforts within 60 days  of  the  period  when  reasonable
 5        efforts  were not made.  For purposes of this subdivision
 6        (m-1), the date of entering foster care  is  the  earlier
 7        of: (i) the date of a judicial finding at an adjudicatory
 8        hearing  that  the  child  is  an  abused,  neglected, or
 9        dependent minor; or (ii) 60 days after the date on  which
10        the child is removed from his or her parent, guardian, or
11        legal custodian.
12             (n)  Evidence of intent to forgo his or her parental
13        rights,  whether or not the child is a ward of the court,
14        (1) as manifested by his or her failure for a  period  of
15        12  months:  (i)  to visit the child, (ii) to communicate
16        with the child or agency, although able to do so and  not
17        prevented  from  doing so by an agency or by court order,
18        or (iii) to maintain contact with or plan for the  future
19        of  the  child, although physically able to do so, or (2)
20        as manifested by the father's failure, where he  and  the
21        mother  of  the child were unmarried to each other at the
22        time  of  the  child's  birth,  (i)  to  commence   legal
23        proceedings to establish his paternity under the Illinois
24        Parentage  Act  of 1984 or the law of the jurisdiction of
25        the child's birth  within  30  days  of  being  informed,
26        pursuant  to  Section  12a  of  this  Act, that he is the
27        father or the likely father of the child or, after  being
28        so  informed  where  the child is not yet born, within 30
29        days of the child's birth, or (ii) to make a  good  faith
30        effort to pay a reasonable amount of the expenses related
31        to  the  birth  of  the child and to provide a reasonable
32        amount for the financial support of the child, the  court
33        to   consider   in   its   determination   all   relevant
34        circumstances,  including the financial condition of both
 
                            -794-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        parents;  provided  that  the  ground   for   termination
 2        provided  in  this  subparagraph (n)(2)(ii) shall only be
 3        available where the petition is brought by the mother  or
 4        the husband of the mother.
 5             Contact or communication by a parent with his or her
 6        child  that  does  not  demonstrate affection and concern
 7        does not constitute reasonable contact and planning under
 8        subdivision (n).  In  the  absence  of  evidence  to  the
 9        contrary,  the  ability  to  visit, communicate, maintain
10        contact, pay expenses and plan for the  future  shall  be
11        presumed.   The  subjective intent of the parent, whether
12        expressed or otherwise, unsupported by  evidence  of  the
13        foregoing  parental  acts  manifesting that intent, shall
14        not preclude a determination that the parent has intended
15        to forgo his or her  parental  rights.   In  making  this
16        determination,  the  court  may  consider  but  shall not
17        require a showing of diligent efforts  by  an  authorized
18        agency  to  encourage  the  parent  to  perform  the acts
19        specified in subdivision (n).
20             It shall be an affirmative defense to any allegation
21        under paragraph (2) of this subsection that the  father's
22        failure was due to circumstances beyond his control or to
23        impediments  created  by  the  mother or any other person
24        having legal custody.  Proof of that fact need only be by
25        a preponderance of the evidence.
26             (o)  Repeated or continuous failure by the  parents,
27        although  physically and financially able, to provide the
28        child with adequate food, clothing, or shelter.
29             (p)  Inability      to      discharge       parental
30        responsibilities  supported  by competent evidence from a
31        psychiatrist,  licensed  clinical   social   worker,   or
32        clinical   psychologist   of  mental  impairment,  mental
33        illness or mental retardation as defined in Section 1-116
34        of the Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Code,
 
                            -795-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        or developmental disability as defined in  Section  1-106
 2        of  that  Code,  and there is sufficient justification to
 3        believe  that  the  inability   to   discharge   parental
 4        responsibilities  shall  extend  beyond a reasonable time
 5        period.  However,  this  subdivision  (p)  shall  not  be
 6        construed  so  as  to  permit  a licensed clinical social
 7        worker to conduct  any  medical  diagnosis  to  determine
 8        mental illness or mental impairment.
 9             (q)  The  parent  has  been  criminally convicted of
10        aggravated battery, heinous battery, or attempted  murder
11        of any child.
12             (r)  The  child  is  in  the  temporary  custody  or
13        guardianship  of  the  Department  of Children and Family
14        Services, the parent  is  incarcerated  as  a  result  of
15        criminal  conviction  at  the time the petition or motion
16        for termination of parental rights  is  filed,  prior  to
17        incarceration  the  parent  had little or no contact with
18        the child or provided little or no support for the child,
19        and the parent's incarceration will  prevent  the  parent
20        from discharging his or her parental responsibilities for
21        the  child  for  a  period in excess of 2 years after the
22        filing of the  petition  or  motion  for  termination  of

19        (750 ILCS 60/222) (from Ch. 40, par. 2312-22)
20        Sec. 222.  Notice of orders.
21        (a)  Entry  and  issuance.  Upon issuance of any order of
22    protection, the clerk shall immediately, or on the next court
23    day if an  emergency  order  is  issued  in  accordance  with

15    with a short form notification as provided in Section 222.10.

30    petition for order of protection  or  receipt  of  the  order
31    issued under Section 217 of this Act.

15    written  notice  of  the  transfer,  including  the  name and

30    those records to the respondent.  The school shall  file  the
31    copy of the order of protection in the records of a child who
32    is  a protected person under the order of protection.  When a
33    child who is a protected person under the order of protection
34    transfers   to   another   day-care   facility,   pre-school,
 
                            -803-              LRB9215370EGfg

27    under Section 20 of that Act.

 9    These  establishments may also sell, prepare or maintain food
10    not represented as halal.
11        "Director" means the Director of Agriculture.
12        "Food" means an animal grown to  become  food  for  human
13    consumption,  a  food,  a  food product, a food ingredient, a

16    compliance  with the laws and customs of the Islamic religion
17    including but not  limited  to  those  laws  and  customs  of
18    zabiha/zebeeha  (slaughtered according to appropriate Islamic

20    entities and scholars.
21        (b)  Any dealer who grows animals represented to be grown
22    in  a  halal  way  or  who  prepares,  distributes, sells, or
23    exposes for sale any  food  represented  to  be  halal  shall
24    disclose  the basis upon which those representations are made
25    by posting the  information  required  by  the  Director,  in
26    accordance with rules adopted by the Director, on a sign of a
27    type  and  size  specified  by the Director, in a conspicuous

29    for sale, as required by the Director.
30        (c)  Any person subject to the requirements of subsection
31    (b)  does not commit an unlawful practice if the person shows
32    by a preponderance of the evidence that the person relied  in

34    slaughterhouse,   manufacturer,   processor,    packer,    or
 
                            -816-              LRB9215370EGfg

 6    of that food with the intent to sell.
 7        (e)  Any dealer who grows animals represented to be grown
 8    in  a  halal  way  or  who  prepares,  distributes, sells, or
 9    exposes for sale any  food  represented  to  be  halal  shall

14    way  to  become  food  for  human  consumption,  nor  a  food
15    commodity represented as halal, may be offered for sale by  a

17    documenting information  of  the  certifying  Islamic  entity
18    specialized in halal food or the supervising Muslim Inspector
19    of Halal Food.
20        (g)  The  Director  shall  adopt  rules to carry out this

27        Section 95.  The Business Opportunity Sales Law  of  1995
28    is amended by changing Section 5-60 as follows:

29        (815 ILCS 602/5-60)
30        Sec. 5-60.  Investigations and subpoenas.
31        (a)  The Secretary of State:
32             (1)  may  make such public or private investigations
 
                            -817-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        within or outside of this State as the Secretary of State
 2        deems necessary  to  determine  whether  any  person  has
 3        violated or is about to violate any provision of this Law
 4        or  any  rule, regulation, or order under this Law, or to
 5        aid in the enforcement of this Law or in the  prescribing
 6        of rules and forms under this Law;
 7             (2)  may  require  or  permit  any  person to file a
 8        statement, under oath or otherwise as  the  Secretary  of
 9        State  determines,  as to all the facts and circumstances
10        concerning the matter to be investigated; and
11             (3)  may   publish   information   concerning    any
12        violation  of  this Law or any rule, regulation, or order
13        under this Law.
14        (b)  For the purpose of any investigation  or  proceeding
15    under this Law, the Secretary of State or his or her designee
16    may  administer  oaths  and affirmations, subpoena witnesses,
17    compel  their  attendance,  take  evidence  and  require,  by
18    subpoena or other lawful means provided by this  Act  or  the
19    rules  adopted  by  the Secretary of State, the production of
20    any books, papers, correspondence, memoranda, agreements,  or
21    other documents or records which the Secretary of State deems
22    relevant or material to the inquiry.
23        (c)  In  case  of  contumacy  by,  or  refusal  to obey a
24    subpoena  issued  to  any  person  under  this  Section,  the
25    Secretary of  State,  through  the  Office  of  the  Attorney
26    General, may bring an appropriate action in any circuit court
27    of  the  State  of  Illinois for the purpose of enforcing the
28    subpoena.
29        (d)  It shall be a violation of the  provisions  of  this
30    Law  for  any  person  to  fail to file with the Secretary of
31    State any report, document, or statement required to be filed
32    under the provisions of this Section or  to  fail  to  comply
33    with  the terms of any order of the Secretary of State issued
34    pursuant to this Law.

 2        Section 96.  The Motor Vehicle Franchise Act  is  amended
 3    by changing Section 6 as follows:

 4        (815 ILCS 710/6) (from Ch. 121 1/2, par. 756)
 5        Sec.  6.  Warranty agreements; claims; approval; payment;
 6    written disapproval.
 7        (a)  Every   manufacturer,    distributor,    wholesaler,
 8    distributor  branch  or division, factory branch or division,
 9    or wholesale branch or division shall  properly  fulfill  any
10    warranty  agreement and adequately and fairly compensate each
11    of its motor vehicle dealers for labor and parts.
12        (b)  In no event shall such compensation fail to  include
13    reasonable  compensation  for  diagnostic  work,  as  well as
14    repair service, labor, and parts.  Time  allowances  for  the
15    diagnosis  and performance of warranty work and service shall
16    be reasonable and adequate for the work to be performed.   In
17    the determination of what constitutes reasonable compensation
18    under   this  Section,  the  principal  factor  to  be  given
19    consideration shall be the prevailing wage rates  being  paid
20    by  the dealer in the relevant market area in which the motor
21    vehicle dealer is doing business, and in no event shall  such
22    compensation  of  a motor vehicle dealer for warranty service
23    be less than the  rates  charged  by  such  dealer  for  like
24    service  to  retail  customers  for  nonwarranty  service and
25    repairs.  The franchiser shall reimburse the  franchisee  for
26    any  parts  provided  in  satisfaction  of  a warranty at the
27    prevailing retail price charged by that dealer for  the  same
28    parts  when  not  provided  in  satisfaction  of  a warranty;
29    provided that  such  motor  vehicle  franchisee's  prevailing
30    retail  price  is not unreasonable when compared with that of
31    the holders of motor vehicle franchises from the  same  motor
32    vehicle   franchiser   for   identical   merchandise  in  the
 
                            -819-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    geographic area in which  the  motor  vehicle  franchisee  is
 2    engaged   in   business.   All  claims,  either  original  or
 3    resubmitted, made by  motor  vehicle  dealers  hereunder  and
 4    under  Section  5  for  such  labor and parts shall be either
 5    approved  or  disapproved  within  30  days  following  their
 6    submission.  All approved claims shall be paid within 30 days
 7    following their  approval.   The  motor  vehicle  dealer  who
 8    submits  a  claim  which  is disapproved shall be notified in
 9    writing of the disapproval within the same period,  and  each
10    such  notice  shall state the specific grounds upon which the
11    disapproval is based.  The  motor  vehicle  dealer  shall  be
12    permitted  to  correct  and  resubmit such disapproved claims
13    within 30 days of receipt of  disapproval.   Any  claims  not
14    specifically disapproved in writing within 30 days from their
15    submission  shall be deemed approved and payment shall follow
16    within 30 days.  The manufacturer or  franchiser  shall  have
17    the  right to require reasonable documentation for claims and
18    to audit such claims within a one year period from  the  date
19    the  claim  was  paid or credit issued by the manufacturer or
20    franchiser, and to charge back any false  or  unsubstantiated
21    claims.  The audit and charge back provisions of this Section
22    also  apply to all other incentive and reimbursement programs
23    for a period of 18 months after the date of the  transactions
24    that  are  subject  to audit by the franchiser.  However, the
25    manufacturer retains the right to charge back any  fraudulent
26    claim if the manufacturer establishes in a court of competent
27    jurisdiction in this State that the claim is fraudulent.
28        (c)  The   motor   vehicle   franchiser   shall  not,  by
29    agreement, by restrictions upon reimbursement, or  otherwise,
30    restrict  the nature and extent of services to be rendered or
31    parts to be provided so that such  restriction  prevents  the
32    motor  vehicle  franchisee  from  satisfying  the warranty by
33    rendering services in  a  good  and  workmanlike  manner  and
34    providing   parts  which  are  required  in  accordance  with
 
                            -820-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    generally accepted standards.   Any  such  restriction  shall
 2    constitute a prohibited practice.
 3        (d)  For  the  purposes  of this Section, the "prevailing
 4    retail price charged by that dealer for the same parts" means
 5    the price paid by the motor  vehicle  franchisee  for  parts,
 6    including  all  shipping and other charges, multiplied by the
 7    sum of 1.0 and the  franchisee's  average  percentage  markup
 8    over the price paid by the motor vehicle franchisee for parts
 9    purchased  by  the  motor  vehicle  franchisee from the motor
10    vehicle franchiser and sold at  retail.   The  motor  vehicle
11    franchisee may establish average percentage markup under this
12    Section  by  submitting  to  the motor vehicle franchiser 100
13    sequential customer paid service repair orders or 90 days  of
14    customer  paid  service  repair  orders,  whichever  is less,
15    covering repairs made  no  more  than  180  days  before  the
16    submission,  and declaring what the average percentage markup
17    is.  The average percentage markup so declared shall go  into
18    effect 30 days following the declaration, subject to audit of
19    the  submitted  repair orders by the motor vehicle franchiser
20    and adjustment of the average percentage markup based on that
21    audit.  Any audit must be conducted within 30 days  following
22    the  declaration.   Only  retail sales not involving warranty
23    repairs, parts covered by subsection (e) of this Section,  or
24    parts  supplied  for  routine  vehicle  maintenance, shall be
25    considered in  calculating  average  percentage  markup.   No
26    motor  vehicle  franchiser  shall  require  a  motor  vehicle
27    franchisee  to  establish  average  percentage  markup  by  a
28    methodology,  or  by  requiring  information,  that is unduly
29    burdensome or time consuming to provide, including,  but  not
30    limited  to,  part  by  part  or  transaction  by transaction
31    calculations.  A motor vehicle franchisee shall not request a
32    change in the average percentage markup more  than  twice  in
33    one calendar year.
34        (e)  If  a  motor  vehicle  franchiser supplies a part or
 
                            -821-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    parts for use in a repair rendered  under  a  warranty  other
 2    than  by  sale  of  that  part  or parts to the motor vehicle
 3    franchisee, the motor vehicle franchisee shall be entitled to
 4    compensation equivalent to  the  motor  vehicle  franchisee's
 5    average  percentage  markup  on  the part or parts, as if the
 6    part or parts had been sold to the motor  vehicle  franchisee
 7    by  the  motor  vehicle franchiser.  The requirements of this
 8    subsection (e) shall not apply to  entire  engine  assemblies
 9    and  entire  transmission  assemblies.   In the case of those
10    assemblies, the motor vehicle franchiser shall reimburse  the
11    motor  vehicle  franchisee  in  the amount of 30% of what the
12    motor vehicle franchisee would have paid  the  motor  vehicle
13    franchiser  for  the  assembly  if  the assembly had not been
14    supplied by the franchiser other than by  the  sale  of  that
15    assembly to the motor vehicle franchisee.
16        (f)  The obligations imposed on motor vehicle franchisers
17    by  this  Section  shall  apply  to  any  parent, subsidiary,
18    affiliate, or agent of  the  motor  vehicle  franchiser,  any
19    person under common ownership or control, any employee of the
20    motor  vehicle  franchiser, and any person holding 1% or more
21    of the shares of any class of securities or  other  ownership
22    interest  in  the  motor vehicle franchiser, if a warranty or
23    service or repair plan is issued by that person instead of or
24    in addition to one issued by the motor vehicle franchiser.
25        (g) (1)  Any motor vehicle  franchiser  and  at  least  a
26    majority  of  its  Illinois franchisees of the same line make
27    may agree in an express written contract citing this  Section
28    upon   a   uniform  warranty  reimbursement  policy  used  by
29    contracting franchisees to  perform  warranty  repairs.   The
30    policy shall only involve either reimbursement for parts used
31    in  warranty  repairs  or the use of a Uniform Time Standards
32    Manual, or both.  Reimbursement for parts under the agreement
33    shall be used instead of the franchisees' "prevailing  retail
34    price  charged  by that dealer for the same parts" as defined
 
                            -822-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1    in this  Section  to  calculate  compensation  due  from  the
 2    franchiser  for parts used in  warranty repairs. This Section
 3    does not authorize a franchiser and its Illinois  franchisees
 4    to establish a uniform hourly labor reimbursement.
 5        Each  franchiser  shall only have one such agreement with
 6    each line make. Any such agreement shall:
 7             (A)  Establish a uniform parts  reimbursement  rate.
 8        The  uniform  parts  reimbursement  rate shall be greater
 9        than  the  franchiser's  nationally   established   parts
10        reimbursement  rate  in effect at the time the first such
11        agreement  becomes  effective;  however,  any  subsequent
12        agreement shall result in a  uniform  reimbursement  rate
13        that  is  greater  or  equal to the rate set forth in the
14        immediately prior agreement.
15             (B)  Apply to all  warranty  repair  orders  written
16        during the period that the agreement is effective.
17             (C)  Be   available,   during   the   period  it  is
18        effective, to any motor vehicle franchisee  of  the  same
19        line make at any time and on the same terms.
20             (D)  Be  for a term not to exceed 3 years so long as
21        any party to the agreement may  terminate  the  agreement
22        upon  the annual anniversary of the agreement and with 30
23        days' prior written notice; however, the agreement  shall
24        remain in effect for the term of the agreement regardless
25        of  the  number of dealers of the same line make that may
26        terminate the agreement.
27        (2)  A franchiser that enters into an agreement with  its
28    franchisees  pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection (g)
29    may seek to recover its costs  from  only  those  franchisees
30    that  are receiving their "prevailing retail price charged by
31    that dealer"  under  subsections  (a)  through  (f)  of  this
32    Section, subject to the following requirements:
33             (A)  "costs"   means   the  difference  between  the
34        uniform reimbursement rate  set  forth  in  an  agreement
 
                            -823-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        entered into pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection
 2        (g)  and  the   "prevailing  retail price charged by that
 3        dealer" received by those franchisees of  the  same  line
 4        make;
 5             (B)  the costs shall be recovered only by increasing
 6        the  invoice  price  on  new  vehicles  received by those
 7        franchisees; and
 8             (C)  price increases  imposed  for  the  purpose  of
 9        recovering  costs  imposed  by this Section may vary from
10        time to time and from model to  model,  but  shall  apply
11        uniformly to all franchisees of the same line make in the
12        State  of  Illinois that have requested reimbursement for
13        warranty repairs  at  their    "prevailing  retail  price
14        charged  by  that  dealer",  except that a franchiser may
15        make an exception for vehicles that  are  titled  in  the
16        name of a consumer in another state.
17        (3)  If  a franchiser contracts with its Illinois dealers
18    pursuant  to  paragraph  (1)  of  this  subsection  (g),  the
19    franchiser shall certify under  oath  to  the  Motor  Vehicle
20    Review  Board that a majority of the franchisees of that line
21    make did agree to such an agreement and file a sample copy of
22    the agreement.  On an annual  basis,  each  franchiser  shall
23    certify under oath to the Motor Vehicle Review Board that the
24    reimbursement  costs  it recovers under paragraph (2) of this
25    subsection (g)  do  not  exceed  the  amounts  authorized  by
26    paragraph  (2)  of this subsection (g).  The franchiser shall
27    maintain for a period of 3 years a  file  that  contains  the

11        Section  97.   The Public Safety Employee Benefits Act is
12    amended by changing Section 15 as follows:

13        (820 ILCS 320/15)
14        Sec.   15.  Required   educational   benefits.    If    a
15    firefighter, law enforcement, or correctional or correctional
16    probation   officer   is   accidentally   or  unlawfully  and
17    intentionally  killed  as  specified  in  subsection  (b)  of
18    Section 10 Section 5 on or after  July  1,  1980,  the  State
19    shall  waive  certain  educational expenses which children of
20    the deceased incur  while  obtaining  a  vocational-technical
21    certificate   or   an  undergraduate  education  at  a  State
22    supported institution.  The amount waived by the State  shall
23    be  an  amount equal to the cost of tuition and matriculation
24    and registration fees for a total of 120 credit  hours.   The
25    child  may  attend  a  State  vocational-technical  school, a
26    public community college, or a State university.   The  child
27    may  attend  any or all of the institutions specified in this
28    Section, on either  a  full-time  or  part-time  basis.   The
29    benefits  provided  under  this Section shall continue to the
30    child until the child's 25th birthday.
31             (1)  Upon failure of  any  child  benefited  by  the
32        provisions  of  this  Section to comply with the ordinary
 
                            -825-              LRB9215370EGfg
 1        and minimum requirements  of  the  institution  attended,
 2        both as to discipline and scholarship, the benefits shall
 3        be withdrawn as to the child and no further moneys may be
 4        expended  for the child's benefits so long as the failure
 5        or delinquency continues.
 6             (2)  Only a student in good standing in his  or  her
 7        respective  institution  may  receive  the benefits under
 8        this Section.
 9             (3)  A child receiving benefits under  this  Section
10        must  be  enrolled  according  to the customary rules and
11        requirements of the institution attended.

13        Section 997.  No acceleration or delay.  Where  this  Act
14    makes changes in a statute that is represented in this Act by
15    text  that  is not yet or no longer in effect (for example, a
16    Section represented by multiple versions), the  use  of  that
17    text  does  not  accelerate or delay the taking effect of (i)
18    the changes made by this Act or (ii) provisions derived  from
19    any other Public Act.

20        Section 998.  No revival or extension.  This Act does not
21    revive or extend any Section or Act otherwise repealed.
