(20 ILCS 3501/805-45)

Sec. 805-45. Cooperation with Local Industrial Development Agencies. When the Authority receives an application from a potential insured loan borrower, it shall promptly notify the local industrial development agency of that fact in writing if such an agency exists in the municipality or county where such industrial project is proposed to be financed; or the corporate authorities in such municipality where no such agency exists. The Authority shall provide the local industrial development agency with any available information that the agency needs to prepare a recommendation concerning the advisability of the industrial project and its impact, economic and otherwise, on the community and the State. Such application shall include a written authorization by the applicant that such notification and information be made available to such agency or municipality to the extent that such information is not deemed to be confidential under Section 805-50 of this Act. The Authority shall not consider any application that does not include such written authorization. The Authority shall encourage financial participation by local industrial development agencies by giving priority consideration to insured loan applicants from areas serviced by those agencies that have demonstrated a commitment to economic development.
