 6    Sections 6z-18 and 6z-20 as follows:

 7        (30 ILCS 105/6z-18) (from Ch. 127, par. 142z-18)
 8        Sec.  6z-18.   A portion of the money paid into the Local
 9    Government Tax Fund from sales of food for human  consumption
10    which  is  to  be  consumed off the premises where it is sold
11    (other than alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and  food  which
12    has been prepared for immediate consumption) and prescription
13    and  nonprescription medicines, drugs, medical appliances and
14    insulin, urine testing materials, syringes and  needles  used
15    by  diabetics,  which  occurred  in  municipalities, shall be
16    distributed to each municipality based upon the  sales  which
17    occurred  in  that  municipality.   The  remainder  shall  be
18    distributed  to  each  county  based  upon  the  sales  which
19    occurred in the unincorporated area of that county.
20        A portion of the money paid into the Local Government Tax
21    Fund from the 6.25% general use tax rate on the selling price
22    of  tangible  personal  property  which  is purchased outside
 
                            -2-            LRB9112052SMmbam02
 1    Illinois at retail from a retailer and  which  is  titled  or
 2    registered  by any agency of this State's government shall be
 3    distributed to municipalities as provided in this  paragraph.
 4    Each  municipality  shall  receive the amount attributable to
 5    sales  for  which   Illinois   addresses   for   titling   or
 6    registration   purposes   are   given   as   being   in  such
 7    municipality.  The remainder of the money paid into the Local
 8    Government Tax Fund from such sales shall be  distributed  to
 9    counties.   Each county shall receive the amount attributable
10    to  sales  for  which  Illinois  addresses  for  titling   or
11    registration  purposes  are  given  as  being  located in the
12    unincorporated area of such county.
13        A portion of the money paid into the Local Government Tax
14    Fund from the 6.25% general rate (and the 1.25% rate on motor
15    fuel and gasohol) on sales  subject  to  taxation  under  the
16    Retailers'  Occupation Tax Act and the Service Occupation Tax
17    Act, which occurred in municipalities, shall  be  distributed
18    to  each municipality, based upon the sales which occurred in
19    that municipality. The remainder shall be distributed to each
20    county,  based  upon  the  sales  which   occurred   in   the
21    unincorporated area of such county.
22        For  the  purpose  of determining allocation to the local
23    government unit, a retail sale by a producer of coal or other
24    mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail  at  the  place
25    where  the  coal  or  other  mineral  mined  in  Illinois  is
26    extracted  from  the earth.  This paragraph does not apply to
27    coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by  the
28    seller  to  the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that
29    the sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as  a
30    sale in interstate or foreign commerce.
31        Whenever the Department determines that a refund of money
32    paid  into  the Local Government Tax Fund should be made to a
33    claimant  instead  of  issuing  a  credit   memorandum,   the
34    Department  shall  notify  the  State  Comptroller, who shall
 
                            -3-            LRB9112052SMmbam02
 1    cause the order to be drawn for the amount specified, and  to
 2    the  person  named, in such notification from the Department.
 3    Such refund shall be paid by the State Treasurer out  of  the
 4    Local Government Tax Fund.
 5        On  or  before  the  25th day of each calendar month, the
 6    Department shall prepare and certify to the  Comptroller  the
 7    disbursement  of stated sums of money to named municipalities
 8    and counties, the municipalities and  counties  to  be  those
 9    entitled  to  distribution  of taxes or penalties paid to the
10    Department during the second preceding  calendar  month.  The
11    amount to be paid to each municipality or county shall be the
12    amount  (not including credit memoranda) collected during the
13    second preceding calendar month by the  Department  and  paid
14    into  the  Local  Government  Tax  Fund,  plus  an amount the
15    Department determines is  necessary  to  offset  any  amounts
16    which  were  erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and
17    not including an amount equal to the amount of  refunds  made
18    during the second preceding calendar month by the Department,
19    and  not including any amount which the Department determines
20    is necessary to offset any amounts which  are  payable  to  a
21    different  taxing  body  but  were  erroneously  paid  to the
22    municipality or county.  Within 10 days after receipt, by the
23    Comptroller,  of  the  disbursement  certification   to   the
24    municipalities and counties,  provided for in this Section to
25    be   given   to   the  Comptroller  by  the  Department,  the
26    Comptroller shall cause  the  orders  to  be  drawn  for  the
27    respective   amounts   in   accordance  with  the  directions
28    contained in such certification.
29        When certifying the amount of monthly disbursement  to  a
30    municipality  or  county  under  this Section, the Department
31    shall increase or decrease that amount by an amount necessary
32    to offset any misallocation of  previous  disbursements.  The
33    offset  amount  shall  be  the  amount  erroneously disbursed
34    within the 6 months preceding the  time  a  misallocation  is
 
                            -4-            LRB9112052SMmbam02
 1    discovered.
 2        The  provisions  directing  the  distributions  from  the
 3    special  fund  in  the  State  Treasury  provided for in this
 4    Section  shall  constitute  an  irrevocable  and   continuing
 5    appropriation  of  all  amounts as provided herein. The State
 6    Treasurer and State Comptroller are hereby authorized to make
 7    distributions as provided in this Section.
 8        In construing any development, redevelopment, annexation,
 9    preannexation or other lawful agreement in  effect  prior  to
10    September 1, 1990, which describes or refers to receipts from
11    a  county  or municipal retailers' occupation tax, use tax or
12    service occupation tax which  now  cannot  be  imposed,  such
13    description  or  reference  shall  be  deemed  to include the
14    replacement revenue for  such  abolished  taxes,  distributed
15    from the Local Government Tax Fund.

22    Mass  Transit  District  Fund,  distribution  to the Regional
23    Transportation  Authority  tax  fund,  created  pursuant   to
24    Section  4.03  of  the Regional Transportation Authority Act,
25    for deposit therein shall be made based upon the retail sales
26    occurring in a county having more than 3,000,000 inhabitants.
27    The remainder shall be  distributed  to  each  county  having
28    3,000,000  or  fewer  inhabitants based upon the retail sales

30        For the purpose of determining allocation  to  the  local
31    government unit, a retail sale by a producer of coal or other
32    mineral  mined  in  Illinois is a sale at retail at the place
33    where  the  coal  or  other  mineral  mined  in  Illinois  is

 1    extracted from the earth.  This paragraph does not  apply  to
 2    coal  or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the
 3    seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois  so  that
 4    the  sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as a
 5    sale in interstate or foreign commerce.
 6        Of the money received from the 6.25% general use tax rate
 7    on tangible personal  property  which  is  purchased  outside
 8    Illinois  at  retail  from  a retailer and which is titled or
 9    registered by any agency of this State's government and  paid
10    into  the  County  and Mass Transit District Fund, the amount
11    for which Illinois  addresses  for  titling  or  registration
12    purposes  are  given as being in each county having more than
13    3,000,000 inhabitants shall be distributed into the  Regional
14    Transportation   Authority  tax  fund,  created  pursuant  to
15    Section 4.03 of the Regional  Transportation  Authority  Act.
16    The  remainder  of  the  money  paid from such sales shall be
17    distributed to each county based on sales for which  Illinois
18    addresses  for  titling or registration purposes are given as
19    being located  in  the  county.   Any  money  paid  into  the
20    Regional  Transportation  Authority  Occupation  and  Use Tax

22    Fund  prior  to  January 14, 1991, which has not been paid to
23    the Authority prior to that date, shall be transferred to the
24    Regional Transportation Authority tax fund.
25        Whenever the Department determines that a refund of money
26    paid into the County and Mass Transit District Fund should be
27    made to a claimant instead of issuing  a  credit  memorandum,
28    the  Department shall notify the State Comptroller, who shall
29    cause the order to be drawn for the amount specified, and  to
30    the  person  named, in such notification from the Department.
31    Such refund shall be paid by the State Treasurer out  of  the

34    Department shall prepare and certify to the  Comptroller  the

 2    Transportation Authority and to named counties, the  counties
 3    to   be   those  entitled  to  distribution,  as  hereinabove
 4    provided, of taxes or penalties paid to the Department during
 5    the second preceding calendar month.  The amount to  be  paid
 6    to  the  Regional  Transportation  Authority  and each county
 7    having 3,000,000 or fewer inhabitants  shall  be  the  amount
 8    (not  including credit memoranda) collected during the second
 9    preceding calendar month by the Department and paid into  the
10    County  and  Mass  Transit  District Fund, plus an amount the
11    Department determines is  necessary  to  offset  any  amounts
12    which  were  erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and
13    not including an amount equal to the amount of  refunds  made
14    during the second preceding calendar month by the Department,
15    and  not including any amount which the Department determines
16    is necessary to offset any amounts which were  payable  to  a
17    different  taxing  body  but  were  erroneously  paid  to the
18    Regional Transportation Authority or county.  Within 10  days
19    after  receipt,  by  the  Comptroller,  of  the  disbursement

23    the  orders  to  be  drawn  for  the  respective  amounts  in
24    accordance   with   the   directions   contained   in    such
25    certification.
26        When  certifying  the amount of a monthly disbursement to
27    the Regional Transportation Authority or to  a  county  under
28    this  Section, the Department shall increase or decrease that
29    amount by an amount necessary to offset any misallocation  of
30    previous  disbursements.   The  offset  amount  shall  be the
31    amount erroneously disbursed within the  6  months  preceding
32    the time a misallocation is discovered.
33        The  provisions  directing  the  distributions  from  the
34    special  fund  in  the  State  Treasury  provided for in this
