Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Public Library Construction Act. Authorizes the Secretary of State to determine eligibility for and authorizes the Capitol Development Board (CDB) to make grants to public libraries for public library construction projects. Establishes an application procedure. Requires the Secretary of State to establish eligibility standards and priority standards for public library construction grants. Requires CDB to establish project standards for public library construction grants and to generally supervise public library construction projects. Requires a public library to submit the construction project or its financing to a referendum if required by law. Provides that the Chicago Public Library System may use public library construction grants for payment of debt service or a lease. Provides that public libraries eligible for but not awarded grants in a fiscal year shall continue to be considered in the next fiscal year. Authorizes CDB and the Secretary of State to promulgate rules concerning public library construction grants. Requires the Secretary of State and CDB to file with the General Assembly a comprehensive report of the capital needs of all public libraries in this State before January 1, 2006 and every 2 years thereafter. Amends the State Finance Act to create the Public Library Construction Fund.

 Fiscal Note (Capital Development Board)
 The capital cost cannot be determined until a study of the type called for in House Bill 3761 is completed.

 Fiscal Note (Office of the Secretary of State)
 House Bill 3761 has little to no fiscal impact on the Secretary of State's Office.

 State Mandates Fiscal Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
 Creates a local government organization and structure mandate for which reimbursement of the increased costs to units of local government is not required under the States Mandate Act.

 Home Rule Note (Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
 Does not pre-empt home rule authority.

 Judicial Note (H-AM 1)(Admin Office of the Illinois Courts)
 Based on a review of the bill it has been determined that this legislation would neither increase nor decrease the number of judges needed in the state.

 Fiscal Note (Dept of Corrections)
 There is no corrections population or fiscal impact on the Department of Corrections.

 State Debt Impact Note (H-AM 1)(Comm on Gov't Forecasting & Accountability)
 Although House Bill 3761, as amended by House Amendment 1, does not change the amount of authorization for general obligation or moral obligation bonds, it creates a grant program administered by the Capital Development Board which may use bond funds to provide grants to public libraries for public library construction projects.

 Fiscal Note (H-AM 1)(Dept of Corrections)
 There is no corrections population or fiscal impact on the Department of Corrections.

 Correctional Note (Dept of Corrections)
 There is no corrections population or fiscal impact on the Department of Corrections.

 Home Rule Note (H-AM 1)(Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
 Does not pre-empt home rule authority.

 State Mandates Fiscal Note (H-AM 1)(Dept. of Commerce & Economic Opportunity)
 Creates a local government organization and structure mandate for which reimbursement of the increased costs to units of local government is not required under the States Mandate Act.

 Pension Note (H-AM 1) (Gov. Forecasting & Accountability)
 Would not impact any public pension fund or retirement system in Illinois.

 Balanced Budget Note (Gov. Office of Management & Budget)
 Fiscal Impact: $600,000 in additional operations to CDB. Associated cost: Unknown capital expenditures.

 Fiscal Note (H-AM 1) (Capital Development Board)
 Would create a program within CDB similar to the School Infrastructure Program. That program requires eight staff at an annual cost of $600,000. The capital cost can not be determined until a study of the type called for in the legislation is completed.

 Fiscal Note (H-AM 1)(Department of Natural Resources)
 This bill would not impact the Department of Natural Resources.

 Housing Affordability Impact Note (H-AM 1) (Housing Development Authority)
 Insufficient information to determine a fiscal effect.

House Amendment No. 2

Provides that, of the total amount of public library construction project grants awarded statewide, 20% shall be awarded to the Chicago Public Library System, provided that the Chicago Public Library System complies with the provisions of the Public Library Construction Act, and 80% shall be awarded to public libraries outside of the City of Chicago. Deletes provisions authorizing the Chicago Public Library System to use any or all of the public library construction grants awarded to it to (i) pay debt service on bonds issued to finance public library construction projects or (ii) to make certain lease payments. Makes corresponding changes.

 Housing Affordability Impact Note (H-AM 1) (Housing Development Authority)
 Insufficient information to determine a fiscal effect.

 Judicial Note (H-AM 1)(Admin Office of the Illinois Courts)
