Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance

35 ILCS 200/18-178 new

Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Property Tax Code. Provides that the corporate authorities of a home rule municipality with 1,000,000 or more inhabitants, by ordinance, may order the county clerk to abate any percentage of the taxes levied by the municipality and any other taxing district on each parcel of certain qualified residential property within the corporate limits of the municipality that is owned by the surviving spouse of a fallen police officer or rescue worker. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes: Deletes the provision that the abatement applies only in municipalities with 1,000,000 or more inhabitants. Provides that the abatement applies to property that was acquired after the surviving spouse qualified for an abatement for a former qualified property only if that qualified property was located in the same municipality, and deletes a provision that, in such a case, the abatement applies only to the extent of the previous abatement. Provides that the term "fallen police officer or rescue worker" does not include any individual (now, to rescue workers) whose death was the result of that individual's own willful misconduct or abuse of alcohol or drugs. Provides that the municipality (instead of the county clerk) must notify affected taxing districts of the abatement. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
