Amends the Property Tax Code. Makes a technical change in a Section concerning subpoenas of the Property Tax Appeal Board.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1

	Deletes reference to:
	35 ILCS 200/16-175

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Property Tax Code. With respect to the senior citizens assessment freeze homestead exemption, authorizes county boards to establish a "standard exemption transfer amount" to allow a person who has previously been granted the homestead exemption and who relocates to a new residence to be eligible to reapply for the first taxable year that the person occupies the new residence on January 1. Provides that the "base amount" is then: (i) the equalized assessed value for the first taxable year that the person occupies the new residence on January 1; minus (ii) the standard exemption transfer amount; plus (iii) the first year's equalized assessed value of any added improvements that increased the assessed value of the new residence. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2

	Deletes reference to:
	35 ILCS 200/16-175

	Adds reference to:
	35 ILCS 200/15-172

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Property Tax Code. Provides that if a taxpayer, who has been granted a Senior Citizens Assessment Freeze Homestead Exemption, transfers his or her residence, then the base amount for the new residence is an amount equal to the base amount of the taxpayer's prior residence if the new residence (i) has a current equalized assessed value that is equal to or less than the current equalized assessed value of the taxpayer's prior residence; (ii) is located in the same county as the prior residence; and (iii) is acquired and used for residential purposes within 30 days before or after the transfer of the prior residence. Effective immediately.
