1 | AN ACT concerning local government.
| ||||||
2 | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||||
3 | represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||||
4 | Section 5. The Metropolitan Water Reclamation District Act | ||||||
5 | is amended by changing Sections 8 and 8c as follows:
| ||||||
6 | (70 ILCS 2605/8) (from Ch. 42, par. 327)
| ||||||
7 | Sec. 8. Except as otherwise in this Act provided, the | ||||||
8 | sanitary district
may acquire by lease, purchase or otherwise | ||||||
9 | within or without its corporate
limits, or by condemnation | ||||||
10 | within its corporate limits, any and all real
and personal | ||||||
11 | property, right of way and privilege that may be required for
| ||||||
12 | its corporate purposes. All moneys for the purchase and | ||||||
13 | condemnation of
any property must be paid before possession is | ||||||
14 | taken, or any work done on
the premises. In case of an appeal | ||||||
15 | from the Court in which the condemnation
proceedings are | ||||||
16 | pending, taken by either party, whereby the amount of damages
| ||||||
17 | is not finally determined, the amount of the judgment in the | ||||||
18 | court shall
be deposited with the county treasurer of the | ||||||
19 | county in which the judgment
is rendered, subject to the | ||||||
20 | payment of damages on orders signed by the judge
whenever the | ||||||
21 | amount of damages is finally determined.
| ||||||
22 | Upon recommendation of the general superintendent and upon | ||||||
23 | the
approval of the board of trustees when any real or personal |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | property,
right of way or privilege or any interest therein, or | ||||||
2 | any part thereof
of such sanitary district is no longer | ||||||
3 | required for the corporate
purposes of the sanitary district it | ||||||
4 | may be sold, vacated or released.
Such sales, vacations, or | ||||||
5 | releases may be made subject to such
conditions and the | ||||||
6 | retention of such interest therein as may be deemed
for the | ||||||
7 | best interest of such sanitary district as recommended by the
| ||||||
8 | general superintendent and approved by the board of trustees.
| ||||||
9 | However, the sanitary district may enter into a lease of a | ||||||
10 | building
or a part thereof, or acquire title to a building | ||||||
11 | already constructed or
to be constructed, for the purpose of | ||||||
12 | securing office space for its
administrative corporate | ||||||
13 | functions, the period of such lease not to
exceed 15 years | ||||||
14 | except as authorized by the provisions of Section 8b of
this | ||||||
15 | Act. In the event of the purchase of such property for
| ||||||
16 | administrative corporate functions, the sanitary district may | ||||||
17 | execute a
mortgage or other documents of indebtedness as may be | ||||||
18 | required for the
unpaid balance, to be paid in not more than 15 | ||||||
19 | annual installments.
Annual installments on the mortgage or | ||||||
20 | annual payment on the lease shall
be considered a current | ||||||
21 | corporate expense of the year in which they are
to be paid, and | ||||||
22 | the amount of such annual installment or payment shall
be | ||||||
23 | included in the Annual Appropriation and Corporate Tax Levy
| ||||||
24 | Ordinances. Such expense may be incurred, notwithstanding the
| ||||||
25 | provisions, if any applicable, contained in any other Sections | ||||||
26 | of this
Act.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | The sanitary district may dedicate to the public for | ||||||
2 | highway purposes
any of its real property and the dedications | ||||||
3 | may be made subject to such
conditions and the retention of | ||||||
4 | such interests therein as considered in
the best interests of | ||||||
5 | the sanitary district by the board of trustees
upon | ||||||
6 | recommendation of the general superintendent.
| ||||||
7 | The sanitary district may lease to others for any period of | ||||||
8 | time, not
to exceed 99 years, upon the terms as its board of | ||||||
9 | trustees upon
recommendation of the general superintendent may | ||||||
10 | determine, any such
real property, right-of-way or privilege, | ||||||
11 | or any interest therein or any
part thereof, which is in the | ||||||
12 | opinion of the board of trustees and
general superintendent of | ||||||
13 | the sanitary district no longer required for
its corporate | ||||||
14 | purposes or which may not be immediately needed for such
| ||||||
15 | purposes. The leases may contain such terms and conditions , | ||||||
16 | including restrictions as to permissible use of the real | ||||||
17 | property, and retain such
interests therein as considered in | ||||||
18 | the best interests of the sanitary
district by the board of | ||||||
19 | trustees upon recommendation of the general
superintendent. | ||||||
20 | Negotiations and execution of such leases and
preparatory | ||||||
21 | activities in connection therewith must comply with Section
8c | ||||||
22 | of this Act. The sanitary district may grant easements and | ||||||
23 | permits
for the use of any such real property, right-of-way, or | ||||||
24 | privilege, which
will not in the opinion of the board of | ||||||
25 | trustees and general
superintendent of the sanitary district | ||||||
26 | interfere with the use thereof
by the sanitary district for its |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | corporate purposes. Such easements and
permits may contain such | ||||||
2 | conditions and retain such interests therein as
considered in | ||||||
3 | the best interests of the sanitary district by the board
of | ||||||
4 | trustees upon recommendation of the general superintendent.
| ||||||
5 | No sales, vacations, dedications for highway purposes, or | ||||||
6 | leases for periods
in excess of 5 years, of the following | ||||||

acquisition | ||||||
11 | of sites and easements therefor, and the financing of the Local

superintendent as not being | ||||||
14 | needed by the United States for the purposes

24 | Act, and
if no bonds are then outstanding, for the purpose of | ||||||
25 | paying principal
and interest upon any general obligation bonds | ||||||
26 | of the sanitary district,
and for corporate purposes of the |
| |||||||

| ||||||
6 | (70 ILCS 2605/8c) (from Ch. 42, par. 327c)
| ||||||
7 | Sec. 8c. Every lease of property no longer or not | ||||||
8 | immediately
required for corporate purposes of a sanitary | ||||||
9 | district, from such
district to others for a term not to exceed | ||||||
10 | 99 years, in accordance with
Section 8 of this Act, shall be | ||||||
11 | negotiated, created and executed in the
following manner:
| ||||||
12 | (1) Notice of such proposed leasing shall be published for | ||||||
13 | 3
consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation | ||||||
14 | published in
such sanitary district, if any, and otherwise in | ||||||
15 | the county containing
such district.
| ||||||
16 | (2) Prior to receipt of bids for the lease under this | ||||||
17 | Section, the
fair market value of every parcel of real property | ||||||
18 | to be leased must be
determined by 2 professional appraisers | ||||||
19 | who are members of the American
Institute of Real Estate | ||||||
20 | Appraisers or a similar, equivalently
recognized professional | ||||||
21 | organization. The sanitary district acting
through the general | ||||||
22 | superintendent may select and engage an additional
appraiser | ||||||
23 | for such determination of fair market value. Every appraisal
| ||||||
24 | report must contain an affidavit certifying the absence of any | ||||||
25 | collusion
involving the appraiser and relating to the lease of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | such property.
| ||||||
2 | (3) No
Such lease must be awarded to the highest | ||||||
3 | responsible bidder
(including established commercial or | ||||||
4 | industrial concerns and financially
responsible individuals) | ||||||
5 | upon free and open competitive bids, except
that no lease may | ||||||
6 | be awarded unless the bid of such highest responsible
bidder | ||||||
7 | provides for an annual rental payment to the sanitary district | ||||||
8 | of
at least 6% of the parcel's fair market value determined | ||||||
9 | under this Section , provided however, if the sanitary district | ||||||
10 | determines that a parcel contains a special development | ||||||
11 | impediment, defined as any condition that constitutes a | ||||||
12 | material impediment to the development or lease of a parcel, | ||||||
13 | and includes, but is not limited to: environmental | ||||||
14 | contamination, obsolescence, or advanced disrepair of | ||||||
15 | improvements or structures, or accumulation of large | ||||||
16 | quantities of non-indigenous materials, the sanitary district | ||||||
17 | may establish a minimum acceptable initial annual rental of | ||||||
18 | less than 6% of the parcel's fair market value for the initial | ||||||
19 | 10 years of the lease. In no event will the annual rental | ||||||
20 | payment for each 10-year period after the initial 10 years of | ||||||
21 | the lease be less than the 6% of the parcel's fair market value | ||||||
22 | determined under this Section. Every lease must be awarded to | ||||||
23 | the highest responsible bidder (including established | ||||||
24 | commercial or industrial concerns and financially responsible | ||||||
25 | individuals) upon free and open competitive bids. In | ||||||
26 | determining the responsibility of any bidder, the Sanitary |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | District may consider, in addition to financial | ||||||
2 | responsibility, any past records of transactions with the | ||||||
3 | bidder and any other pertinent factors, including but not | ||||||
4 | limited to, the bidder's performance or past record with | ||||||
5 | respect to any lease, use, occupancy, or trespass of Sanitary | ||||||
6 | District or other lands .
| ||||||
7 | (4) Prior to acceptance of the bid of the highest | ||||||
8 | responsible bidder
and before execution of the lease the bidder | ||||||
9 | shall submit to the board
of commissioners and general | ||||||
10 | superintendent, for incorporation in the lease,
a detailed plan | ||||||
11 | and description of improvements to be constructed upon
the | ||||||
12 | leased property, the time within which the improvements will be
| ||||||
13 | completed, and the intended uses of the leased property. If | ||||||
14 | there is more
than one responsible bid, the board of | ||||||
15 | commissioners may authorize and direct
the general | ||||||
16 | superintendent to solicit from the 2 highest responsible | ||||||
17 | bidders
written amendments to their prior bids, increasing | ||||||
18 | their rental bid proposal
by at least 5% in excess of their | ||||||
19 | prior written bid, or otherwise amending the
financial terms of | ||||||
20 | their bid so as to maximize the financial return to the
| ||||||
21 | sanitary district during the term of the proposed lease. Upon | ||||||
22 | the general
superintendent's tentative agreement with one or | ||||||
23 | more amended bids, the bids
may be submitted to the board of | ||||||
24 | commissioners with the recommendation of the
general | ||||||
25 | superintendent for acceptance of one or rejection of all. The
| ||||||
26 | amendments may not result in a diminution of the terms of the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | transaction and
must result in an agreement that is equal to or | ||||||
2 | greater in value than the
highest responsible bid initially | ||||||
3 | received.
| ||||||
4 | (5) The execution of such lease must be contemporaneous to | ||||||
5 | the
execution by the lessee, each member of the board of | ||||||
6 | commissioners and the
general superintendent of an affidavit | ||||||
7 | certifying the absence of any
collusion involving the lessee, | ||||||
8 | the members and the general
superintendent and relating to such | ||||||
9 | lease.
| ||||||
10 | (6) No later than 30 days after the effective date of the | ||||||
11 | lease, the
lessee must deliver to the sanitary district a | ||||||
12 | certified statement of
the County Assessor, Township Assessor | ||||||
13 | or the county clerk of the county
wherein the property is | ||||||
14 | situated that such property is presently
contained in the | ||||||
15 | official list of lands and lots to be assessed for
taxes for | ||||||
16 | the several towns or taxing districts in his county.
| ||||||
17 | (7) Such lease shall provide for a fixed annual rental | ||||||
18 | payment for the
first year not less than 6% of the fair market | ||||||
19 | value as determined under
this Section and may be subject to | ||||||
20 | annual adjustments based on changes in
the Consumer Price Index | ||||||
21 | published by the United States Department of
Labor, Bureau of | ||||||
22 | Labor Statistics, or some other well known economic
| ||||||
23 | governmental activity index. Any lease, the term of which will | ||||||
24 | extend for
15 years or more, shall provide for a | ||||||
25 | redetermination of the fair market
value (independent of | ||||||
26 | improvements to the property subsequent to the
effective date |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | of the lease) after the initial 10 years and every 10 years
| ||||||
2 | thereafter, in the manner set forth in paragraph (2) of this | ||||||
3 | Section, which redetermination shall be referred to as the | ||||||
4 | decennial adjustment. Where the property rental is less than 6% | ||||||
5 | of fair market value due to the existence of a special | ||||||
6 | development impediment, the first decennial adjustment shall | ||||||
7 | not occur until the twentieth year of the lease. Such
said
| ||||||
8 | redetermination shall
to be as of the first day of each | ||||||
9 | succeeding 10 year period,
and annual rental payments shall be | ||||||
10 | adjusted so that the ratio of annual
rental to fair market | ||||||
11 | value shall be the same as that ratio for the first
year of the | ||||||
12 | preceding 10 year period. The decennial adjustment shall not | ||||||
13 | exceed 100% of the rental in effect on the last day of the | ||||||
14 | preceding 10-year period, except when the property rental is | ||||||
15 | less than 6% of fair market value due to the existence of a | ||||||
16 | special development impediment, in which case, the decennial | ||||||
17 | adjustment shall not be so limited until the twentieth year of | ||||||
18 | the lease. The rental payment for the first
year of the new 10 | ||||||
19 | year period may be subject to Consumer Price Index or
other | ||||||
20 | allowable index adjustments for each of the next 9 years, or | ||||||
21 | until
the end of the lease term if there are less than 9 years | ||||||
22 | remaining.
| ||||||
23 | (8) A sanitary district may require compensation to be paid | ||||||
24 | in addition to
rent, based on a reasonable percentage of | ||||||
25 | revenues derived from a lessee's
business operations on the | ||||||
26 | leasehold premises or subleases, or may require
additional |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | compensation from the lessee or any sublessee in the form of
| ||||||
2 | services, including but not limited to solid waste disposal; | ||||||
3 | provided,
however, that such additional compensation shall not | ||||||
4 | be considered in
determining the highest responsible bid, said | ||||||
5 | highest responsible bid to be
determined only on the initial | ||||||
6 | annual rental payment as set forth in
paragraph (3) of this | ||||||
7 | Section.
| ||||||
8 | (9) No assignment of such lease or sublease of such | ||||||
9 | property is
effective unless approved in writing by the general | ||||||
10 | superintendent and
the board of commissioners of the sanitary | ||||||
11 | district. The District may consider, for any assignment or | ||||||
12 | sublease, all pertinent factors including the assignee's or | ||||||
13 | sublessee's responsibility in accordance with subparagraph (3) | ||||||
14 | of this Section. The sanitary district may also condition its | ||||||
15 | consent upon the redetermination of the annual rental required | ||||||
16 | to be paid under any lease initially executed on or before | ||||||
17 | January 1, 1983, for which the annual rent being paid | ||||||
18 | thereunder is less than 6% of the current appraised fair market | ||||||
19 | value of the leased property. The redetermination of any annual | ||||||
20 | rental under this Section shall be consistent with the | ||||||
21 | requirements of subparagraphs (2) and (3) of this Section. No | ||||||
22 | assignment or
sublease is effective if the assignee or | ||||||
23 | sublessee is a trust
constituted by real property of which the | ||||||
24 | trustee has title but no power
of management or control, unless | ||||||
25 | the identity of the beneficiaries of
the trust is revealed, | ||||||
26 | upon demand, to the general superintendent and
the board of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | commissioners of the sanitary district.
| ||||||
2 | (10) Failure by the lessee to comply with a provision in | ||||||
3 | the lease
relating to improvements upon the leased property or | ||||||
4 | any other provision
constitutes grounds for forfeiture of the | ||||||
5 | lease, and upon such failure
the sanitary district acting | ||||||
6 | through the general superintendent shall
serve the lessee with | ||||||
7 | a notice to terminate the lease and deliver
possession of the | ||||||
8 | property to the sanitary district within a particular
period.
| ||||||
