| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7 | Sec. 7. Disposition of transferable property.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8 | (a) Except as provided in subsection (c), whenever a | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9 | responsible officer
considers it advantageous to
the State to | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10 | dispose of transferable property by trading it in for
credit on | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11 | a replacement of like nature, the responsible officer shall
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12 | report the trade-in and replacement to the administrator on | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13 | forms furnished

14 | of "textbooks" as defined in
Section 18-17 of the School Code | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15 | between schools or school districts pursuant
to regulations | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16 | adopted by the State Board of Education under that Section
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17 | shall not constitute a disposition of transferable property | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18 | within the
meaning of this Section, even though such exchange, | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
19 | trade or transfer
occurs within 5 years after the textbooks are | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
20 | first provided for loan
pursuant to Section 18-17 of the School | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
21 | Code.
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
22 | (b) Except as provided in subsection (c), whenever it is | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
23 | deemed
necessary to dispose of any item of
transferable |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | property, the administrator shall proceed to dispose of the
| ||||||
2 | property by sale or scrapping as the case may be, in whatever | ||||||
3 | manner he
considers most advantageous and most profitable to | ||||||
4 | the State.
Items of transferable property which would | ||||||
5 | ordinarily be scrapped and
disposed of by burning or by burial | ||||||
6 | in a landfill may be examined and a
determination made whether | ||||||
7 | the property should be recycled. This
determination and any | ||||||
8 | sale of recyclable property shall be in accordance
with rules | ||||||
9 | promulgated by the Administrator.
| ||||||
10 | When the administrator determines that property is to be | ||||||
11 | disposed of
by sale, he shall offer it first to the | ||||||
12 | municipalities, counties, and
school districts of the State and | ||||||
13 | to charitable, not-for-profit educational
and public health | ||||||
14 | organizations, including but not limited to medical
| ||||||
15 | institutions, clinics, hospitals, health centers, schools, | ||||||
16 | colleges,
universities, child care centers, museums, nursing | ||||||
17 | homes, programs for the
elderly, food banks, State Use | ||||||
18 | Sheltered Workshops and
the Boy and Girl Scouts of America, for | ||||||
19 | purchase at an appraised
value. Notice of inspection or viewing | ||||||
20 | dates and property lists
shall be distributed in the manner | ||||||
21 | provided in rules and regulations
promulgated by the | ||||||
22 | Administrator for that purpose.
| ||||||
23 | Electronic data processing equipment purchased and charged | ||||||
24 | to
appropriations may, at the discretion of the administrator, | ||||||
25 | be sold, pursuant
to contracts entered into by the Director of | ||||||
26 | Central Management Services or
the heads of agencies exempt |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | from "The Illinois Purchasing Act". However
such equipment | ||||||
2 | shall not be sold at prices less than the purchase cost
thereof | ||||||
3 | or depreciated value as determined by the administrator. No
| ||||||
4 | sale of the electronic data processing equipment and lease to | ||||||
5 | the State
by the purchaser of such equipment shall be made | ||||||
6 | under this Act unless
the Director of Central Management | ||||||
7 | Services finds
that such contracts are financially | ||||||
8 | advantageous to the State.
| ||||||
9 | Surplus State computers that are in good operating | ||||||
10 | condition may also be donated pursuant to Section 5-110 of the | ||||||
11 | Eliminate the Digital Divide Law.
| ||||||
12 | Disposition of other transferable property by sale, except | ||||||
13 | sales
directly to local governmental units, school districts, | ||||||
14 | and not-for-profit
educational, charitable and public health | ||||||
15 | organizations, shall be subject
to the following minimum | ||||||
16 | conditions:
| ||||||
17 | (1) The administrator shall cause the property to be | ||||||
18 | advertised for
sale to the highest responsible bidder, | ||||||
19 | stating time, place, and terms
of such sale at least 7 days | ||||||
20 | prior to the time of sale and at least once
in a newspaper | ||||||
21 | having a general circulation in the county where the
| ||||||
22 | property is to be sold.
| ||||||
23 | (2) If no acceptable bids are received, the | ||||||
24 | administrator may then
sell the property in whatever manner | ||||||
25 | he considers most advantageous and
most profitable to the | ||||||
26 | State.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, an | ||||||
2 | agency covered
by this Act may transfer books, serial | ||||||

located in Illinois:
| ||||||

| ||||||

or any library that is a member of such | ||||||
11 | a system.
| ||||||

22 | (30 ILCS 780/5-110 new) | ||||||

1 | charge to individuals and entities within the State that are | ||||||
2 | negatively impacted by the digital divide. The computers must | ||||||
3 | be in good working condition. The Department shall establish | ||||||
