    Section 10. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by
changing Section 8-8-3.5 as follows:
 
    (65 ILCS 5/8-8-3.5)
    Sec. 8-8-3.5. Tax Increment Financing Report. The reports
filed under subsection (d) of Section 11-74.4-5 of the Tax
Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act and the reports filed
under subsection (d) of Section 11-74.6-22 of the Industrial
Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois Municipal Code must be
separate from any other annual report filed with the
Comptroller. The Comptroller must, in cooperation with
reporting municipalities, create a format for the reporting of
information described in paragraphs (1.5) and (5) and in
subparagraph (G) of paragraph (7) of subsection (d) of Section
11-74.4-5 of the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act and
the information described in paragraphs (1.5) and (5) and in
subparagraph (G) of paragraph (7) of subsection (d) of Section
11-74.6-22 of the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law that facilitates
consistent reporting among the reporting municipalities. The
Comptroller may allow these reports to be filed electronically
and may display the report, or portions of the report,
electronically via the Internet. All reports filed under this
Section must be made available for examination and copying by
the public at all reasonable times. A Tax Increment Financing
Report must be filed electronically with the Comptroller within
180 days after the close of the municipal fiscal year or as
soon thereafter as the audit for the redevelopment project area
for that fiscal year becomes available. If the Tax Increment
Finance administrator provides the Comptroller's office with
sufficient evidence that the report is in the process of being
completed by an auditor, the Comptroller may grant an
extension. If the required report is not filed within the time
extended by the Comptroller, the Comptroller may charge a
municipality a fee of $5 per day for the first 15 days past
due, $10 per day for 16 through 30 days past due, $15 per day
for 31 through 45 days past due, and $20 per day for the 46th
day and every day thereafter. All fees collected pursuant to
this Section shall be deposited into the Comptroller's
Administrative Fund.
