    AN ACT concerning local government.
 
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
 
    Section 5. The Property Tax Code is amended by adding
Section 10-705 as follows:
 
    (35 ILCS 200/10-705 new)
    Sec. 10-705. Keystone property.
    (a) For the purposes of this Section:
        "Base year" means the last tax year prior to the date
    of the application during which the property was occupied
    and assessed and taxes were collected.
        "Tax year" means the calendar year for which assessed
    value is determined as of January 1 of that year.
        "Keystone property" means property that has had a
    distinguished past and is a prominent property in the
    Village of Park Forest, a home rule municipality in both
    Cook and Will Counties, but is not of historical
    significance or landmark status and meets the following
    criteria:
            (1) the property contains an existing industrial
        structure consisting of more than 100,000 square feet;
            (2) the property is located on a lot, parcel, or
        tract of land that is more than 5 acres in area;
            (3) the industrial structure was originally built
        more than 30 years prior to the date of the
        application;
            (4) the property has been vacant for a period of
        more than 5 consecutive years immediately prior to the
        date of the application; and
            (5) the property is not located in a tax increment
        financing district as of the date of the application.
    (b) Within one year from the effective date of this
amendatory Act of the 100th General Assembly, owners of real
property may apply with the municipality in which the property
is located to have the property designated as keystone
property. If the property meets the criteria for keystone
property set forth in subsection (a), then the corporate
authorities of the municipality have one year from the
effective date of this amendatory Act of the 100th General
Assembly within which they may certify the property as keystone
property for the purposes of promoting rehabilitation of vacant
property and fostering job creation in the fields of
manufacturing and research and development. The certification
shall be transmitted to the chief county assessment officer as
soon as possible after the property is certified.
    (c) Beginning with the first tax year after the property is
certified as keystone property and continuing through the
twelfth tax year after the property is certified as keystone
property, for the purpose of taxation under this Code, the
property shall be valued at 33 1/3% of the fair cash value of
the land, without regard to buildings, structures,
improvements, and other permanent fixtures located on the
property. For the first 3 tax years after the property is
certified as keystone property, the aggregate tax liability for
the property shall be no greater than $75,000. That aggregate
tax liability, once collected, shall be distributed to the
taxing districts in which the property is located according to
each taxing district's proportionate share of that aggregate
liability. Beginning with the fourth tax year after the
property is certified as keystone property and continuing
through the twelfth tax year after the property is certified as
keystone property, the property's tax liability for each taxing
district in which the property is located shall be increased
over the tax liability for the preceding year by the percentage
increase, if any, in the total equalized assessed value of all
property in the taxing district.
    No later than March 1 of each year before taxes are
extended for the prior tax year, the Village of Park Forest
shall certify to the county clerk of the county in which the
property is located a percentage reduction to be applied to
property taxes to limit the aggregate tax liability on keystone
property in accordance with this Section.
