To the Honorable Members of the

Illinois Senate

95th General Assembly

 

            Pursuant to Article IV, Section 9(b) of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, I hereby veto Senate Bill 735, entitled “AN ACT concerning local government.”   I recognize and appreciate the hard work of all the sponsors in passing this legislation.  However, Senate Bill 735 creates a third tax base that is administratively untenable. 

 

 

            For this reason, I hereby veto and return Senate Bill 735.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

 

ROD R. BLAGOJEVICH

Governor
