1     AN ACT to revise the law by combining multiple enactments
2 and making technical corrections.
 
3     Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
4 represented in the General Assembly:
 
5     Section 1. Nature of this Act.
6     (a) This Act may be cited as the First 2008 General
7 Revisory Act.
8     (b) This Act is not intended to make any substantive change
9 in the law. It reconciles conflicts that have arisen from
10 multiple amendments and enactments and makes technical
11 corrections and revisions in the law.
12     This Act revises and, where appropriate, renumbers certain
13 Sections that have been added or amended by more than one
14 Public Act. In certain cases in which a repealed Act or Section
15 has been replaced with a successor law, this Act may
16 incorporate amendments to the repealed Act or Section into the
17 successor law. This Act also corrects errors, revises
18 cross-references, and deletes obsolete text.
19     (c) In this Act, the reference at the end of each amended
20 Section indicates the sources in the Session Laws of Illinois
21 that were used in the preparation of the text of that Section.
22 The text of the Section included in this Act is intended to
23 include the different versions of the Section found in the
24 Public Acts included in the list of sources, but may not

1 include other versions of the Section to be found in Public
2 Acts not included in the list of sources. The list of sources
3 is not a part of the text of the Section.
4     (d) Public Acts 94-1069 through 95-702 were considered in
5 the preparation of the combining revisories included in this
6 Act. Many of those combining revisories contain no striking or
7 underscoring because no additional changes are being made in

2     Pollwatchers must present their credentials to the Judges

4 credentials properly executed and signed shall be proof of the

7 of the judges of election as campaign activity shall be removed
8 forthwith from such polling place.
9     Candidates seeking office in a district or municipality
10 encompassing 2 or more counties who desire to be admitted to

6 noninstitutional services due to changes in the eligibility
7 criteria shall be given 60 days notice prior to actual
8 termination. Those persons receiving notice of termination may
9 contact the Department and request the determination be
10 appealed at any time during the 60 day notice period. With the

13 provided. Additionally, any portion of a person's income which
14 is equal to or less than the federal poverty standard shall not

5 against any real estate while it is occupied as a homestead by
6 the surviving spouse or other dependent, if no claims by other
7 creditors have been filed against the estate, or, if such
8 claims have been filed, they remain dormant for failure of

5     Sec. 4.02. Community Care Program. The Department shall
6 establish a program of services to prevent unnecessary
7 institutionalization of persons age 60 and older in need of
8 long term care or who are established as persons who suffer
9 from Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder under the
10 Alzheimer's Disease Assistance Act, thereby enabling them to
11 remain in their own homes or in other living arrangements. Such
12 preventive services, which may be coordinated with other

14 in cooperation with the Department, may include, but are not
15 limited to, any or all of the following:

25         (j) habilitation services;

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 43 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         (k) respite care;
2         (k-5) community reintegration services;
3         (k-6) flexible senior services;
4         (k-7) medication management;
5         (k-8) emergency home response;
6         (l) other nonmedical social services that may enable
7     the person to become self-supporting; or
8         (m) clearinghouse for information provided by senior
9     citizen home owners who want to rent rooms to or share
10     living space with other senior citizens.
11     The Department shall establish eligibility standards for
12 such services taking into consideration the unique economic and
13 social needs of the target population for whom they are to be
14 provided. Such eligibility standards shall be based on the
15 recipient's ability to pay for services; provided, however,
16 that in determining the amount and nature of services for which
17 a person may qualify, consideration shall not be given to the
18 value of cash, property or other assets held in the name of the
19 person's spouse pursuant to a written agreement dividing
20 marital property into equal but separate shares or pursuant to
21 a transfer of the person's interest in a home to his spouse,
22 provided that the spouse's share of the marital property is not
23 made available to the person seeking such services.
24     Beginning July 1, 2002, the Department shall require as a
25 condition of eligibility that all financially eligible
26 applicants apply for medical assistance under Article V of the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 44 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 Illinois Public Aid Code in accordance with rules promulgated
2 by the Department.
3     Beginning January 1, 2008, the Department shall require as
4 a condition of eligibility that all new financially eligible
5 applicants apply for and enroll in medical assistance under
6 Article V of the Illinois Public Aid Code in accordance with
7 rules promulgated by the Department.
8     The Department shall, in conjunction with the Department of
9 Public Aid (now Department of Healthcare and Family Services),
10 seek appropriate amendments under Sections 1915 and 1924 of the
11 Social Security Act. The purpose of the amendments shall be to
12 extend eligibility for home and community based services under
13 Sections 1915 and 1924 of the Social Security Act to persons
14 who transfer to or for the benefit of a spouse those amounts of
15 income and resources allowed under Section 1924 of the Social
16 Security Act. Subject to the approval of such amendments, the
17 Department shall extend the provisions of Section 5-4 of the
18 Illinois Public Aid Code to persons who, but for the provision
19 of home or community-based services, would require the level of
20 care provided in an institution, as is provided for in federal
21 law. Those persons no longer found to be eligible for receiving
22 noninstitutional services due to changes in the eligibility
23 criteria shall be given 60 days notice prior to actual
24 termination. Those persons receiving notice of termination may
25 contact the Department and request the determination be
26 appealed at any time during the 60 day notice period. With the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 45 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 exception of the lengthened notice and time frame for the
2 appeal request, the appeal process shall follow the normal
3 procedure. In addition, each person affected regardless of the
4 circumstances for discontinued eligibility shall be given
5 notice and the opportunity to purchase the necessary services
6 through the Community Care Program. If the individual does not
7 elect to purchase services, the Department shall advise the
8 individual of alternative services. The target population
9 identified for the purposes of this Section are persons age 60
10 and older with an identified service need. Priority shall be
11 given to those who are at imminent risk of
12 institutionalization. The services shall be provided to
13 eligible persons age 60 and older to the extent that the cost
14 of the services together with the other personal maintenance
15 expenses of the persons are reasonably related to the standards
16 established for care in a group facility appropriate to the
17 person's condition. These non-institutional services, pilot
18 projects or experimental facilities may be provided as part of
19 or in addition to those authorized by federal law or those
20 funded and administered by the Department of Human Services.
21 The Departments of Human Services, Healthcare and Family
22 Services, Public Health, Veterans' Affairs, and Commerce and
23 Economic Opportunity and other appropriate agencies of State,
24 federal and local governments shall cooperate with the
25 Department on Aging in the establishment and development of the
26 non-institutional services. The Department shall require an

1 annual audit from all personal assistant chore/housekeeping
2 and home care aide vendors contracting with the Department
3 under this Section. The annual audit shall assure that each
4 audited vendor's procedures are in compliance with
5 Department's financial reporting guidelines requiring an
6 administrative and employee wage and benefits cost split as
7 defined in administrative rules. The audit is a public record
8 under the Freedom of Information Act. The Department shall
9 execute, relative to the nursing home prescreening project,
10 written inter-agency agreements with the Department of Human
11 Services and the Department of Healthcare and Family Services,
12 to effect the following: (1) intake procedures and common
13 eligibility criteria for those persons who are receiving
14 non-institutional services; and (2) the establishment and
15 development of non-institutional services in areas of the State
16 where they are not currently available or are undeveloped. On
17 and after July 1, 1996, all nursing home prescreenings for
18 individuals 60 years of age or older shall be conducted by the
19 Department.
20     As part of the Department on Aging's routine training of
21 case managers and case manager supervisors, the Department may
22 include information on family futures planning for persons who
23 are age 60 or older and who are caregivers of their adult
24 children with developmental disabilities. The content of the
25 training shall be at the Department's discretion.
26     The Department is authorized to establish a system of

2 such copayment to be based upon the recipient's ability to pay
3 but in no case to exceed the actual cost of the services
4 provided. Additionally, any portion of a person's income which
5 is equal to or less than the federal poverty standard shall not
6 be considered by the Department in determining the copayment.
7 The level of such copayment shall be adjusted whenever
8 necessary to reflect any change in the officially designated
9 federal poverty standard.
10     The Department, or the Department's authorized
11 representative, shall recover the amount of moneys expended for
12 services provided to or in behalf of a person under this
13 Section by a claim against the person's estate or against the
14 estate of the person's surviving spouse, but no recovery may be
15 had until after the death of the surviving spouse, if any, and
16 then only at such time when there is no surviving child who is
17 under age 21, blind, or permanently and totally disabled. This
18 paragraph, however, shall not bar recovery, at the death of the
19 person, of moneys for services provided to the person or in
20 behalf of the person under this Section to which the person was
21 not entitled; provided that such recovery shall not be enforced
22 against any real estate while it is occupied as a homestead by
23 the surviving spouse or other dependent, if no claims by other
24 creditors have been filed against the estate, or, if such
25 claims have been filed, they remain dormant for failure of

21     selected by the Department for use statewide, not to exceed
22     the total monthly service cost maximum allowed for each
23     service; the . The Department shall develop administrative

1         the time of placement, the Department shall consider
2         concurrent planning, as described in subsection (l-1)
3         of this Section so that permanency may occur at the

6         placement made is the best available placement to
7         provide permanency for the child;
8             (G) (blank);
9             (H) (blank); and
10             (I) placing and maintaining children in facilities

14         last year of high school education or vocational
15         training, in an approved individual or group treatment
16         program, in a licensed shelter facility, or secure
17         child care facility. The Department is not required to

3     (b) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize
4 the expenditure of public funds for the purpose of performing
5 abortions.
6     (c) The Department shall establish and maintain
7 tax-supported child welfare services and extend and seek to
8 improve voluntary services throughout the State, to the end
9 that services and care shall be available on an equal basis
10 throughout the State to children requiring such services.
11     (d) The Director may authorize advance disbursements for
12 any new program initiative to any agency contracting with the
13 Department. As a prerequisite for an advance disbursement, the
14 contractor must post a surety bond in the amount of the advance
15 disbursement and have a purchase of service contract approved
16 by the Department. The Department may pay up to 2 months
17 operational expenses in advance. The amount of the advance
18 disbursement shall be prorated over the life of the contract or
19 the remaining months of the fiscal year, whichever is less, and
20 the installment amount shall then be deducted from future
21 bills. Advance disbursement authorizations for new initiatives
22 shall not be made to any agency after that agency has operated
23 during 2 consecutive fiscal years. The requirements of this
24 Section concerning advance disbursements shall not apply with
25 respect to the following: payments to local public agencies for

22     Rules and regulations established by the Department shall
23 include provisions for training Department staff and the staff
24 of Department grantees, through contracts with other agencies

SB2023 Enrolled - 62 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 the Department of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse, for the
2 purpose of identifying children and adults who should be
3 referred to an alcohol and drug abuse treatment program for
4 professional evaluation.
5     (h) If the Department finds that there is no appropriate
6 program or facility within or available to the Department for a
7 ward and that no licensed private facility has an adequate and
8 appropriate program or none agrees to accept the ward, the
9 Department shall create an appropriate individualized,
10 program-oriented plan for such ward. The plan may be developed
11 within the Department or through purchase of services by the
12 Department to the extent that it is within its statutory
13 authority to do.
14     (i) Service programs shall be available throughout the
15 State and shall include but not be limited to the following

19         (3) counseling;
20         (4) parent education;
21         (5) day care; and
22         (6) emergency assistance and advocacy.

2         (4) in-home health services.
3     The Department shall provide transportation for any of the
4 services it makes available to children or families or for

6     (j) The Department may provide categories of financial
7 assistance and education assistance grants, and shall
8 establish rules and regulations concerning the assistance and
9 grants, to persons who adopt physically or mentally
10 handicapped, older and other hard-to-place children who (i)
11 immediately prior to their adoption were legal wards of the
12 Department or (ii) were determined eligible for financial
13 assistance with respect to a prior adoption and who become
14 available for adoption because the prior adoption has been
15 dissolved and the parental rights of the adoptive parents have
16 been terminated or because the child's adoptive parents have
17 died. The Department may continue to provide financial
18 assistance and education assistance grants for a child who was
19 determined eligible for financial assistance under this
20 subsection (j) in the interim period beginning when the child's
21 adoptive parents died and ending with the finalization of the
22 new adoption of the child by another adoptive parent or
23 parents. The Department may also provide categories of
24 financial assistance and education assistance grants, and
25 shall establish rules and regulations for the assistance and
26 grants, to persons appointed guardian of the person under

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 64 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 Section 5-7 of the Juvenile Court Act or Section 2-27, 3-28,
2 4-25 or 5-740 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 for children
3 who were wards of the Department for 12 months immediately
4 prior to the appointment of the guardian.
5     The amount of assistance may vary, depending upon the needs
6 of the child and the adoptive parents, as set forth in the
7 annual assistance agreement. Special purpose grants are
8 allowed where the child requires special service but such costs
9 may not exceed the amounts which similar services would cost
10 the Department if it were to provide or secure them as guardian
11 of the child.
12     Any financial assistance provided under this subsection is
13 inalienable by assignment, sale, execution, attachment,
14 garnishment, or any other remedy for recovery or collection of
15 a judgment or debt.
16     (j-5) The Department shall not deny or delay the placement
17 of a child for adoption if an approved family is available
18 either outside of the Department region handling the case, or
19 outside of the State of Illinois.
20     (k) The Department shall accept for care and training any
21 child who has been adjudicated neglected or abused, or
22 dependent committed to it pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act or
23 the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
24     (l) Before July 1, 2000, the Department may provide, and
25 beginning July 1, 2000, the Department shall offer family
26 preservation services, as defined in Section 8.2 of the Abused

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 65 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 and Neglected Child Reporting Act, to help families, including
2 adoptive and extended families. Family preservation services
3 shall be offered (i) to prevent the placement of children in
4 substitute care when the children can be cared for at home or
5 in the custody of the person responsible for the children's
6 welfare, (ii) to reunite children with their families, or (iii)
7 to maintain an adoptive placement. Family preservation
8 services shall only be offered when doing so will not endanger
9 the children's health or safety. With respect to children who
10 are in substitute care pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of
11 1987, family preservation services shall not be offered if a
12 goal other than those of subdivisions (A), (B), or (B-1) of
13 subsection (2) of Section 2-28 of that Act has been set.
14 Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to create a
15 private right of action or claim on the part of any individual
16 or child welfare agency.
17     The Department shall notify the child and his family of the
18 Department's responsibility to offer and provide family
19 preservation services as identified in the service plan. The
20 child and his family shall be eligible for services as soon as
21 the report is determined to be "indicated". The Department may
22 offer services to any child or family with respect to whom a
23 report of suspected child abuse or neglect has been filed,
24 prior to concluding its investigation under Section 7.12 of the
25 Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. However, the child's
26 or family's willingness to accept services shall not be

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 66 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 considered in the investigation. The Department may also
2 provide services to any child or family who is the subject of
3 any report of suspected child abuse or neglect or may refer
4 such child or family to services available from other agencies
5 in the community, even if the report is determined to be
6 unfounded, if the conditions in the child's or family's home
7 are reasonably likely to subject the child or family to future
8 reports of suspected child abuse or neglect. Acceptance of such
9 services shall be voluntary.
10     The Department may, at its discretion except for those
11 children also adjudicated neglected or dependent, accept for
12 care and training any child who has been adjudicated addicted,
13 as a truant minor in need of supervision or as a minor
14 requiring authoritative intervention, under the Juvenile Court
15 Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, but no such child shall
16 be committed to the Department by any court without the
17 approval of the Department. A minor charged with a criminal
18 offense under the Criminal Code of 1961 or adjudicated
19 delinquent shall not be placed in the custody of or committed
20 to the Department by any court, except a minor less than 13
21 years of age committed to the Department under Section 5-710 of
22 the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
23     (l-1) The legislature recognizes that the best interests of
24 the child require that the child be placed in the most
25 permanent living arrangement as soon as is practically
26 possible. To achieve this goal, the legislature directs the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 67 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 Department of Children and Family Services to conduct
2 concurrent planning so that permanency may occur at the
3 earliest opportunity. Permanent living arrangements may
4 include prevention of placement of a child outside the home of
5 the family when the child can be cared for at home without
6 endangering the child's health or safety; reunification with
7 the family, when safe and appropriate, if temporary placement
8 is necessary; or movement of the child toward the most
9 permanent living arrangement and permanent legal status.
10     When determining reasonable efforts to be made with respect
11 to a child, as described in this subsection, and in making such
12 reasonable efforts, the child's health and safety shall be the
13 paramount concern.
14     When a child is placed in foster care, the Department shall
15 ensure and document that reasonable efforts were made to
16 prevent or eliminate the need to remove the child from the
17 child's home. The Department must make reasonable efforts to
18 reunify the family when temporary placement of the child occurs
19 unless otherwise required, pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act
20 of 1987. At any time after the dispositional hearing where the
21 Department believes that further reunification services would
22 be ineffective, it may request a finding from the court that
23 reasonable efforts are no longer appropriate. The Department is
24 not required to provide further reunification services after
25 such a finding.
26     A decision to place a child in substitute care shall be

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 68 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 made with considerations of the child's health, safety, and
2 best interests. At the time of placement, consideration should
3 also be given so that if reunification fails or is delayed, the
4 placement made is the best available placement to provide
5 permanency for the child.
6     The Department shall adopt rules addressing concurrent
7 planning for reunification and permanency. The Department
8 shall consider the following factors when determining
9 appropriateness of concurrent planning:
10         (1) the likelihood of prompt reunification;
11         (2) the past history of the family;
12         (3) the barriers to reunification being addressed by
13     the family;
14         (4) the level of cooperation of the family;
15         (5) the foster parents' willingness to work with the
16     family to reunite;
17         (6) the willingness and ability of the foster family to
18     provide an adoptive home or long-term placement;
19         (7) the age of the child;
20         (8) placement of siblings.
21     (m) The Department may assume temporary custody of any
22 child if:
23         (1) it has received a written consent to such temporary
24     custody signed by the parents of the child or by the parent
25     having custody of the child if the parents are not living
26     together or by the guardian or custodian of the child if

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 69 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     the child is not in the custody of either parent, or
2         (2) the child is found in the State and neither a
3     parent, guardian nor custodian of the child can be located.
4 If the child is found in his or her residence without a parent,
5 guardian, custodian or responsible caretaker, the Department
6 may, instead of removing the child and assuming temporary
7 custody, place an authorized representative of the Department
8 in that residence until such time as a parent, guardian or
9 custodian enters the home and expresses a willingness and
10 apparent ability to ensure the child's health and safety and
11 resume permanent charge of the child, or until a relative
12 enters the home and is willing and able to ensure the child's
13 health and safety and assume charge of the child until a
14 parent, guardian or custodian enters the home and expresses
15 such willingness and ability to ensure the child's safety and
16 resume permanent charge. After a caretaker has remained in the
17 home for a period not to exceed 12 hours, the Department must
18 follow those procedures outlined in Section 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or
19 5-415 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
20     The Department shall have the authority, responsibilities
21 and duties that a legal custodian of the child would have
22 pursuant to subsection (9) of Section 1-3 of the Juvenile Court
23 Act of 1987. Whenever a child is taken into temporary custody
24 pursuant to an investigation under the Abused and Neglected
25 Child Reporting Act, or pursuant to a referral and acceptance
26 under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 of a minor in limited

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 70 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 custody, the Department, during the period of temporary custody
2 and before the child is brought before a judicial officer as
3 required by Section 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or 5-415 of the Juvenile
4 Court Act of 1987, shall have the authority, responsibilities
5 and duties that a legal custodian of the child would have under
6 subsection (9) of Section 1-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of
7 1987.
8     The Department shall ensure that any child taken into
9 custody is scheduled for an appointment for a medical
10 examination.
11     A parent, guardian or custodian of a child in the temporary
12 custody of the Department who would have custody of the child
13 if he were not in the temporary custody of the Department may
14 deliver to the Department a signed request that the Department
15 surrender the temporary custody of the child. The Department
16 may retain temporary custody of the child for 10 days after the
17 receipt of the request, during which period the Department may
18 cause to be filed a petition pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act
19 of 1987. If a petition is so filed, the Department shall retain
20 temporary custody of the child until the court orders
21 otherwise. If a petition is not filed within the 10 day period,
22 the child shall be surrendered to the custody of the requesting
23 parent, guardian or custodian not later than the expiration of
24 the 10 day period, at which time the authority and duties of
25 the Department with respect to the temporary custody of the
26 child shall terminate.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 71 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     (m-1) The Department may place children under 18 years of
2 age in a secure child care facility licensed by the Department
3 that cares for children who are in need of secure living
4 arrangements for their health, safety, and well-being after a
5 determination is made by the facility director and the Director
6 or the Director's designate prior to admission to the facility
7 subject to Section 2-27.1 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
8 This subsection (m-1) does not apply to a child who is subject
9 to placement in a correctional facility operated pursuant to
10 Section 3-15-2 of the Unified Code of Corrections, unless the
11 child is a ward who was placed under the care of the Department
12 before being subject to placement in a correctional facility
13 and a court of competent jurisdiction has ordered placement of
14 the child in a secure care facility.
15     (n) The Department may place children under 18 years of age
16 in licensed child care facilities when in the opinion of the
17 Department, appropriate services aimed at family preservation
18 have been unsuccessful and cannot ensure the child's health and
19 safety or are unavailable and such placement would be for their
20 best interest. Payment for board, clothing, care, training and
21 supervision of any child placed in a licensed child care
22 facility may be made by the Department, by the parents or

18 are placed, shall be afforded the same procedural and appeal
19 rights as children and families in the case of placement by the
20 Department, including the right to an initial review of a

8 Department may provide special financial assistance to
9 families which are in economic crisis when such assistance is
10 not available through other public or private sources and the
11 assistance is deemed necessary to prevent dissolution of the
12 family unit or to reunite families which have been separated
13 due to child abuse and neglect. The Department shall establish
14 administrative rules specifying the criteria for determining
15 eligibility for and the amount and nature of assistance to be
16 provided. The Department may also enter into written agreements
17 with private and public social service agencies to provide
18 emergency financial services to families referred by the
19 Department. Special financial assistance payments shall be
20 available to a family no more than once during each fiscal year
21 and the total payments to a family may not exceed $500 during a
22 fiscal year.
23     (q) The Department may receive and use, in their entirety,

15 Department shall:
16         (1) Establish standards in accordance with State and

21     Department shall be responsible for keeping complete
22     records of all disbursements for each account for any
23     purpose.
24         (2) Calculate on a monthly basis the amounts paid from
25     State funds for the child's board and care, medical care

12     (r) The Department shall promulgate regulations
13 encouraging all adoption agencies to voluntarily forward to the
14 Department or its agent names and addresses of all persons who
15 have applied for and have been approved for adoption of a
16 hard-to-place or handicapped child and the names of such
17 children who have not been placed for adoption. A list of such
18 names and addresses shall be maintained by the Department or
19 its agent, and coded lists which maintain the confidentiality
20 of the person seeking to adopt the child and of the child shall
21 be made available, without charge, to every adoption agency in
22 the State to assist the agencies in placing such children for
23 adoption. The Department may delegate to an agent its duty to
24 maintain and make available such lists. The Department shall

7 facilities that care for children who are in need of secure
8 living arrangements for their health, safety, and well-being.
9 For purposes of this subsection, secure care facility shall
10 mean a facility that is designed and operated to ensure that
11 all entrances and exits from the facility, a building or a
12 distinct part of the building, are under the exclusive control
13 of the staff of the facility, whether or not the child has the
14 freedom of movement within the perimeter of the facility,
15 building, or distinct part of the building. The plan shall
16 include descriptions of the types of facilities that are needed
17 in Illinois; the cost of developing these secure care
18 facilities; the estimated number of placements; the potential
19 cost savings resulting from the movement of children currently
20 out-of-state who are projected to be returned to Illinois; the
21 necessary geographic distribution of these facilities in
22 Illinois; and a proposed timetable for development of such
23 facilities.

26 preservation services, as defined in Section 8.2 of the Abused

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 90 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 and Neglected Child Reporting Act, to help families, including
2 adoptive and extended families. Family preservation services
3 shall be offered (i) to prevent the placement of children in
4 substitute care when the children can be cared for at home or
5 in the custody of the person responsible for the children's
6 welfare, (ii) to reunite children with their families, or (iii)
7 to maintain an adoptive placement. Family preservation
8 services shall only be offered when doing so will not endanger
9 the children's health or safety. With respect to children who
10 are in substitute care pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act of
11 1987, family preservation services shall not be offered if a
12 goal other than those of subdivisions (A), (B), or (B-1) of
13 subsection (2) of Section 2-28 of that Act has been set.
14 Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to create a
15 private right of action or claim on the part of any individual
16 or child welfare agency.
17     The Department shall notify the child and his family of the
18 Department's responsibility to offer and provide family
19 preservation services as identified in the service plan. The
20 child and his family shall be eligible for services as soon as
21 the report is determined to be "indicated". The Department may
22 offer services to any child or family with respect to whom a
23 report of suspected child abuse or neglect has been filed,
24 prior to concluding its investigation under Section 7.12 of the
25 Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act. However, the child's
26 or family's willingness to accept services shall not be

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 91 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 considered in the investigation. The Department may also
2 provide services to any child or family who is the subject of
3 any report of suspected child abuse or neglect or may refer
4 such child or family to services available from other agencies
5 in the community, even if the report is determined to be
6 unfounded, if the conditions in the child's or family's home
7 are reasonably likely to subject the child or family to future
8 reports of suspected child abuse or neglect. Acceptance of such
9 services shall be voluntary.
10     The Department may, at its discretion except for those
11 children also adjudicated neglected or dependent, accept for
12 care and training any child who has been adjudicated addicted,
13 as a truant minor in need of supervision or as a minor
14 requiring authoritative intervention, under the Juvenile Court
15 Act or the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, but no such child shall
16 be committed to the Department by any court without the
17 approval of the Department. A minor charged with a criminal
18 offense under the Criminal Code of 1961 or adjudicated
19 delinquent shall not be placed in the custody of or committed
20 to the Department by any court, except a minor less than 15
21 years of age committed to the Department under Section 5-710 of
22 the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 or a minor for whom an
23 independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency exists,
24 which must be defined by departmental rule. An independent
25 basis exists when the allegations or adjudication of abuse,
26 neglect, or dependency do not arise from the same facts,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 92 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 incident, or circumstances which give rise to a charge or
2 adjudication of delinquency.
3     (l-1) The legislature recognizes that the best interests of
4 the child require that the child be placed in the most
5 permanent living arrangement as soon as is practically
6 possible. To achieve this goal, the legislature directs the
7 Department of Children and Family Services to conduct
8 concurrent planning so that permanency may occur at the
9 earliest opportunity. Permanent living arrangements may
10 include prevention of placement of a child outside the home of
11 the family when the child can be cared for at home without
12 endangering the child's health or safety; reunification with
13 the family, when safe and appropriate, if temporary placement
14 is necessary; or movement of the child toward the most
15 permanent living arrangement and permanent legal status.
16     When determining reasonable efforts to be made with respect
17 to a child, as described in this subsection, and in making such
18 reasonable efforts, the child's health and safety shall be the
19 paramount concern.
20     When a child is placed in foster care, the Department shall
21 ensure and document that reasonable efforts were made to
22 prevent or eliminate the need to remove the child from the
23 child's home. The Department must make reasonable efforts to
24 reunify the family when temporary placement of the child occurs
25 unless otherwise required, pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act
26 of 1987. At any time after the dispositional hearing where the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 93 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 Department believes that further reunification services would
2 be ineffective, it may request a finding from the court that
3 reasonable efforts are no longer appropriate. The Department is
4 not required to provide further reunification services after
5 such a finding.
6     A decision to place a child in substitute care shall be
7 made with considerations of the child's health, safety, and
8 best interests. At the time of placement, consideration should
9 also be given so that if reunification fails or is delayed, the
10 placement made is the best available placement to provide
11 permanency for the child.
12     The Department shall adopt rules addressing concurrent
13 planning for reunification and permanency. The Department
14 shall consider the following factors when determining
15 appropriateness of concurrent planning:
16         (1) the likelihood of prompt reunification;
17         (2) the past history of the family;
18         (3) the barriers to reunification being addressed by
19     the family;
20         (4) the level of cooperation of the family;
21         (5) the foster parents' willingness to work with the
22     family to reunite;
23         (6) the willingness and ability of the foster family to
24     provide an adoptive home or long-term placement;
25         (7) the age of the child;
26         (8) placement of siblings.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 94 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     (m) The Department may assume temporary custody of any
2 child if:
3         (1) it has received a written consent to such temporary
4     custody signed by the parents of the child or by the parent
5     having custody of the child if the parents are not living
6     together or by the guardian or custodian of the child if
7     the child is not in the custody of either parent, or
8         (2) the child is found in the State and neither a
9     parent, guardian nor custodian of the child can be located.
10 If the child is found in his or her residence without a parent,
11 guardian, custodian or responsible caretaker, the Department
12 may, instead of removing the child and assuming temporary
13 custody, place an authorized representative of the Department
14 in that residence until such time as a parent, guardian or
15 custodian enters the home and expresses a willingness and
16 apparent ability to ensure the child's health and safety and
17 resume permanent charge of the child, or until a relative
18 enters the home and is willing and able to ensure the child's
19 health and safety and assume charge of the child until a
20 parent, guardian or custodian enters the home and expresses
21 such willingness and ability to ensure the child's safety and
22 resume permanent charge. After a caretaker has remained in the
23 home for a period not to exceed 12 hours, the Department must
24 follow those procedures outlined in Section 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or
25 5-415 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
26     The Department shall have the authority, responsibilities

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 95 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 and duties that a legal custodian of the child would have
2 pursuant to subsection (9) of Section 1-3 of the Juvenile Court
3 Act of 1987. Whenever a child is taken into temporary custody
4 pursuant to an investigation under the Abused and Neglected
5 Child Reporting Act, or pursuant to a referral and acceptance
6 under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 of a minor in limited
7 custody, the Department, during the period of temporary custody
8 and before the child is brought before a judicial officer as
9 required by Section 2-9, 3-11, 4-8, or 5-415 of the Juvenile
10 Court Act of 1987, shall have the authority, responsibilities
11 and duties that a legal custodian of the child would have under
12 subsection (9) of Section 1-3 of the Juvenile Court Act of
13 1987.
14     The Department shall ensure that any child taken into
15 custody is scheduled for an appointment for a medical
16 examination.
17     A parent, guardian or custodian of a child in the temporary
18 custody of the Department who would have custody of the child
19 if he were not in the temporary custody of the Department may
20 deliver to the Department a signed request that the Department
21 surrender the temporary custody of the child. The Department
22 may retain temporary custody of the child for 10 days after the
23 receipt of the request, during which period the Department may
24 cause to be filed a petition pursuant to the Juvenile Court Act
25 of 1987. If a petition is so filed, the Department shall retain
26 temporary custody of the child until the court orders

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 96 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 otherwise. If a petition is not filed within the 10 day period,
2 the child shall be surrendered to the custody of the requesting
3 parent, guardian or custodian not later than the expiration of
4 the 10 day period, at which time the authority and duties of
5 the Department with respect to the temporary custody of the
6 child shall terminate.
7     (m-1) The Department may place children under 18 years of
8 age in a secure child care facility licensed by the Department
9 that cares for children who are in need of secure living
10 arrangements for their health, safety, and well-being after a
11 determination is made by the facility director and the Director
12 or the Director's designate prior to admission to the facility
13 subject to Section 2-27.1 of the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
14 This subsection (m-1) does not apply to a child who is subject
15 to placement in a correctional facility operated pursuant to
16 Section 3-15-2 of the Unified Code of Corrections, unless the
17 child is a ward who was placed under the care of the Department
18 before being subject to placement in a correctional facility
19 and a court of competent jurisdiction has ordered placement of
20 the child in a secure care facility.
21     (n) The Department may place children under 18 years of age
22 in licensed child care facilities when in the opinion of the
23 Department, appropriate services aimed at family preservation
24 have been unsuccessful and cannot ensure the child's health and
25 safety or are unavailable and such placement would be for their
26 best interest. Payment for board, clothing, care, training and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 97 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 supervision of any child placed in a licensed child care
2 facility may be made by the Department, by the parents or
3 guardians of the estates of those children, or by both the
4 Department and the parents or guardians, except that no
5 payments shall be made by the Department for any child placed
6 in a licensed child care facility for board, clothing, care,
7 training and supervision of such a child that exceed the
8 average per capita cost of maintaining and of caring for a
9 child in institutions for dependent or neglected children
10 operated by the Department. However, such restriction on
11 payments does not apply in cases where children require
12 specialized care and treatment for problems of severe emotional
13 disturbance, physical disability, social adjustment, or any
14 combination thereof and suitable facilities for the placement
15 of such children are not available at payment rates within the
16 limitations set forth in this Section. All reimbursements for
17 services delivered shall be absolutely inalienable by
18 assignment, sale, attachment, garnishment or otherwise.
19     (o) The Department shall establish an administrative
20 review and appeal process for children and families who request
21 or receive child welfare services from the Department. Children
22 who are wards of the Department and are placed by private child
23 welfare agencies, and foster families with whom those children
24 are placed, shall be afforded the same procedural and appeal
25 rights as children and families in the case of placement by the
26 Department, including the right to an initial review of a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 98 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 private agency decision by that agency. The Department shall
2 insure that any private child welfare agency, which accepts
3 wards of the Department for placement, affords those rights to
4 children and foster families. The Department shall accept for
5 administrative review and an appeal hearing a complaint made by
6 (i) a child or foster family concerning a decision following an
7 initial review by a private child welfare agency or (ii) a
8 prospective adoptive parent who alleges a violation of
9 subsection (j-5) of this Section. An appeal of a decision
10 concerning a change in the placement of a child shall be
11 conducted in an expedited manner.
12     (p) There is hereby created the Department of Children and
13 Family Services Emergency Assistance Fund from which the
14 Department may provide special financial assistance to
15 families which are in economic crisis when such assistance is
16 not available through other public or private sources and the
17 assistance is deemed necessary to prevent dissolution of the
18 family unit or to reunite families which have been separated
19 due to child abuse and neglect. The Department shall establish
20 administrative rules specifying the criteria for determining
21 eligibility for and the amount and nature of assistance to be
22 provided. The Department may also enter into written agreements
23 with private and public social service agencies to provide
24 emergency financial services to families referred by the
25 Department. Special financial assistance payments shall be
26 available to a family no more than once during each fiscal year

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 99 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 and the total payments to a family may not exceed $500 during a
2 fiscal year.
3     (q) The Department may receive and use, in their entirety,
4 for the benefit of children any gift, donation or bequest of
5 money or other property which is received on behalf of such
6 children, or any financial benefits to which such children are
7 or may become entitled while under the jurisdiction or care of
8 the Department.
9     The Department shall set up and administer no-cost,
10 interest-bearing accounts in appropriate financial
11 institutions for children for whom the Department is legally
12 responsible and who have been determined eligible for Veterans'
13 Benefits, Social Security benefits, assistance allotments from
14 the armed forces, court ordered payments, parental voluntary
15 payments, Supplemental Security Income, Railroad Retirement
16 payments, Black Lung benefits, or other miscellaneous
17 payments. Interest earned by each account shall be credited to
18 the account, unless disbursed in accordance with this
19 subsection.
20     In disbursing funds from children's accounts, the
21 Department shall:
22         (1) Establish standards in accordance with State and
23     federal laws for disbursing money from children's
24     accounts. In all circumstances, the Department's
25     "Guardianship Administrator" or his or her designee must
26     approve disbursements from children's accounts. The

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 100 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     Department shall be responsible for keeping complete
2     records of all disbursements for each account for any
3     purpose.
4         (2) Calculate on a monthly basis the amounts paid from
5     State funds for the child's board and care, medical care
6     not covered under Medicaid, and social services; and
7     utilize funds from the child's account, as covered by
8     regulation, to reimburse those costs. Monthly,
9     disbursements from all children's accounts, up to 1/12 of
10     $13,000,000, shall be deposited by the Department into the
11     General Revenue Fund and the balance over 1/12 of
12     $13,000,000 into the DCFS Children's Services Fund.
13         (3) Maintain any balance remaining after reimbursing
14     for the child's costs of care, as specified in item (2).
15     The balance shall accumulate in accordance with relevant
16     State and federal laws and shall be disbursed to the child
17     or his or her guardian, or to the issuing agency.
18     (r) The Department shall promulgate regulations
19 encouraging all adoption agencies to voluntarily forward to the
20 Department or its agent names and addresses of all persons who
21 have applied for and have been approved for adoption of a
22 hard-to-place or handicapped child and the names of such
23 children who have not been placed for adoption. A list of such
24 names and addresses shall be maintained by the Department or
25 its agent, and coded lists which maintain the confidentiality
26 of the person seeking to adopt the child and of the child shall

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 101 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 be made available, without charge, to every adoption agency in
2 the State to assist the agencies in placing such children for
3 adoption. The Department may delegate to an agent its duty to
4 maintain and make available such lists. The Department shall
5 ensure that such agent maintains the confidentiality of the
6 person seeking to adopt the child and of the child.
7     (s) The Department of Children and Family Services may
8 establish and implement a program to reimburse Department and
9 private child welfare agency foster parents licensed by the
10 Department of Children and Family Services for damages
11 sustained by the foster parents as a result of the malicious or
12 negligent acts of foster children, as well as providing third
13 party coverage for such foster parents with regard to actions
14 of foster children to other individuals. Such coverage will be
15 secondary to the foster parent liability insurance policy, if
16 applicable. The program shall be funded through appropriations
17 from the General Revenue Fund, specifically designated for such
18 purposes.
19     (t) The Department shall perform home studies and
20 investigations and shall exercise supervision over visitation
21 as ordered by a court pursuant to the Illinois Marriage and
22 Dissolution of Marriage Act or the Adoption Act only if:
23         (1) an order entered by an Illinois court specifically
24     directs the Department to perform such services; and
25         (2) the court has ordered one or both of the parties to
26     the proceeding to reimburse the Department for its

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 102 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     reasonable costs for providing such services in accordance
2     with Department rules, or has determined that neither party
3     is financially able to pay.
4     The Department shall provide written notification to the
5 court of the specific arrangements for supervised visitation
6 and projected monthly costs within 60 days of the court order.
7 The Department shall send to the court information related to
8 the costs incurred except in cases where the court has
9 determined the parties are financially unable to pay. The court
10 may order additional periodic reports as appropriate.
11     (u) In addition to other information that must be provided,
12 whenever the Department places a child with a prospective
13 adoptive parent or parents or in a licensed foster home, group
14 home, child care institution, or in a relative home, the
15 Department shall provide to the prospective adoptive parent or
16 parents or other caretaker:
17         (1) available detailed information concerning the
18     child's educational and health history, copies of
19     immunization records (including insurance and medical card
20     information), a history of the child's previous
21     placements, if any, and reasons for placement changes
22     excluding any information that identifies or reveals the
23     location of any previous caretaker;
24         (2) a copy of the child's portion of the client service
25     plan, including any visitation arrangement, and all
26     amendments or revisions to it as related to the child; and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 103 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         (3) information containing details of the child's
2     individualized educational plan when the child is
3     receiving special education services.
4     The caretaker shall be informed of any known social or
5 behavioral information (including, but not limited to,
6 criminal background, fire setting, perpetuation of sexual
7 abuse, destructive behavior, and substance abuse) necessary to
8 care for and safeguard the children to be placed or currently
9 in the home. The Department may prepare a written summary of
10 the information required by this paragraph, which may be
11 provided to the foster or prospective adoptive parent in
12 advance of a placement. The foster or prospective adoptive
13 parent may review the supporting documents in the child's file
14 in the presence of casework staff. In the case of an emergency
15 placement, casework staff shall at least provide known
16 information verbally, if necessary, and must subsequently
17 provide the information in writing as required by this
18 subsection.
19     The information described in this subsection shall be
20 provided in writing. In the case of emergency placements when
21 time does not allow prior review, preparation, and collection
22 of written information, the Department shall provide such
23 information as it becomes available. Within 10 business days
24 after placement, the Department shall obtain from the
25 prospective adoptive parent or parents or other caretaker a
26 signed verification of receipt of the information provided.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 104 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 Within 10 business days after placement, the Department shall
2 provide to the child's guardian ad litem a copy of the
3 information provided to the prospective adoptive parent or
4 parents or other caretaker. The information provided to the
5 prospective adoptive parent or parents or other caretaker shall
6 be reviewed and approved regarding accuracy at the supervisory
7 level.
8     (u-5) Effective July 1, 1995, only foster care placements
9 licensed as foster family homes pursuant to the Child Care Act
10 of 1969 shall be eligible to receive foster care payments from
11 the Department. Relative caregivers who, as of July 1, 1995,
12 were approved pursuant to approved relative placement rules
13 previously promulgated by the Department at 89 Ill. Adm. Code
14 335 and had submitted an application for licensure as a foster
15 family home may continue to receive foster care payments only
16 until the Department determines that they may be licensed as a
17 foster family home or that their application for licensure is
18 denied or until September 30, 1995, whichever occurs first.
19     (v) The Department shall access criminal history record
20 information as defined in the Illinois Uniform Conviction
21 Information Act and information maintained in the adjudicatory
22 and dispositional record system as defined in Section 2605-355
23 of the Department of State Police Law (20 ILCS 2605/2605-355)
24 if the Department determines the information is necessary to
25 perform its duties under the Abused and Neglected Child
26 Reporting Act, the Child Care Act of 1969, and the Children and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 105 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 Family Services Act. The Department shall provide for
2 interactive computerized communication and processing
3 equipment that permits direct on-line communication with the
4 Department of State Police's central criminal history data
5 repository. The Department shall comply with all certification
6 requirements and provide certified operators who have been
7 trained by personnel from the Department of State Police. In
8 addition, one Office of the Inspector General investigator
9 shall have training in the use of the criminal history
10 information access system and have access to the terminal. The
11 Department of Children and Family Services and its employees
12 shall abide by rules and regulations established by the
13 Department of State Police relating to the access and
14 dissemination of this information.
15     (v-1) Prior to final approval for placement of a child, the
16 Department shall conduct a criminal records background check of
17 the prospective foster or adoptive parent, including
18 fingerprint-based checks of national crime information
19 databases. Final approval for placement shall not be granted if
20 the record check reveals a felony conviction for child abuse or
21 neglect, for spousal abuse, for a crime against children, or
22 for a crime involving violence, including rape, sexual assault,
23 or homicide, but not including other physical assault or
24 battery, or if there is a felony conviction for physical
25 assault, battery, or a drug-related offense committed within
26 the past 5 years.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 106 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     (v-2) Prior to final approval for placement of a child, the
2 Department shall check its child abuse and neglect registry for
3 information concerning prospective foster and adoptive
4 parents, and any adult living in the home. If any prospective
5 foster or adoptive parent or other adult living in the home has
6 resided in another state in the preceding 5 years, the
7 Department shall request a check of that other state's child
8 abuse and neglect registry.
9     (w) Within 120 days of August 20, 1995 (the effective date
10 of Public Act 89-392), the Department shall prepare and submit
11 to the Governor and the General Assembly, a written plan for
12 the development of in-state licensed secure child care
13 facilities that care for children who are in need of secure
14 living arrangements for their health, safety, and well-being.
15 For purposes of this subsection, secure care facility shall
16 mean a facility that is designed and operated to ensure that
17 all entrances and exits from the facility, a building or a
18 distinct part of the building, are under the exclusive control
19 of the staff of the facility, whether or not the child has the
20 freedom of movement within the perimeter of the facility,
21 building, or distinct part of the building. The plan shall
22 include descriptions of the types of facilities that are needed
23 in Illinois; the cost of developing these secure care
24 facilities; the estimated number of placements; the potential
25 cost savings resulting from the movement of children currently
26 out-of-state who are projected to be returned to Illinois; the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 107 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 necessary geographic distribution of these facilities in
2 Illinois; and a proposed timetable for development of such
3 facilities.

20 outcomes on a number of measures. The 2007 State Health
21 Improvement Plan calls for increased cultural competence in

23 indicate cultural competence is an important aspect of the
24 quality of health care delivered to racial, ethnic, religious,

14 awarded by the Department to public or private health care
15 entities geographically distributed around the State; (ii) an

18 in improving the quality of health care for racial and ethnic
19 minorities. The Department may contract with a vendor with
20 experience in racial and ethnic health disparities and cultural
21 competency to conduct the evaluation and provide support for
22 the collaborative learning project. The vendor shall be a
23 not-for-profit organization that represents a partnership of
24 public, private, and voluntary health organizations that
25 focuses on prevention, development of the public health system,
26 and the reduction of racial and ethnic health disparities, and

2     resolution authorizing their issue. The notes shall be
3     issued from time to time by the Authority as funds are
4     borrowed, in the manner the Authority may determine.
5     Interest on the notes may be made payable semiannually,
6     annually or at maturity. The notes may be made redeemable,
7     prior to maturity, at the option of the Authority, in the
8     manner and upon the terms fixed by the resolution
9     authorizing their issuance. The notes may be executed in
10     the name of the Authority by the Chairman of the Authority

12     Authority by resolution may direct, shall be attested by
13     the Secretary or such other officer or officers of the
14     Authority as the Authority may by resolution direct, and be
15     sealed with the Authority's corporate seal. All such notes
16     and the interest thereon may be secured by a pledge of any
17     income and revenue derived by the Authority from the
18     project to be undertaken with the proceeds of the notes and
19     shall be payable solely from such income and revenue and
20     from the proceeds to be derived from the sale of any
21     revenue bonds for permanent financing authorized to be
22     issued under Sections 5 and 6 of this Act, and from the
23     property acquired with the proceeds of the notes.
24         Contemporaneously with the issue of revenue bonds as

3     and such interim notes shall be surrendered and canceled.
4         2. The Authority, in order further to secure the
5     payment of the interim notes, is, in addition to the
6     foregoing, authorized and empowered to make any other or
7     additional covenants, terms and conditions not
8     inconsistent with the provisions of subparagraph (a) of
9     this Section, and do any and all acts and things as may be
10     necessary or convenient or desirable in order to secure
11     payment of its interim notes, or in the discretion of the
12     Authority, as will tend to make the interim notes more
13     acceptable to lenders, notwithstanding that the covenants,
14     acts or things may not be enumerated herein; however,
15     nothing contained in this subparagraph shall authorize the
16     Authority to secure the payment of the interim notes out of
17     property or facilities, other than the facilities acquired
18     with the proceeds of the interim notes, and any net income
19     and revenue derived from the facilities and the proceeds of
20     revenue bonds as hereinabove provided.
21     (e) Convey property, without charge, to the State or to the
22 appropriate corporate agency of the State or to any public

14     No member, officer, agent or employee of the Authority, nor
15 any other person who executes interim notes, shall be liable
16 personally by reason of the issuance thereof.
17     With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued
18 under this Section either before, on, or after the effective
19 date of this amendatory Act of 1989, it is and always has been
20 the intention of the General Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond
21 Acts are and always have been supplementary grants of power to
22 issue instruments in accordance with the Omnibus Bond Acts,
23 regardless of any provision of this Act that may appear to be
24 or to have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the
25 provisions of this Section are not a limitation on the
26 supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts, and

10 the State, the Authority, any political subdivision thereof
11 (other than the Agency to the extent provided therein), any

8 behalf of the Agency pursuant to this Act and the income from
9 these revenue bonds may be free from all taxation by the State
10 or its political subdivisions, except for estate, transfer, and
11 inheritance taxes. The exemption from taxation provided by the
12 preceding sentence shall apply to the income on any revenue
13 bonds issued on behalf of the Agency only if the Authority with
14 concurrence of the Agency in its sole judgment determines that
15 the exemption enhances the marketability of the revenue bonds
16 or reduces the interest rates that would otherwise be borne by
17 the revenue bonds and that the project for which the revenue
18 bonds will be issued will be owned by the Agency or another
19 governmental entity and that the project is used for public
20 consumption. For purposes of Section 250 of the Illinois Income
21 Tax Act, the exemption of the Agency shall terminate after all
22 of the revenue bonds have been paid. The amount of the income
23 that shall be added and then subtracted on the Illinois income
24 tax return of a taxpayer, subject to Section 203 of the

5         taxable year under subsection (k) of Section 168 of the
6         Internal Revenue Code;
7             (D-16) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons,
8         or otherwise disposes of property for which the
9         taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an

19         modification under subparagraph (Z), then an amount
20         equal to that subtraction modification.

22         modification under this subparagraph only once with
23         respect to any one piece of property;

1         indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after
2         December 31, 2004, to a foreign person who would be a
3         member of the same unitary business group but for the

5         the United States is 80% or more of the foreign
6         person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
7         years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
8         who would be a member of the same unitary business
9         group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
10         under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
11         unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
12         required to apportion business income under different
13         subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
14         required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
15         extent that dividends were included in base income of
16         the unitary group for the same taxable year and
17         received by the taxpayer or by a member of the
18         taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts
19         included in gross income under Sections 951 through 964

4             income with respect to such interest; or
5                 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
6             incurred, directly or indirectly, to a foreign
7             person if the taxpayer can establish, based on a
8             preponderance of the evidence, both of the
9             following:
10                     (a) the foreign person, during the same
11                 taxable year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the
12                 interest to a person that is not a related
13                 member, and
14                     (b) the transaction giving rise to the
15                 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
16                 foreign person did not have as a principal
17                 purpose the avoidance of Illinois income tax,
18                 and is paid pursuant to a contract or agreement
19                 that reflects an arm's-length interest rate
20                 and terms; or
21                 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
22             clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
23             paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
24             agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
25             terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
26             not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or

1                 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
2             incurred, directly or indirectly, to a foreign
3             person if the taxpayer establishes by clear and
4             convincing evidence that the adjustments are
5             unreasonable; or if the taxpayer and the Director
6             agree in writing to the application or use of an
7             alternative method of apportionment under Section
8             304(f).
9                 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
10             Director from making any other adjustment
11             otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
12             any tax year beginning after the effective date of
13             this amendment provided such adjustment is made
14             pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
15             and such regulations provide methods and standards
16             by which the Department will utilize its authority
17             under Section 404 of this Act;
18             (D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
19         expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
20         computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
21         incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
22         years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
23         foreign person who would be a member of the same
24         unitary business group but for the fact that the
25         foreign person's business activity outside the United
26         States is 80% or more of that person's total business

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 204 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
2         December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
3         the same unitary business group but for the fact that
4         the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
5         from being included in the unitary business group
6         because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
7         business income under different subsections of Section
8         304. The addition modification required by this
9         subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
10         dividends were included in base income of the unitary
11         group for the same taxable year and received by the
12         taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
13         business group (including amounts included in gross
14         income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal
15         Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income under
16         Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect
17         to the stock of the same person to whom the intangible
18         expenses and costs were directly or indirectly paid,
19         incurred, or accrued. The preceding sentence does not
20         apply to the extent that the same dividends caused a
21         reduction to the addition modification required under
22         Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act. As used in this
23         subparagraph, the term "intangible expenses and costs"
24         includes (1) expenses, losses, and costs for, or
25         related to, the direct or indirect acquisition, use,
26         maintenance or management, ownership, sale, exchange,

1         or any other disposition of intangible property; (2)
2         losses incurred, directly or indirectly, from
3         factoring transactions or discounting transactions;
4         (3) royalty, patent, technical, and copyright fees;
5         (4) licensing fees; and (5) other similar expenses and
6         costs. For purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible
7         property" includes patents, patent applications, trade
8         names, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask
9         works, trade secrets, and similar types of intangible
10         assets.
11             This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
12                 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
13             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
14             indirectly, from a transaction with a foreign
15             person who is subject in a foreign country or
16             state, other than a state which requires mandatory
17             unitary reporting, to a tax on or measured by net
18             income with respect to such item; or
19                 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
20             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
21             indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
22             on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
23             following:
24                     (a) the foreign person during the same
25                 taxable year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
26                 intangible expense or cost to a person that is

5                 a principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
6                 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract

1             (D-19) For taxable years ending on or after
2         December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
3         insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
4         as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
5         paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
6         a person who would be a member of the same unitary
7         business group but for the fact that the person is
8         prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
9         included in the unitary business group because he or
10         she is ordinarily required to apportion business
11         income under different subsections of Section 304. The
12         addition modification required by this subparagraph
13         shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
14         included in base income of the unitary group for the
15         same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
16         member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
17         (including amounts included in gross income under

22         costs were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
23         accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
24         extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to

9         unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
10         required to apportion business income under different
11         subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
12         required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
13         extent that dividends were included in base income of

4                 (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
5             incurred, directly or indirectly, to a foreign

7             preponderance of the evidence, both of the
8             following:
9                     (a) the foreign person, during the same
10                 taxable year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the
11                 interest to a person that is not a related
12                 member, and
13                     (b) the transaction giving rise to the
14                 interest expense between the taxpayer and the

18                 that reflects an arm's-length interest rate
19                 and terms; or
20                 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
21             clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
22             paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
23             agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
24             terms and the principal purpose for the payment is
25             not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
26                 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 229 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1             incurred, directly or indirectly, to a foreign
2             person if the taxpayer establishes by clear and
3             convincing evidence that the adjustments are
4             unreasonable; or if the taxpayer and the Director
5             agree in writing to the application or use of an
6             alternative method of apportionment under Section
7             304(f).
8                 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
9             Director from making any other adjustment
10             otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
11             any tax year beginning after the effective date of
12             this amendment provided such adjustment is made
13             pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
14             and such regulations provide methods and standards
15             by which the Department will utilize its authority
16             under Section 404 of this Act;
17             (E-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
18         expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
19         computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
20         incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
21         years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
22         foreign person who would be a member of the same
23         unitary business group but for the fact that the
24         foreign person's business activity outside the United
25         States is 80% or more of that person's total business
26         activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 230 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
2         the same unitary business group but for the fact that
3         the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
4         from being included in the unitary business group
5         because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
6         business income under different subsections of Section
7         304. The addition modification required by this
8         subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
9         dividends were included in base income of the unitary
10         group for the same taxable year and received by the
11         taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
12         business group (including amounts included in gross
13         income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
14         Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
15         income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
16         with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
17         the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
18         indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
19         sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
20         dividends caused a reduction to the addition
21         modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of
22         this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
23         "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
24         losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
25         indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
26         ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of

2         indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
3         transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
4         copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
5         similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
6         subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
7         patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
8         marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
9         similar types of intangible assets.
10             This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
11                 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
12             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
13             indirectly, from a transaction with a foreign
14             person who is subject in a foreign country or
15             state, other than a state which requires mandatory
16             unitary reporting, to a tax on or measured by net
17             income with respect to such item; or
18                 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
19             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
20             indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
21             on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
22             following:
23                     (a) the foreign person during the same
24                 taxable year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
25                 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
26                 not a related member, and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 232 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1                     (b) the transaction giving rise to the
2                 intangible expense or cost between the
3                 taxpayer and the foreign person did not have as
4                 a principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
5                 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
6                 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
7                 or
8                 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
9             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
10             indirectly, from a transaction with a foreign
11             person if the taxpayer establishes by clear and
12             convincing evidence, that the adjustments are
13             unreasonable; or if the taxpayer and the Director
14             agree in writing to the application or use of an
15             alternative method of apportionment under Section
16             304(f);
17                 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
18             Director from making any other adjustment
19             otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
20             any tax year beginning after the effective date of
21             this amendment provided such adjustment is made
22             pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
23             and such regulations provide methods and standards
24             by which the Department will utilize its authority
25             under Section 404 of this Act;

1         December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
2         insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
3         as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
4         paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
5         a person who would be a member of the same unitary
6         business group but for the fact that the person is
7         prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
8         included in the unitary business group because he or
9         she is ordinarily required to apportion business
10         income under different subsections of Section 304. The
11         addition modification required by this subparagraph
12         shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
13         included in base income of the unitary group for the
14         same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
15         member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
16         (including amounts included in gross income under
17         Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
18         and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
19         of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
20         of the same person to whom the intangible expenses and
21         costs were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
22         accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
23         extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
24         the addition modification required under Section
25         203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act;

1         activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after

4         the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
5         from being included in the unitary business group

7         business income under different subsections of Section
8         304. The addition modification required by this
9         subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
10         dividends were included in base income of the unitary
11         group for the same taxable year and received by the
12         taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary

18         the intangible expenses and costs were directly or

3         incurred, directly or indirectly, from factoring
4         transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty,

8         includes patents, patent applications, trade names,
9         trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works,
10         trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets.
11             This paragraph shall not apply to the following:

1             (G-14) For taxable years ending on or after
2         December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
3         insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
4         as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
5         paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
6         a person who would be a member of the same unitary
7         business group but for the fact that the person is
8         prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
9         included in the unitary business group because he or
10         she is ordinarily required to apportion business
11         income under different subsections of Section 304. The
12         addition modification required by this subparagraph
13         shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
14         included in base income of the unitary group for the
15         same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
16         member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
17         (including amounts included in gross income under

20         of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
21         of the same person to whom the intangible expenses and
22         costs were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
23         accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
24         extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
25         the addition modification required under Section
26         203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act.

20         States is 80% or more of that person's total business
21         activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
22         December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of

1         business income under different subsections of Section
2         304. The addition modification required by this
3         subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
4         dividends were included in base income of the unitary
5         group for the same taxable year and received by the
6         taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
7         business group (including amounts included in gross
8         income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
9         Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
10         income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
11         with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
12         the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
13         indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding
14         sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
15         dividends caused a reduction to the addition
16         modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of
17         this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
18         "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,

1         subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
2         patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
3         marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and

5             This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
6                 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
7             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
8             indirectly, from a transaction with a foreign
9             person who is subject in a foreign country or
10             state, other than a state which requires mandatory
11             unitary reporting, to a tax on or measured by net
12             income with respect to such item; or
13                 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
14             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
15             indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
16             on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
17             following:
18                     (a) the foreign person during the same
19                 taxable year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
20                 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
21                 not a related member, and
22                     (b) the transaction giving rise to the
23                 intangible expense or cost between the
24                 taxpayer and the foreign person did not have as
25                 a principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
26                 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract

3                 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
4             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
5             indirectly, from a transaction with a foreign
6             person if the taxpayer establishes by clear and
7             convincing evidence, that the adjustments are
8             unreasonable; or if the taxpayer and the Director
9             agree in writing to the application or use of an
10             alternative method of apportionment under Section
11             304(f);
12                 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
13             Director from making any other adjustment
14             otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
15             any tax year beginning after the effective date of
16             this amendment provided such adjustment is made
17             pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department
18             and such regulations provide methods and standards
19             by which the Department will utilize its authority

1         business group but for the fact that the person is
2         prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
3         included in the unitary business group because he or
4         she is ordinarily required to apportion business
5         income under different subsections of Section 304. The
6         addition modification required by this subparagraph
7         shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
8         included in base income of the unitary group for the
9         same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
10         member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
11         (including amounts included in gross income under
12         Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
13         and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
14         of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
15         of the same person to whom the intangible expenses and
16         costs were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
17         accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
18         extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
19         the addition modification required under Section
20         203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act.
21     and by deducting from the total so obtained the following
22     amounts:

3         amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable

7             (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
8         1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
9         capital gain) for all property in respect of which such
10         gain was reported for federal income tax purposes for
11         the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for the
12         taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount of

16             (A) If the fair market value of property referred
17         to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on August
18         1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount for

20         fair market value over the taxpayer's basis (for
21         determining gain) for such property on that date
22         (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in
23         effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized

1             (B) If the fair market value of property referred
2         to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on
3         August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
4         amount for such property is that amount which bears the
5         same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of the
6         property for federal income tax purposes for the
7         taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in
8         that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the
9         property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of
10         full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding
11         period for the property.
12             (C) The Department shall prescribe such
13         regulations as may be necessary to carry out the

9     Sec. 15-170. Senior Citizens Homestead Exemption. An
10 annual homestead exemption limited, except as described here
11 with relation to cooperatives or life care facilities, to a
12 maximum reduction set forth below from the property's value, as
13 equalized or assessed by the Department, is granted for
14 property that is occupied as a residence by a person 65 years

23 the payment of property taxes. Before taxable year 2004, the

7     For land improved with an apartment building owned and
8 operated as a cooperative, the maximum reduction from the value
9 of the property, as equalized by the Department, shall be
10 multiplied by the number of apartments or units occupied by a
11 person 65 years of age or older who is liable, by contract with
12 the owner or owners of record, for paying property taxes on the
13 property and is an owner of record of a legal or equitable
14 interest in the cooperative apartment building, other than a
15 leasehold interest. For land improved with a life care
16 facility, the maximum reduction from the value of the property,

19 age or older, irrespective of any legal, equitable, or
20 leasehold interest in the facility, who are liable, under a
21 contract with the owner or owners of record of the facility,

5 a facility, as defined in Section 2 of the Life Care Facilities
6 Act, with which the applicant for the homestead exemption has a

10 resident of a facility licensed under the Nursing Home Care
11 Act, the exemption shall continue so long as the residence
12 continues to be occupied by the qualifying person's spouse if
13 the spouse is 65 years of age or older, or if the residence
14 remains unoccupied but is still owned by the person qualified
15 for the homestead exemption.
16     A person who will be 65 years of age during the current
17 assessment year shall be eligible to apply for the homestead
18 exemption during that assessment year. Application shall be
19 made during the application period in effect for the county of
20 his residence.

7     The assessor or chief county assessment officer may
8 determine the eligibility of a life care facility to receive
9 the benefits provided by this Section, by affidavit,
10 application, visual inspection, questionnaire or other
11 reasonable methods in order to insure that the tax savings
12 resulting from the exemption are credited by the management
13 firm to the apportioned tax liability of each qualifying
14 resident. The assessor may request reasonable proof that the
15 management firm has so credited the exemption.
16     The chief county assessment officer of each county with
17 less than 3,000,000 inhabitants shall provide to each person
18 allowed a homestead exemption under this Section a form to
19 designate any other person to receive a duplicate of any notice
20 of delinquency in the payment of taxes assessed and levied

3 other provision of this Code to the contrary, the filing of
4 such an executed designation requires the county collector to
5 provide duplicate notices as indicated by the designation. A
6 designation may be rescinded by the person who executed such
7 designation at any time, in the manner and form required by the
8 chief county assessment officer.
9     The assessor or chief county assessment officer may
10 determine the eligibility of residential property to receive
11 the homestead exemption provided by this Section by
12 application, visual inspection, questionnaire or other
13 reasonable methods. The determination shall be made in
14 accordance with guidelines established by the Department.
15     In counties with less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, the
16 county board may by resolution provide that if a person has
17 been granted a homestead exemption under this Section, the
18 person qualifying need not reapply for the exemption.
19     In counties with less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, if the
20 assessor or chief county assessment officer requires annual
21 application for verification of eligibility for an exemption
22 once granted under this Section, the application shall be
23 mailed to the taxpayer.
24     The assessor or chief county assessment officer shall

9 Municipal Code, previously established under the Industrial
10 Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois Municipal Code, previously
11 established under the Economic Development Project Area Tax
12 Increment Act of 1995, or previously established under the
13 Economic Development Area Tax Increment Allocation Act, of each
14 taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property in the
15 redevelopment project area over and above the initial equalized
16 assessed value of each property in the redevelopment project
17 area. For the taxes which are extended for the 1997 levy year,
18 the recovered tax increment value for a non-home rule taxing
19 district that first became subject to this Law for the 1995
20 levy year because a majority of its 1994 equalized assessed
21 value was in an affected county or counties shall be increased
22 if a municipality terminated the designation of an area in 1993
23 as a redevelopment project area previously established under
24 the Tax Increment Allocation Development Act in the Illinois
25 Municipal Code, previously established under the Industrial
26 Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois Municipal Code, or previously

6 redevelopment project area. In the first year after a
7 municipality removes a taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of
8 real property from a redevelopment project area established
9 under the Tax Increment Allocation Development Act in the
10 Illinois Municipal Code, the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law in
11 the Illinois Municipal Code, or the Economic Development Area
12 Tax Increment Allocation Act, "recovered tax increment value"
13 means the amount of the current year's equalized assessed value
14 of each taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property
15 removed from the redevelopment project area over and above the
16 initial equalized assessed value of that real property before
17 removal from the redevelopment project area.
18     Except as otherwise provided in this Section, "limiting
19 rate" means a fraction the numerator of which is the last
20 preceding aggregate extension base times an amount equal to one
21 plus the extension limitation defined in this Section and the
22 denominator of which is the current year's equalized assessed
23 value of all real property in the territory under the
24 jurisdiction of the taxing district during the prior levy year.
25 For those taxing districts that reduced their aggregate
26 extension for the last preceding levy year, the highest

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 366 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 aggregate extension in any of the last 3 preceding levy years
2 shall be used for the purpose of computing the limiting rate.
3 The denominator shall not include new property or the recovered
4 tax increment value. If a new rate, a rate decrease, or a
5 limiting rate increase has been approved at an election held
6 after March 21, 2006, then (i) the otherwise applicable
7 limiting rate shall be increased by the amount of the new rate
8 or shall be reduced by the amount of the rate decrease, as the
9 case may be, or (ii) in the case of a limiting rate increase,
10 the limiting rate shall be equal to the rate set forth in the
11 proposition approved by the voters for each of the years
12 specified in the proposition, after which the limiting rate of
13 the taxing district shall be calculated as otherwise provided.

15         (3) For each company newly identified in item (1) of
16     this subsection (c) that has active business operations,

2     (c), that company ceases scrutinized business operations,
3     the company shall be removed from the scrutinized companies
4     list and the provisions of this Section shall cease to
5     apply to it unless it resumes scrutinized business
6     operations. If, within 90 days after the retirement

8     scrutinized active business operations to inactive
9     business operations, the company is subject to all
10     provisions relating thereto.
11     (d) If, after 90 days following the retirement system's
12 first engagement with a company pursuant to subsection (c), the
13 company continues to have scrutinized active business
14 operations, and only while such company continues to have
15 scrutinized active business operations, the retirement system
16 shall sell, redeem, divest, or withdraw all publicly traded
17 securities of the company, except as provided in paragraph (f),
18 from the retirement system's assets under management within 12
19 months after the company's most recent appearance on the
20 scrutinized companies list.
21     If a company that ceased scrutinized active business
22 operations following engagement pursuant to subsection (c)
23 resumes such operations, this subsection (d) immediately
24 applies, and the retirement system shall send a written notice
25 to the company. The company shall also be immediately

10 paragraphs (d) and (e) do not apply to indirect holdings in a
11 private market fund. However, the retirement system shall

13 containing companies that have scrutinized active business
14 operations requesting that they consider removing the
15 companies from the fund or create a similar actively managed
16 fund having indirect holdings devoid of the companies. If the

20     through legislation or executive order, declares that
21     mandatory divestment of the type provided for in this
22     Section interferes with the conduct of United States
23     foreign policy.
24     (j) With respect to actions taken in compliance with this
25 Act, including all good-faith determinations regarding

1 exempt from any conflicting statutory or common law
2 obligations, including any fiduciary duties under this Article
3 and any obligations with respect to choice of asset managers,
4 investment funds, or investments for the retirement system's
5 securities portfolios.
6     (k) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section to
7 the contrary, the retirement system may cease divesting from
8 scrutinized companies pursuant to subsection (d) or reinvest in
9 scrutinized companies from which it divested pursuant to
10 subsection (d) if clear and convincing evidence shows that the
11 value of investments in scrutinized companies with active
12 scrutinized business operations becomes equal to or less than
13 0.5% of the market value of all assets under management by the
14 retirement system. Cessation of divestment, reinvestment, or

4 policemen who die on or after the effective date: (a) A
5 policeman whose death results from injury incurred in the
6 performance of an act or acts of duty; (b) a policeman who dies
7 in service from any cause; (c) a policeman who withdraws upon

7 annuities shall be reduced pro rata so that the combined

10 considered in making such reduction. No age limitation in this
11 Section or Section 5-151 shall apply to a child who is so
12 physically or mentally handicapped as to be unable to support
13 himself or herself. Benefits payable under this Section shall
14 not be reduced or terminated by reason of any child's
15 attainment of age 18 if he is then dependent by reason of a
16 physical or mental disability but shall continue to be paid as
17 long as such dependency continues. For the purposes of this

12     Sec. 7-139. Credits and creditable service to employees.
13     (a) Each participating employee shall be granted credits
14 and creditable service, for purposes of determining the amount
15 of any annuity or benefit to which he or a beneficiary is
16 entitled, as follows:
17         1. For prior service: Each participating employee who
18     is an employee of a participating municipality or
19     participating instrumentality on the effective date shall
20     be granted creditable service, but no credits under
21     paragraph 2 of this subsection (a), for periods of prior
22     service for which credit has not been received under any
23     other pension fund or retirement system established under
24     this Code, as follows:
25         If the effective date of participation for the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 394 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     participating municipality or participating
2     instrumentality is on or before January 1, 1998, creditable
3     service shall be granted for the entire period of prior
4     service with that employer without any employee
5     contribution.
6         If the effective date of participation for the
7     participating municipality or participating
8     instrumentality is after January 1, 1998, creditable
9     service shall be granted for the last 20% of the period of
10     prior service with that employer, but no more than 5 years,
11     without any employee contribution. A participating
12     employee may establish creditable service for the
13     remainder of the period of prior service with that employer
14     by making an application in writing, accompanied by payment
15     of an employee contribution in an amount determined by the
16     Fund, based on the employee contribution rates in effect at
17     the time of application for the creditable service and the
18     employee's salary rate on the effective date of
19     participation for that employer, plus interest at the
20     effective rate from the date of the prior service to the
21     date of payment. Application for this creditable service
22     may be made at any time while the employee is still in
23     service.
24         A municipality that (i) has at least 35 employees; (ii)
25     is located in a county with at least 2,000,000 inhabitants;

1     plan for the benefit of its eligible employees may restrict
2     creditable service in whole or in part for periods of prior
3     service with the employer if the governing body of the
4     municipality adopts an irrevocable resolution to restrict
5     that creditable service and files the resolution with the
6     board before the municipality's effective date of
7     participation.
8         Any person who has withdrawn from the service of a
9     participating municipality or participating
10     instrumentality prior to the effective date, who reenters
11     the service of the same municipality or participating
12     instrumentality after the effective date and becomes a
13     participating employee is entitled to creditable service
14     for prior service as otherwise provided in this subdivision
15     (a)(1) only if he or she renders 2 years of service as a
16     participating employee after the effective date.
17     Application for such service must be made while in a
18     participating status. The salary rate to be used in the
19     calculation of the required employee contribution, if any,
20     shall be the employee's salary rate at the time of first
21     reentering service with the employer after the employer's
22     effective date of participation.
23         2. For current service, each participating employee
24     shall be credited with:
25             a. Additional credits of amounts equal to each
26         payment of additional contributions received from him

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 396 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         under Section 7-173, as of the date the corresponding
2         payment of earnings is payable to him.
3             b. Normal credits of amounts equal to each payment
4         of normal contributions received from him, as of the
5         date the corresponding payment of earnings is payable
6         to him, and normal contributions made for the purpose
7         of establishing out-of-state service credits as
8         permitted under the conditions set forth in paragraph 6
9         of this subsection (a).
10             c. Municipality credits in an amount equal to 1.4
11         times the normal credits, except those established by
12         out-of-state service credits, as of the date of
13         computation of any benefit if these credits would
14         increase the benefit.
15             d. Survivor credits equal to each payment of
16         survivor contributions received from the participating
17         employee as of the date the corresponding payment of
18         earnings is payable, and survivor contributions made
19         for the purpose of establishing out-of-state service
20         credits.
21         3. For periods of temporary and total and permanent
22     disability benefits, each employee receiving disability
23     benefits shall be granted creditable service for the period
24     during which disability benefits are payable. Normal and
25     survivor credits, based upon the rate of earnings applied
26     for disability benefits, shall also be granted if such

1     credits would result in a higher benefit to any such
2     employee or his beneficiary.
3         4. For authorized leave of absence without pay: A
4     participating employee shall be granted credits and
5     creditable service for periods of authorized leave of
6     absence without pay under the following conditions:
7             a. An application for credits and creditable
8         service is submitted to the board while the employee is
9         in a status of active employment, and within 2 years
10         after termination of the leave of absence period for
11         which credits and creditable service are sought.
12             b. Not more than 12 complete months of creditable
13         service for authorized leave of absence without pay
14         shall be counted for purposes of determining any
15         benefits payable under this Article.
16             c. Credits and creditable service shall be granted
17         for leave of absence only if such leave is approved by
18         the governing body of the municipality, including
19         approval of the estimated cost thereof to the
20         municipality as determined by the fund, and employee
21         contributions, plus interest at the effective rate
22         applicable for each year from the end of the period of
23         leave to date of payment, have been paid to the fund in
24         accordance with Section 7-173. The contributions shall
25         be computed upon the assumption earnings continued
26         during the period of leave at the rate in effect when

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 398 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         the leave began.
2             d. Benefits under the provisions of Sections
3         7-141, 7-146, 7-150 and 7-163 shall become payable to
4         employees on authorized leave of absence, or their
5         designated beneficiary, only if such leave of absence
6         is creditable hereunder, and if the employee has at
7         least one year of creditable service other than the
8         service granted for leave of absence. Any employee
9         contributions due may be deducted from any benefits
10         payable.
11             e. No credits or creditable service shall be
12         allowed for leave of absence without pay during any
13         period of prior service.
14         5. For military service: The governing body of a
15     municipality or participating instrumentality may elect to
16     allow creditable service to participating employees who
17     leave their employment to serve in the armed forces of the
18     United States for all periods of such service, provided
19     that the person returns to active employment within 90 days
20     after completion of full time active duty, but no
21     creditable service shall be allowed such person for any
22     period that can be used in the computation of a pension or
23     any other pay or benefit, other than pay for active duty,
24     for service in any branch of the armed forces of the United
25     States. If necessary to the computation of any benefit, the
26     board shall establish municipality credits for

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 399 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     participating employees under this paragraph on the
2     assumption that the employee received earnings at the rate
3     received at the time he left the employment to enter the
4     armed forces. A participating employee in the armed forces
5     shall not be considered an employee during such period of
6     service and no additional death and no disability benefits
7     are payable for death or disability during such period.
8         Any participating employee who left his employment
9     with a municipality or participating instrumentality to
10     serve in the armed forces of the United States and who
11     again became a participating employee within 90 days after
12     completion of full time active duty by entering the service
13     of a different municipality or participating
14     instrumentality, which has elected to allow creditable
15     service for periods of military service under the preceding
16     paragraph, shall also be allowed creditable service for his
17     period of military service on the same terms that would
18     apply if he had been employed, before entering military
19     service, by the municipality or instrumentality which
20     employed him after he left the military service and the
21     employer costs arising in relation to such grant of
22     creditable service shall be charged to and paid by that
23     municipality or instrumentality.
24         Notwithstanding the foregoing, any participating
25     employee shall be entitled to creditable service as
26     required by any federal law relating to re-employment

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 400 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     rights of persons who served in the United States Armed
2     Services. Such creditable service shall be granted upon
3     payment by the member of an amount equal to the employee
4     contributions which would have been required had the
5     employee continued in service at the same rate of earnings
6     during the military leave period, plus interest at the
7     effective rate.
8         5.1. In addition to any creditable service established
9     under paragraph 5 of this subsection (a), creditable
10     service may be granted for up to 48 months of service in
11     the armed forces of the United States.
12         In order to receive creditable service for military
13     service under this paragraph 5.1, a participating employee
14     must (1) apply to the Fund in writing and provide evidence
15     of the military service that is satisfactory to the Board;
16     (2) obtain the written approval of the current employer;
17     and (3) make contributions to the Fund equal to (i) the
18     employee contributions that would have been required had
19     the service been rendered as a member, plus (ii) an amount
20     determined by the board to be equal to the employer's
21     normal cost of the benefits accrued for that military
22     service, plus (iii) interest on items (i) and (ii) from the
23     date of first membership in the Fund to the date of
24     payment. The required interest shall be calculated at the
25     regular interest rate.

5         6. For out-of-state service: Creditable service shall
6     be granted for service rendered to an out-of-state local
7     governmental body under the following conditions: The
8     employee had participated and has irrevocably forfeited
9     all rights to benefits in the out-of-state public employees
10     pension system; the governing body of his participating
11     municipality or instrumentality authorizes the employee to
12     establish such service; the employee has 2 years current
13     service with this municipality or participating
14     instrumentality; the employee makes a payment of
15     contributions, which shall be computed at 8% (normal) plus
16     2% (survivor) times length of service purchased times the
17     average rate of earnings for the first 2 years of service
18     with the municipality or participating instrumentality
19     whose governing body authorizes the service established
20     plus interest at the effective rate on the date such
21     credits are established, payable from the date the employee
22     completes the required 2 years of current service to date
23     of payment. In no case shall more than 120 months of
24     creditable service be granted under this provision.
25         7. For retroactive service: Any employee who could have
26     but did not elect to become a participating employee, or

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 402 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     who should have been a participant in the Municipal Public
2     Utilities Annuity and Benefit Fund before that fund was
3     superseded, may receive creditable service for the period
4     of service not to exceed 50 months; however, a current or
5     former elected or appointed official of a participating
6     municipality may establish credit under this paragraph 7
7     for more than 50 months of service as an official of that
8     municipality, if the excess over 50 months is approved by
9     resolution of the governing body of the affected
10     municipality filed with the Fund before January 1, 2002.
11         Any employee who is a participating employee on or
12     after September 24, 1981 and who was excluded from
13     participation by the age restrictions removed by Public Act
14     82-596 may receive creditable service for the period, on or
15     after January 1, 1979, excluded by the age restriction and,
16     in addition, if the governing body of the participating
17     municipality or participating instrumentality elects to
18     allow creditable service for all employees excluded by the
19     age restriction prior to January 1, 1979, for service
20     during the period prior to that date excluded by the age
21     restriction. Any employee who was excluded from

2     he participated, with interest at the effective rate for

4     to date of payment.
5         8. For accumulated unused sick leave: A participating
6     employee who is applying for a retirement annuity shall be
7     entitled to creditable service for that portion of the
8     employee's accumulated unused sick leave for which payment
9     is not received, as follows:
10             a. Sick leave days shall be limited to those
11         accumulated under a sick leave plan established by a
12         participating municipality or participating
13         instrumentality which is available to all employees or
14         a class of employees.
15             b. Only sick leave days accumulated with a
16         participating municipality or participating
17         instrumentality with which the employee was in service
18         within 60 days of the effective date of his retirement
19         annuity shall be credited; If the employee was in
20         service with more than one employer during this period
21         only the sick leave days with the employer with which
22         the employee has the greatest number of unpaid sick
23         leave days shall be considered.
24             c. The creditable service granted shall be
25         considered solely for the purpose of computing the
26         amount of the retirement annuity and shall not be used

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 404 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         to establish any minimum service period required by any
2         provision of the Illinois Pension Code, the effective
3         date of the retirement annuity, or the final rate of
4         earnings.
5             d. The creditable service shall be at the rate of

1     the period for which credit is being transferred, plus
2     interest thereon at the effective rate for each year,
3     compounded annually, from the date of termination of the
4     service for which credit is being transferred to the date

20     (a) Except as provided in Section 45, each wireless carrier
21 shall impose a monthly wireless carrier surcharge per CMRS
22 connection that either has a telephone number within an area
23 code assigned to Illinois by the North American Numbering Plan
24 Administrator or has a billing address in this State. In the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 434 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 case of prepaid wireless telephone service, this surcharge
2 shall be remitted based upon the address associated with the
3 point of purchase, the customer billing address, or the
4 location associated with the MTN for each active prepaid
5 wireless telephone that has a sufficient positive balance as of
6 the last day of each month, if that information is available.
7 No wireless carrier shall impose the surcharge authorized by
8 this Section upon any subscriber who is subject to the
9 surcharge imposed by a unit of local government pursuant to
10 Section 45. Prior to January 1, 2008 (the effective date of
11 Public Act 95-698) this amendatory Act of the 95th General
12 Assembly, the surcharge amount shall be the amount set by the
13 Wireless Enhanced 9-1-1 Board. Beginning on January 1, 2008
14 (the effective date of Public Act 95-698) this amendatory Act
15 of the 95th General Assembly, the monthly surcharge imposed

21 imposed based upon the municipality or county that encompasses
22 the customer's place of primary use as defined in the Mobile
23 Telecommunications Sourcing Conformity Act. The surcharge
24 shall be stated as a separate item on the subscriber's monthly
25 bill. The wireless carrier shall begin collecting the surcharge
26 on bills issued within 90 days after the Wireless Enhanced

1 9-1-1 Board sets the monthly wireless surcharge. State and
2 local taxes shall not apply to the wireless carrier surcharge.
3     (b) Except as provided in Section 45, a wireless carrier
4 shall, within 45 days of collection, remit, either by check or
5 by electronic funds transfer, to the State Treasurer the amount
6 of the wireless carrier surcharge collected from each
7 subscriber. Of the amounts remitted under this subsection prior
8 to January 1, 2008 (the effective date of Public Act 95-698)
9 this amendatory Act of the 95th General Assembly, and for
10 surcharges imposed before January 1, 2008 (the effective date
11 of Public Act 95-698) this amendatory Act of the 95th General
12 Assembly but remitted after January 1, 2008 its effective date,
13 the State Treasurer shall deposit one-third into the Wireless
14 Carrier Reimbursement Fund and two-thirds into the Wireless
15 Service Emergency Fund. For surcharges collected and remitted
16 on or after January 1, 2008 (the effective date of Public Act
17 95-698) this amendatory Act of the 95th General Assembly,
18 $0.1475 per surcharge collected shall be deposited into the
19 Wireless Carrier Reimbursement Fund, and $0.5825 per surcharge
20 collected shall be deposited into the Wireless Service
21 Emergency Fund. Of the amounts deposited into the Wireless
22 Carrier Reimbursement Fund under this subsection, $0.01 per
23 surcharge collected may be distributed to the carriers to cover
24 their administrative costs. Of the amounts deposited into the
25 Wireless Service Emergency Fund under this subsection, $0.01
26 per surcharge collected may be disbursed to the Illinois

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 436 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 Commerce Commission to cover its administrative costs.
2     (c) The first such remittance by wireless carriers shall
3 include the number of customers by zip code, and the 9-digit
4 zip code if currently being used or later implemented by the
5 carrier, that shall be the means by which the Illinois Commerce
6 Commission shall determine distributions from the Wireless
7 Service Emergency Fund. This information shall be updated no
8 less often than every year. Wireless carriers are not required
9 to remit surcharge moneys that are billed to subscribers but
10 not yet collected. Any carrier that fails to provide the zip
11 code information required under this subsection (c) or any
12 prepaid wireless carrier that fails to provide zip code
13 information based upon the addresses associated with its
14 customers' points of purchase, customers' billing addresses,
15 or locations associated with MTNs, as described in subsection
16 (a) of this Section, shall be subject to the penalty set forth
17 in subsection (f) of this Section.
18     (d) Within 90 days after August 13, 2007 (the effective
19 date of Public Act 95-63) this amendatory Act of the 94th
20 General Assembly, each wireless carrier must implement a
21 mechanism for the collection of the surcharge imposed under
22 subsection (a) of this Section from its subscribers. If a
23 wireless carrier does not implement a mechanism for the
24 collection of the surcharge from its subscribers in accordance
25 with this subsection (d), then the carrier is required to remit
26 the surcharge for all subscribers until the carrier is deemed

1 to be in compliance with this subsection (d) by the Illinois
2 Commerce Commission.
3     (e) If before midnight on the last day of the third
4 calendar month after the closing date of the remit period a
5 wireless carrier does not remit the surcharge or any portion
6 thereof required under this Section, then the surcharge or
7 portion thereof shall be deemed delinquent until paid in full,
8 and the Illinois Commerce Commission may impose a penalty
9 against the carrier in an amount equal to the greater of:
10         (1) $25 for each month or portion of a month from the
11     time an amount becomes delinquent until the amount is paid
12     in full; or
13         (2) an amount equal to the product of 1% and the sum of
14     all delinquent amounts for each month or portion of a month
15     that the delinquent amounts remain unpaid.
16     A penalty imposed in accordance with this subsection (e)
17 for a portion of a month during which the carrier provides the
18 number of subscribers by zip code as required under subsection
19 (c) of this Section shall be prorated for each day of that
20 month during which the carrier had not provided the number of
21 subscribers by zip code as required under subsection (c) of
22 this Section. Any penalty imposed under this subsection (e) is
23 in addition to the amount of the delinquency and is in addition
24 to any other penalty imposed under this Section.
25     (f) If, before midnight on the last day of the third
26 calendar month after the closing date of the remit period, a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 438 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 wireless carrier does not provide the number of subscribers by
2 zip code as required under subsection (c) of this Section, then
3 the report is deemed delinquent and the Illinois Commerce
4 Commission may impose a penalty against the carrier in an
5 amount equal to the greater of:
6         (1) $25 for each month or portion of a month that the
7     report is delinquent; or
8         (2) an amount equal to the product of 1/2¢ and the
9     number of subscribers served by the wireless carrier.
10     A penalty imposed in accordance with this subsection (f)
11 for a portion of a month during which the carrier pays the
12 delinquent amount in full shall be prorated for each day of
13 that month that the delinquent amount was paid in full. Any
14 penalty imposed under this subsection (f) is in addition to any
15 other penalty imposed under this Section.
16     (g) The Illinois Commerce Commission may enforce the
17 collection of any delinquent amount and any penalty due and
18 unpaid under this Section by legal action or in any other
19 manner by which the collection of debts due the State of
20 Illinois may be enforced under the laws of this State. The
21 Executive Director of the Illinois Commerce Commission, or his
22 or her designee, may excuse the payment of any penalty imposed
23 under this Section if the Executive Director, or his or her
24 designee, determines that the enforcement of this penalty is
25 unjust.

1 contrary, nothing shall impair the right of wireless carriers
2 to recover compliance costs for all emergency communications
3 services that are not reimbursed out of the Wireless Carrier
4 Reimbursement Fund directly from their customers via line-item
5 charges on the customer's bill. Those compliance costs include
6 all costs incurred by wireless carriers in complying with
7 local, State, and federal regulatory or legislative mandates
8 that require the transmission and receipt of emergency
9 communications to and from the general public, including, but
10 not limited to, E-911.
11     (i) (e) The Auditor General shall conduct, on an annual
12 basis, an audit of the Wireless Service Emergency Fund and the

18     Carrier Emergency Fund and the Wireless Carrier
19     Reimbursement Fund.
20         (2) Whether the Commission's administrative costs
21     charged to the funds are adequately documented and are

6 business of operating a community antenna television system or
7 systems within the County and outside of a municipality, as
8 defined in Section 1-1-2 of the Illinois Municipal Code.
9     When an area is annexed to a municipality, the annexing
10 municipality shall thereby become the franchising authority
11 with respect to that portion of any community antenna
12 television system that, immediately before annexation, had
13 provided cable television services within the annexed area
14 under a franchise granted by the county, and the owner of that
15 community antenna television system shall thereby be
16 authorized to provide cable television services within the
17 annexed area under the terms and provisions of the existing
18 franchise. In that instance, the franchise shall remain in
19 effect until, by its terms, it expires, except that any
20 franchise fees payable under the franchise shall be payable
21 only to the county for a period of 5 years or until, by its
22 terms, the franchise expires, whichever occurs first. After the

1 providing cable television services within the annexing
2 municipality at the time of annexation, the annexing
3 municipality may permit that franchisee to extend its community
4 antenna television system to the annexed area under terms and
5 conditions that are no more burdensome nor less favorable to
6 that franchisee than those imposed under any community antenna
7 television franchise applicable to the annexed area at the time
8 of annexation. The authorization to extend cable television
9 service to the annexed area and any community antenna
10 television system authorized to provide cable television
11 services within the annexed area at the time of annexation
12 shall not be subject to the provisions of subsection (e) of
13 this Section.
14     (b) "Community antenna television system" as used in this
15 Section, means any facility which is constructed in whole or in
16 part in, on, under or over any highway or other public place
17 and which is operated to perform for hire the service of
18 receiving and amplifying the signals broadcast by one or more
19 television stations and redistributing such signals by wire,
20 cable or other means to members of the public who subscribe to
21 such service except that such term does not include (i) any
22 system which serves fewer than 50 subscribers or (ii) any
23 system which serves only the residents of one or more apartment
24 dwellings under common ownership, control or management, and
25 commercial establishments located on the premises of such

3 to the jurisdiction of the Illinois Commerce Commission or the
4 Federal Communications Commission in connection with
5 furnishing circuits, wires, cables or other facilities to the
6 operator of a community antenna television system.
7     (c-1) Each franchise entered into by a county and a
8 community antenna television system shall include the customer
9 service and privacy standards and protections contained in
10 Article XXII of the Public Utilities Act the Cable and Video
11 Customers Protection Law. A franchise may not contain different
12 penalties or , consumer service and privacy standards and
13 protections. Each franchise entered into by a county and a
14 community antenna television system before June 30, 2007 (the
15 effective date of Public Act 95-9) this amendatory Act of the

21     The County Board may, in the course of franchising such
22 community antenna television system, grant to such franchisee
23 the authority and the right and permission to use all public
24 streets, rights of way, alleys, ways for public service
25 facilities, parks, playgrounds, school grounds, or other
26 public grounds, in which such county may have an interest, for

1 the construction, installation, operation, maintenance,
2 alteration, addition, extension or improvement of a community
3 antenna television system.
4     Any charge imposed by a community antenna television system
5 franchised pursuant to this Section for the raising or removal
6 of cables or lines to permit passage on, to or from a street
7 shall not exceed the reasonable costs of work reasonably
8 necessary to safely permit such passage. Pursuant to
9 subsections (h) and (i) of Section 6 of Article VII of the
10 Constitution of the State of Illinois, the General Assembly
11 declares the regulation of charges which may be imposed by
12 community antenna television systems for the raising or removal
13 of cables or lines to permit passage on, to or from streets is
14 a power or function to be exercised exclusively by the State
15 and not to be exercised or performed concurrently with the
16 State by any unit of local government, including any home rule
17 unit.
18     The County Board may, upon written request by the
19 franchisee of a community antenna television system, exercise
20 its right of eminent domain solely for the purpose of granting
21 an easement right no greater than 8 feet in width, extending no
22 greater than 8 feet from any lot line for the purpose of
23 extending cable across any parcel of property in the manner
24 provided for by the law of eminent domain, provided, however,
25 such franchisee deposits with the county sufficient security to
26 pay all costs incurred by the county in the exercise of its

1 right of eminent domain.
2     Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Section,
3 this Section is not a limitation on any home rule county.
4     (d) The General Assembly finds and declares that
5 satellite-transmitted television programming should be
6 available to those who desire to subscribe to such programming
7 and that decoding devices should be obtainable at reasonable
8 prices by those who are unable to obtain satellite-transmitted
9 television programming through duly franchised community
10 antenna television systems.
11     In any instance in which a person is unable to obtain
12 satellite-transmitted television programming through a duly
13 franchised community antenna television system either because
14 the municipality and county in which such person resides has
15 not granted a franchise to operate and maintain a community
16 antenna television system, or because the duly franchised
17 community antenna television system operator does not make
18 cable television services available to such person, any
19 programming company that delivers satellite-transmitted
20 television programming in scrambled or encrypted form shall
21 ensure that devices for decryption of such programming are made
22 available to such person, through the local community antenna
23 television operator or directly, for purchase or lease at
24 prices reasonably related to the cost of manufacture and
25 distribution of such devices.
26     (e) The General Assembly finds and declares that, in order

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 449 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 to ensure that community antenna television services are
2 provided in an orderly, competitive and economically sound
3 manner, the best interests of the public will be served by the
4 establishment of certain minimum standards and procedures for
5 the granting of additional cable television franchises.
6     Subject to the provisions of this subsection, the authority
7 granted under subsection (a) hereof shall include the authority
8 to license, franchise and tax more than one cable operator to
9 provide community antenna television services within the
10 territorial limits of a single franchising authority. For
11 purposes of this subsection (e), the term:
12         (i) "Existing cable television franchise" means a
13     community antenna television franchise granted by a county
14     which is in use at the time such county receives an
15     application or request by another cable operator for a
16     franchise to provide cable antenna television services
17     within all or any portion of the territorial area which is
18     or may be served under the existing cable television
19     franchise.
20         (ii) "Additional cable television franchise" means a
21     franchise pursuant to which community antenna television
22     services may be provided within the territorial areas, or
23     any portion thereof, which may be served under an existing
24     cable television franchise.
25         (iii) "Franchising Authority" is defined as that term
26     is defined under Section 602(9) of the Cable Communications

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 450 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

2         (iv) "Cable operator" is defined as that term is
3     defined under Section 602(4) of the Cable Communications
4     Policy Act of 1984, Public Law 98-549.
5     Before granting an additional cable television franchise,
6 the franchising authority shall:
7         (1) Give written notice to the owner or operator of any
8     other community antenna television system franchised to
9     serve all or any portion of the territorial area to be
10     served by such additional cable television franchise,
11     identifying the applicant for such additional franchise
12     and specifying the date, time and place at which the
13     franchising authority shall conduct public hearings to
14     consider and determine whether such additional cable
15     television franchise should be granted.
16         (2) Conduct a public hearing to determine the public
17     need for such additional cable television franchise, the
18     capacity of public rights-of-way to accommodate such
19     additional community antenna television services, the
20     potential disruption to existing users of public
21     rights-of-way to be used by such additional franchise
22     applicant to complete construction and to provide cable
23     television services within the proposed franchise area,
24     the long term economic impact of such additional cable
25     television system within the community, and such other
26     factors as the franchising authority shall deem

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 451 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     appropriate.
2         (3) Determine, based upon the foregoing factors,
3     whether it is in the best interest of the county to grant
4     such additional cable television franchise.
5         (4) If the franchising authority shall determine that
6     it is in the best interest of the county to do so, it may
7     grant the additional cable television franchise. Except as
8     provided in paragraph (5) of this subsection (e), no such
9     additional cable television franchise shall be granted
10     under terms or conditions more favorable or less burdensome
11     to the applicant than those required under the existing
12     cable television franchise, including but not limited to
13     terms and conditions pertaining to the territorial extent
14     of the franchise, system design, technical performance
15     standards, construction schedules, performance bonds,
16     standards for construction and installation of cable
17     television facilities, service to subscribers, public
18     educational and governmental access channels and
19     programming, production assistance, liability and
20     indemnification, and franchise fees.
21         (5) Unless the existing cable television franchise
22     provides that any additional cable television franchise
23     shall be subject to the same terms or substantially
24     equivalent terms and conditions as those of the existing
25     cable television franchise, the franchising authority may
26     grant an additional cable television franchise under

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 452 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     different terms and conditions than those of the existing
2     franchise, in which event the franchising authority shall
3     enter into good faith negotiations with the existing
4     franchisee and shall, within 120 days after the effective
5     date of the additional cable television franchise, modify
6     the existing cable television franchise in a manner and to
7     the extent necessary to ensure that neither the existing
8     cable television franchise nor the additional cable
9     television franchise, each considered in its entirety,
10     provides a competitive advantage over the other, provided
11     that prior to modifying the existing cable television
12     franchise, the franchising authority shall have conducted
13     a public hearing to consider the proposed modification. No
14     modification in the terms and conditions of the existing
15     cable television franchise shall oblige the existing cable
16     television franchisee (1) to make any additional payment to
17     the franchising authority, including the payment of any
18     additional franchise fee, (2) to engage in any additional
19     construction of the existing cable television system or,
20     (3) to modify the specifications or design of the existing
21     cable television system; and the inclusion of the factors
22     identified in items (2) and (3) shall not be considered in
23     determining whether either franchise considered in its
24     entirety, has a competitive advantage over the other except
25     to the extent that the additional franchisee provides
26     additional video or data services or the equipment or

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 453 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     facilities necessary to generate and or carry such service.
2     No modification in the terms and conditions of the existing
3     cable television franchise shall be made if the existing
4     cable television franchisee elects to continue to operate
5     under all terms and conditions of the existing franchise.
6         If within the 120 day period the franchising authority
7     and the existing cable television franchisee are unable to
8     reach agreement on modifications to the existing cable
9     television franchise, then the franchising authority shall
10     modify the existing cable television franchise, effective
11     45 days thereafter, in a manner, and only to the extent,
12     that the terms and conditions of the existing cable
13     television franchise shall no longer impose any duty or
14     obligation on the existing franchisee which is not also
15     imposed under the additional cable television franchise;
16     however, if by the modification the existing cable
17     television franchisee is relieved of duties or obligations
18     not imposed under the additional cable television
19     franchise, then within the same 45 days and following a
20     public hearing concerning modification of the additional
21     cable television franchise within that 45 day period, the
22     franchising authority shall modify the additional cable
23     television franchise to the extent necessary to insure that
24     neither the existing cable television franchise nor the
25     additional cable television franchise, each considered in
26     its entirety, shall have a competitive advantage over the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 454 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     other.
2     No county shall be subject to suit for damages based upon
3 the county's determination to grant or its refusal to grant an
4 additional cable television franchise, provided that a public
5 hearing as herein provided has been held and the franchising
6 authority has determined that it is in the best interest of the
7 county to grant or refuse to grant such additional franchise,
8 as the case may be.
9     It is declared to be the law of this State, pursuant to
10 paragraphs (h) and (i) of Section 6 of Article VII of the
11 Illinois Constitution, that the establishment of minimum
12 standards and procedures for the granting of additional cable
13 television franchises as provided in this subsection (e) is an
14 exclusive State power and function that may not be exercised
15 concurrently by a home rule unit.

7 franchised pursuant to this Section for the raising or removal
8 of cables or lines to permit passage on, to or from a street

13 declares the regulation of charges which may be imposed by
14 community antenna television systems for the raising or removal

23 an easement right no greater than 8 feet in width, extending no
24 greater than 8 feet from any lot line for the purpose of
25 extending cable across any parcel of property in the manner
26 provided by the law of eminent domain, provided, however, such

1 franchisee deposits with the municipality sufficient security
2 to pay all costs incurred by the municipality in the exercise

6 available to those who desire to subscribe to such programming
7 and that decoding devices should be obtainable at reasonable
8 prices by those who are unable to obtain satellite-transmitted
9 television programming through duly franchised community
10 antenna television systems.
11     In any instance in which a person is unable to obtain
12 satellite-transmitted television programming through a duly
13 franchised community antenna television system either because
14 the municipality and county in which such person resides has
15 not granted a franchise to operate and maintain a community
16 antenna television system, or because the duly franchised
17 community antenna television system operator does not make
18 cable television services available to such person, any
19 programming company that delivers satellite-transmitted
20 television programming in scrambled or encrypted form shall
21 ensure that devices for description of such programming are
22 made available to such person, through the local community
23 antenna television operator or directly, for purchase or lease
24 at prices reasonably related to the cost of manufacture and
25 distribution of such devices.

1 to ensure that community antenna television services are
2 provided in an orderly, competitive and economically sound
3 manner, the best interests of the public will be served by the
4 establishment of certain minimum standards and procedures for
5 the granting of additional cable television franchises.
6     Subject to the provisions of this subsection, the authority
7 granted under subsection (a) hereof shall include the authority
8 to license, franchise and tax more than one cable operator to
9 provide community antenna television services within the
10 corporate limits of a single franchising authority. For
11 purposes of this subsection (e), the term:
12         (i) "Existing cable television franchise" means a
13     community antenna television franchise granted by a
14     municipality which is in use at the time such municipality
15     receives an application or request by another cable
16     operator for a franchise to provide cable antenna
17     television services within all or any portion of the
18     territorial area which is or may be served under the
19     existing cable television franchise.
20         (ii) "Additional cable television franchise" means a
21     franchise pursuant to which community antenna television
22     services may be provided within the territorial areas, or
23     any portion thereof, which may be served under an existing
24     cable television franchise.

7 the franchising authority shall:
8         (1) Give written notice to the owner or operator of any
9     other community antenna television system franchised to
10     serve all or any portion of the territorial area to be
11     served by such additional cable television franchise,
12     identifying the applicant for such additional franchise
13     and specifying the date, time and place at which the
14     franchising authority shall conduct public hearings to
15     consider and determine whether such additional cable
16     television franchise should be granted.
17         (2) Conduct a public hearing to determine the public
18     need for such additional cable television franchise, the
19     capacity of public rights-of-way to accommodate such
20     additional community antenna television services, the
21     potential disruption to existing users of public
22     rights-of-way to be used by such additional franchise
23     applicant to complete construction and to provide cable
24     television services within the proposed franchise area,
25     the long term economic impact of such additional cable
26     television system within the community, and such other

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 468 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     factors as the franchising authority shall deem
2     appropriate.
3         (3) Determine, based upon the foregoing factors,
4     whether it is in the best interest of the municipality to
5     grant such additional cable television franchise.
6         (4) If the franchising authority shall determine that
7     it is in the best interest of the municipality to do so, it
8     may grant the additional cable television franchise.
9     Except as provided in paragraph (5) of this subsection (e),
10     no such additional cable television franchise shall be
11     granted under terms or conditions more favorable or less
12     burdensome to the applicant than those required under the
13     existing cable television franchise, including but not
14     limited to terms and conditions pertaining to the
15     territorial extent of the franchise, system design,
16     technical performance standards, construction schedules,
17     performance bonds, standards for construction and
18     installation of cable television facilities, service to
19     subscribers, public educational and governmental access
20     channels and programming, production assistance, liability
21     and indemnification, and franchise fees.
22         (5) Unless the existing cable television franchise
23     provides that any additional cable television franchise
24     shall be subject to the same terms or substantially
25     equivalent terms and conditions as those of the existing
26     cable television franchise, the franchising authority may

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 469 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     grant an additional cable television franchise under
2     different terms and conditions than those of the existing
3     franchise, in which event the franchising authority shall
4     enter into good faith negotiations with the existing
5     franchisee and shall, within 120 days after the effective
6     date of the additional cable television franchise, modify
7     the existing cable television franchise in a manner and to
8     the extent necessary to ensure that neither the existing
9     cable television franchise nor the additional cable
10     television franchise, each considered in its entirety,
11     provides a competitive advantage over the other, provided
12     that prior to modifying the existing cable television
13     franchise, the franchising authority shall have conducted
14     a public hearing to consider the proposed modification. No
15     modification in the terms and conditions of the existing
16     cable television franchise shall oblige the existing cable
17     television franchisee (1) to make any additional payment to
18     the franchising authority, including the payment of any
19     additional franchise fee, (2) to engage in any additional
20     construction of the existing cable television system or,
21     (3) to modify the specifications or design of the existing
22     cable television system; and the inclusion of the factors
23     identified in items (2) and (3) shall not be considered in
24     determining whether either franchise considered in its
25     entirety, has a competitive advantage over the other except
26     to the extent that the additional franchisee provides

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 470 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     additional video or data services or the equipment or
2     facilities necessary to generate and or carry such service.
3     No modification in the terms and conditions of the existing
4     cable television franchise shall be made if the existing
5     cable television franchisee elects to continue to operate
6     under all terms and conditions of the existing franchise.
7         If within the 120 day period the franchising authority
8     and the existing cable television franchisee are unable to
9     reach agreement on modifications to the existing cable
10     television franchise, then the franchising authority shall
11     modify the existing cable television franchise, effective
12     45 days thereafter, in a manner, and only to the extent,
13     that the terms and conditions of the existing cable
14     television franchise shall no longer impose any duty or
15     obligation on the existing franchisee which is not also
16     imposed under the additional cable television franchise;
17     however, if by the modification the existing cable
18     television franchisee is relieved of duties or obligations
19     not imposed under the additional cable television
20     franchise, then within the same 45 days and following a
21     public hearing concerning modification of the additional
22     cable television franchise within that 45 day period, the
23     franchising authority shall modify the additional cable
24     television franchise to the extent necessary to insure that
25     neither the existing cable television franchise nor the
26     additional cable television franchise, each considered in

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 471 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     its entirety, shall have a competitive advantage over the
2     other.
3     No municipality shall be subject to suit for damages based
4 upon the municipality's determination to grant or its refusal
5 to grant an additional cable television franchise, provided
6 that a public hearing as herein provided has been held and the
7 franchising authority has determined that it is in the best
8 interest of the municipality to grant or refuse to grant such
9 additional franchise, as the case may be.
10     It is declared to be the law of this State, pursuant to
11 paragraphs (h) and (i) of Section 6 of Article VII of the
12 Illinois Constitution, that the establishment of minimum
13 standards and procedures for the granting of additional cable
14 television franchises by municipalities with a population less
15 than 1,000,000 as provided in this subsection (e) is an
16 exclusive State power and function that may not be exercised
17 concurrently by a home rule unit.
18     (f) No municipality may acquire, construct, own, or operate
19 a community antenna television system unless the corporate
20 authorities adopt an ordinance. The ordinance must set forth
21 the action proposed; describe the plant, equipment, and
22 property to be acquired or constructed; and specifically
23 describe the manner in which the construction, acquisition, and
24 operation of the system will be financed.
25     The ordinance may not take effect until the question of
26 acquiring, construction, owning, or operating a community

4 authorities must certify the question to the proper election
5 authority, which must submit the question at an election in
6 accordance with the Election Code.
7     The question must be submitted in substantially the
8 following form:
9         Shall the ordinance authorizing the municipality to

11 The votes must be recorded as "Yes" or "No".
12     If a majority of electors voting on the question vote in
13 the affirmative, the ordinance shall take effect.
14     Not more than 30 or less than 15 days before the date of
15 the referendum, the municipal clerk must publish the ordinance
16 at least once in one or more newspapers published in the
17 municipality or, if no newspaper is published in the

1     On and after November 1, 1999, "blighted area" means any
2 improved or vacant area within the boundaries of a
3 redevelopment project area located within the territorial
4 limits of the municipality where:
5         (1) If improved, industrial, commercial, and
6     residential buildings or improvements are detrimental to
7     the public safety, health, or welfare because of a
8     combination of 5 or more of the following factors, each of
9     which is (i) present, with that presence documented, to a
10     meaningful extent so that a municipality may reasonably
11     find that the factor is clearly present within the intent
12     of the Act and (ii) reasonably distributed throughout the
13     improved part of the redevelopment project area:
14             (A) Dilapidation. An advanced state of disrepair
15         or neglect of necessary repairs to the primary
16         structural components of buildings or improvements in
17         such a combination that a documented building
18         condition analysis determines that major repair is
19         required or the defects are so serious and so extensive
20         that the buildings must be removed.
21             (B) Obsolescence. The condition or process of
22         falling into disuse. Structures have become ill-suited
23         for the original use.
24             (C) Deterioration. With respect to buildings,
25         defects including, but not limited to, major defects in
26         the secondary building components such as doors,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 476 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         windows, porches, gutters and downspouts, and fascia.
2         With respect to surface improvements, that the
3         condition of roadways, alleys, curbs, gutters,
4         sidewalks, off-street parking, and surface storage
5         areas evidence deterioration, including, but not
6         limited to, surface cracking, crumbling, potholes,
7         depressions, loose paving material, and weeds
8         protruding through paved surfaces.
9             (D) Presence of structures below minimum code
10         standards. All structures that do not meet the
11         standards of zoning, subdivision, building, fire, and
12         other governmental codes applicable to property, but
13         not including housing and property maintenance codes.
14             (E) Illegal use of individual structures. The use
15         of structures in violation of applicable federal,
16         State, or local laws, exclusive of those applicable to
17         the presence of structures below minimum code
18         standards.
19             (F) Excessive vacancies. The presence of buildings
20         that are unoccupied or under-utilized and that
21         represent an adverse influence on the area because of
22         the frequency, extent, or duration of the vacancies.
23             (G) Lack of ventilation, light, or sanitary
24         facilities. The absence of adequate ventilation for
25         light or air circulation in spaces or rooms without
26         windows, or that require the removal of dust, odor,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 477 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         gas, smoke, or other noxious airborne materials.
2         Inadequate natural light and ventilation means the
3         absence of skylights or windows for interior spaces or
4         rooms and improper window sizes and amounts by room
5         area to window area ratios. Inadequate sanitary
6         facilities refers to the absence or inadequacy of
7         garbage storage and enclosure, bathroom facilities,
8         hot water and kitchens, and structural inadequacies
9         preventing ingress and egress to and from all rooms and
10         units within a building.
11             (H) Inadequate utilities. Underground and overhead
12         utilities such as storm sewers and storm drainage,
13         sanitary sewers, water lines, and gas, telephone, and
14         electrical services that are shown to be inadequate.
15         Inadequate utilities are those that are: (i) of
16         insufficient capacity to serve the uses in the
17         redevelopment project area, (ii) deteriorated,
18         antiquated, obsolete, or in disrepair, or (iii)
19         lacking within the redevelopment project area.
20             (I) Excessive land coverage and overcrowding of
21         structures and community facilities. The
22         over-intensive use of property and the crowding of
23         buildings and accessory facilities onto a site.
24         Examples of problem conditions warranting the
25         designation of an area as one exhibiting excessive land
26         coverage are: (i) the presence of buildings either

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 478 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         improperly situated on parcels or located on parcels of
2         inadequate size and shape in relation to present-day
3         standards of development for health and safety and (ii)
4         the presence of multiple buildings on a single parcel.
5         For there to be a finding of excessive land coverage,
6         these parcels must exhibit one or more of the following
7         conditions: insufficient provision for light and air
8         within or around buildings, increased threat of spread
9         of fire due to the close proximity of buildings, lack
10         of adequate or proper access to a public right-of-way,
11         lack of reasonably required off-street parking, or
12         inadequate provision for loading and service.
13             (J) Deleterious land use or layout. The existence
14         of incompatible land-use relationships, buildings
15         occupied by inappropriate mixed-uses, or uses
16         considered to be noxious, offensive, or unsuitable for
17         the surrounding area.
18             (K) Environmental clean-up. The proposed
19         redevelopment project area has incurred Illinois
20         Environmental Protection Agency or United States
21         Environmental Protection Agency remediation costs for,
22         or a study conducted by an independent consultant
23         recognized as having expertise in environmental
24         remediation has determined a need for, the clean-up of
25         hazardous waste, hazardous substances, or underground
26         storage tanks required by State or federal law,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 479 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         provided that the remediation costs constitute a
2         material impediment to the development or
3         redevelopment of the redevelopment project area.
4             (L) Lack of community planning. The proposed
5         redevelopment project area was developed prior to or
6         without the benefit or guidance of a community plan.
7         This means that the development occurred prior to the
8         adoption by the municipality of a comprehensive or
9         other community plan or that the plan was not followed
10         at the time of the area's development. This factor must
11         be documented by evidence of adverse or incompatible
12         land-use relationships, inadequate street layout,
13         improper subdivision, parcels of inadequate shape and
14         size to meet contemporary development standards, or
15         other evidence demonstrating an absence of effective
16         community planning.
17             (M) The total equalized assessed value of the
18         proposed redevelopment project area has declined for 3
19         of the last 5 calendar years prior to the year in which
20         the redevelopment project area is designated or is
21         increasing at an annual rate that is less than the
22         balance of the municipality for 3 of the last 5
23         calendar years for which information is available or is
24         increasing at an annual rate that is less than the
25         Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published
26         by the United States Department of Labor or successor

1         agency for 3 of the last 5 calendar years prior to the
2         year in which the redevelopment project area is
3         designated.
4         (2) If vacant, the sound growth of the redevelopment
5     project area is impaired by a combination of 2 or more of
6     the following factors, each of which is (i) present, with
7     that presence documented, to a meaningful extent so that a
8     municipality may reasonably find that the factor is clearly
9     present within the intent of the Act and (ii) reasonably
10     distributed throughout the vacant part of the
11     redevelopment project area to which it pertains:
12             (A) Obsolete platting of vacant land that results
13         in parcels of limited or narrow size or configurations
14         of parcels of irregular size or shape that would be
15         difficult to develop on a planned basis and in a manner
16         compatible with contemporary standards and
17         requirements, or platting that failed to create
18         rights-of-ways for streets or alleys or that created
19         inadequate right-of-way widths for streets, alleys, or
20         other public rights-of-way or that omitted easements
21         for public utilities.
22             (B) Diversity of ownership of parcels of vacant
23         land sufficient in number to retard or impede the
24         ability to assemble the land for development.
25             (C) Tax and special assessment delinquencies exist
26         or the property has been the subject of tax sales under

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 481 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         the Property Tax Code within the last 5 years.
2             (D) Deterioration of structures or site
3         improvements in neighboring areas adjacent to the
4         vacant land.
5             (E) The area has incurred Illinois Environmental
6         Protection Agency or United States Environmental
7         Protection Agency remediation costs for, or a study
8         conducted by an independent consultant recognized as
9         having expertise in environmental remediation has
10         determined a need for, the clean-up of hazardous waste,
11         hazardous substances, or underground storage tanks
12         required by State or federal law, provided that the
13         remediation costs constitute a material impediment to
14         the development or redevelopment of the redevelopment
15         project area.
16             (F) The total equalized assessed value of the
17         proposed redevelopment project area has declined for 3
18         of the last 5 calendar years prior to the year in which
19         the redevelopment project area is designated or is
20         increasing at an annual rate that is less than the

22         calendar years for which information is available or is
23         increasing at an annual rate that is less than the
24         Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published
25         by the United States Department of Labor or successor

1         year in which the redevelopment project area is
2         designated.
3         (3) If vacant, the sound growth of the redevelopment
4     project area is impaired by one of the following factors
5     that (i) is present, with that presence documented, to a
6     meaningful extent so that a municipality may reasonably
7     find that the factor is clearly present within the intent
8     of the Act and (ii) is reasonably distributed throughout
9     the vacant part of the redevelopment project area to which
10     it pertains:
11             (A) The area consists of one or more unused
12         quarries, mines, or strip mine ponds.

17         property in the area as certified by a registered
18         professional engineer or appropriate regulatory agency
19         or (ii) surface water that discharges from all or a
20         part of the area and contributes to flooding within the
21         same watershed, but only if the redevelopment project
22         provides for facilities or improvements to contribute
23         to the alleviation of all or part of the flooding.
24             (D) The area consists of an unused or illegal
25         disposal site containing earth, stone, building
26         debris, or similar materials that were removed from

4         vacant (notwithstanding that the area has been used for
5         commercial agricultural purposes within 5 years prior
6         to the designation of the redevelopment project area),
7         and the area meets at least one of the factors itemized
8         in paragraph (1) of this subsection, the area has been
9         designated as a town or village center by ordinance or
10         comprehensive plan adopted prior to January 1, 1982,
11         and the area has not been developed for that designated
12         purpose.
13             (F) The area qualified as a blighted improved area
14         immediately prior to becoming vacant, unless there has
15         been substantial private investment in the immediately
16         surrounding area.
17     (b) For any redevelopment project area that has been
18 designated pursuant to this Section by an ordinance adopted

1 blighted area but because of a combination of 3 or more of the
2 following factors is detrimental to the public safety, health,
3 morals or welfare and such an area may become a blighted area:
4         (1) Dilapidation. An advanced state of disrepair or
5     neglect of necessary repairs to the primary structural
6     components of buildings or improvements in such a
7     combination that a documented building condition analysis

10 into contracts in connection with a redevelopment project in a
11 redevelopment project area before June 1, 1988 completes the
12 contracts prior to June 30, 2007, then so long as the

19 2004; 30% in the State Fiscal Year 2005; 20% in the State
20 Fiscal Year 2006; and 10% in the State Fiscal Year 2007. No

15     contracts were entered into before June 1, 1988, in
16     connection with a redevelopment project in the area within
17     the State Sales Tax Boundary, the estimated dates of
18     completion of the redevelopment project and retirement of
19     obligations to finance redevelopment project costs may be
20     extended by municipal ordinance to December 31, 2013. The
21     termination procedures of subsection (b) of Section
22     11-74.4-8 are not required for these redevelopment project
23     areas in 2009 but are required in 2013. The extension
24     allowed by this amendatory Act of 1993 shall not apply to
25     real property tax increment allocation financing under
26     Section 11-74.4-8.

1         A municipality may by municipal ordinance amend an
2     existing redevelopment plan to conform to this paragraph
3     (3) as amended by Public Act 91-478, which municipal
4     ordinance may be adopted without further hearing or notice
5     and without complying with the procedures provided in this
6     Act pertaining to an amendment to or the initial approval
7     of a redevelopment plan and project and designation of a
8     redevelopment project area.
9         Those dates, for purposes of real property tax
10     increment allocation financing pursuant to Section
11     11-74.4-8 only, shall be not more than 35 years for
12     redevelopment project areas that were adopted on or after
13     December 16, 1986 and for which at least $8 million worth
14     of municipal bonds were authorized on or after December 19,
15     1989 but before January 1, 1990; provided that the
16     municipality elects to extend the life of the redevelopment
17     project area to 35 years by the adoption of an ordinance
18     after at least 14 but not more than 30 days' written notice
19     to the taxing bodies, that would otherwise constitute the
20     joint review board for the redevelopment project area,
21     before the adoption of the ordinance.
22         Those dates, for purposes of real property tax
23     increment allocation financing pursuant to Section
24     11-74.4-8 only, shall be not more than 35 years for
25     redevelopment project areas that were established on or
26     after December 1, 1981 but before January 1, 1982 and for

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 508 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     which at least $1,500,000 worth of tax increment revenue
2     bonds were authorized on or after September 30, 1990 but
3     before July 1, 1991; provided that the municipality elects
4     to extend the life of the redevelopment project area to 35
5     years by the adoption of an ordinance after at least 14 but
6     not more than 30 days' written notice to the taxing bodies,
7     that would otherwise constitute the joint review board for
8     the redevelopment project area, before the adoption of the
9     ordinance.
10         (3.5) The municipality finds, in the case of an
11     industrial park conservation area, also that the
12     municipality is a labor surplus municipality and that the
13     implementation of the redevelopment plan will reduce
14     unemployment, create new jobs and by the provision of new
15     facilities enhance the tax base of the taxing districts
16     that extend into the redevelopment project area.
17         (4) If any incremental revenues are being utilized
18     under Section 8(a)(1) or 8(a)(2) of this Act in
19     redevelopment project areas approved by ordinance after
20     January 1, 1986, the municipality finds: (a) that the
21     redevelopment project area would not reasonably be
22     developed without the use of such incremental revenues, and
23     (b) that such incremental revenues will be exclusively
24     utilized for the development of the redevelopment project
25     area.
26         (5) If the redevelopment plan will not result in

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 509 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     displacement of residents from 10 or more inhabited
2     residential units, and the municipality certifies in the
3     plan that such displacement will not result from the plan,
4     a housing impact study need not be performed. If, however,
5     the redevelopment plan would result in the displacement of
6     residents from 10 or more inhabited residential units, or
7     if the redevelopment project area contains 75 or more
8     inhabited residential units and no certification is made,
9     then the municipality shall prepare, as part of the
10     separate feasibility report required by subsection (a) of
11     Section 11-74.4-5, a housing impact study.
12         Part I of the housing impact study shall include (i)
13     data as to whether the residential units are single family
14     or multi-family units, (ii) the number and type of rooms
15     within the units, if that information is available, (iii)
16     whether the units are inhabited or uninhabited, as
17     determined not less than 45 days before the date that the
18     ordinance or resolution required by subsection (a) of
19     Section 11-74.4-5 is passed, and (iv) data as to the racial
20     and ethnic composition of the residents in the inhabited
21     residential units. The data requirement as to the racial
22     and ethnic composition of the residents in the inhabited
23     residential units shall be deemed to be fully satisfied by
24     data from the most recent federal census.
25         Part II of the housing impact study shall identify the
26     inhabited residential units in the proposed redevelopment

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 510 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     project area that are to be or may be removed. If inhabited
2     residential units are to be removed, then the housing
3     impact study shall identify (i) the number and location of
4     those units that will or may be removed, (ii) the
5     municipality's plans for relocation assistance for those
6     residents in the proposed redevelopment project area whose
7     residences are to be removed, (iii) the availability of
8     replacement housing for those residents whose residences
9     are to be removed, and shall identify the type, location,
10     and cost of the housing, and (iv) the type and extent of
11     relocation assistance to be provided.
12         (6) On and after November 1, 1999, the housing impact
13     study required by paragraph (5) shall be incorporated in
14     the redevelopment plan for the redevelopment project area.
15         (7) On and after November 1, 1999, no redevelopment
16     plan shall be adopted, nor an existing plan amended, nor
17     shall residential housing that is occupied by households of
18     low-income and very low-income persons in currently
19     existing redevelopment project areas be removed after
20     November 1, 1999 unless the redevelopment plan provides,
21     with respect to inhabited housing units that are to be
22     removed for households of low-income and very low-income
23     persons, affordable housing and relocation assistance not
24     less than that which would be provided under the federal
25     Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
26     Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 and the regulations under

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 511 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     that Act, including the eligibility criteria. Affordable
2     housing may be either existing or newly constructed
3     housing. For purposes of this paragraph (7), "low-income
4     households", "very low-income households", and "affordable
5     housing" have the meanings set forth in the Illinois
6     Affordable Housing Act. The municipality shall make a good
7     faith effort to ensure that this affordable housing is
8     located in or near the redevelopment project area within
9     the municipality.
10         (8) On and after November 1, 1999, if, after the
11     adoption of the redevelopment plan for the redevelopment
12     project area, any municipality desires to amend its
13     redevelopment plan to remove more inhabited residential
14     units than specified in its original redevelopment plan,
15     that change shall be made in accordance with the procedures
16     in subsection (c) of Section 11-74.4-5.
17         (9) For redevelopment project areas designated prior
18     to November 1, 1999, the redevelopment plan may be amended
19     without further joint review board meeting or hearing,
20     provided that the municipality shall give notice of any
21     such changes by mail to each affected taxing district and
22     registrant on the interested party registry, to authorize
23     the municipality to expend tax increment revenues for
24     redevelopment project costs defined by paragraphs (5) and
25     (7.5), subparagraphs (E) and (F) of paragraph (11), and
26     paragraph (11.5) of subsection (q) of Section 11-74.4-3, so

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 512 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     long as the changes do not increase the total estimated
2     redevelopment project costs set out in the redevelopment
3     plan by more than 5% after adjustment for inflation from
4     the date the plan was adopted.
5     (o) "Redevelopment project" means any public and private
6 development project in furtherance of the objectives of a
7 redevelopment plan. On and after November 1, 1999 (the
8 effective date of Public Act 91-478), no redevelopment plan may

10 land (i) with a golf course and related clubhouse and other
11 facilities or (ii) designated by federal, State, county, or
12 municipal government as public land for outdoor recreational
13 activities or for nature preserves and used for that purpose

20 finding that there exist conditions which cause the area to be
21 classified as an industrial park conservation area or a
22 blighted area or a conservation area, or a combination of both
23 blighted areas and conservation areas.
24     (q) "Redevelopment project costs" mean and include the sum
25 total of all reasonable or necessary costs incurred or
26 estimated to be incurred, and any such costs incidental to a

1 redevelopment plan and a redevelopment project. Such costs
2 include, without limitation, the following:
3         (1) Costs of studies, surveys, development of plans,
4     and specifications, implementation and administration of
5     the redevelopment plan including but not limited to staff

11     effective date of Public Act 91-478), no contracts for
12     professional services, excluding architectural and
13     engineering services, may be entered into if the terms of
14     the contract extend beyond a period of 3 years. In
15     addition, "redevelopment project costs" shall not include
16     lobbying expenses. After consultation with the
17     municipality, each tax increment consultant or advisor to a
18     municipality that plans to designate or has designated a
19     redevelopment project area shall inform the municipality
20     in writing of any contracts that the consultant or advisor
21     has entered into with entities or individuals that have
22     received, or are receiving, payments financed by tax
23     increment revenues produced by the redevelopment project
24     area with respect to which the consultant or advisor has
25     performed, or will be performing, service for the
26     municipality. This requirement shall be satisfied by the

1     consultant or advisor before the commencement of services
2     for the municipality and thereafter whenever any other
3     contracts with those individuals or entities are executed
4     by the consultant or advisor;
5         (1.5) After July 1, 1999, annual administrative costs
6     shall not include general overhead or administrative costs
7     of the municipality that would still have been incurred by
8     the municipality if the municipality had not designated a
9     redevelopment project area or approved a redevelopment
10     plan;
11         (1.6) The cost of marketing sites within the
12     redevelopment project area to prospective businesses,

20     limited to parking lots and other concrete or asphalt
21     barriers, and the clearing and grading of land;
22         (3) Costs of rehabilitation, reconstruction or repair
23     or remodeling of existing public or private buildings,

1     public building is to be demolished to use the site for
2     private investment or devoted to a different use requiring
3     private investment;
4         (4) Costs of the construction of public works or
5     improvements, except that on and after November 1, 1999,

9     facilities or vehicle storage, maintenance, or repair for
10     administrative, public safety, or public works personnel
11     and that is not intended to replace an existing public
12     building as provided under paragraph (3) of subsection (q)
13     of Section 11-74.4-3 unless either (i) the construction of
14     the new municipal building implements a redevelopment
15     project that was included in a redevelopment plan that was
16     adopted by the municipality prior to November 1, 1999 or
17     (ii) the municipality makes a reasonable determination in
18     the redevelopment plan, supported by information that
19     provides the basis for that determination, that the new
20     municipal building is required to meet an increase in the
21     need for public safety purposes anticipated to result from
22     the implementation of the redevelopment plan;
23         (5) Costs of job training and retraining projects,
24     including the cost of "welfare to work" programs

8     including reasonable reserves related thereto;
9         (7) To the extent the municipality by written agreement
10     accepts and approves the same, all or a portion of a taxing
11     district's capital costs resulting from the redevelopment
12     project necessarily incurred or to be incurred within a
13     taxing district in furtherance of the objectives of the
14     redevelopment plan and project.
15         (7.5) For redevelopment project areas designated (or
16     redevelopment project areas amended to add or increase the

3     is received as a result of the assisted housing units and
4     shall be calculated annually as follows:
5             (A) for foundation districts, excluding any school
6         district in a municipality with a population in excess

9         students enrolled in that school district who reside in
10         housing units within the redevelopment project area
11         that have received financial assistance through an
12         agreement with the municipality or because the

14         infrastructure improvements within the boundaries of
15         the housing sites necessary for the completion of that

1         restrictions shall apply to the reimbursement of

6             project is at or over its student capacity;
7                 (ii) the amount reimbursable shall be reduced
8             by the value of any land donated to the school

19         with reasonable evidence to support its claim for
20         reimbursement before the municipality shall be

22         district. If the school district fails to provide the
23         information during this period in any year, it shall
24         forfeit any claim to reimbursement for that year.
25         School districts may adopt a resolution waiving the
26         right to all or a portion of the reimbursement

1         otherwise required by this paragraph (7.5). By
2         acceptance of this reimbursement the school district
3         waives the right to directly or indirectly set aside,
4         modify, or contest in any manner the establishment of
5         the redevelopment project area or projects;
6         (7.7) For redevelopment project areas designated (or
7     redevelopment project areas amended to add or increase the
8     number of tax-increment-financing assisted housing units)
9     on or after January 1, 2005 (the effective date of Public
10     Act 93-961), a public library district's increased costs
11     attributable to assisted housing units located within the
12     redevelopment project area for which the developer or
13     redeveloper receives financial assistance through an
14     agreement with the municipality or because the
15     municipality incurs the cost of necessary infrastructure
16     improvements within the boundaries of the assisted housing
17     sites necessary for the completion of that housing as
18     authorized by this Act shall be paid to the library
19     district by the municipality from the Special Tax
20     Allocation Fund when the tax increment revenue is received
21     as a result of the assisted housing units. This paragraph
22     (7.7) applies only if (i) the library district is located
23     in a county that is subject to the Property Tax Extension
24     Limitation Law or (ii) the library district is not located
25     in a county that is subject to the Property Tax Extension
26     Limitation Law but the district is prohibited by any other

1     law from increasing its tax levy rate without a prior voter
2     referendum.
3         The amount paid to a library district under this
4     paragraph (7.7) shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the
5     net increase in the number of persons eligible to obtain a
6     library card in that district who reside in housing units
7     within the redevelopment project area that have received
8     financial assistance through an agreement with the
9     municipality or because the municipality incurs the cost of

16     the Total Operating Expenditures Per Capita as stated in
17     the most recent Illinois Public Library Statistics
18     produced by the Library Research Center at the University
19     of Illinois. The municipality may deduct from the amount
20     that it must pay to a library district under this paragraph
21     any amount that it has voluntarily paid to the library
22     district from the tax increment revenue. The amount paid to
23     a library district under this paragraph (7.7) shall be no
24     more than 2% of the amount produced by the assisted housing
25     units and deposited into the Special Tax Allocation Fund.

8         during that year;
9             (C) if there are not sufficient funds available in
10         the special tax allocation fund to make the payment
11         pursuant to this paragraph (11) then the amounts so due
12         shall accrue and be payable when sufficient funds are

14             (D) the total of such interest payments paid
15         pursuant to this Act may not exceed 30% of the total
16         (i) cost paid or incurred by the redeveloper for the
17         redevelopment project plus (ii) redevelopment project

SB2023 Enrolled - 526 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         for 30% in subparagraphs (B) and (D) of paragraph (11).
2             (F) Instead of the eligible costs provided by
3         subparagraphs (B) and (D) of paragraph (11), as
4         modified by this subparagraph, and notwithstanding any
5         other provisions of this Act to the contrary, the
6         municipality may pay from tax increment revenues up to

8         be occupied by low-income households and very
9         low-income households as defined in Section 3 of the
10         Illinois Affordable Housing Act. The cost of
11         construction of those units may be derived from the
12         proceeds of bonds issued by the municipality under this
13         Act or other constitutional or statutory authority or
14         from other sources of municipal revenue that may be
15         reimbursed from tax increment revenues or the proceeds
16         of bonds issued to finance the construction of that
17         housing.
18             The eligible costs provided under this

SB2023 Enrolled - 527 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         low-income households, only the low and very
2         low-income units shall be eligible for benefits under
3         subparagraph (F) of paragraph (11). The standards for
4         maintaining the occupancy by low-income households and
5         very low-income households, as defined in Section 3 of
6         the Illinois Affordable Housing Act, of those units
7         constructed with eligible costs made available under
8         the provisions of this subparagraph (F) of paragraph
9         (11) shall be established by guidelines adopted by the
10         municipality. The responsibility for annually
11         documenting the initial occupancy of the units by
12         low-income households and very low-income households,
13         as defined in Section 3 of the Illinois Affordable
14         Housing Act, shall be that of the then current owner of
15         the property. For ownership units, the guidelines will
16         provide, at a minimum, for a reasonable recapture of
17         funds, or other appropriate methods designed to
18         preserve the original affordability of the ownership
19         units. For rental units, the guidelines will provide,
20         at a minimum, for the affordability of rent to low and
21         very low-income households. As units become available,
22         they shall be rented to income-eligible tenants. The
23         municipality may modify these guidelines from time to
24         time; the guidelines, however, shall be in effect for
25         as long as tax increment revenue is being used to pay
26         for costs associated with the units or for the

1         retirement of bonds issued to finance the units or for
2         the life of the redevelopment project area, whichever
3         is later.
4         (11.5) If the redevelopment project area is located
5     within a municipality with a population of more than
6     100,000, the cost of day care services for children of
7     employees from low-income families working for businesses
8     located within the redevelopment project area and all or a
9     portion of the cost of operation of day care centers
10     established by redevelopment project area businesses to
11     serve employees from low-income families working in
12     businesses located in the redevelopment project area. For
13     the purposes of this paragraph, "low-income families"
14     means families whose annual income does not exceed 80% of
15     the municipal, county, or regional median income, adjusted
16     for family size, as the annual income and municipal,
17     county, or regional median income are determined from time
18     to time by the United States Department of Housing and
19     Urban Development.
20         (12) Unless explicitly stated herein the cost of
21     construction of new privately-owned buildings shall not be
22     an eligible redevelopment project cost.
23         (13) After November 1, 1999 (the effective date of
24     Public Act 91-478), none of the redevelopment project costs
25     enumerated in this subsection shall be eligible
26     redevelopment project costs if those costs would provide

2     operations in the redevelopment project area while
3     terminating operations at another Illinois location within
4     10 miles of the redevelopment project area but outside the
5     boundaries of the redevelopment project area municipality.
6     For purposes of this paragraph, termination means a closing
7     of a retail operation that is directly related to the
8     opening of the same operation or like retail entity owned
9     or operated by more than 50% of the original ownership in a
10     redevelopment project area, but it does not mean closing an
11     operation for reasons beyond the control of the retail
12     entity, as documented by the retail entity, subject to a
13     reasonable finding by the municipality that the current
14     location contained inadequate space, had become
15     economically obsolete, or was no longer a viable location
16     for the retailer or serviceman.
17     If a special service area has been established pursuant to
18 the Special Service Area Tax Act or Special Service Area Tax
19 Law, then any tax increment revenues derived from the tax
20 imposed pursuant to the Special Service Area Tax Act or Special
21 Service Area Tax Law may be used within the redevelopment
22 project area for the purposes permitted by that Act or Law as
23 well as the purposes permitted by this Act.

1 Section 11-74.4-8a of this Act. The Department of Revenue shall
2 certify pursuant to subsection (9) of Section 11-74.4-8a the
3 appropriate boundaries eligible for the determination of State
4 Sales Tax Increment.
5     (s) "State Sales Tax Increment" means an amount equal to

7 and servicemen, other than retailers and servicemen subject to
8 the Public Utilities Act, on transactions at places of business
9 located within a State Sales Tax Boundary pursuant to the
10 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use
11 Tax Act, and the Service Occupation Tax Act, except such
12 portion of such increase that is paid into the State and Local
13 Sales Tax Reform Fund, the Local Government Distributive Fund,
14 the Local Government Tax Fund and the County and Mass Transit
15 District Fund, for as long as State participation exists, over
16 and above the Initial Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales
17 Tax Amounts or the Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts for such
18 taxes as certified by the Department of Revenue and paid under
19 those Acts by retailers and servicemen on transactions at
20 places of business located within the State Sales Tax Boundary

22 immediately prior to the year in which the municipality adopted
23 tax increment allocation financing, less 3.0% of such amounts

1 cover its costs of administering and enforcing this Section.
2 For purposes of computing the aggregate amount of such taxes
3 for base years occurring prior to 1985, the Department of
4 Revenue shall compute the Initial Sales Tax Amount for such
5 taxes and deduct therefrom an amount equal to 4% of the
6 aggregate amount of taxes per year for each year the base year
7 is prior to 1985, but not to exceed a total deduction of 12%.
8 The amount so determined shall be known as the "Adjusted
9 Initial Sales Tax Amount". For purposes of determining the
10 State Sales Tax Increment the Department of Revenue shall for

12 retailers and servicemen on transactions located in the State
13 Sales Tax Boundary, the certified Initial Sales Tax Amounts,
14 Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts or Revised Initial Sales Tax
15 Amounts for the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax Act,
16 the Service Use Tax Act and the Service Occupation Tax Act. For
17 the State Fiscal Year 1989 this calculation shall be made by
18 utilizing the calendar year 1987 to determine the tax amounts
19 received. For the State Fiscal Year 1990, this calculation
20 shall be made by utilizing the period from January 1, 1988,
21 until September 30, 1988, to determine the tax amounts received
22 from retailers and servicemen, which shall have deducted
23 therefrom nine-twelfths of the certified Initial Sales Tax
24 Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts or the Revised
25 Initial Sales Tax Amounts as appropriate. For the State Fiscal
26 Year 1991, this calculation shall be made by utilizing the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 532 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 period from October 1, 1988, until June 30, 1989, to determine
2 the tax amounts received from retailers and servicemen, which
3 shall have deducted therefrom nine-twelfths of the certified
4 Initial State Sales Tax Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax
5 Amounts or the Revised Initial Sales Tax Amounts as
6 appropriate. For every State Fiscal Year thereafter, the
7 applicable period shall be the 12 months beginning July 1 and
8 ending on June 30, to determine the tax amounts received which
9 shall have deducted therefrom the certified Initial Sales Tax
10 Amounts, Adjusted Initial Sales Tax Amounts or the Revised
11 Initial Sales Tax Amounts. Municipalities intending to receive
12 a distribution of State Sales Tax Increment must report a list
13 of retailers to the Department of Revenue by October 31, 1988
14 and by July 31, of each year thereafter.
15     (t) "Taxing districts" means counties, townships, cities
16 and incorporated towns and villages, school, road, park,
17 sanitary, mosquito abatement, forest preserve, public health,

19 and any other municipal corporations or districts with the
20 power to levy taxes.
21     (u) "Taxing districts' capital costs" means those costs of
22 taxing districts for capital improvements that are found by the
23 municipal corporate authorities to be necessary and directly
24 result from the redevelopment project.

26 Act, "vacant land" means any parcel or combination of parcels

2 residential buildings which has not been used for commercial
3 agricultural purposes within 5 years prior to the designation
4 of the redevelopment project area, unless the parcel is
5 included in an industrial park conservation area or the parcel
6 has been subdivided; provided that if the parcel was part of a
7 larger tract that has been divided into 3 or more smaller
8 tracts that were accepted for recording during the period from
9 1950 to 1990, then the parcel shall be deemed to have been
10 subdivided, and all proceedings and actions of the municipality
11 taken in that connection with respect to any previously
12 approved or designated redevelopment project area or amended
13 redevelopment project area are hereby validated and hereby
14 declared to be legally sufficient for all purposes of this Act.
15 For purposes of this Section and only for land subject to the
16 subdivision requirements of the Plat Act, land is subdivided
17 when the original plat of the proposed Redevelopment Project
18 Area or relevant portion thereof has been properly certified,
19 acknowledged, approved, and recorded or filed in accordance
20 with the Plat Act and a preliminary plat, if any, for any
21 subsequent phases of the proposed Redevelopment Project Area or

2 the Annual Total Increment of each municipality to the Annual
3 Total Increment for all municipalities, as most recently
4 calculated by the Department, shall determine the proportional
5 shares of the Illinois Tax Increment Fund to be distributed to
6 each municipality.

17     Sec. 11-74.4-7. Obligations secured by the special tax
18 allocation fund set forth in Section 11-74.4-8 for the
19 redevelopment project area may be issued to provide for
20 redevelopment project costs. Such obligations, when so issued,
21 shall be retired in the manner provided in the ordinance
22 authorizing the issuance of such obligations by the receipts of
23 taxes levied as specified in Section 11-74.4-9 against the
24 taxable property included in the area, by revenues as specified
25 by Section 11-74.4-8a and other revenue designated by the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 535 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 municipality. A municipality may in the ordinance pledge all or
2 any part of the funds in and to be deposited in the special tax
3 allocation fund created pursuant to Section 11-74.4-8 to the
4 payment of the redevelopment project costs and obligations. Any
5 pledge of funds in the special tax allocation fund shall
6 provide for distribution to the taxing districts and to the
7 Illinois Department of Revenue of moneys not required, pledged,
8 earmarked, or otherwise designated for payment and securing of
9 the obligations and anticipated redevelopment project costs
10 and such excess funds shall be calculated annually and deemed
11 to be "surplus" funds. In the event a municipality only applies
12 or pledges a portion of the funds in the special tax allocation
13 fund for the payment or securing of anticipated redevelopment
14 project costs or of obligations, any such funds remaining in
15 the special tax allocation fund after complying with the
16 requirements of the application or pledge, shall also be
17 calculated annually and deemed "surplus" funds. All surplus
18 funds in the special tax allocation fund shall be distributed
19 annually within 180 days after the close of the municipality's
20 fiscal year by being paid by the municipal treasurer to the
21 County Collector, to the Department of Revenue and to the
22 municipality in direct proportion to the tax incremental
23 revenue received as a result of an increase in the equalized
24 assessed value of property in the redevelopment project area,
25 tax incremental revenue received from the State and tax
26 incremental revenue received from the municipality, but not to

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 536 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 exceed as to each such source the total incremental revenue
2 received from that source. The County Collector shall
3 thereafter make distribution to the respective taxing
4 districts in the same manner and proportion as the most recent
5 distribution by the county collector to the affected districts
6 of real property taxes from real property in the redevelopment
7 project area.
8     Without limiting the foregoing in this Section, the
9 municipality may in addition to obligations secured by the
10 special tax allocation fund pledge for a period not greater
11 than the term of the obligations towards payment of such
12 obligations any part or any combination of the following: (a)
13 net revenues of all or part of any redevelopment project; (b)
14 taxes levied and collected on any or all property in the
15 municipality; (c) the full faith and credit of the
16 municipality; (d) a mortgage on part or all of the
17 redevelopment project; or (e) any other taxes or anticipated
18 receipts that the municipality may lawfully pledge.
19     Such obligations may be issued in one or more series
20 bearing interest at such rate or rates as the corporate
21 authorities of the municipality shall determine by ordinance.
22 Such obligations shall bear such date or dates, mature at such
23 time or times not exceeding 20 years from their respective
24 dates, be in such denomination, carry such registration
25 privileges, be executed in such manner, be payable in such
26 medium of payment at such place or places, contain such

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 537 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 covenants, terms and conditions, and be subject to redemption
2 as such ordinance shall provide. Obligations issued pursuant to
3 this Act may be sold at public or private sale at such price as
4 shall be determined by the corporate authorities of the
5 municipalities. No referendum approval of the electors shall be
6 required as a condition to the issuance of obligations pursuant
7 to this Division except as provided in this Section.
8     In the event the municipality authorizes issuance of
9 obligations pursuant to the authority of this Division secured
10 by the full faith and credit of the municipality, which
11 obligations are other than obligations which may be issued
12 under home rule powers provided by Article VII, Section 6 of
13 the Illinois Constitution, or pledges taxes pursuant to (b) or
14 (c) of the second paragraph of this section, the ordinance
15 authorizing the issuance of such obligations or pledging such
16 taxes shall be published within 10 days after such ordinance
17 has been passed in one or more newspapers, with general
18 circulation within such municipality. The publication of the
19 ordinance shall be accompanied by a notice of (1) the specific
20 number of voters required to sign a petition requesting the
21 question of the issuance of such obligations or pledging taxes
22 to be submitted to the electors; (2) the time in which such
23 petition must be filed; and (3) the date of the prospective
24 referendum. The municipal clerk shall provide a petition form
25 to any individual requesting one.
26     If no petition is filed with the municipal clerk, as

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 538 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 hereinafter provided in this Section, within 30 days after the
2 publication of the ordinance, the ordinance shall be in effect.
3 But, if within that 30 day period a petition is filed with the
4 municipal clerk, signed by electors in the municipality
5 numbering 10% or more of the number of registered voters in the
6 municipality, asking that the question of issuing obligations
7 using full faith and credit of the municipality as security for
8 the cost of paying for redevelopment project costs, or of
9 pledging taxes for the payment of such obligations, or both, be
10 submitted to the electors of the municipality, the corporate
11 authorities of the municipality shall call a special election
12 in the manner provided by law to vote upon that question, or,
13 if a general, State or municipal election is to be held within
14 a period of not less than 30 or more than 90 days from the date
15 such petition is filed, shall submit the question at the next
16 general, State or municipal election. If it appears upon the
17 canvass of the election by the corporate authorities that a
18 majority of electors voting upon the question voted in favor
19 thereof, the ordinance shall be in effect, but if a majority of
20 the electors voting upon the question are not in favor thereof,
21 the ordinance shall not take effect.
22     The ordinance authorizing the obligations may provide that
23 the obligations shall contain a recital that they are issued
24 pursuant to this Division, which recital shall be conclusive
25 evidence of their validity and of the regularity of their
26 issuance.

1     In the event the municipality authorizes issuance of
2 obligations pursuant to this Section secured by the full faith
3 and credit of the municipality, the ordinance authorizing the
4 obligations may provide for the levy and collection of a direct
5 annual tax upon all taxable property within the municipality
6 sufficient to pay the principal thereof and interest thereon as
7 it matures, which levy may be in addition to and exclusive of
8 the maximum of all other taxes authorized to be levied by the
9 municipality, which levy, however, shall be abated to the
10 extent that monies from other sources are available for payment
11 of the obligations and the municipality certifies the amount of
12 said monies available to the county clerk.
13     A certified copy of such ordinance shall be filed with the
14 county clerk of each county in which any portion of the
15 municipality is situated, and shall constitute the authority

4 treasurer its proportionate share of any aggregate
5 compensation that, were the office of township treasurer not
6 abolished at that time, would have been payable to the former
7 township treasurer after that date over the remainder of the
8 term of the contract of the former township treasurer that
9 began prior to but ends after that date. In addition, on the
10 date that the offices of township treasurer and trustee of
11 schools of a township are deemed abolished as provided in this
12 subsection, the school board of each elementary school, high
13 school and unit school district that until that date is subject
14 to the jurisdiction and authority of the township treasurer and
15 trustees of schools of that township shall be deemed by
16 operation of law to have agreed and assumed to pay and, when
17 determined, shall pay to the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund
18 a proportionate share of the unfunded liability existing in

9 and unit school district under the jurisdiction and authority
10 of a township treasurer and trustees of schools of a township
11 in which those offices are abolished as provided in this
12 subsection, each such district's proportionate share of the

14 treasurer as provided in this paragraph and each such
15 district's proportionate share of the aggregate amount of the
16 unfunded liability payable to the Illinois Municipal
17 Retirement Fund as provided in this paragraph shall be computed
18 in accordance with the ratio that the number of pupils in
19 average daily attendance in each such district for the school
20 year last ending prior to the date on which the offices of
21 township treasurer and trustee of schools of that township are
22 abolished bears to the aggregate number of pupils in average
23 daily attendance in all of those districts as so reported for
24 that school year.

5 costs to be an amount agreed upon by the sending and receiving
6 district but not less than the per capita cost of maintaining
7 the high school in the receiving district during the 1987-1988
8 school year. Any high school facility deactivated pursuant to
9 this subsection for the regular school term of the 1988-1989
10 school year shall be reactivated by operation of law as of the
11 end of the regular term of the 1988-1989 school year. The
12 status as a unit school district of a district which
13 deactivates its high school facilities pursuant to this
14 subsection shall not be affected by reason of such deactivation
15 of its high school facilities and such district shall continue
16 to be deemed in law a school district maintaining grades

6 children to receive special education. Such rules shall ensure
7 that a free appropriate public education be available to all
8 children with disabilities as defined in Section 14-1.02. The
9 State Board of Education shall require local school districts
10 to administer non-discriminatory procedures or tests to

12 a language other than English is used to determine their
13 eligibility to receive special education. The placement of low
14 English proficiency students in special education programs and

13 final decision is that the evaluation is appropriate, the
14 parent still has a right to an independent educational
15 evaluation, but not at public expense. An independent
16 educational evaluation at public expense must be completed
17 within 30 days of a parent written request unless the school
18 district initiates an impartial due process hearing or the
19 parent or school district offers reasonable grounds to show
20 that such 30 day time period should be extended. If the due
21 process hearing decision indicates that the parent is entitled
22 to an independent educational evaluation, it must be completed
23 within 30 days of the decision unless the parent or the school
24 district offers reasonable grounds to show that such 30 day
25 period should be extended. If a parent disagrees with the

1 conference or the findings of any educational evaluation which
2 results therefrom, the school district shall not proceed with a
3 placement based upon such evaluation and the child shall remain
4 in his or her regular classroom setting. No child shall be
5 eligible for admission to a special class for the educable
6 mentally disabled or for the trainable mentally disabled except
7 with a psychological evaluation and recommendation by a school
8 psychologist. Consent shall be obtained from the parent of a
9 child before any evaluation is conducted. If consent is not
10 given by the parent or if the parent disagrees with the
11 findings of the evaluation, then the school district may
12 initiate an impartial due process hearing under this Section.
13 The school district may evaluate the child if that is the
14 decision resulting from the impartial due process hearing and
15 the decision is not appealed or if the decision is affirmed on
16 appeal. The determination of eligibility shall be made and the
17 IEP meeting shall be completed within 60 school days from the
18 date of written parental consent. In those instances when
19 written parental consent is obtained with fewer than 60 pupil
20 attendance days left in the school year, the eligibility
21 determination shall be made and the IEP meeting shall be
22 completed prior to the first day of the following school year.
23 After a child has been determined to be eligible for a special
24 education class, such child must be placed in the appropriate
25 program pursuant to the individualized educational program by

4 linguistic needs. No later than September 1, 1993, the State
5 Board of Education shall establish standards for the
6 development, implementation and monitoring of appropriate
7 bilingual special individualized educational programs. The
8 State Board of Education shall further incorporate appropriate
9 monitoring procedures to verify implementation of these
10 standards. The district shall indicate to the parent and the
11 State Board of Education the nature of the services the child
12 will receive for the regular school term while waiting
13 placement in the appropriate special education class.
14     If the child is deaf, hard of hearing, blind, or visually
15 impaired and he or she might be eligible to receive services
16 from the Illinois School for the Deaf or the Illinois School
17 for the Visually Impaired, the school district shall notify the
18 parents, in writing, of the existence of these schools and the
19 services they provide and shall make a reasonable effort to
20 inform the parents of the existence of other, local schools
21 that provide similar services and the services that these other
22 schools provide. This notification shall include without

8     child.
9         (2) The need to develop social interaction skills and
10     proficiencies.
11         (3) The needs resulting from the child's unusual

2     If the student may be eligible to participate in the
3 Home-Based Support Services Program for Mentally Disabled
4 Adults authorized under the Developmental Disability and
5 Mental Disability Services Act upon becoming an adult, the
6 student's individualized education program shall include plans
7 for (i) determining the student's eligibility for those
8 home-based services, (ii) enrolling the student in the program
9 of home-based services, and (iii) developing a plan for the
10 student's most effective use of the home-based services after
11 the student becomes an adult and no longer receives special
12 educational services under this Article. The plans developed
13 under this paragraph shall include specific actions to be taken
14 by specified individuals, agencies, or officials.
15     (c) In the development of the individualized education
16 program for a student who is functionally blind, it shall be
17 presumed that proficiency in Braille reading and writing is
18 essential for the student's satisfactory educational progress.
19 For purposes of this subsection, the State Board of Education
20 shall determine the criteria for a student to be classified as
21 functionally blind. Students who are not currently identified
22 as functionally blind who are also entitled to Braille
23 instruction include: (i) those whose vision loss is so severe
24 that they are unable to read and write at a level comparable to
25 their peers solely through the use of vision, and (ii) those
26 who show evidence of progressive vision loss that may result in

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 594 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 functional blindness. Each student who is functionally blind
2 shall be entitled to Braille reading and writing instruction
3 that is sufficient to enable the student to communicate with
4 the same level of proficiency as other students of comparable
5 ability. Instruction should be provided to the extent that the
6 student is physically and cognitively able to use Braille.
7 Braille instruction may be used in combination with other
8 special education services appropriate to the student's
9 educational needs. The assessment of each student who is
10 functionally blind for the purpose of developing the student's
11 individualized education program shall include documentation
12 of the student's strengths and weaknesses in Braille skills.
13 Each person assisting in the development of the individualized
14 education program for a student who is functionally blind shall
15 receive information describing the benefits of Braille
16 instruction. The individualized education program for each
17 student who is functionally blind shall specify the appropriate
18 learning medium or media based on the assessment report.
19     (d) To the maximum extent appropriate, the placement shall
20 provide the child with the opportunity to be educated with
21 children who are not disabled; provided that children with
22 disabilities who are recommended to be placed into regular
23 education classrooms are provided with supplementary services
24 to assist the children with disabilities to benefit from the
25 regular classroom instruction and are included on the teacher's
26 regular education class register. Subject to the limitation of

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 595 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 the preceding sentence, placement in special classes, separate
2 schools or other removal of the disabled child from the regular
3 educational environment shall occur only when the nature of the
4 severity of the disability is such that education in the
5 regular classes with the use of supplementary aids and services
6 cannot be achieved satisfactorily. The placement of limited
7 English proficiency students with disabilities shall be in
8 non-restrictive environments which provide for integration
9 with non-disabled peers in bilingual classrooms. Annually,
10 each January, school districts shall report data on students
11 from non-English speaking backgrounds receiving special
12 education and related services in public and private facilities
13 as prescribed in Section 2-3.30. If there is a disagreement
14 between parties involved regarding the special education
15 placement of any child, either in-state or out-of-state, the
16 placement is subject to impartial due process procedures
17 described in Article 10 of the Rules and Regulations to Govern
18 the Administration and Operation of Special Education.
19     (e) No child who comes from a home in which a language
20 other than English is the principal language used may be
21 assigned to any class or program under this Article until he
22 has been given, in the principal language used by the child and
23 used in his home, tests reasonably related to his cultural
24 environment. All testing and evaluation materials and
25 procedures utilized for evaluation and placement shall not be
26 linguistically, racially or culturally discriminatory.

3 treatment whose parents object thereto on the grounds that such
4 examination or treatment conflicts with his religious beliefs.
5     (g) School boards or their designee shall provide to the
6 parents of a child prior written notice of any decision (a)
7 proposing to initiate or change, or (b) refusing to initiate or
8 change, the identification, evaluation, or educational
9 placement of the child or the provision of a free appropriate

18 all procedures available pursuant to this Act and the federal
19 Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of
20 2004 (Public Law 108-446); it shall be the responsibility of

1 based on the latest available equalized assessed valuation and
2 tax rates, as provided in Section 18-8.05 and shall use the
3 average daily attendance as determined by the method outlined
4 in Section 18-8.05 and shall be certified and filed with the
5 regional superintendent by June 21 for districts with an
6 official school calendar end date before June 15 or within 2
7 weeks following the official school calendar end date for

11 for districts with an official school calendar end date before
12 June 15 or no later than July 15 for districts with an official
13 school calendar end date of June 15 or later. Failure to so
14 file by these deadlines constitutes a forfeiture of the right

17 shall certify the county report of claims by July 15; and the
18 State Superintendent of Education shall voucher for payment
19 those claims to the State Comptroller as provided in Section
20 18-11.
21     Except as otherwise provided in this Section, if any school
22 district fails to provide the minimum school term specified in
23 Section 10-19, the State aid claim for that year shall be
24 reduced by the State Superintendent of Education in an amount
25 equivalent to .56818% for each day less than the number of days
26 required by this Code.

1     If the State Superintendent of Education determines that
2 the failure to provide the minimum school term was occasioned
3 by an act or acts of God, or was occasioned by conditions
4 beyond the control of the school district which posed a
5 hazardous threat to the health and safety of pupils, the State
6 aid claim need not be reduced.
7     If the State Superintendent of Education determines that
8 the failure to provide the minimum school term was due to a
9 school being closed on or after September 11, 2001 for more
10 than one-half day of attendance due to a bioterrorism or
11 terrorism threat that was investigated by a law enforcement
12 agency, the State aid claim shall not be reduced.

14 provided at least one clock hour of instruction but must close
15 the schools due to adverse weather conditions or due to a
16 condition beyond the control of the school district that poses
17 a hazardous threat to the health and safety of pupils prior to
18 providing the minimum hours of instruction required for a full
19 day of attendance, (ii) the school district must delay the
20 start of the school day due to adverse weather conditions and
21 this delay prevents the district from providing the minimum
22 hours of instruction required for a full day of attendance, or
23 (iii) a school district has provided at least one clock hour of
24 instruction but must dismiss students from one or more
25 recognized school buildings due to a condition beyond the
26 control of the school district, the partial day of attendance

4 local school district superintendent to the Regional
5 Superintendent of Schools for forwarding to the State
6 Superintendent of Education for approval.
7     If a school building is ordered to be closed by the school
8 board, in consultation with a local emergency response agency,
9 due to a condition that poses a hazardous threat to the health
10 and safety of pupils, then the school district shall have a
11 grace period of 4 days in which the general State aid claim
12 shall not be reduced so that alternative housing of the pupils
13 may be located.
14     No exception to the requirement of providing a minimum
15 school term may be approved by the State Superintendent of
16 Education pursuant to this Section unless a school district has
17 first used all emergency days provided for in its regular
18 calendar.
19     If the State Superintendent of Education declares that an
20 energy shortage exists during any part of the school year for
21 the State or a designated portion of the State, a district may
22 operate the school attendance centers within the district 4
23 days of the week during the time of the shortage by extending

7     No State aid claim may be filed for any district unless the
8 district superintendent executes and files with the State
9 Superintendent of Education, in the method prescribed by the
10 Superintendent, certification that the district has complied
11 with the requirements of Section 10-22.5 in regard to the
12 nonsegregation of pupils on account of color, creed, race, sex
13 or nationality.
14     No State aid claim may be filed for any district unless the

14 within 60 days after May 15th. The Department of Public Health
15 shall establish, by rule, a waiver for children who show an
16 undue burden or a lack of access to a dentist. Each public,
17 private, and parochial school must give notice of this dental
18 examination requirement to the parents and guardians of
19 students at least 60 days before May 15th of each school year.
20     (1.10) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, all

1 of these children shall present proof of having been examined
2 by a physician licensed to practice medicine in all of its
3 branches or a licensed optometrist within the previous year, in
4 accordance with this Section and rules adopted under this
5 Section, before October 15th of the school year. If the child
6 fails to present proof by October 15th, the school may hold the
7 child's report card until one of the following occurs: (i) the
8 child presents proof of a completed eye examination or (ii) the
9 child presents proof that an eye examination will take place
10 within 60 days after October 15th. The Department of Public
11 Health shall establish, by rule, a waiver for children who show
12 an undue burden or a lack of access to a physician licensed to
13 practice medicine in all of its branches who provides eye
14 examinations or to a licensed optometrist. Each public,
15 private, and parochial school must give notice of this eye
16 examination requirement to the parents and guardians of
17 students in compliance with rules of the Department of Public
18 Health. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to allow a
19 school to exclude a child from attending because of a parent's
20 or guardian's failure to obtain an eye examination for the
21 child.
22     (2) The Department of Public Health shall promulgate rules
23 and regulations specifying the examinations and procedures
24 that constitute a health examination, which shall include the
25 collection of data relating to obesity (including at a minimum,
26 date of birth, gender, height, weight, blood pressure, and date

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 609 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 of exam), and a dental examination and may recommend by rule
2 that certain additional examinations be performed. The rules
3 and regulations of the Department of Public Health shall
4 specify that a tuberculosis skin test screening shall be
5 included as a required part of each health examination included
6 under this Section if the child resides in an area designated
7 by the Department of Public Health as having a high incidence
8 of tuberculosis. The Department of Public Health shall specify
9 that a diabetes screening as defined by rule shall be included
10 as a required part of each health examination. Diabetes testing
11 is not required.
12     Physicians licensed to practice medicine in all of its
13 branches, advanced practice nurses who have a written
14 collaborative agreement with a collaborating physician which
15 authorizes them to perform health examinations, or physician
16 assistants who have been delegated the performance of health
17 examinations by their supervising physician shall be
18 responsible for the performance of the health examinations,
19 other than dental examinations, eye examinations, and vision
20 and hearing screening, and shall sign all report forms required
21 by subsection (4) of this Section that pertain to those
22 portions of the health examination for which the physician,
23 advanced practice nurse, or physician assistant is
24 responsible. If a registered nurse performs any part of a
25 health examination, then a physician licensed to practice
26 medicine in all of its branches must review and sign all

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 610 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 required report forms. Licensed dentists shall perform all
2 dental examinations and shall sign all report forms required by
3 subsection (4) of this Section that pertain to the dental
4 examinations. Physicians licensed to practice medicine in all
5 its branches or licensed optometrists shall perform all eye
6 examinations required by this Section and shall sign all report
7 forms required by subsection (4) of this Section that pertain
8 to the eye examination. For purposes of this Section, an eye
9 examination shall at a minimum include history, visual acuity,
10 subjective refraction to best visual acuity near and far,
11 internal and external examination, and a glaucoma evaluation,
12 as well as any other tests or observations that in the
13 professional judgment of the doctor are necessary. Vision and
14 hearing screening tests, which shall not be considered
15 examinations as that term is used in this Section, shall be
16 conducted in accordance with rules and regulations of the
17 Department of Public Health, and by individuals whom the
18 Department of Public Health has certified. In these rules and
19 regulations, the Department of Public Health shall require that
20 individuals conducting vision screening tests give a child's
21 parent or guardian written notification, before the vision
22 screening is conducted, that states, "Vision screening is not a
23 substitute for a complete eye and vision evaluation by an eye
24 doctor. Your child is not required to undergo this vision
25 screening if an optometrist or ophthalmologist has completed
26 and signed a report form indicating that an examination has

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 611 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 been administered within the previous 12 months."
2     (3) Every child shall, at or about the same time as he or
3 she receives a health examination required by subsection (1) of
4 this Section, present to the local school proof of having
5 received such immunizations against preventable communicable
6 diseases as the Department of Public Health shall require by
7 rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to this Section and
8 the Communicable Disease Prevention Act.
9     (4) The individuals conducting the health examination,
10 dental examination, or eye examination shall record the fact of
11 having conducted the examination, and such additional
12 information as required, including for a health examination
13 data relating to obesity (including at a minimum, date of
14 birth, gender, height, weight, blood pressure, and date of
15 exam), on uniform forms which the Department of Public Health
16 and the State Board of Education shall prescribe for statewide
17 use. The examiner shall summarize on the report form any
18 condition that he or she suspects indicates a need for special
19 services, including for a health examination factors relating
20 to obesity. The individuals confirming the administration of
21 required immunizations shall record as indicated on the form
22 that the immunizations were administered.
23     (5) If a child does not submit proof of having had either
24 the health examination or the immunization as required, then
25 the child shall be examined or receive the immunization, as the
26 case may be, and present proof by October 15 of the current

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 612 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 school year, or by an earlier date of the current school year
2 established by a school district. To establish a date before
3 October 15 of the current school year for the health
4 examination or immunization as required, a school district must
5 give notice of the requirements of this Section 60 days prior
6 to the earlier established date. If for medical reasons one or
7 more of the required immunizations must be given after October
8 15 of the current school year, or after an earlier established
9 date of the current school year, then the child shall present,
10 by October 15, or by the earlier established date, a schedule
11 for the administration of the immunizations and a statement of
12 the medical reasons causing the delay, both the schedule and
13 the statement being issued by the physician, advanced practice
14 nurse, physician assistant, registered nurse, or local health
15 department that will be responsible for administration of the
16 remaining required immunizations. If a child does not comply by
17 October 15, or by the earlier established date of the current
18 school year, with the requirements of this subsection, then the
19 local school authority shall exclude that child from school
20 until such time as the child presents proof of having had the
21 health examination as required and presents proof of having
22 received those required immunizations which are medically
23 possible to receive immediately. During a child's exclusion
24 from school for noncompliance with this subsection, the child's
25 parents or legal guardian shall be considered in violation of
26 Section 26-1 and subject to any penalty imposed by Section

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 613 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 26-10. This subsection (5) does not apply to dental
2 examinations and eye examinations.
3     (6) Every school shall report to the State Board of
4 Education by November 15, in the manner which that agency shall
5 require, the number of children who have received the necessary
6 immunizations and the health examination (other than a dental
7 examination or eye examination) as required, indicating, of
8 those who have not received the immunizations and examination
9 as required, the number of children who are exempt from health
10 examination and immunization requirements on religious or
11 medical grounds as provided in subsection (8). Every school
12 shall report to the State Board of Education by June 30, in the
13 manner that the State Board requires, the number of children
14 who have received the required dental examination, indicating,
15 of those who have not received the required dental examination,
16 the number of children who are exempt from the dental
17 examination on religious grounds as provided in subsection (8)
18 of this Section and the number of children who have received a
19 waiver under subsection (1.5) of this Section. Every school
20 shall report to the State Board of Education by June 30, in the
21 manner that the State Board requires, the number of children
22 who have received the required eye examination, indicating, of
23 those who have not received the required eye examination, the
24 number of children who are exempt from the eye examination as
25 provided in subsection (8) of this Section, the number of
26 children who have received a waiver under subsection (1.10) of

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 614 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 this Section, and the total number of children in noncompliance
2 with the eye examination requirement. This reported
3 information shall be provided to the Department of Public
4 Health by the State Board of Education.
5     (7) Upon determining that the number of pupils who are
6 required to be in compliance with subsection (5) of this
7 Section is below 90% of the number of pupils enrolled in the
8 school district, 10% of each State aid payment made pursuant to
9 Section 18-8.05 to the school district for such year may be
10 withheld by the State Board of Education until the number of
11 students in compliance with subsection (5) is the applicable
12 specified percentage or higher.
13     (8) Parents or legal guardians who object to health,
14 dental, or eye examinations or any part thereof, or to
15 immunizations, on religious grounds shall not be required to
16 submit their children or wards to the examinations or
17 immunizations to which they so object if such parents or legal
18 guardians present to the appropriate local school authority a
19 signed statement of objection, detailing the grounds for the
20 objection. If the physical condition of the child is such that
21 any one or more of the immunizing agents should not be
22 administered, the examining physician, advanced practice
23 nurse, or physician assistant responsible for the performance
24 of the health examination shall endorse that fact upon the
25 health examination form. Exempting a child from the health,
26 dental, or eye examination does not exempt the child from

14     (105 ILCS 5/27-23.7)
15     Sec. 27-23.7. Bullying prevention education; gang
16 resistance education and training.
17     (a) The General Assembly finds that bullying has a negative
18 effect on the social environment of schools, creates a climate
19 of fear among students, inhibits their ability to learn, and
20 leads to other antisocial behavior. Bullying behavior has been
21 linked to other forms of antisocial behavior, such as
22 vandalism, shoplifting, skipping and dropping out of school,
23 fighting, using drugs and alcohol, sexual harassment, and
24 sexual violence.
25     The General Assembly further finds that the instance of

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 617 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 youth delinquent gangs continues to rise on a statewide basis.
2 Given the higher rates of criminal offending among gang
3 members, as well as the availability of increasingly lethal
4 weapons, the level of criminal activity by gang members has
5 taken on new importance for law enforcement agencies, schools,
6 the community, and prevention efforts.
7     (b) In this Section:
8     "Bullying prevention" means and includes instruction in
9 all of the following:
10         (1) Intimidation.
11         (2) Student victimization.
12         (3) Sexual harassment.
13         (4) Sexual violence.
14         (5) Strategies for student-centered problem solving
15     regarding bullying.
16     "Gang resistance education and training" means and
17 includes instruction in, without limitation, each of the
18 following subject matters when accompanied by a stated
19 objective of reducing gang activity and educating children in
20 grades K through 12 about the consequences of gang involvement:
21         (1) Conflict resolution.
22         (2) Cultural sensitivity.
23         (3) Personal goal setting.
24         (4) Resisting peer pressure.
25     (c) Each school district may make suitable provisions for
26 instruction in bullying prevention and gang resistance

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 618 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 education and training in all grades and include such
2 instruction in the courses of study regularly taught therein. A
3 school board may collaborate with a community-based agency
4 providing specialized curricula in bullying prevention whose
5 ultimate outcome is to prevent sexual violence. For the
6 purposes of gang resistance education and training, a school
7 board must collaborate with State and local law enforcement
8 agencies. The State Board of Education may assist in the
9 development of instructional materials and teacher training in
10 relation to bullying prevention and gang resistance education
11 and training.
12     (d) Beginning 180 days after August 23, 2007 (the effective
13 date of Public Act 95-349) this amendatory Act of the 95th
14 General Assembly, each school district shall create and
15 maintain a policy on bullying, which policy must be filed with
16 the State Board of Education. Each school district must
17 communicate its policy on bullying to its students and their
18 parent or guardian on an annual basis. The policy must be
19 updated every 2 years and filed with the State Board of
20 Education after being updated. The State Board of Education
21 shall monitor the implementation of policies created under this
22 subsection (d).

19     Section 185. The Public Community College Act is amended by
20 renumbering Section 2.24 as follows:
 
21     (110 ILCS 805/2-25)
22     Sec. 2-25 2.24. College and Career Readiness Pilot Program.
23     (a) The General Assembly finds that there is a direct and
24 significant link between students being academically prepared

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 628 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 for college and success in postsecondary education. Many
2 students enter college unprepared for the academic rigors of
3 college and require noncredit remedial courses to attain skills
4 and knowledge needed for regular, credit coursework.
5 Remediation lengthens time to degree, imposes additional costs
6 on students and colleges, and uses student financial aid for
7 courses that will not count toward a degree. All high school
8 juniors take the Prairie State Achievement Examination, which
9 contains the ACT college assessment exam. ACT test elements and
10 scores can be correlated to specific course placements in
11 community colleges. Customized ACT test results can be used in
12 collaboration with high schools to assist high school students
13 identify areas for improvement and help them close skill gaps
14 during their senior year. Greater college and career readiness
15 will reduce the need for remediation, lower educational costs,
16 shorten time to degree, and increase the overall success rate
17 of Illinois college students.
18     (b) Subject to appropriation, the State Board shall create
19 a 3-year pilot project, to be known as the College and Career
20 Readiness Pilot Program. The goals of the program are as
21 follows:
22         (1) To diagnose college readiness by developing a
23     system to align ACT scores to specific community college
24     courses in developmental and freshman curriculums.
25         (2) To reduce remediation by decreasing the need for
26     remedial coursework in mathematics, reading, and writing

2     students enrolled in a college-prep core curriculum, (ii)
3     assisting students in improving college readiness skills,
4     and (iii) increasing successful student transitions into
5     postsecondary education.
6         (3) To align high school and college curriculums.
7         (4) To provide resources and academic support to
8     students to enrich the senior year of high school through
9     remedial or advanced coursework and other interventions.
10         (5) To develop an appropriate evaluation process to
11     measure the effectiveness of readiness intervention
12     strategies.
13     (c) The first year of the program created under this
14 Section shall begin with the high school class of 2008.
15         (1) The State Board shall select 4 community colleges
16     to participate in the program based on all of the

1             (E) The ability of the community college to partner
2         with local high schools to develop college and career
3         readiness strategies and college readiness teams.
4         (2) The State Board shall work with ACT to analyze up
5     to 10 courses at each participating community college for
6     purposes of determining student placement and college
7     readiness.
8         (3) Each participating community college shall
9     establish an agreement with a high school or schools to do
10     all of the following:

10                 (iii) Provide readiness support services.
11             (D) Retest students in the spring of 2008 to assess
12         progress and college readiness.
13         (4) The State Board shall work with participating
14     community colleges and high schools to develop an

7 adoption of a higher standard of valuation. In the valuation of
8 policies the Director shall give no consideration to, nor make
9 any deduction because of, the existence or the possession by
10 the company of
11         (a) policy liens created by any agreement given or

11     standard for the valuation of group insurance policies
12     under which premium rates are not guaranteed for a period

15     life company may, at its option, value its insurance
16     contracts issued on or after January 1, 1938, in accordance
17     with their terms on the basis of the American Men Ultimate
18     Table of Mortality with interest not higher than 3 1/2% per
19     annum.
20         (b) Policies issued prior to January 1, 1908, may

24     January 1, 1908, may be valued according to a method
25     producing reserves not less than those produced by the

SB2023 Enrolled - 647 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     paragraph (c). Policies issued on and after January 1,
2     1938, may be valued either according to a method producing
3     reserves not less than those produced by such modified
4     preliminary term method or by the select and ultimate
5     method on the basis that the rate of mortality during the
6     first 5 years after the issuance of such contracts
7     respectively shall be calculated according to the
8     following percentages of rates shown by the American
9     Experience Table of Mortality:
10             (i) first insurance year 50% thereof;
11             (ii) second insurance year 65% thereof;
12             (iii) third insurance year 75% thereof;
13             (iv) fourth insurance year 85% thereof;
14             (v) fifth insurance year 95% thereof. ;
15         (c) If the premium charged for the first policy year
16     under a limited payment life preliminary term policy
17     providing for the payment of all premiums thereon in less
18     than 20 years from the date of the policy or under an
19     endowment preliminary term policy, exceeds that charged
20     for the first policy year under 20 payment life preliminary
21     term policies of the same company, the reserve thereon at
22     the end of any year, including the first, shall not be less
23     than the reserve on a 20 payment life preliminary term
24     policy issued in the same year at the same age, together
25     with an amount which shall be equivalent to the
26     accumulation of a net level premium sufficient to provide

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 648 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     for a pure endowment at the end of the premium payment
2     period, equal to the difference between the value at the
3     end of such period of such a 20 payment life preliminary
4     term policy and the full net level premium reserve at such
5     time of such a limited payment life or endowment policy.
6     The premium payment period is the period during which
7     premiums are concurrently payable under such 20 payment
8     life preliminary term policy and such limited payment life
9     or endowment policy.
10         (d) The legal minimum standard for the valuations of
11     annuities issued on and after January 1, 1938, shall be the
12     American Annuitant's Table with interest not higher than 3
13     3/4% per annum, and all annuities issued before that date
14     shall be valued on a basis not lower than that used for the
15     annual statement of the year 1937; but annuities deferred
16     10 or more years and written in connection with life
17     insurance shall be valued on the same basis as that used in
18     computing the consideration or premiums therefor, or upon
19     any higher standard at the option of the company.
20         (e) The Director may vary the standards of interest and
21     mortality as to contracts issued in countries other than
22     the United States and may vary standards of mortality in
23     particular cases of invalid lives and other extra hazards.
24         (f) The legal minimum standard for valuation of waiver
25     of premium disability benefits or waiver of premium and
26     income disability benefits issued on and after January 1,

2     modified to conform to the contractual waiting period, with
3     interest at not more than 3 1/2% per annum; but in no event
4     shall the values be less than those produced by the basis
5     used in computing premiums for such benefits. The legal
6     minimum standard for the valuation of such benefits issued
7     prior to January 1, 1938, shall be such as to place an
8     adequate value, as determined by sound insurance
9     practices, on the liabilities thereunder and shall be such
10     that the value of the benefits under each and every policy
11     shall in no case be less than the value placed upon the
12     future premiums.
13         (g) The legal minimum standard for the valuation of
14     industrial policies issued on or after January 1, 1938,
15     shall be the American Experience Table of Mortality or the
16     Standard Industrial Mortality Table or the Substandard
17     Industrial Mortality Table with interest at 3 1/2% per
18     annum by the net level premium method, or in accordance
19     with their terms by the modified preliminary term method
20     hereinabove described.
21         (h) Reserves for all such policies and contracts may be
22     calculated, at the option of the company, according to any
23     standards which produce greater aggregate reserves for all
24     such policies and contracts than the minimum reserves
25     required by this subsection.

8         the same amount at an age one year higher than the age
9         at issue of such policy.
10             (B) A net one year term premium for such benefits
11         provided for in the first policy year.
12         For any life insurance policy issued on or after
13     January 1, 1987, for which the contract premium in the

4     A of the preceding part of this paragraph (b) being reduced
5     by 15% of the amount of such excess first year premium,
6     (ii) all present values of benefits and premiums being
7     determined without reference to premiums or benefits
8     provided for by the policy after the assumed ending date,
9     (iii) the policy being assumed to mature on such date as an
10     endowment, and (iv) the cash surrender value provided on
11     such date being considered as an endowment benefit. In
12     making the above comparison, the mortality and interest
13     bases stated in paragraph (a) of subsection (3) and in
14     subsection (6) 6 shall be used.
15         Reserves according to the Commissioners reserve

14     in subsection (5) and the mortality table or tables and
15     rate or rates of interest used in calculating
16     non-forfeiture benefits for such policies.
17         (d) In no event shall the aggregate reserves for all
18     policies, contracts, and benefits be less than the
19     aggregate reserves determined by the qualified actuary to
20     be necessary to render the opinion required by subsection
21     (1a).
22         (e) Reserves for any category of policies, contracts or
23     benefits as established by the Director, may be calculated,

25     which produce greater aggregate reserves for such category
26     than those calculated according to the minimum standard

5     any nonforfeiture benefits provided for therein.
6         (f) If in any contract year the gross premium charged
7     by any life insurance company on any policy or contract is
8     less than the valuation net premium for the policy or
9     contract calculated by the method used in calculating the
10     reserve thereon but using the minimum valuation standards
11     of mortality and rate of interest, the minimum reserve
12     required for such policy or contract shall be the greater
13     of either the reserve calculated according to the mortality

7     actually used in calculating the reserve for such policy
8     were the method described in paragraph (b) of subsection
9     (3), ignoring the second paragraph of said paragraph (b).
10     The minimum reserve at each policy anniversary of such a

22         (b) Calendar Year Statutory Valuation Interest Rates.
23             (i) The calendar year statutory valuation interest
24         rates shall be determined according to the following
25         formulae, rounding "I" to the nearest .25%.
26                 (A) For life insurance,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 664 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1                     I = .03 + W (R1 - .03) + W/2 (R2 - .09).
2                 (B) For single premium immediate annuities and
3             annuity benefits involving life contingencies
4             arising from other annuities with cash settlement
5             options and from guaranteed interest contracts
6             with cash settlement options,
7                     I = .03 + W (R - .03) or with prior
8                 approval of the Director I = .03 + W (Rq -
9                 .03).
10             For the purposes of this subparagraph (i), "I"
11         equals the calendar year statutory valuation interest
12         rate, "R" is the reference interest rate defined in
13         this subsection, "R1" is the lesser of R and .09, "R2"
14         is the greater of R and .09, "Rq" is the quarterly
15         reference interest rate defined in this subsection,
16         and "W" is the weighting factor defined in this
17         subsection.
18                 (C) For other annuities with cash settlement
19             options and guaranteed interest contracts with
20             cash settlement options, valued on an issue year
21             basis, except as stated in (B), the formula for
22             life insurance stated in (A) applies to annuities
23             and guaranteed interest contracts with guarantee
24             durations in excess of 10 years, and the formula
25             for single premium immediate annuities stated in
26             (B) above applies to annuities and guaranteed

2             years or less.
3                 (D) For other annuities with no cash
4             settlement options and for guaranteed interest
5             contracts with no cash settlement options, the
6             formula for single premium immediate annuities
7             stated in (B) applies.
8                 (E) For other annuities with cash settlement
9             options and guaranteed interest contracts with
10             cash settlement options, valued on a change in fund
11             basis, the formula for single premium immediate
12             annuities stated in (B) applies.
13             (ii) If the calendar year statutory valuation
14         interest rate for any life insurance policy issued in
15         any calendar year determined without reference to this
16         subparagraph differs from the corresponding actual
17         rate for similar policies issued in the immediately
18         preceding calendar year by less than .5%, the calendar
19         year statutory valuation interest rate for such life
20         insurance policy shall be the corresponding actual
21         rate for the immediately preceding calendar year. For
22         purposes of applying this subparagraph, the calendar
23         year statutory valuation interest rate for life
24         insurance policies issued in a calendar year shall be
25         determined for 1980, using the reference interest rate
26         defined for 1979, and shall be determined for each

2                     Plan Type A is a plan under which the
3                 policyholder may not withdraw funds, or may
4                 withdraw funds at any time but only (a) with an
5                 adjustment to reflect changes in interest
6                 rates or asset values since receipt of the
7                 funds by the insurance company, (b) without
8                 such an adjustment but in installments over 5
9                 years or more, or (c) as an immediate life
10                 annuity.

8 21-1301, and by renumbering and changing Article 70 as follows:
 
9     (220 ILCS 5/8-103)
10     Sec. 8-103 12-103. Energy efficiency and demand-response
11 measures.
12     (a) It is the policy of the State that electric utilities
13 are required to use cost-effective energy efficiency and
14 demand-response measures to reduce delivery load. Requiring
15 investment in cost-effective energy efficiency and
16 demand-response measures will reduce direct and indirect costs
17 to consumers by decreasing environmental impacts and by
18 avoiding or delaying the need for new generation, transmission,
19 and distribution infrastructure. It serves the public interest
20 to allow electric utilities to recover costs for reasonably and
21 prudently incurred expenses for energy efficiency and
22 demand-response measures. As used in this Section,
23 "cost-effective" means that the measures satisfy the total
24 resource cost test. The low-income measures described in

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 683 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 subsection (f)(4) of this Section shall not be required to meet
2 the total resource cost test. For purposes of this Section, the
3 terms "energy-efficiency", "demand-response", "electric
4 utility", and "total resource cost test" shall have the
5 meanings set forth in the Illinois Power Agency Act. For
6 purposes of this Section, the amount per kilowatthour means the
7 total amount paid for electric service expressed on a per
8 kilowatthour basis. For purposes of this Section, the total
9 amount paid for electric service includes without limitation
10 estimated amounts paid for supply, transmission, distribution,
11 surcharges, and add-on-taxes.
12     (b) Electric utilities shall implement cost-effective
13 energy efficiency measures to meet the following incremental
14 annual energy savings goals:
15         (1) 0.2% of energy delivered in the year commencing
16     June 1, 2008;
17         (2) 0.4% of energy delivered in the year commencing
18     June 1, 2009;
19         (3) 0.6% of energy delivered in the year commencing
20     June 1, 2010;
21         (4) 0.8% of energy delivered in the year commencing
22     June 1, 2011;
23         (5) 1% of energy delivered in the year commencing June
24     1, 2012;
25         (6) 1.4% of energy delivered in the year commencing
26     June 1, 2013;

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 684 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         (7) 1.8% of energy delivered in the year commencing
2     June 1, 2014; and
3         (8) 2% of energy delivered in the year commencing June
4     1, 2015 and each year thereafter.
5     (c) Electric utilities shall implement cost-effective
6 demand-response measures to reduce peak demand by 0.1% over the
7 prior year for eligible retail customers, as defined in Section
8 16-111.5 of this Act. This requirement commences June 1, 2008
9 and continues for 10 years.
10     (d) Notwithstanding the requirements of subsections (b)
11 and (c) of this Section, an electric utility shall reduce the
12 amount of energy efficiency and demand-response measures
13 implemented in any single year by an amount necessary to limit
14 the estimated average increase in the amounts paid by retail
15 customers in connection with electric service due to the cost
16 of those measures to:
17             (1) in 2008, no more than 0.5% of the amount paid
18     per kilowatthour by those customers during the year ending
19     May 31, 2007;
20             (2) in 2009, the greater of an additional 0.5% of
21     the amount paid per kilowatthour by those customers during
22     the year ending May 31, 2008 or 1% of the amount paid per
23     kilowatthour by those customers during the year ending May
24     31, 2007;
25             (3) in 2010, the greater of an additional 0.5% of
26     the amount paid per kilowatthour by those customers during

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 685 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     the year ending May 31, 2009 or 1.5% of the amount paid per
2     kilowatthour by those customers during the year ending May
3     31, 2007;
4             (4) in 2011, the greater of an additional 0.5% of
5     the amount paid per kilowatthour by those customers during
6     the year ending May 31, 2010 or 2% of the amount paid per
7     kilowatthour by those customers during the year ending May
8     31, 2007; and
9             (5) thereafter, the amount of energy efficiency
10     and demand-response measures implemented for any single
11     year shall be reduced by an amount necessary to limit the
12     estimated average net increase due to the cost of these
13     measures included in the amounts paid by eligible retail
14     customers in connection with electric service to no more
15     than the greater of 2.015% of the amount paid per
16     kilowatthour by those customers during the year ending May
17     31, 2007 or the incremental amount per kilowatthour paid
18     for these measures in 2011.
19     No later than June 30, 2011, the Commission shall review
20 the limitation on the amount of energy efficiency and
21 demand-response measures implemented pursuant to this Section
22 and report to the General Assembly its findings as to whether
23 that limitation unduly constrains the procurement of energy
24 efficiency and demand-response measures.
25     (e) Electric utilities shall be responsible for overseeing
26 the design, development, and filing of energy efficiency and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 686 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 demand-response plans with the Commission. Electric utilities
2 shall implement 100% of the demand-response measures in the
3 plans. Electric utilities shall implement 75% of the energy
4 efficiency measures approved by the Commission, and may, as
5 part of that implementation, outsource various aspects of
6 program development and implementation. The remaining 25% of
7 those energy efficiency measures approved by the Commission
8 shall be implemented by the Department of Commerce and Economic
9 Opportunity, and must be designed in conjunction with the
10 utility and the filing process. The Department may outsource
11 development and implementation of energy efficiency measures.
12 A minimum of 10% of the entire portfolio of cost-effective
13 energy efficiency measures shall be procured from units of
14 local government, municipal corporations, school districts,
15 and community college districts. The Department shall
16 coordinate the implementation of these measures.
17     The apportionment of the dollars to cover the costs to
18 implement the Department's share of the portfolio of energy
19 efficiency measures shall be made to the Department once the
20 Department has executed grants or contracts for energy
21 efficiency measures and provided supporting documentation for
22 those grants and the contracts to the utility.
23     The details of the measures implemented by the Department
24 shall be submitted by the Department to the Commission in
25 connection with the utility's filing regarding the energy
26 efficiency and demand-response measures that the utility

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 687 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 implements.
2     A utility providing approved energy efficiency and
3 demand-response measures in the State shall be permitted to
4 recover costs of those measures through an automatic adjustment
5 clause tariff filed with and approved by the Commission. The
6 tariff shall be established outside the context of a general
7 rate case. Each year the Commission shall initiate a review to
8 reconcile any amounts collected with the actual costs and to
9 determine the required adjustment to the annual tariff factor
10 to match annual expenditures.
11     Each utility shall include, in its recovery of costs, the
12 costs estimated for both the utility's and the Department's
13 implementation of energy efficiency and demand-response
14 measures. Costs collected by the utility for measures
15 implemented by the Department shall be submitted to the
16 Department pursuant to Section 605-323 of the Civil
17 Administrative Code of Illinois and shall be used by the
18 Department solely for the purpose of implementing these
19 measures. A utility shall not be required to advance any moneys
20 to the Department but only to forward such funds as it has
21 collected. The Department shall report to the Commission on an
22 annual basis regarding the costs actually incurred by the
23 Department in the implementation of the measures. Any changes
24 to the costs of energy efficiency measures as a result of plan
25 modifications shall be appropriately reflected in amounts
26 recovered by the utility and turned over to the Department.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 688 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     The portfolio of measures, administered by both the
2 utilities and the Department, shall, in combination, be
3 designed to achieve the annual savings targets described in
4 subsections (b) and (c) of this Section, as modified by
5 subsection (d) of this Section.
6     The utility and the Department shall agree upon a
7 reasonable portfolio of measures and determine the measurable
8 corresponding percentage of the savings goals associated with
9 measures implemented by the utility or Department.
10     No utility shall be assessed a penalty under subsection (f)
11 of this Section for failure to make a timely filing if that
12 failure is the result of a lack of agreement with the
13 Department with respect to the allocation of responsibilities
14 or related costs or target assignments. In that case, the
15 Department and the utility shall file their respective plans
16 with the Commission and the Commission shall determine an
17 appropriate division of measures and programs that meets the
18 requirements of this Section.
19     If the Department is unable to meet incremental annual
20 performance goals for the portion of the portfolio implemented
21 by the Department, then the utility and the Department shall
22 jointly submit a modified filing to the Commission explaining
23 the performance shortfall and recommending an appropriate
24 course going forward, including any program modifications that
25 may be appropriate in light of the evaluations conducted under
26 item (7) of subsection (f) of this Section. In this case, the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 689 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 utility obligation to collect the Department's costs and turn
2 over those funds to the Department under this subsection (e)
3 shall continue only if the Commission approves the
4 modifications to the plan proposed by the Department.
5     (f) No later than November 15, 2007, each electric utility
6 shall file an energy efficiency and demand-response plan with
7 the Commission to meet the energy efficiency and
8 demand-response standards for 2008 through 2010. Every 3 years
9 thereafter, each electric utility shall file an energy
10 efficiency and demand-response plan with the Commission. If a
11 utility does not file such a plan, it shall face a penalty of
12 $100,000 per day until the plan is filed. Each utility's plan
13 shall set forth the utility's proposals to meet the utility's
14 portion of the energy efficiency standards identified in
15 subsection (b) and the demand-response standards identified in
16 subsection (c) of this Section as modified by subsections (d)
17 and (e), taking into account the unique circumstances of the
18 utility's service territory. The Commission shall seek public
19 comment on the utility's plan and shall issue an order
20 approving or disapproving each plan within 3 months after its
21 submission. If the Commission disapproves a plan, the
22 Commission shall, within 30 days, describe in detail the
23 reasons for the disapproval and describe a path by which the
24 utility may file a revised draft of the plan to address the
25 Commission's concerns satisfactorily. If the utility does not
26 refile with the Commission within 60 days, the utility shall be

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 690 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 subject to penalties at a rate of $100,000 per day until the
2 plan is filed. This process shall continue, and penalties shall
3 accrue, until the utility has successfully filed a portfolio of
4 energy efficiency and demand-response measures. Penalties
5 shall be deposited into the Energy Efficiency Trust Fund. In
6 submitting proposed energy efficiency and demand-response
7 plans and funding levels to meet the savings goals adopted by
8 this Act the utility shall:
9         (1) Demonstrate that its proposed energy efficiency
10     and demand-response measures will achieve the requirements
11     that are identified in subsections (b) and (c) of this

2     (i) If, after 2 years, an electric utility fails to meet
3 the efficiency standard specified in subsection (b) of this
4 Section, as modified by subsections (d) and (e), it shall make
5 a contribution to the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance
6 Program. The combined total liability for failure to meet the
7 goal shall be $1,000,000, which shall be assessed as follows: a
8 large electric utility shall pay $665,000, and a medium
9 electric utility shall pay $335,000. If, after 3 years, an
10 electric utility fails to meet the efficiency standard
11 specified in subsection (b) of this Section, as modified by
12 subsections (d) and (e), it shall make a contribution to the
13 Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program. The combined total
14 liability for failure to meet the goal shall be $1,000,000,
15 which shall be assessed as follows: a large electric utility
16 shall pay $665,000, and a medium electric utility shall pay
17 $335,000. In addition, the responsibility for implementing the
18 energy efficiency measures of the utility making the payment
19 shall be transferred to the Illinois Power Agency if, after 3
20 years, or in any subsequent 3-year period, the utility fails to
21 meet the efficiency standard specified in subsection (b) of
22 this Section, as modified by subsections (d) and (e). The
23 Agency shall implement a competitive procurement program to
24 procure resources necessary to meet the standards specified in
25 this Section as modified by subsections (d) and (e), with costs
26 for those resources to be recovered in the same manner as

1 products purchased through the procurement plan as provided in
2 Section 16-111.5. The Director shall implement this
3 requirement in connection with the procurement plan as provided
4 in Section 16-111.5.
5     For purposes of this Section, (i) a "large electric
6 utility" is an electric utility that, on December 31, 2005,
7 served more than 2,000,000 electric customers in Illinois; (ii)
8 a "medium electric utility" is an electric utility that, on
9 December 31, 2005, served 2,000,000 or fewer but more than
10 100,000 electric customers in Illinois; and (iii) Illinois
11 electric utilities that are affiliated by virtue of a common
12 parent company are considered a single electric utility.
13     (j) If, after 3 years, or any subsequent 3-year period, the
14 Department fails to implement the Department's share of energy
15 efficiency measures required by the standards in subsection
16 (b), then the Illinois Power Agency may assume responsibility
17 for and control of the Department's share of the required
18 energy efficiency measures. The Agency shall implement a
19 competitive procurement program to procure resources necessary
20 to meet the standards specified in this Section, with the costs
21 of these resources to be recovered in the same manner as
22 provided for the Department in this Section.
23     (k) No electric utility shall be deemed to have failed to
24 meet the energy efficiency standards to the extent any such
25 failure is due to a failure of the Department or the Agency.

3     account to implement the proposed reorganization or
4     transaction together with a certification from an
5     independent certified public accountant that such entries
6     are in accord with generally accepted accounting
7     principles and, if the Commission has previously approved
8     guidelines for cost allocations between the utility and its
9     affiliates, a certification from the chief accounting
10     officer of the utility that such entries are in accord with
11     those cost allocation guidelines;
12          (ii) a description of how the electric utility will

26     entitled to collect under this Article XVI; and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 710 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1          (v) if the electric utility proposes to sell, assign,
2     lease or otherwise transfer a generating plant that brings
3     the amount of net dependable generating capacity
4     transferred pursuant to this subsection to an amount equal
5     to or greater than 15% of the electric utility's net
6     dependable capacity as of the effective date of this
7     amendatory Act of 1997, and enters into a power purchase
8     agreement with the entity to which such generating plant is
9     sold, assigned, leased, or otherwise transferred, the
10     electric utility also agrees, if its fuel adjustment clause
11     has not already been eliminated, to eliminate its fuel
12     adjustment clause in accordance with subsection (b) of
13     Section 9-220 for a period of time equal to the length of
14     any such power purchase agreement or successor agreement,
15     or until January 1, 2005, whichever is longer; if the
16     capacity of the generating plant so transferred and related
17     power purchase agreement does not result in the elimination
18     of the fuel adjustment clause under this subsection, and
19     the fuel adjustment clause has not already been eliminated,
20     the electric utility shall agree that the costs associated
21     with the transferred plant that are included in the
22     calculation of the rate per kilowatt-hour to be applied
23     pursuant to the electric utility's fuel adjustment clause
24     during such period shall not exceed the per kilowatt-hour
25     cost associated with such generating plant included in the
26     electric utility's fuel adjustment clause during the full

1     calendar year preceding the transfer, with such limit to be
2     adjusted each year thereafter by the Gross Domestic Product
3     Implicit Price Deflator; and .
4          (vi) in In addition, if the electric utility proposes
5     to sell, assign, or lease, (A) either (1) an amount of
6     generating plant that brings the amount of net dependable
7     generating capacity transferred pursuant to this
8     subsection to an amount equal to or greater than 15% of its
9     net dependable capacity on the effective date of this
10     amendatory Act of 1997, or (2) one or more generating
11     plants with a total net dependable capacity of 1100
12     megawatts, or (B) transmission and distribution facilities
13     that either (1) bring the amount of transmission and
14     distribution facilities transferred pursuant to this
15     subsection to an amount equal to or greater than 15% of the
16     electric utility's total depreciated original cost
17     investment in such facilities, or (2) represent an
18     investment of $25,000,000 in terms of total depreciated
19     original cost, the electric utility shall provide, in
20     addition to the information listed in subparagraphs (i)
21     through (v), the following information: (A) a description
22     of how the electric utility will meet its service
23     obligations under this Act in a safe and reliable manner
24     and (B) the electric utility's projected earned rate of
25     return on common equity for each year from the date of the
26     notice through December 31, 2006 both with and without the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 712 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     proposed transaction. If the Commission has not issued an
2     order initiating a hearing on the proposed transaction
3     within 30 days after the date the electric utility's notice
4     is filed, the transaction shall be deemed approved. The
5     Commission may, after notice and hearing, prohibit the
6     proposed transaction if it makes either or both of the
7     following findings: (1) that the proposed transaction will
8     render the electric utility unable to provide its tariffed
9     services in a safe and reliable manner, or (2) that there
10     is a strong likelihood that consummation of the proposed
11     transaction will result in the electric utility being
12     entitled to request an increase in its base rates. Any
13     hearing initiated by the Commission into the proposed
14     transaction shall be completed, and the Commission's final
15     order approving or prohibiting the proposed transaction
16     shall be entered, within 90 days after the date the
17     electric utility's notice was filed. Provided, however,
18     that a sale, assignment, or lease of transmission
19     facilities to an independent system operator that meets the
20     requirements of Section 16-126 shall not be subject to
21     Commission approval under this Section.
22          In any proceeding conducted by the Commission pursuant
23     to this subparagraph (vi), intervention shall be limited to
24     parties with a direct interest in the transaction which is
25     the subject of the hearing and any statutory consumer
26     protection agency as defined in subsection (d) of Section

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 713 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     9-102.1. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10-113
2     of this Act, any application seeking rehearing of an order
3     issued under this subparagraph (vi), whether filed by the
4     electric utility or by an intervening party, shall be filed
5     within 10 days after service of the order.
6     The Commission shall not in any subsequent proceeding or
7 otherwise, review such a reorganization or other transaction
8 authorized by this Section, but shall retain the authority to
9 allocate costs as stated in Section 16-111(i). An entity to
10 which an electric utility sells, assigns, leases or transfers
11 assets pursuant to this subsection (g) shall not, as a result
12 of the transactions specified in this subsection (g), be deemed
13 a public utility as defined in Section 3-105. Nothing in this
14 subsection (g) shall change any requirement under the
15 jurisdiction of the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety
16 including, but not limited to, the payment of fees. Nothing in
17 this subsection (g) shall exempt a utility from obtaining a
18 certificate pursuant to Section 8-406 of this Act for the
19 construction of a new electric generating facility. Nothing in
20 this subsection (g) is intended to exempt the transactions
21 hereunder from the operation of the federal or State antitrust
22 laws. Nothing in this subsection (g) shall require an electric
23 utility to use the procedures specified in this subsection for
24 any of the transactions specified herein. Any other procedure
25 available under this Act may, at the electric utility's
26 election, be used for any such transaction.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 714 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     (h) During the mandatory transition period, the Commission
2 shall not establish or use any rates of depreciation, which for
3 purposes of this subsection shall include amortization, for any
4 electric utility other than those established pursuant to
5 subsection (c) of Section 5-104 of this Act or utilized
6 pursuant to subsection (g) of this Section. Provided, however,
7 that in any proceeding to review an electric utility's rates
8 for tariffed services pursuant to Section 9-201, 9-202, 9-250
9 or 16-111(d) of this Act, the Commission may establish new
10 rates of depreciation for the electric utility in the same
11 manner provided in subsection (d) of Section 5-104 of this Act.
12 An electric utility implementing an accelerated cost recovery
13 method including accelerated depreciation, accelerated
14 amortization or other capital recovery methods, or recording
15 reductions to the original cost of its assets, pursuant to
16 subsection (g) of this Section, shall file a statement with the
17 Commission describing the accelerated cost recovery method to
18 be implemented or the reduction in the original cost of its
19 assets to be recorded. Upon the filing of such statement, the
20 accelerated cost recovery method or the reduction in the
21 original cost of assets shall be deemed to be approved by the
22 Commission as though an order had been entered by the
23 Commission.
24     (i) Subsequent to the mandatory transition period, the
25 Commission, in any proceeding to establish rates and charges
26 for tariffed services offered by an electric utility, shall

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 715 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 consider only (1) the then current or projected revenues,
2 costs, investments and cost of capital directly or indirectly
3 associated with the provision of such tariffed services; (2)
4 collection of transition charges in accordance with Sections
5 16-102 and 16-108 of this Act; (3) recovery of any employee
6 transition costs as described in Section 16-128 which the
7 electric utility is continuing to incur, including recovery of
8 any unamortized portion of such costs previously incurred or
9 committed, with such costs to be equitably allocated among
10 bundled services, delivery services, and contracts with
11 alternative retail electric suppliers; and (4) recovery of the
12 costs associated with the electric utility's compliance with
13 decommissioning funding requirements; and shall not consider
14 any other revenues, costs, investments or cost of capital of
15 either the electric utility or of any affiliate of the electric
16 utility that are not associated with the provision of tariffed
17 services. In setting rates for tariffed services, the
18 Commission shall equitably allocate joint and common costs and
19 investments between the electric utility's competitive and
20 tariffed services. In determining the justness and
21 reasonableness of the electric power and energy component of an
22 electric utility's rates for tariffed services subsequent to
23 the mandatory transition period and prior to the time that the
24 provision of such electric power and energy is declared
25 competitive, the Commission shall consider the extent to which
26 the electric utility's tariffed rates for such component for

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 716 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 each customer class exceed the market value determined pursuant
2 to Section 16-112, and, if the electric power and energy
3 component of such tariffed rate exceeds the market value by
4 more than 10% for any customer class, may establish such
5 electric power and energy component at a rate equal to the
6 market value plus 10%.
7     (j) During the mandatory transition period, an electric
8 utility may elect to transfer to a non-operating income account
9 under the Commission's Uniform System of Accounts either or
10 both of (i) an amount of unamortized investment tax credit that
11 is in addition to the ratable amount which is credited to the
12 electric utility's operating income account for the year in
13 accordance with Section 46(f)(2) of the federal Internal
14 Revenue Code of 1986, as in effect prior to P.L. 101-508, or
15 (ii) "excess tax reserves", as that term is defined in Section
16 203(e)(2)(A) of the federal Tax Reform Act of 1986, provided
17 that (A) the amount transferred may not exceed the amount of
18 the electric utility's assets that were created pursuant to
19 Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 71 which the
20 electric utility has written off during the mandatory
21 transition period, and (B) the transfer shall not be effective
22 until approved by the Internal Revenue Service. An electric
23 utility electing to make such a transfer shall file a statement
24 with the Commission stating the amount and timing of the
25 transfer for which it intends to request approval of the
26 Internal Revenue Service, along with a copy of its proposed

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 717 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 request to the Internal Revenue Service for a ruling. The
2 Commission shall issue an order within 14 days after the
3 electric utility's filing approving, subject to receipt of
4 approval from the Internal Revenue Service, the proposed
5 transfer.
6     (k) If an electric utility is selling or transferring to a
7 single buyer 5 or more generating plants located in this State
8 with a total net dependable capacity of 5000 megawatts or more
9 pursuant to subsection (g) of this Section and has obtained a
10 sale price or consideration that exceeds 200% of the book value
11 of such plants, the electric utility must provide to the
12 Governor, the President of the Illinois Senate, the Minority
13 Leader of the Illinois Senate, the Speaker of the Illinois
14 House of Representatives, and the Minority Leader of the
15 Illinois House of Representatives no later than 15 days after
16 filing its notice under subsection (g) of this Section or 5
17 days after the date on which this subsection (k) becomes law,
18 whichever is later, a written commitment in which such electric
19 utility agrees to expend $2 billion outside the corporate
20 limits of any municipality with 1,000,000 or more inhabitants
21 within such electric utility's service area, over a 6-year
22 period beginning with the calendar year in which the notice is
23 filed, on projects, programs, and improvements within its
24 service area relating to transmission and distribution
25 including, without limitation, infrastructure expansion,
26 repair and replacement, capital investments, operations and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 718 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 maintenance, and vegetation management.
2     (l) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act or any
3 rule, regulation, or prior order of the Commission, a public
4 utility providing electric and gas service may do any one or
5 more of the following: transfer assets to, reorganize with, or
6 merge with one or more public utilities under common holding
7 company ownership or control in the manner prescribed in
8 subsection (g) of this Section. No merger transaction costs,
9 such as fees paid to attorneys, investment bankers, and other
10 consultants, incurred in connection with a merger pursuant to
11 this subsection (l) shall be recoverable in any subsequent rate
12 proceeding. Approval of a merger pursuant to this subsection
13 (l) shall not constitute approval of, or otherwise require,
14 rate recovery of other costs incurred in connection with, or to
15 implement the merger, such as the cost of restructuring,
16 combining, or integrating debt, assets, or systems. Such other
17 costs may be recovered only to the extent that the surviving
18 utility can demonstrate that the cost savings produced by such
19 restructuring, combination, or integration exceed the
20 associated costs. Nothing in this subsection (l) shall impair
21 the terms or conditions of employment or the collective
22 bargaining rights of any employees of the utilities that are
23 transferring assets, reorganizing, or merging.
24     (m) If an electric utility that on December 31, 2005
25 provided electric service to at least 100,000 customers in
26 Illinois transfers assets, reorganizes, or merges under this

5     (220 ILCS 5/21-101)
6     (Section scheduled to be repealed on October 1, 2013)
7     Sec. 21-101. Findings. With respect to cable and video
8 competition, the General Assembly finds that:
9         (a) The economy in the State of Illinois will be
10     enhanced by investment in new communications, cable
11     services, and video services infrastructure, including
12     broadband facilities, fiber optic, and Internet protocol
13     technologies.
14         (b) Cable services and video services bring important
15     daily benefits to Illinois consumers by providing news,
16     education, and entertainment.
17         (c) Competitive cable service and video service
18     providers are capable of providing new video programming
19     services and competition to Illinois consumers and of
20     decreasing the prices for video programming services paid
21     by Illinois consumers.
22         (d) Although there has been some competitive entry into
23     the facilities-based video programming market since
24     current franchising requirements in this State were
25     enacted, further entry by facilities-based providers could

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 720 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     benefit consumers, provided cable and video services are
2     equitably available to all Illinois consumers at
3     reasonable prices.
4         (e) The provision of competitive cable services and
5     video services is a matter of statewide concern that
6     extends beyond the boundaries of individual local units of
7     government. Notwithstanding the foregoing, public
8     rights-of-way are limited resources over which the
9     municipality has a custodial duty to ensure that they are
10     used, repaired, and maintained in a manner that best serves
11     the public interest.
12         (f) The State authorization process and uniform
13     standards and procedures in this Article are intended to
14     enable rapid and widespread entry by competitive
15     providers, which will bring to Illinois consumers the
16     benefits of video competition, including providing
17     consumers with more choice, lower prices, higher speed and
18     more advanced Internet access, more diverse and varied
19     news, public information, education, and entertainment
20     programming, and will bring to this State and its local
21     units of government the benefits of new infrastructure
22     investment, job growth, and innovation in broadband and
23     Internet protocol technologies and deployment.
24         (g) Providing an incumbent cable or video service
25     provider with the option to secure a State-issued
26     authorization through the termination of existing cable

1     franchises between incumbent cable and video service
2     providers and any local franchising authority, is part of
3     the new regulatory framework established by this Article.
4     This Article is intended to best ensure equal treatment and
5     parity among providers and technologies.

10 95-9 this amendatory Act of the 95th Illinois General Assembly
11 shall apply only to a holder of a cable service or video
12 service authorization issued by the Commission pursuant to this
13 Article XXI of the Public Utilities Act, and shall not apply to
14 any person or entity that provides cable television services
15 under a cable television franchise issued by any municipality
16 or county pursuant to Section 11-42-11 of the Illinois
17 Municipal Code (65 ILCS 5/11-42-11) or Section 5-1095 of the
18 Counties Code (55 ILCS 5/5-1095), unless specifically provided
19 for herein. A local unit of government that has an existing
20 agreement for the provision of video services with a company or
21 entity that uses its telecommunications facilities to provide
22 video service as of May 30, 2007 may continue to operate under
23 that agreement or may, at its discretion, terminate the
24 existing agreement and require the video provider to obtain a
25 State-issued authorization under this Article.

13 transmit such programming to the holder in that form provided
14 that form permits will permit the holder to satisfy the
15 requirements of subsection (c) of this Section Section
16 21-601(c). If the local unit of government does not produce or
17 maintain such programming in that manner or form, then the
18 holder shall be responsible for any changes in the form of the
19 transmission necessary to make public, education, and
20 government programming compatible with the technology or
21 protocol used by the holder to deliver services. The holder
22 shall receive programming from the local unit of government (or
23 the local unit of government's public, education, and
24 government programming providers) and transmit that public,
25 education, and government programming directly to the holder's
26 subscribers within the local unit of government's jurisdiction

1 at no cost to the local unit of government or the public,
2 education, and government programming providers. If the holder
3 is required to change the form of the transmission, the local
4 unit of government or its designee shall provide reasonable
5 access to the holder to allow the holder to transmit the
6 public, education, and government programming in an economical
7 manner subject to the requirements of subsection (c) of this
8 Section Section 21-601(c).
9     (c) The holder shall provide to subscribers public,
10 education, and government access channel capacity at
11 equivalent visual and audio quality and equivalent
12 functionality, from the viewing perspective of the subscriber,
13 to that of commercial channels carried on the holder's basic
14 cable or video service offerings or tiers without the need for
15 any equipment other than the equipment necessary to receive the
16 holder's basic cable or video service offerings or tiers.
17     (d) The holder and an incumbent cable operator shall
18 negotiate in good faith to interconnect their networks, if
19 needed, for the purpose of providing public, education, and
20 government programming. Interconnection may be accomplished by
21 direct cable, microwave link, satellite, or other reasonable
22 method of connection. The holder and the incumbent cable
23 operator shall provide interconnection of the public,
24 education, and government channels on reasonable terms and
25 conditions and may not withhold the interconnection. If a
26 holder and an incumbent cable operator cannot reach a mutually

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 742 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 acceptable interconnection agreement, the local unit of
2 government may require the incumbent cable operator to allow
3 the holder to interconnect its network with the incumbent cable
4 operator's network at a technically feasible point on their
5 networks. If no technically feasible point for interconnection
6 is available, the holder and an incumbent cable operator shall
7 each make an interconnection available to the public,
8 education, and government channel originators at their local
9 origination points and shall provide the facilities necessary
10 for the interconnection. The cost of any interconnection shall
11 be borne by the holder unless otherwise agreed to by the
12 parties. The interconnection required by this subsection shall
13 be completed within the 90-day deadline set forth in subsection
14 (a) of this Section.
15     (e) The public, education, and government channels shall be
16 for the exclusive use of the local unit of government or its
17 designee to provide public, education, and government
18 programming. The public, education, and government channels
19 shall be used only for noncommercial purposes. However,
20 advertising, underwriting, or sponsorship recognition may be
21 carried on the channels for the purpose of funding public,
22 education, and government access related activities.
23     (f) Public, education, and government channels shall all be
24 carried on the holder's basic cable or video service offerings
25 or tiers. To the extent feasible, the public, education, and
26 government channels shall not be separated numerically from

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 743 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 other channels carried on the holder's basic cable or video
2 service offerings or tiers, and the channel numbers for the
3 public, education, and government channels shall be the same
4 channel numbers used by the incumbent cable operator, unless
5 prohibited by federal law. After the initial designation of
6 public, education, and government channel numbers, the channel
7 numbers shall not be changed without the agreement of the local
8 unit of government or the entity to which the local unit of
9 government has assigned responsibility for managing public,
10 education, and government access channels, unless the change is
11 required by federal law. Each channel shall be capable of
12 carrying a National Television System Committee (NTSC)
13 television signal.
14     (g) The holder shall provide a listing of public,
15 education, and government channels on channel cards and menus
16 provided to subscribers in a manner equivalent to other
17 channels if the holder uses such cards and menus. Further, the
18 holder shall provide a listing of public, education, and
19 government programming on its electronic program guide if such
20 a guide is utilized by the holder. It is the public, education,
21 and government entity's responsibility to provide the holder or
22 its designated agent, as determined by the holder, with program
23 schedules and information in a timely manner.
24     (h) If less than 3 three public, education, and government
25 channels are provided within the local unit of government as of
26 January 1, 2007, a local unit of government whose jurisdiction

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 744 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 lies within the authorized service area of the holder may
2 initially request the holder to designate sufficient capacity
3 for up to 3 three public, education, and government channels. A
4 local unit of government or its designee that seeks to add
5 additional capacity shall give the holder a written
6 notification specifying the number of additional channels to be
7 used, specifying the number of channels in actual use, and
8 verifying that the additional channels requested will be put
9 into actual use.
10     (i) The holder shall, within 90 days of a request by the
11 local unit of government or its designated public, education,
12 or government access entity, provide sufficient capacity for an
13 additional channel for public, education, and government
14 access when the programming on a given access channel exceeds
15 40 hours per week as measured on a quarterly basis. The
16 additional channel shall not be used for any purpose other than
17 for carrying additional public, education, or government
18 access programming.
19     (j) The public, education, and government access
20 programmer is solely responsible for the content that it
21 provides over designated public, education, or government
22 channels. A holder shall not exercise any editorial control
23 over any programming on any channel designed for public,
24 education, or government use or on any other channel required
25 by law or a binding agreement with the local unit of
26 government.

2 liability for any program carried on any channel designated for
3 public, education, or government use.
4     (l) A court of competent jurisdiction shall have exclusive
5 jurisdiction to enforce any requirement under this Section or
6 resolve any dispute regarding the requirements set forth in

24 providers in its jurisdiction. The applicable requirements for
25 a holder that is using or constructing a cable system shall be

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 755 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

8 access to the public right-of-way on the same terms applicable
9 to other cable service or video service providers or cable
10 operators in its jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any other
11 provisions of law, if a local unit of government is permitted
12 by law to require the holder of a State authorization to seek a
13 permit to install, construct, operate, maintain, or remove its
14 cable service, video service, or telecommunications network
15 within a public right-of-way, those permits shall be deemed
16 granted within 45 days after being submitted, if not otherwise
17 acted upon by the local unit of government, provided the holder
18 complies with the requirements applicable to the holder in its
19 jurisdiction.

2     (d) If a local unit of government imposes a permit fee on
3 incumbent cable operators, it may impose a permit fee on the
4 holder only to the extent it imposes such a fee on incumbent
5 cable operators. In all other cases, these fees may not exceed
6 the actual, direct costs incurred by the local unit of
7 government for issuing the relevant permit. In no event may a
8 fee under this Section be levied if the holder already has paid
9 a permit fee of any kind in connection with the same activity
10 that would otherwise be covered by the permit fee under this
11 Section provided no additional equipment, work, function, or
12 other burden is added to the existing activity for which the
13 permit was issued.
14     (e) Nothing in this Article shall affect the rights that
15 any holder has under Section 4 of the Telephone Line Right of

18 if the holder installs, upgrades, constructs, operates,
19 maintains, and removes facilities or equipment within a public
20 right-of-way to provide cable service or video service, it
21 shall comply with the following:
22         (1) The holder must locate its equipment in the
23     right-of-way as to cause only minimum interference with the

5     limit the visibility of vehicular or and/or pedestrian
6     traffic, or both.
7         (2) The holder shall comply with a local unit of
8     government's reasonable requests to place equipment on
9     public property where possible, and promptly comply with
10     local unit of government direction with respect to the
11     location and screening of equipment and facilities. In
12     constructing or upgrading its cable or video network in the
13     right-of-way, the holder shall use the smallest suitable

1 cable or video providers have customers.
2     (h) To the extent consistent with federal law, cable or
3 video providers shall offer the lowest-cost basic cable or
4 video service as a stand-alone service to residential customers
5 at reasonable rates. Cable or video providers shall not require
6 the subscription to any service other than the lowest-cost
7 basic service or to any telecommunications or information
8 service, as a condition of access to cable or video service,
9 including programming offered on a per channel or per program
10 basis. Cable or video providers shall not discriminate between
11 subscribers to the lowest-cost basic service, subscribers to
12 other cable services or video services, and other subscribers
13 with regard to the rates charged for cable or video programming
14 offered on a per channel or per program basis.
15     (i) To the extent consistent with federal law, cable or
16 video providers shall ensure that charges for changes in the
17 subscriber's selection of services or equipment shall be based
18 on the cost of such change and shall not exceed nominal amounts
19 when the system's configuration permits changes in service tier
20 selection to be effected solely by coded entry on a computer
21 terminal or by other similarly simple method.
22     (j) To the extent consistent with federal law, cable or
23 video providers shall have a rate structure for the provision
24 of cable or video service that is uniform throughout the area
25 within the boundaries of the local unit of government. This
26 subsection (j) is not intended to prohibit bulk discounts to

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 793 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 multiple dwelling units or to prohibit reasonable discounts to
2 senior citizens or other economically disadvantaged groups.
3     (k) To the extent consistent with federal law, cable or
4 video providers shall not charge a subscriber for any service
5 or equipment that the subscriber has not affirmatively
6 requested by name. For purposes of this subsection (k), a
7 subscriber's failure to refuse a cable or video provider's
8 proposal to provide service or equipment shall not be deemed to
9 be an affirmative request for such service or equipment.
10     (l) No contract or service offering cable services or video
11 services or any bundle including such services shall be for a
12 term longer than one year. Any contract or service offering
13 with a term of service that contains an early termination fee
14 shall limit the early termination fee to not more than the
15 amount of the discount reflected in the price for cable
16 services or video services for the period during which the
17 consumer benefited from the discount.
18     (m) Cable or video providers shall not discriminate in the
19 provision of services for the hearing and visually impaired,
20 and shall comply with the accessibility requirements of 47
21 U.S.C. 613. Cable or video providers shall deliver and pick-up,
22 or provide customers with pre-paid shipping and packaging for
23 the return of, converters and other necessary equipment at the

1     (n)(1) To the extent consistent with federal law, cable or
2 video providers shall comply with the provisions of 47 U.S.C.
3 532(h) and (j). The cable or video providers shall not exercise
4 any editorial control over any video programming provided
5 pursuant to this Section, or in any other way consider the
6 content of such programming, except that a cable or video
7 provider may refuse to transmit any leased access program or
8 portion of a leased access program that which contains
9 obscenity, indecency, or nudity and may consider such content
10 to the minimum extent necessary to establish a reasonable price
11 for the commercial use of designated channel capacity by an
12 unaffiliated person. This subsection (n) shall permit cable or
13 video providers to enforce prospectively a written and
14 published policy of prohibiting programming that the cable or
15 video provider reasonably believes describes or depicts sexual
16 or excretory activities or organs in a patently offensive
17 manner as measured by contemporary community standards.
18         (2) Upon customer request, the cable or video provider
19     shall, without charge, fully scramble or otherwise fully
20     block the audio and video programming of each channel
21     carrying such programming so that a person who is not a
22     subscriber does not receive the channel or programming.
23         (3) In providing sexually explicit adult programming
24     or other programming that is indecent on any channel of its
25     service primarily dedicated to sexually oriented
26     programming, the cable or video provider shall fully

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 795 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     scramble or otherwise fully block the video and audio
2     portion of such channel so that a person who is one not a
3     subscriber to such channel or programming does not receive
4     it.
5         (4) Scramble means to rearrange the content of the
6     signal of the programming so that the programming cannot be
7     viewed or heard in an understandable manner.
8     (o) Cable or video providers will maintain a listing,
9 specific to the level of street address, of the areas where its
10 cable or video services are available. Customers who inquire
11 about purchasing cable or video service shall be informed about
12 whether the cable or video provider's cable or video services
13 are currently available to them at their specific location.
14     (p) Privacy protections. Cable or video providers shall not
15 disclose the name, address, telephone number or other
16 personally identifying information of a cable service or video
17 service customer to be used in mailing lists or to be used for
18 other commercial purposes not reasonably related to the conduct
19 of its business unless the cable or video provider has provided
20 to the customer a notice, separately or included in any other
21 customer service notice, that clearly and conspicuously
22 describes the customer's ability to prohibit the disclosure.
23 Cable or video providers shall provide an address and telephone
24 number for a customer to use without a toll charge to prevent
25 disclosure of the customer's name and address in mailing lists
26 or for other commercial purposes not reasonably related to the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 796 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 conduct of its business to other businesses or affiliates of
2 the cable or video provider. Cable or video providers shall
3 comply with the consumer privacy requirements of the
4 Communications Consumer Privacy Act, the Restricted Call
5 Registry Act, and 47 U.S.C. 551 that are in effect as of June
6 30, 2007 (the effective date of Public Act 95-9) this
7 amendatory Act of the 95th General Assembly, and as amended
8 thereafter.
9     (q) Cable or video providers shall implement an informal
10 process for handling inquiries from local units of government
11 and customers concerning billing issues, service issues,
12 privacy concerns, and other consumer complaints. In the event
13 that an issue is not resolved through this informal process, a
14 local unit of government or the customer may request nonbinding
15 mediation with the cable or video provider, with each party to
16 bear its own costs of such mediation. Selection of the mediator
17 will be by mutual agreement, and preference will be given to
18 mediation services that do not charge the consumer for their
19 services. In the event that the informal process does not
20 produce a satisfactory result to the customer or the local unit
21 of government, enforcement may be pursued as provided in
22 subdivision (4) of subsection (r) of this Section (r)(4).
23     (r) The Attorney General and the local unit of government
24 may enforce all of the customer service and privacy protection
25 standards of this Section with respect to complaints received
26 from residents within the local unit of government's

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 797 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 jurisdiction, but it may not adopt or seek to enforce any
2 additional or different customer service or performance
3 standards under any other authority or provision of law.
4         (1) The local unit of government may, by ordinance,
5     provide a schedule of penalties for any material breach of
6     this Section by cable or video providers in addition to the
7     penalties provided herein. No monetary penalties shall be
8     assessed for a material breach if it is out of the
9     reasonable control of the cable or video providers or its
10     affiliate. Monetary penalties adopted in an ordinance
11     pursuant to this Section shall apply on a competitively
12     neutral basis to all providers of cable service or video
13     service within the local unit of government's
14     jurisdiction. In and in no event shall the penalties
15     imposed under this subsection (r) exceed $750 for each day
16     of the material breach, and these penalties shall not
17     exceed $25,000 for each occurrence of a material breach per
18     customer.
19         (2) For purposes of this Section, "material breach"
20     means any substantial failure of a cable or video service
21     provider to comply with service quality and other standards
22     specified in any provision of this Act. The Attorney
23     General or the local unit of government shall give the
24     cable or video provider written notice of any alleged
25     material breaches of this Act and allow such provider at
26     least 30 days from receipt of the notice to remedy the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 798 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     specified material breach.
2         (3) A material breach, for the purposes of assessing
3     penalties, shall be deemed to have occurred for each day
4     that a material breach has not been remedied by the cable
5     service or video service provider after the expiration of
6     the period specified in subdivision (2) of this subsection
7     (r) (r)(2) in each local unit of government's jurisdiction,
8     irrespective of the number of customers affected.
9         (4) Any customer, the Attorney General, or a local unit
10     of government may pursue alleged violations of this Act by
11     the cable or video provider in a court of competent
12     jurisdiction. A cable or video provider may seek judicial
13     review of a decision of a local unit of government imposing
14     penalties in a court of competent jurisdiction. No local
15     unit of government shall be subject to suit for damages or
16     other relief based upon its action in connection with its
17     enforcement or review of any of the terms, conditions, and
18     rights contained in this Act except a court may require the
19     return of any penalty it finds was not properly assessed or
20     imposed.
21     (s) Cable or video providers shall credit customers for
22 violations in the amounts stated herein. The credits shall be
23 applied on the statement issued to the customer for the next
24 monthly billing cycle following the violation or following the
25 discovery of the violation. Cable or video providers are
26 responsible for providing the credits described herein and the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 799 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 customer is under no obligation to request the credit. If the
2 customer is no longer taking service from the cable or video
3 provider, the credit amount will be refunded to the customer by
4 check within 30 days of the termination of service. A local
5 unit of government may, by ordinance, adopt a schedule of
6 credits payable directly to customers for breach of the
7 customer service standards and obligations contained in this
8 Article, provided the schedule of customer credits applies on a
9 competitively neutral basis to all providers of cable service
10 or video service in the local unit of government's jurisdiction
11 and the credits are not greater than the credits provided in
12 this Section.
13         (1) Failure to provide notice of customer service
14     standards upon initiation of service: $25.00.
15         (2) Failure to install service within 7 days: Waiver of
16     50% of the installation fee or the monthly fee for the
17     lowest-cost basic service, whichever is greater. Failure
18     to install service within 14 days: Waiver of 100% of the
19     installation fee or the monthly fee for the lowest-cost
20     basic service, whichever is greater.
21         (3) Failure to remedy service interruptions or poor
22     video or audio service quality within 48 hours: Pro-rata
23     credit of total regular monthly charges equal to the number
24     of days of the service interruption.
25         (4) Failure to keep an appointment or to notify the
26     customer prior to the close of business on the business day

9     Section (h) of this Section: $25.00 per month.
10     (t) The enforcement powers granted to the Attorney General
11 in Article XXI of this the Public Utilities Act shall apply to
12 this Article Act, except that the Attorney General may not seek
13 penalties for violation of this Article Act other than in the
14 amounts specified herein. Nothing in this Section shall limit
15 or affect the powers of the Attorney General to enforce the
16 provisions of Article XXI 21 of this the Public Utilities Act
17 or the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act.
18     (u) This Article Act applies to all cable and video
19 providers in the State, including but not limited to those

21 U.S.C. 522(9), those operating under authorization pursuant to
22 Section 11-42-11 of the Illinois Municipal Code, those
23 operating under authorization pursuant to Section 5-1095 of the

17     (305 ILCS 5/9A-11)  (from Ch. 23, par. 9A-11)
18     Sec. 9A-11. Child Care.
19     (a) The General Assembly recognizes that families with
20 children need child care in order to work. Child care is
21 expensive and families with low incomes, including those who
22 are transitioning from welfare to work, often struggle to pay
23 the costs of day care. The General Assembly understands the
24 importance of helping low income working families become and
25 remain self-sufficient. The General Assembly also believes

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 819 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 that it is the responsibility of families to share in the costs
2 of child care. It is also the preference of the General
3 Assembly that all working poor families should be treated
4 equally, regardless of their welfare status.
5     (b) To the extent resources permit, the Illinois Department
6 shall provide child care services to parents or other relatives
7 as defined by rule who are working or participating in
8 employment or Department approved education or training
9 programs. At a minimum, the Illinois Department shall cover the
10 following categories of families:
11         (1) recipients of TANF under Article IV participating
12     in work and training activities as specified in the
13     personal plan for employment and self-sufficiency;
14         (2) families transitioning from TANF to work;
15         (3) families at risk of becoming recipients of TANF;
16         (4) families with special needs as defined by rule; and
17         (5) working families with very low incomes as defined
18     by rule.
19     The Department shall specify by rule the conditions of
20 eligibility, the application process, and the types, amounts,
21 and duration of services. Eligibility for child care benefits
22 and the amount of child care provided may vary based on family
23 size, income, and other factors as specified by rule.
24     In determining income eligibility for child care benefits,
25 the Department annually, at the beginning of each fiscal year,
26 shall establish, by rule, one income threshold for each family

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 820 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 size, in relation to percentage of State median income for a
2 family of that size, that makes families with incomes below the
3 specified threshold eligible for assistance and families with
4 incomes above the specified threshold ineligible for
5 assistance. Through and including fiscal year 2007, the
6 specified threshold must be no less than 50% of the
7 then-current State median income for each family size.
8 Beginning in fiscal year 2008, the specified threshold must be
9 no less than 185% of the then-current federal poverty level for
10 each family size.
11     In determining eligibility for assistance, the Department
12 shall not give preference to any category of recipients or give
13 preference to individuals based on their receipt of benefits
14 under this Code.
15     The Department shall allocate $7,500,000 annually for a
16 test program for families who are income-eligible for child
17 care assistance, who are not recipients of TANF under Article
18 IV, and who need child care assistance to participate in
19 education and training activities. The Department shall
20 specify by rule the conditions of eligibility for this test
21 program.
22     Nothing in this Section shall be construed as conferring
23 entitlement status to eligible families.
24     The Illinois Department is authorized to lower income
25 eligibility ceilings, raise parent co-payments, create waiting
26 lists, or take such other actions during a fiscal year as are

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 821 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 necessary to ensure that child care benefits paid under this
2 Article do not exceed the amounts appropriated for those child
3 care benefits. These changes may be accomplished by emergency
4 rule under Section 5-45 of the Illinois Administrative
5 Procedure Act, except that the limitation on the number of
6 emergency rules that may be adopted in a 24-month period shall
7 not apply.
8     The Illinois Department may contract with other State
9 agencies or child care organizations for the administration of
10 child care services.
11     (c) Payment shall be made for child care that otherwise
12 meets the requirements of this Section and applicable standards
13 of State and local law and regulation, including any
14 requirements the Illinois Department promulgates by rule in
15 addition to the licensure requirements promulgated by the
16 Department of Children and Family Services and Fire Prevention
17 and Safety requirements promulgated by the Office of the State
18 Fire Marshal and is provided in any of the following:
19         (1) a child care center which is licensed or exempt
20     from licensure pursuant to Section 2.09 of the Child Care
21     Act of 1969;
22         (2) a licensed child care home or home exempt from
23     licensing;
24         (3) a licensed group child care home;
25         (4) other types of child care, including child care
26     provided by relatives or persons living in the same home as

1     the child, as determined by the Illinois Department by
2     rule.
3     (c-5) (b-5) Solely for the purposes of coverage under the
4 Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, child and day care home
5 providers, including licensed and license exempt,
6 participating in the Department's child care assistance
7 program shall be considered to be public employees and the
8 State of Illinois shall be considered to be their employer as
9 of the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 94th
10 General Assembly, but not before. The State shall engage in
11 collective bargaining with an exclusive representative of
12 child and day care home providers participating in the child
13 care assistance program concerning their terms and conditions
14 of employment that are within the State's control. Nothing in
15 this subsection shall be understood to limit the right of
16 families receiving services defined in this Section to select
17 child and day care home providers or supervise them within the
18 limits of this Section. The State shall not be considered to be
19 the employer of child and day care home providers for any
20 purposes not specifically provided in this amendatory Act of
21 the 94th General Assembly, including but not limited to,
22 purposes of vicarious liability in tort and purposes of
23 statutory retirement or health insurance benefits. Child and
24 day care home providers shall not be covered by the State
25 Employees Group Insurance Act of 1971.

2 Relations Act, the State intends that the State action
3 exemption to application of federal and State antitrust laws be
4 fully available to the extent that their activities are
5 authorized by this amendatory Act of the 94th General Assembly.
6     (d) The Illinois Department shall, by rule, require
7 co-payments for child care services by any parent, including
8 parents whose only income is from assistance under this Code.
9 The co-payment shall be assessed based on a sliding scale based
10 on family income, family size, and the number of children in
11 care. Co-payments shall not be increased due solely to a change
12 in the methodology for counting family income.
13     (d-5) The Illinois Department, in consultation with its
14 Child Care and Development Advisory Council, shall develop a
15 plan to revise the child care assistance program's co-payment
16 scale. The plan shall be completed no later than February 1,
17 2008, and shall include:
18         (1) findings as to the percentage of income that the
19     average American family spends on child care and the
20     relative amounts that low-income families and the average
21     American family spend on other necessities of life;
22         (2) recommendations for revising the child care
23     co-payment scale to assure that families receiving child
24     care services from the Department are paying no more than
25     they can reasonably afford;

4     policies that affect the affordability of child care.
5     (e) (Blank).
6     (f) The Illinois Department shall, by rule, set rates to be
7 paid for the various types of child care. Child care may be
8 provided through one of the following methods:
9         (1) arranging the child care through eligible
10     providers by use of purchase of service contracts or
11     vouchers;
12         (2) arranging with other agencies and community
13     volunteer groups for non-reimbursed child care;
14         (3) (blank); or
15         (4) adopting such other arrangements as the Department
16     determines appropriate.
17     (f-5) (Blank).
18     (g) Families eligible for assistance under this Section
19 shall be given the following options:
20         (1) receiving a child care certificate issued by the
21     Department or a subcontractor of the Department that may be
22     used by the parents as payment for child care and
23     development services only; or
24         (2) if space is available, enrolling the child with a
25     child care provider that has a purchase of service contract
26     with the Department or a subcontractor of the Department

1     for the provision of child care and development services.
2     The Department may identify particular priority
3     populations for whom they may request special
4     consideration by a provider with purchase of service
5     contracts, provided that the providers shall be permitted
6     to maintain a balance of clients in terms of household

12 amount of any grant to which that household is entitled shall
13 be an amount equal to 1/12 of the amount to which the claimant
14 would otherwise be entitled as provided in this Section,
15 multiplied by the number of months in which the claimant was 65
16 in the calendar year in which the claim is filed.
17     (a-5) Income eligibility limitation. For purposes of this

26             (B) less than $28,480 for a household containing 2

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 833 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

8         persons; or
9             (C) less than $36,740 for a household containing 3

11     (b) Limitation. Except as otherwise provided in
12 subsections (a) and (f) of this Section, the maximum amount of
13 grant which a claimant is entitled to claim is the amount by
14 which the property taxes accrued which were paid or payable
15 during the last preceding tax year or rent constituting
16 property taxes accrued upon the claimant's residence for the
17 last preceding taxable year exceeds 3 1/2% of the claimant's
18 household income for that year but in no event is the grant to
19 exceed (i) $700 less 4.5% of household income for that year for
20 those with a household income of $14,000 or less or (ii) $70 if
21 household income for that year is more than $14,000.
22     (c) Public aid recipients. If household income in one or

SB2023 Enrolled - 834 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 of Human Services Act) which was determined under regulations
2 of that Department on a measure of need that included an
3 allowance for actual rent or property taxes paid by the
4 recipient of that assistance, the amount of grant to which that
5 household is entitled, except as otherwise provided in
6 subsection (a), shall be the product of (1) the maximum amount
7 computed as specified in subsection (b) of this Section and (2)
8 the ratio of the number of months in which household income did
9 not include such cash assistance over $55 to the number twelve.
10 If household income did not include such cash assistance over
11 $55 for any months during the year, the amount of the grant to
12 which the household is entitled shall be the maximum amount
13 computed as specified in subsection (b) of this Section. For
14 purposes of this paragraph (c), "cash assistance" does not
15 include any amount received under the federal Supplemental
16 Security Income (SSI) program.
17     (d) Joint ownership. If title to the residence is held
18 jointly by the claimant with a person who is not a member of
19 his or her household, the amount of property taxes accrued used
20 in computing the amount of grant to which he or she is entitled
21 shall be the same percentage of property taxes accrued as is
22 the percentage of ownership held by the claimant in the
23 residence.
24     (e) More than one residence. If a claimant has occupied
25 more than one residence in the taxable year, he or she may
26 claim only one residence for any part of a month. In the case

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 835 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 of property taxes accrued, he or she shall prorate 1/12 of the
2 total property taxes accrued on his or her residence to each
3 month that he or she owned and occupied that residence; and, in
4 the case of rent constituting property taxes accrued, shall
5 prorate each month's rent payments to the residence actually
6 occupied during that month.
7     (f) There is hereby established a program of pharmaceutical
8 assistance to the aged and disabled which shall be administered
9 by the Department in accordance with this Act, to consist of
10 payments to authorized pharmacies, on behalf of beneficiaries
11 of the program, for the reasonable costs of covered
12 prescription drugs. Each beneficiary who pays $5 for an
13 identification card shall pay no additional prescription
14 costs. Each beneficiary who pays $25 for an identification card
15 shall pay $3 per prescription. In addition, after a beneficiary
16 receives $2,000 in benefits during a State fiscal year, that
17 beneficiary shall also be charged 20% of the cost of each
18 prescription for which payments are made by the program during
19 the remainder of the fiscal year. To become a beneficiary under
20 this program a person must: (1) be (i) 65 years of age or
21 older, or (ii) the surviving spouse of such a claimant, who at
22 the time of death received or was entitled to receive benefits
23 pursuant to this subsection, which surviving spouse will become
24 65 years of age within the 24 months immediately following the
25 death of such claimant and which surviving spouse but for his
26 or her age is otherwise qualified to receive benefits pursuant

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 836 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 to this subsection, or (iii) disabled, and (2) be domiciled in
2 this State at the time he or she files his or her claim, and (3)
3 have a maximum household income of less than the income
4 eligibility limitation, as defined in subsection (a-5). In
5 addition, each eligible person must (1) obtain an
6 identification card from the Department, (2) at the time the
7 card is obtained, sign a statement assigning to the State of
8 Illinois benefits which may be otherwise claimed under any
9 private insurance plans, and (3) present the identification
10 card to the dispensing pharmacist.
11     The Department may adopt rules specifying participation
12 requirements for the pharmaceutical assistance program,
13 including copayment amounts, identification card fees,
14 expenditure limits, and the benefit threshold after which a 20%
15 charge is imposed on the cost of each prescription, to be in
16 effect on and after July 1, 2004. Notwithstanding any other
17 provision of this paragraph, however, the Department may not
18 increase the identification card fee above the amount in effect
19 on May 1, 2003 without the express consent of the General
20 Assembly. To the extent practicable, those requirements shall
21 be commensurate with the requirements provided in rules adopted
22 by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to
23 implement the pharmacy assistance program under Section
24 5-5.12a of the Illinois Public Aid Code.
25     Whenever a generic equivalent for a covered prescription
26 drug is available, the Department shall reimburse only for the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 837 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 reasonable costs of the generic equivalent, less the co-pay
2 established in this Section, unless (i) the covered
3 prescription drug contains one or more ingredients defined as a
4 narrow therapeutic index drug at 21 CFR 320.33, (ii) the
5 prescriber indicates on the face of the prescription "brand
6 medically necessary", and (iii) the prescriber specifies that a
7 substitution is not permitted. When issuing an oral
8 prescription for covered prescription medication described in
9 item (i) of this paragraph, the prescriber shall stipulate
10 "brand medically necessary" and that a substitution is not
11 permitted. If the covered prescription drug and its authorizing
12 prescription do not meet the criteria listed above, the
13 beneficiary may purchase the non-generic equivalent of the
14 covered prescription drug by paying the difference between the
15 generic cost and the non-generic cost plus the beneficiary
16 co-pay.
17     Any person otherwise eligible for pharmaceutical
18 assistance under this Act whose covered drugs are covered by
19 any public program for assistance in purchasing any covered
20 prescription drugs shall be ineligible for assistance under
21 this Act to the extent such costs are covered by such other
22 plan.
23     The fee to be charged by the Department for the
24 identification card shall be equal to $5 per coverage year for
25 persons below the official poverty line as defined by the
26 United States Department of Health and Human Services and $25

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 838 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 per coverage year for all other persons.
2     In the event that 2 or more persons are eligible for any
3 benefit under this Act, and are members of the same household,
4 (1) each such person shall be entitled to participate in the
5 pharmaceutical assistance program, provided that he or she
6 meets all other requirements imposed by this subsection and (2)
7 each participating household member contributes the fee
8 required for that person by the preceding paragraph for the
9 purpose of obtaining an identification card.
10     The provisions of this subsection (f), other than this
11 paragraph, are inoperative after December 31, 2005.
12 Beneficiaries who received benefits under the program
13 established by this subsection (f) are not entitled, at the
14 termination of the program, to any refund of the identification
15 card fee paid under this subsection.
16     (g) Effective January 1, 2006, there is hereby established
17 a program of pharmaceutical assistance to the aged and
18 disabled, entitled the Illinois Seniors and Disabled Drug
19 Coverage Program, which shall be administered by the Department
20 of Healthcare and Family Services and the Department on Aging
21 in accordance with this subsection, to consist of coverage of
22 specified prescription drugs on behalf of beneficiaries of the
23 program as set forth in this subsection. The program under this
24 subsection replaces and supersedes the program established
25 under subsection (f), which shall end at midnight on December
26 31, 2005.

14     (i) through (iii) is less than 200% of the Federal Poverty
15     Level for any year, the income eligibility limit for that
16     year for households of that size shall be income equal to
17     or less than 200% of the Federal Poverty Level.
18     All individuals enrolled as of December 31, 2005, in the

24     motor vehicle during daylight hours for a period of 12
25     months using vision aid arrangements other than standard

17     (h) Any driver issued a special restricted license as
18 defined in subsection (g) whose privilege to drive during
19 nighttime hours has been suspended due to an accident occurring
20 during nighttime hours may request a hearing as provided in
21 Section 2-118 of this Code to contest that suspension. If it is
22 determined that the accident for which the driver was at fault
23 was not influenced by the driver's use of vision aid
24 arrangements other than standard eyeglasses or contact lenses,
25 the Secretary may reinstate that driver's privilege to drive
26 during nighttime hours.

5     omission of duty and it shall be the duty of the several
6     State's Attorneys to enforce the requirements of this

16 collateral deposited to secure a defendant's appearance in
17 court when forfeiture has not been vacated, or the failure of a

20 conviction.
21     (d) For the purpose of providing the Secretary of State
22 with records necessary to properly monitor and assess driver
23 performance and assist the courts in the proper disposition of
24 repeat traffic law offenders, the clerk of the court shall

9 motor vehicle between the petitioner's residence and
10 petitioner's place of employment or within the scope of the
11 petitioner's employment related duties, or to allow
12 transportation for the petitioner or a household member of the
13 petitioner's family for the receipt of necessary medical care
14 or, if the professional evaluation indicates, provide
15 transportation for the petitioner for alcohol remedial or
16 rehabilitative activity, or for the petitioner to attend
17 classes, as a student, in an accredited educational
18 institution; if the petitioner is able to demonstrate that no
19 alternative means of transportation is reasonably available
20 and the petitioner will not endanger the public safety or
21 welfare; provided that the Secretary's discretion shall be
22 limited to cases where undue hardship would result from a
23 failure to issue the restricted driving permit.
24     If a person's license or permit has been revoked or
25 suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
26 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1006 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 or a similar out-of-state offense, arising out of separate
2 occurrences, that person, if issued a restricted driving
3 permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped
4 with an ignition interlock device as defined in Section
5 1-129.1.
6     If a person's license or permit has been revoked or
7 suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period due to a
8 single conviction of violating Section 11-501 of this Code or a
9 similar provision of a local ordinance or a similar
10 out-of-state offense, and a statutory summary suspension under
11 Section 11-501.1, or 2 or more statutory summary suspensions,
12 or combination of 2 offenses, or of an offense and a statutory
13 summary suspension, arising out of separate occurrences, or if
14 a person has been convicted of one violation of Section 6-303
15 of this Code committed while his or her driver's license,
16 permit, or privilege was revoked because of a violation of
17 Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, relating to the
18 offense of reckless homicide, or a similar provision of a law
19 of another state, that person, if issued a restricted driving
20 permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped
21 with an ignition interlock device as defined in Section
22 1-129.1. The person must pay to the Secretary of State DUI
23 Administration Fund an amount not to exceed $20 per month. The
24 Secretary shall establish by rule the amount and the
25 procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these fees. If
26 the restricted driving permit was issued for employment

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1007 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 purposes, then this provision does not apply to the operation
2 of an occupational vehicle owned or leased by that person's
3 employer. In each case the Secretary of State may issue a
4 restricted driving permit for a period he deems appropriate,
5 except that the permit shall expire within one year from the
6 date of issuance. The Secretary may not, however, issue a
7 restricted driving permit to any person whose current
8 revocation is the result of a second or subsequent conviction
9 for a violation of Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar
10 provision of a local ordinance relating to the offense of
11 operating or being in physical control of a motor vehicle while
12 under the influence of alcohol, other drug or drugs,
13 intoxicating compound or compounds, or any similar
14 out-of-state offense, or any combination thereof, until the
15 expiration of at least one year from the date of the
16 revocation. A restricted driving permit issued under this
17 Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
18 suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and for
19 like cause as a driver's license issued under this Code may be
20 cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a conviction upon
21 one or more offenses against laws or ordinances regulating the
22 movement of traffic shall be deemed sufficient cause for the
23 revocation, suspension, or cancellation of a restricted
24 driving permit. The Secretary of State may, as a condition to
25 the issuance of a restricted driving permit, require the
26 applicant to participate in a designated driver remedial or

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1008 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is authorized to
2 cancel a restricted driving permit if the permit holder does
3 not successfully complete the program. However, if an
4 individual's driving privileges have been revoked in
5 accordance with paragraph 13 of subsection (a) of this Section,
6 no restricted driving permit shall be issued until the
7 individual has served 6 months of the revocation period.
8     (c-5) The Secretary may not issue a restricted driving
9 permit to any person who has been convicted of a second or
10 subsequent violation of Section 6-303 of this Code committed
11 while his or her driver's license, permit, or privilege was
12 revoked because of a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal
13 Code of 1961, relating to the offense of reckless homicide, or
14 a similar provision of a law of another state.
15     (d) Whenever a person under the age of 21 is convicted
16 under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
17 local ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, the
18 Secretary of State shall revoke the driving privileges of that
19 person. One year after the date of revocation, and upon
20 application, the Secretary of State may, if satisfied that the
21 person applying will not endanger the public safety or welfare,
22 issue a restricted driving permit granting the privilege of
23 driving a motor vehicle only between the hours of 5 a.m. and 9
24 p.m. or as otherwise provided by this Section for a period of
25 one year. After this one year period, and upon reapplication
26 for a license as provided in Section 6-106, upon payment of the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1009 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 appropriate reinstatement fee provided under paragraph (b) of
2 Section 6-118, the Secretary of State, in his discretion, may
3 issue the applicant a license, or extend the restricted driving
4 permit as many times as the Secretary of State deems
5 appropriate, by additional periods of not more than 12 months
6 each, until the applicant attains 21 years of age.
7     If a person's license or permit has been revoked or
8 suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
9 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance
10 or a similar out-of-state offense, arising out of separate
11 occurrences, that person, if issued a restricted driving
12 permit, may not operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped
13 with an ignition interlock device as defined in Section
14 1-129.1.
15     If a person's license or permit has been revoked or
16 suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period due to a
17 single conviction of violating Section 11-501 of this Code or a
18 similar provision of a local ordinance or a similar
19 out-of-state offense, and a statutory summary suspension under
20 Section 11-501.1, or 2 or more statutory summary suspensions,
21 or combination of 2 offenses, or of an offense and a statutory
22 summary suspension, arising out of separate occurrences, that
23 person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not operate
24 a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an ignition
25 interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1. The person must
26 pay to the Secretary of State DUI Administration Fund an amount

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1010 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 not to exceed $20 per month. The Secretary shall establish by
2 rule the amount and the procedures, terms, and conditions
3 relating to these fees. If the restricted driving permit was
4 issued for employment purposes, then this provision does not
5 apply to the operation of an occupational vehicle owned or
6 leased by that person's employer. A restricted driving permit
7 issued under this Section shall be subject to cancellation,
8 revocation, and suspension by the Secretary of State in like
9 manner and for like cause as a driver's license issued under
10 this Code may be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that
11 a conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
12 ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be deemed
13 sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension, or
14 cancellation of a restricted driving permit.
15     (d-5) The revocation of the license, permit, or driving
16 privileges of a person convicted of a third or subsequent
17 violation of Section 6-303 of this Code committed while his or
18 her driver's license, permit, or privilege was revoked because
19 of a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961,
20 relating to the offense of reckless homicide, or a similar
21 provision of a law of another state, is permanent. The
22 Secretary may not, at any time, issue a license or permit to
23 that person.
24     (e) This Section is subject to the provisions of the Driver
25 License Compact.
26     (f) Any revocation imposed upon any person under

1 subsections 2 and 3 of paragraph (b) that is in effect on
2 December 31, 1988 shall be converted to a suspension for a like
3 period of time.
4     (g) The Secretary of State shall not issue a restricted
5 driving permit to a person under the age of 16 years whose
6 driving privileges have been revoked under any provisions of
7 this Code.
8     (h) The Secretary of State shall require the use of
9 ignition interlock devices on all vehicles owned by an
10 individual who has been convicted of a second or subsequent
11 offense under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar
12 provision of a local ordinance. The Secretary shall establish
13 by rule and regulation the procedures for certification and use
14 of the interlock system.
15     (i) (Blank).
16     (j) In accordance with 49 C.F.R. 384, the Secretary of
17 State may not issue a restricted driving permit for the
18 operation of a commercial motor vehicle to a person holding a
19 CDL whose driving privileges have been revoked, suspended,
20 cancelled, or disqualified under any provisions of this Code.

6     family for the receipt of necessary medical care or,
7     provide transportation for the petitioner to and from
8     alcohol or drug remedial or rehabilitative activity
9     recommended by a licensed service provider, or for the

12     able to demonstrate that no alternative means of
13     transportation is reasonably available and that the
14     petitioner will not endanger the public safety or welfare;
15     provided that the Secretary's discretion shall be limited
16     to cases where undue hardship, as defined by the rules of
17     the Secretary of State, would result from a failure to

19     offenders identified in subdivision (b)4 of Section 6-208
20     of this Code, however, shall not be eligible for the
21     issuance of a restricted driving permit.
22         (2) If a person's license or permit is revoked or

5     operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
6     ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
7         (3) If:
8             (A) a person's license or permit is revoked or
9         suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period due
10         to any combination of:
11                 (i) (A) a single conviction of violating

1         Code of 1961, relating to the offense of reckless
2         homicide, or a similar provision of a law of another
3         state,

5     operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
6     ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
7     (4) The person must pay to the Secretary of State DUI
8     Administration Fund an amount not to exceed $20 per month.
9     The Secretary shall establish by rule the amount and the
10     procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these fees.
11     (5) If the restricted driving permit is issued for
12     employment purposes, then the prohibition against

14     ignition interlock device does not apply to the operation
15     of an occupational vehicle owned or leased by that person's
16     employer when used solely for employment purposes. (6) In
17     each case the Secretary of State may issue a restricted
18     driving permit for a period he deems appropriate, except
19     that the permit shall expire within one year from the date
20     of issuance. The Secretary may not, however, issue a
21     restricted driving permit to any person whose current
22     revocation is the result of a second or subsequent
23     conviction for a violation of Section 11-501 of this Code
24     or a similar provision of a local ordinance or any similar
25     out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code

1     as an element of the offense, or any similar out-of-state
2     offense, or any combination of these offenses, until the
3     expiration of at least one year from the date of the
4     revocation. A restricted driving permit issued under this
5     Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
6     suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and for
7     like cause as a driver's license issued under this Code may
8     be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a
9     conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
10     ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be
11     deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension, or
12     cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The Secretary
13     of State may, as a condition to the issuance of a
14     restricted driving permit, require the petitioner to
15     participate in a designated driver remedial or
16     rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is
17     authorized to cancel a restricted driving permit if the
18     permit holder does not successfully complete the program.
19     However, if an individual's driving privileges have been
20     revoked in accordance with paragraph 13 of subsection (a)
21     of this Section, no restricted driving permit shall be
22     issued until the individual has served 6 months of the
23     revocation period.
24     (c-5) The Secretary may not issue a restricted driving
25 permit to any person who has been convicted of a second or
26 subsequent violation of Section 6-303 of this Code committed

2 revoked because of a violation of Section 9-3 of the Criminal
3 Code of 1961, relating to the offense of reckless homicide, or
4 a similar provision of a law of another state.
5     (d)(1) Whenever a person under the age of 21 is convicted
6 under Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a
7 local ordinance, or a similar out-of-state offense, the
8 Secretary of State shall revoke the driving privileges of that
9 person. One year after the date of revocation, and upon
10 application, the Secretary of State may, if satisfied that the
11 person applying will not endanger the public safety or welfare,
12 issue a restricted driving permit granting the privilege of
13 driving a motor vehicle only between the hours of 5 a.m. and 9
14 p.m. or as otherwise provided by this Section for a period of
15 one year. After this one year period, and upon reapplication
16 for a license as provided in Section 6-106, upon payment of the
17 appropriate reinstatement fee provided under paragraph (b) of
18 Section 6-118, the Secretary of State, in his discretion, may
19 reinstate the petitioner's driver's license and driving
20 privileges, or extend the restricted driving permit as many
21 times as the Secretary of State deems appropriate, by
22 additional periods of not more than 12 months each.
23         (2) If a person's license or permit is revoked or
24     suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
25     11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
26     ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3

1     of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use of alcohol or
2     other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or a
3     similar out-of-state offense, or a combination of these
4     offenses, arising out of separate occurrences, that
5     person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not
6     operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
7     ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
8         (3) If a person's license or permit is revoked or
9     suspended 2 or more times within a 10 year period due to
10     any combination of:
11             (A) a single conviction of violating Section
12         11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
13         ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or
14         Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use
15         of alcohol or other drugs is recited as an element of
16         the offense, or a similar out-of-state offense; or

23         interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
24         (4) The person must pay to the Secretary of State DUI
25     Administration Fund an amount not to exceed $20 per month.
26     The Secretary shall establish by rule the amount and the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1021 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these fees.
2         (5) If the restricted driving permit is issued for
3     employment purposes, then the prohibition against driving
4     a vehicle that is not equipped with an ignition interlock
5     device does not apply to the operation of an occupational
6     vehicle owned or leased by that person's employer when used
7     solely for employment purposes.
8         (6) A restricted driving permit issued under this
9     Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
10     suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and for
11     like cause as a driver's license issued under this Code may
12     be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a
13     conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
14     ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be

11     relating to the offense of operating or being in physical
12     control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of

23     movement of traffic shall be deemed sufficient cause for
24     the revocation, suspension, or cancellation of a
25     restricted driving permit. The Secretary of State may, as a

4     suspended due to 2 or more convictions of violating Section
5     11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
6     ordinance or a similar out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3
7     of the Criminal Code of 1961, where the use of alcohol or
8     other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or a
9     similar out-of-state offense, or a combination of these
10     offenses, arising out of separate occurrences, that

12     operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an
13     ignition interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1.

11     ignition interlock device does not apply to the operation
12     of an occupational vehicle owned or leased by that person's
13     employer when used solely for employment purposes.

2     Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
3     suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and for

5     be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a
6     conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
7     ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be
8     deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension, or
9     cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The Secretary
10     of State may, as a condition to the issuance of a
11     restricted driving permit, require the applicant to
12     participate in a designated driver remedial or
13     rehabilitative program. The Secretary of State is

10 or she reached the age of 18 years pursuant to any of the
11 provisions of this Section, require the applicant to

22     other drugs is recited as an element of the offense, or a
23     similar out-of-state offense, or a combination of these
24     offenses, arising out of separate occurrences, that
25     person, if issued a restricted driving permit, may not
26     operate a vehicle unless it has been equipped with an

12         11-501.1; or
13             (iii) a suspension under Section 6-203.1, arising
14         out of separate occurrences, that person, if issued a
15         restricted driving permit, may not operate a vehicle
16         unless it has been equipped with an ignition interlock
17         device as defined in Section 1-129.1.
18         (C) The person must pay to the Secretary of State DUI
19     Administration Fund an amount not to exceed $20 per month.
20     The Secretary shall establish by rule the amount and the
21     procedures, terms, and conditions relating to these fees.
22         (D) If the restricted driving permit is issued for
23     employment purposes, then the prohibition against
24     operating a motor vehicle that is not equipped with an
25     ignition interlock device does not apply to the operation
26     of an occupational vehicle owned or leased by that person's

9     or a similar provision of a local ordinance or any similar
10     out-of-state offense, or Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code
11     of 1961, where the use of alcohol or other drugs is recited

13     offense, or any combination of those offenses, until the
14     expiration of at least one year from the date of the
15     revocation. A restricted driving permit issued under this
16     Section shall be subject to cancellation, revocation, and
17     suspension by the Secretary of State in like manner and for
18     like cause as a driver's license issued under this Code may
19     be cancelled, revoked, or suspended; except that a
20     conviction upon one or more offenses against laws or
21     ordinances regulating the movement of traffic shall be
22     deemed sufficient cause for the revocation, suspension, or
23     cancellation of a restricted driving permit. The Secretary
24     of State may, as a condition to the issuance of a
25     restricted driving permit, require the applicant to
26     participate in a designated driver remedial or

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1067 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

7 suspension is in effect, be privileged information and for use
8 only by the courts, police officers, prosecuting authorities,
9 the driver licensing administrator of any other state, or the
10 Secretary of State. However, beginning January 1, 2008, if the
11 person is a CDL holder, the suspension shall also be made

15 request.
16     (c-4) In the case of a suspension under paragraph 43 of
17 subsection (a), the Secretary of State shall notify the person

22 reissuance of a driver's license or permit to an applicant

24 or she reached the age of 18 years pursuant to any of the
25 provisions of this Section, require the applicant to

20     Sec. 6-206.1. Judicial Driving Permit. Declaration of
21 Policy. It is hereby declared a policy of the State of Illinois
22 that the driver who is impaired by alcohol, other drug or
23 drugs, or intoxicating compound or compounds is a threat to the
24 public safety and welfare. Therefore, to provide a deterrent to
25 such practice and to remove problem drivers from the highway, a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1069 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 statutory summary driver's license suspension is appropriate.
2 It is also recognized that driving is a privilege and
3 therefore, that in some cases the granting of limited driving
4 privileges, where consistent with public safety, is warranted
5 during the period of suspension in the form of a judicial
6 driving permit to drive for the purpose of employment,
7 receiving drug treatment or medical care, and educational
8 pursuits, where no alternative means of transportation is
9 available.
10     The following procedures shall apply whenever a first
11 offender is arrested for any offense as defined in Section
12 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance:

15 11-501.1, the first offender as defined in Section 11-500 may
16 petition the circuit court of venue for a Judicial Driving
17 Permit, hereinafter referred as a JDP, to relieve undue
18 hardship. The court may issue a court order, pursuant to the
19 criteria contained in this Section, directing the Secretary of
20 State to issue such a JDP to the petitioner. A JDP shall not
21 become effective prior to the 31st day of the original
22 statutory summary suspension and shall always be subject to the
23 following criteria:
24         1. If ordered for the purposes of employment, the JDP
25     shall be only for the purpose of providing the petitioner
26     the privilege of driving a motor vehicle between the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1070 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     petitioner's residence and the petitioner's place of
2     employment and return; or within the scope of the
3     petitioner's employment related duties, shall be effective
4     only during and limited to those specific times and routes
5     actually required to commute or perform the petitioner's
6     employment related duties.
7         2. The court, by a court order, may also direct the
8     Secretary of State to issue a JDP to allow transportation
9     for the petitioner, or a household member of the
10     petitioner's family, to receive alcohol, drug, or
11     intoxicating compound treatment or medical care, if the
12     petitioner is able to demonstrate that no alternative means
13     of transportation is reasonably available. Such JDP shall
14     be effective only during the specific times actually
15     required to commute.
16         3. The court, by a court order, may also direct the
17     Secretary of State to issue a JDP to allow transportation
18     by the petitioner for educational purposes upon
19     demonstrating that there are no alternative means of
20     transportation reasonably available to accomplish those
21     educational purposes. Such JDP shall be only for the
22     purpose of providing transportation to and from the
23     petitioner's residence and the petitioner's place of
24     educational activity, and only during the specific times
25     and routes actually required to commute or perform the
26     petitioner's educational requirement.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1071 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         4. The Court shall not issue an order granting a JDP
2     to:
3             (i) Any person unless and until the court, after
4         considering the results of a current professional
5         evaluation of the person's alcohol or other drug use by
6         an agency pursuant to Section 15-10 of the Alcoholism
7         and Other Drug Abuse and Dependency Act and other
8         appropriate investigation of the person, is satisfied

10         on the highways will not endanger the public safety or
11         welfare.
12             (ii) Any person who has been convicted of reckless
13         homicide within the previous 5 years.
14             (iii) Any person whose privilege to operate a motor
15         vehicle was invalid at the time of arrest for the
16         current violation of Section 11-501, or a similar
17         provision of a local ordinance, except in cases where
18         the cause for a driver's license suspension has been
19         removed at the time a JDP is effective. In any case,
20         should the Secretary of State enter a suspension or
21         revocation of driving privileges pursuant to the
22         provisions of this Code while the JDP is in effect or
23         pending, the Secretary shall take the prescribed
24         action and provide a notice to the person and the court
25         ordering the issuance of the JDP that all driving
26         privileges, including those provided by the issuance

7     (b) Prior to ordering the issuance of a JDP the Court
8 should consider at least, but not be limited to, the following
9 issues:
10         1. Whether the person is employed and no other means of
11     commuting to the place of employment is available or that
12     the person must drive as a condition of employment. The
13     employer shall certify the hours of employment and the need
14     and parameters necessary for driving as a condition to
15     employment.
16         2. Whether the person must drive to secure alcohol or
17     other medical treatment for himself or a family member.
18         3. Whether the person must drive for educational
19     purposes. The educational institution shall certify the
20     person's enrollment in and academic schedule at the
21     institution.
22         4. Whether the person has been repeatedly convicted of
23     traffic violations or involved in motor vehicle accidents
24     to a degree which indicates disrespect for public safety.
25         5. Whether the person has been convicted of a traffic
26     violation in connection with a traffic accident resulting

10 such evaluations shall be sent to the Secretary of State by the
11 court. However, the evaluation information shall be privileged
12 and only available to courts and to the Secretary of State, but
13 shall not be admissible in the subsequent trial on the
14 underlying charge.
15     (c) The scope of any court order issued for a JDP under
16 this Section shall be limited to the operation of a motor
17 vehicle as provided for in subsection (a) of this Section and
18 shall specify the petitioner's residence, place of employment
19 or location of educational institution, and the scope of job
20 related duties, if relevant. The JDP shall also specify days of
21 the week and specific hours of the day when the petitioner is
22 able to exercise the limited privilege of operating a motor
23 vehicle.
24     (c-1) If the petitioner is issued a citation for a
25 violation of Section 6-303 during the period of a statutory
26 summary suspension entered under Section 11-501.1 of this Code,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1074 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 or if the petitioner is charged with a violation of Section
2 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance or a similar
3 out of state offense which occurs after the current violation
4 of Section 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance,
5 the court may not grant the petitioner a JDP unless the
6 petitioner is acquitted or the citation or complaint is
7 otherwise dismissed.
8     If the petitioner is issued a citation for a violation of
9 Section 6-303 or a violation of Section 11-501 or a similar
10 provision of a local ordinance or a similar out of state
11 offense during the term of the JDP, the officer issuing the
12 citation, or the law enforcement agency employing that officer,
13 shall confiscate the JDP and immediately send the JDP and
14 notice of the citation to the court that ordered the issuance
15 of the JDP. Within 10 days of receipt, the issuing court, upon
16 notice to the petitioner, shall conduct a hearing to consider
17 cancellation of the JDP. If the court enters an order of
18 cancellation, the court shall forward the order to the
19 Secretary of State, and the Secretary shall cancel the JDP and
20 notify the petitioner of the cancellation. If, however, the
21 petitioner is convicted of the offense before the JDP has been
22 cancelled, the court of venue shall send notice of conviction
23 to the court that ordered issuance of the JDP. The court
24 receiving the notice shall immediately enter an order of
25 cancellation and forward the order to the Secretary of State.
26 The Secretary shall cancel the JDP and notify the petitioner of

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1075 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 the cancellation.
2     If the petitioner is issued a citation for any other
3 traffic related offense during the term of the JDP, the officer
4 issuing the citation, or the law enforcement agency employing
5 that officer, shall send notice of the citation to the court
6 that ordered issuance of the JDP. Upon receipt and notice to
7 the petitioner and an opportunity for a hearing, the court
8 shall determine whether the violation constitutes grounds for
9 cancellation of the JDP. If the court enters an order of
10 cancellation, the court shall forward the order to the
11 Secretary of State, and the Secretary shall cancel the JDP and
12 shall notify the petitioner of the cancellation.
13     (d) The Secretary of State shall, upon receiving a court
14 order from the court of venue, issue a JDP to a successful
15 Petitioner under this Section. Such court order form shall also
16 contain a notification, which shall be sent to the Secretary of
17 State, providing the name, driver's license number and legal
18 address of the successful petitioner, and the full and detailed
19 description of the limitations of the JDP. This information
20 shall be available only to the courts, police officers, and the
21 Secretary of State, except during the actual period the JDP is
22 valid, during which time it shall be a public record. The
23 Secretary of State shall design and furnish to the courts an
24 official court order form to be used by the courts when
25 directing the Secretary of State to issue a JDP.
26     Any submitted court order that contains insufficient data

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1076 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 or fails to comply with this Code shall not be utilized for JDP
2 issuance or entered to the driver record but shall be returned
3 to the issuing court indicating why the JDP cannot be so
4 entered. A notice of this action shall also be sent to the JDP
5 petitioner by the Secretary of State.
6     (e) The circuit court of venue may conduct the judicial

8 provided in this Section, concurrently. Such concurrent
9 hearing shall proceed in the court in the same manner as in
10 other civil proceedings.
11     (f) The circuit court of venue may, as a condition of the
12 issuance of a JDP, prohibit the person from operating a motor
13 vehicle not equipped with an ignition interlock device.

17     Sec. 6-206.1. Monitoring Device Driving Permit.
18 Declaration of Policy. It is hereby declared a policy of the
19 State of Illinois that the driver who is impaired by alcohol,
20 other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or compounds is a
21 threat to the public safety and welfare. Therefore, to provide
22 a deterrent to such practice and to remove problem drivers from
23 the highway, a statutory summary driver's license suspension is
24 appropriate. It is also recognized that driving is a privilege
25 and therefore, that the granting of driving privileges, in a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1077 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 manner consistent with public safety, is warranted during the
2 period of suspension in the form of a monitoring device driving
3 permit. A person who drives and fails to comply with the
4 requirements of the monitoring device driving permit commits a
5 violation of Section 6-303 of this Code.
6     The following procedures shall apply whenever a first
7 offender is arrested for any offense as defined in Section
8 11-501 or a similar provision of a local ordinance:
9     (a) Subsequent to a notification of a statutory summary
10 suspension of driving privileges as provided in Section
11 11-501.1, the court, after informing the first offender, as
12 defined in Section 11-500, of his or her right to a monitoring
13 device driving permit, hereinafter referred to as a MDDP, and
14 of the obligations of the MDDP, shall enter an order directing
15 the Secretary of State to issue a MDDP to the offender, unless
16 the offender has opted, in writing, not to have a MDDP issued.
17 However, the court shall not enter the order directing the
18 Secretary of State to issue the MDDP, if the court finds:
19         (1) The offender's driver's license is otherwise
20     invalid;
21         (2) Death or great bodily harm resulted from the arrest
22     for Section 11-501;
23         (3) That the offender has been previously convicted of
24     reckless homicide; or
25         (4) That the offender is less than 18 years of age.
26     Any court order for a MDDP shall order the person to pay

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1078 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 the Secretary of State a MDDP Administration Fee in an amount
2 not to exceed $30 per month. The Secretary shall establish by
3 rule the amount and the procedures, terms, and conditions
4 relating to these fees. The order shall further specify that
5 the offender must have an ignition interlock device installed
6 within 14 days of the date the Secretary issues the MDDP, and
7 shall specify the vehicle in which the device is to be
8 installed. The ignition interlock device provider must notify
9 the Secretary, in a manner and form prescribed by the
10 Secretary, of the installation. If the Secretary does not
11 receive notice of installation, the Secretary shall cancel the
12 MDDP.
13 A MDDP shall not become effective prior to the 31st day of the
14 original statutory summary suspension.
15     (a-1) A person issued a MDDP may drive for any purpose and
16 at any time, subject to the rules adopted by the Secretary of
17 State under subsection (g). The person must, at his or her own
18 expense, drive only vehicles equipped with an ignition
19 interlock device as defined in Section 1-129.1, but in no event
20 shall such person drive a commercial motor vehicle.
21     (a-2) Persons who are issued a MDDP and must drive
22 employer-owned vehicles in the course of their employment
23 duties may seek permission from the court to drive an
24 employer-owned vehicle that does not have an ignition interlock
25 device. The employee shall provide to the court a form,
26 prescribed by the Secretary of State, completed by the employer

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1079 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 verifying that the employee must drive an employer-owned
2 vehicle in the course of employment. If approved by the court,
3 the form must be file stamped and must be in the driver's
4 possession while operating an employer-owner vehicle not
5 equipped with an ignition interlock device. No person may use
6 this exemption to drive a school bus, school vehicle, or a
7 vehicle designed to transport more than 15 passengers. No
8 person may use this exemption to drive an employer-owned motor
9 vehicle that is owned by an entity that is wholly or partially
10 owned by the person holding the MDDP, or by a family member of
11 the person holding the MDDP. No person may use this exemption
12 to drive an employer-owned vehicle that is made available to
13 the employee for personal use. No person may drive the exempted
14 vehicle more than 12 hours per day, 6 days per week.

17     (c-1) If the person is issued a citation for a violation of
18 Section 6-303 or a violation of Section 11-501 or a similar
19 provision of a local ordinance or a similar out of state
20 offense during the term of the MDDP, the officer issuing the
21 citation, or the law enforcement agency employing that officer,
22 shall confiscate the MDDP and immediately send the MDDP and
23 notice of the citation to the court that ordered the issuance
24 of the MDDP. Within 10 days of receipt, the issuing court, upon
25 notice to the person, shall conduct a hearing to consider
26 cancellation of the MDDP. If the court enters an order of

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1080 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 cancellation, the court shall forward the order to the
2 Secretary of State, and the Secretary shall cancel the MDDP and
3 notify the person of the cancellation. If, however, the person
4 is convicted of the offense before the MDDP has been cancelled,
5 the court of venue shall send notice of conviction to the court
6 that ordered issuance of the MDDP. The court receiving the
7 notice shall immediately enter an order of cancellation and
8 forward the order to the Secretary of State. The Secretary
9 shall cancel the MDDP and notify the person of the
10 cancellation.
11     If the person is issued a citation for any other traffic
12 related offense during the term of the MDDP, the officer
13 issuing the citation, or the law enforcement agency employing
14 that officer, shall send notice of the citation to the court
15 that ordered issuance of the MDDP. Upon receipt and notice to
16 the person and an opportunity for a hearing, the court shall
17 determine whether the violation constitutes grounds for
18 cancellation of the MDDP. If the court enters an order of
19 cancellation, the court shall forward the order to the
20 Secretary of State, and the Secretary shall cancel the MDDP and
21 shall notify the person of the cancellation.

23 MDDP is indigent, the court shall provide the person with a
24 written document, in a form prescribed by the Secretary of
25 State, as evidence of that determination, and the person shall
26 provide that written document to an ignition interlock device

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1081 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 provider. The provider shall install an ignition interlock
2 device on that person's vehicle without charge to the person,
3 and seek reimbursement from the Indigent BAIID Fund.
4     (d) The Secretary of State shall, upon receiving a court
5 order from the court of venue, issue a MDDP to a person who
6 applies under this Section. Such court order form shall also
7 contain a notification, which shall be sent to the Secretary of
8 State, providing the name, driver's license number and legal
9 address of the applicant. This information shall be available
10 only to the courts, police officers, and the Secretary of
11 State, except during the actual period the MDDP is valid,
12 during which time it shall be a public record. The Secretary of
13 State shall design and furnish to the courts an official court
14 order form to be used by the courts when directing the
15 Secretary of State to issue a MDDP.

18 MDDP issuance or entered to the driver record but shall be
19 returned to the issuing court indicating why the MDDP cannot be
20 so entered. A notice of this action shall also be sent to the
21 MDDP applicant by the Secretary of State.

9         (1) tampers or attempts to tamper with or circumvent
10     the proper operation of the ignition interlock device;
11         (2) provides valid breath samples that register blood
12     alcohol levels in excess of the number of times allowed

4 beyond the originally imposed summary suspension period,
5 during which time the person shall only be allowed to drive
6 vehicles equipped with an ignition interlock device; provided
7 further there are no limitations on the number of times the
8 summary suspension may be extended. Any person whose summary
9 suspension is extended pursuant to this Section shall have the
10 right to contest the extension through an administrative
11 hearing with the Secretary. If the summary suspension has
12 already terminated prior to the Secretary receiving the
13 monitoring report that shows a violation, the Secretary shall
14 be authorized to suspend the person's driving privileges for 3
15 months. The only permit the person shall be eligible for during

12 interlock device installed, pay 5% of the total gross revenue
13 received for the device into the Indigent BAIID Fund. This 5%
14 shall be clearly indicated as a separate surcharge on each
15 invoice that is issued. The Secretary shall conduct an annual
16 review of the fund to determine whether the surcharge is
17 sufficient to provide for indigent users. The Secretary may
18 increase or decrease this surcharge requirement as needed.
19     (n) Any person or entity that supplies an ignition

6 Secretary shall make payments to such providers every 3 months.
7 If the amount of money in the fund at the time payments are
8 made is not sufficient to pay all requests for reimbursement
9 submitted during that 3 month period, the Secretary shall make

11 considered payment in full for the requests submitted.
12     (p) The Monitoring Device Driving Permit Administration

2     Sec. 11-501.1. Suspension of drivers license; statutory
3 summary alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound
4 or compounds related suspension; implied consent.
5     (a) Any person who drives or is in actual physical control
6 of a motor vehicle upon the public highways of this State shall
7 be deemed to have given consent, subject to the provisions of
8 Section 11-501.2, to a chemical test or tests of blood, breath,
9 or urine for the purpose of determining the content of alcohol,
10 other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or compounds or
11 any combination thereof in the person's blood if arrested, as
12 evidenced by the issuance of a Uniform Traffic Ticket, for any
13 offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a similar provision of
14 a local ordinance, or if arrested for violating Section 11-401.
15 The test or tests shall be administered at the direction of the
16 arresting officer. The law enforcement agency employing the
17 officer shall designate which of the aforesaid tests shall be
18 administered. A urine test may be administered even after a
19 blood or breath test or both has been administered. For
20 purposes of this Section, an Illinois law enforcement officer
21 of this State who is investigating the person for any offense
22 defined in Section 11-501 may travel into an adjoining state,
23 where the person has been transported for medical care, to
24 complete an investigation and to request that the person submit
25 to the test or tests set forth in this Section. The
26 requirements of this Section that the person be arrested are

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1236 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 inapplicable, but the officer shall issue the person a Uniform
2 Traffic Ticket for an offense as defined in Section 11-501 or a
3 similar provision of a local ordinance prior to requesting that
4 the person submit to the test or tests. The issuance of the
5 Uniform Traffic Ticket shall not constitute an arrest, but
6 shall be for the purpose of notifying the person that he or she
7 is subject to the provisions of this Section and of the
8 officer's belief of the existence of probable cause to arrest.
9 Upon returning to this State, the officer shall file the
10 Uniform Traffic Ticket with the Circuit Clerk of the county
11 where the offense was committed, and shall seek the issuance of
12 an arrest warrant or a summons for the person.
13     (b) Any person who is dead, unconscious, or who is
14 otherwise in a condition rendering the person incapable of
15 refusal, shall be deemed not to have withdrawn the consent
16 provided by paragraph (a) of this Section and the test or tests
17 may be administered, subject to the provisions of Section
18 11-501.2.
19     (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided
20 above shall be warned by the law enforcement officer requesting
21 the test that a refusal to submit to the test will result in
22 the statutory summary suspension of the person's privilege to
23 operate a motor vehicle, as provided in Section 6-208.1 of this
24 Code, and will also result in the disqualification of the
25 person's privilege to operate a commercial motor vehicle, as
26 provided in Section 6-514 of this Code, if the person is a CDL

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1237 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 holder. The person shall also be warned by the law enforcement
2 officer that if the person submits to the test or tests
3 provided in paragraph (a) of this Section and the alcohol
4 concentration in the person's blood or breath is 0.08 or
5 greater, or any amount of a drug, substance, or compound
6 resulting from the unlawful use or consumption of cannabis as
7 covered by the Cannabis Control Act, a controlled substance
8 listed in the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, an
9 intoxicating compound listed in the Use of Intoxicating
10 Compounds Act, or methamphetamine as listed in the
11 Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act is
12 detected in the person's blood or urine, a statutory summary
13 suspension of the person's privilege to operate a motor
14 vehicle, as provided in Sections 6-208.1 and 11-501.1 of this
15 Code, and a disqualification of the person's privilege to
16 operate a commercial motor vehicle, as provided in Section
17 6-514 of this Code, if the person is a CDL holder, will be
18 imposed.
19     A person who is under the age of 21 at the time the person
20 is requested to submit to a test as provided above shall, in
21 addition to the warnings provided for in this Section, be
22 further warned by the law enforcement officer requesting the
23 test that if the person submits to the test or tests provided
24 in paragraph (a) of this Section and the alcohol concentration
25 in the person's blood or breath is greater than 0.00 and less
26 than 0.08, a suspension of the person's privilege to operate a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1238 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 motor vehicle, as provided under Sections 6-208.2 and 11-501.8
2 of this Code, will be imposed. The results of this test shall
3 be admissible in a civil or criminal action or proceeding
4 arising from an arrest for an offense as defined in Section
5 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance
6 or pursuant to Section 11-501.4 in prosecutions for reckless
7 homicide brought under the Criminal Code of 1961. These test
8 results, however, shall be admissible only in actions or
9 proceedings directly related to the incident upon which the
10 test request was made.
11     (d) If the person refuses testing or submits to a test that
12 discloses an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more, or any

15 use or consumption of cannabis listed in the Cannabis Control
16 Act, a controlled substance listed in the Illinois Controlled
17 Substances Act, an intoxicating compound listed in the Use of

22 certifying that the test or tests was or were requested under
23 paragraph (a) and the person refused to submit to a test, or
24 tests, or submitted to testing that disclosed an alcohol
25 concentration of 0.08 or more.

7 11-500 of this Code, and is not convicted of a violation of
8 Section 11-501 of this Code or a similar provision of a local
9 ordinance, then reports received by the Secretary of State
10 under this Section shall, except during the actual time the
11 Statutory Summary Suspension is in effect, be privileged
12 information and for use only by the courts, police officers,
13 prosecuting authorities or the Secretary of State. However,
14 beginning January 1, 2008, if the person is a CDL holder, the
15 statutory summary suspension shall also be made available to
16 the driver licensing administrator of any other state, the U.S.
17 Department of Transportation, and the affected driver or motor
18 carrier or prospective motor carrier upon request. Reports
19 received by the Secretary of State under this Section shall
20 also be made available to the parent or guardian of a person
21 under the age of 18 years that holds an instruction permit or a
22 graduated driver's license, regardless of whether the
23 statutory summary suspension is in effect.
24     (f) The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report
25 under paragraph (d) shall serve immediate notice of the
26 statutory summary suspension on the person and the suspension

6 substance listed in the Illinois Controlled Substances Act, an
7 intoxicating compound listed in the Use of Intoxicating
8 Compounds Act, or methamphetamine as listed in the
9 Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act is
10 established by a subsequent analysis of blood or urine
11 collected at the time of arrest, the arresting officer or
12 arresting agency shall give notice as provided in this Section
13 or by deposit in the United States mail of the notice in an

21 prescribed by the Secretary of State, that will allow that
22 person to drive during the periods provided for in paragraph
23 (g). The officer shall immediately forward the driver's license
24 or permit to the circuit court of venue along with the sworn
25 report provided for in paragraph (d).
26     (g) The statutory summary suspension and disqualification

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1241 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

4 for the purpose of determining the alcohol content of the
5 person's blood if arrested, as evidenced by the issuance of a
6 Uniform Traffic Ticket for any violation of the Illinois
7 Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance, if a
8 police officer has probable cause to believe that the driver
9 has consumed any amount of an alcoholic beverage based upon
10 evidence of the driver's physical condition or other first hand
11 knowledge of the police officer. The test or tests shall be
12 administered at the direction of the arresting officer. The law
13 enforcement agency employing the officer shall designate which

15 be administered even after a blood or breath test or both has
16 been administered.
17     (b) A person who is dead, unconscious, or who is otherwise
18 in a condition rendering that person incapable of refusal,
19 shall be deemed not to have withdrawn the consent provided by
20 paragraph (a) of this Section and the test or tests may be
21 administered subject to the following provisions:
22         (i) Chemical analysis of the person's blood, urine,
23     breath, or other bodily substance, to be considered valid
24     under the provisions of this Section, shall have been
25     performed according to standards promulgated by the
26     Department of State Police by an individual possessing a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1243 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     valid permit issued by that Department for this purpose.
2     The Director of State Police is authorized to approve
3     satisfactory techniques or methods, to ascertain the
4     qualifications and competence of individuals to conduct
5     analyses, to issue permits that shall be subject to
6     termination or revocation at the direction of that
7     Department, and to certify the accuracy of breath testing
8     equipment. The Department of State Police shall prescribe
9     regulations as necessary.
10         (ii) When a person submits to a blood test at the
11     request of a law enforcement officer under the provisions
12     of this Section, only a physician authorized to practice
13     medicine, a registered nurse, or other qualified person
14     trained in venipuncture and acting under the direction of a
15     licensed physician may withdraw blood for the purpose of
16     determining the alcohol content therein. This limitation

18         (iii) The person tested may have a physician, qualified
19     technician, chemist, registered nurse, or other qualified
20     person of his or her own choosing administer a chemical
21     test or tests in addition to any test or tests administered
22     at the direction of a law enforcement officer. The failure
23     or inability to obtain an additional test by a person shall
24     not preclude the consideration of the previously performed
25     chemical test.
26         (iv) Upon a request of the person who submits to a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1244 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

2     officer, full information concerning the test or tests
3     shall be made available to the person or that person's
4     attorney.
5         (v) Alcohol concentration means either grams of
6     alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol
7     per 210 liters of breath.
8         (vi) If a driver is receiving medical treatment as a
9     result of a motor vehicle accident, a physician licensed to
10     practice medicine, registered nurse, or other qualified
11     person trained in venipuncture and acting under the
12     direction of a licensed physician shall withdraw blood for
13     testing purposes to ascertain the presence of alcohol upon
14     the specific request of a law enforcement officer. However,
15     that testing shall not be performed until, in the opinion
16     of the medical personnel on scene, the withdrawal can be
17     made without interfering with or endangering the
18     well-being of the patient.
19     (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided
20 above shall be warned by the law enforcement officer requesting
21 the test that a refusal to submit to the test, or submission to
22 the test resulting in an alcohol concentration of more than
23 0.00, may result in the loss of that person's privilege to
24 operate a motor vehicle and may result in the disqualification
25 of the person's privilege to operate a commercial motor
26 vehicle, as provided in Section 6-514 of this Code, if the

7 State, certifying that the test or tests were requested under
8 subsection (a) and the person refused to submit to a test or

10 concentration of more than 0.00. The law enforcement officer
11 shall submit the same sworn report when a person under the age
12 of 21 submits to testing under Section 11-501.1 of this Code
13 and the testing discloses an alcohol concentration of more than
14 0.00 and less than 0.08.
15     Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement
16 officer, the Secretary of State shall enter the suspension and
17 disqualification on the individual's driving record and the
18 suspension and disqualification shall be effective on the 46th
19 day following the date notice of the suspension was given to
20 the person. If this suspension is the individual's first
21 driver's license suspension under this Section, reports
22 received by the Secretary of State under this Section shall,
23 except during the time the suspension is in effect, be
24 privileged information and for use only by the courts, police
25 officers, prosecuting authorities, the Secretary of State, or

SB2023 Enrolled - 1246 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 if the person is a CDL holder, the report of suspension shall
2 also be made available to the driver licensing administrator of
3 any other state, the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the
4 affected driver or motor carrier or prospective motor carrier
5 upon request. Reports received by the Secretary of State under
6 this Section shall also be made available to the parent or
7 guardian of a person under the age of 18 years that holds an
8 instruction permit or a graduated driver's license, regardless
9 of whether the suspension is in effect.
10     The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report
11 shall serve immediate notice of this suspension on the person
12 and the suspension and disqualification shall be effective on
13 the 46th day following the date notice was given.
14     In cases where the blood alcohol concentration of more than
15 0.00 is established by a subsequent analysis of blood or urine,
16 the police officer or arresting agency shall give notice as
17 provided in this Section or by deposit in the United States
18 mail of that notice in an envelope with postage prepaid and
19 addressed to that person at his last known address and the loss
20 of driving privileges shall be effective on the 46th day
21 following the date notice was given.
22     Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement
23 officer, the Secretary of State shall also give notice of the

SB2023 Enrolled - 1247 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 report be defective by not containing sufficient information or
2 be completed in error, the notice of the suspension and
3 disqualification shall not be mailed to the person or entered
4 to the driving record, but rather the sworn report shall be
5 returned to the issuing law enforcement agency.
6     (e) A driver may contest this suspension and
7 disqualification by requesting an administrative hearing with
8 the Secretary of State in accordance with Section 2-118 of this
9 Code. An individual whose blood alcohol concentration is shown
10 to be more than 0.00 is not subject to this Section if he or she
11 consumed alcohol in the performance of a religious service or
12 ceremony. An individual whose blood alcohol concentration is
13 shown to be more than 0.00 shall not be subject to this Section
14 if the individual's blood alcohol concentration resulted only
15 from ingestion of the prescribed or recommended dosage of
16 medicine that contained alcohol. The petition for that hearing
17 shall not stay or delay the effective date of the impending
18 suspension. The scope of this hearing shall be limited to the
19 issues of:
20         (1) whether the police officer had probable cause to
21     believe that the person was driving or in actual physical
22     control of a motor vehicle upon the public highways of the
23     State and the police officer had reason to believe that the
24     person was in violation of any provision of the Illinois
25     Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance;
26     and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1248 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         (2) whether the person was issued a Uniform Traffic
2     Ticket for any violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a
3     similar provision of a local ordinance; and
4         (3) whether the police officer had probable cause to
5     believe that the driver had consumed any amount of an
6     alcoholic beverage based upon the driver's physical
7     actions or other first-hand knowledge of the police
8     officer; and
9         (4) whether the person, after being advised by the
10     officer that the privilege to operate a motor vehicle would
11     be suspended if the person refused to submit to and
12     complete the test or tests, did refuse to submit to or
13     complete the test or tests to determine the person's
14     alcohol concentration; and
15         (5) whether the person, after being advised by the
16     officer that the privileges to operate a motor vehicle
17     would be suspended if the person submits to a chemical test
18     or tests and the test or tests disclose an alcohol
19     concentration of more than 0.00, did submit to and complete
20     the test or tests that determined an alcohol concentration
21     of more than 0.00; and
22         (6) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration
23     of more than 0.00 was based upon the person's consumption
24     of alcohol in the performance of a religious service or
25     ceremony; and
26         (7) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1249 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     of more than 0.00 was based upon the person's consumption
2     of alcohol through ingestion of the prescribed or
3     recommended dosage of medicine.
4     Provided that the petitioner may subpoena the officer, the
5 hearing may be conducted upon a review of the law enforcement
6 officer's own official reports. Failure of the officer to
7 answer the subpoena shall be grounds for a continuance if, in
8 the hearing officer's discretion, the continuance is
9 appropriate. At the conclusion of the hearing held under
10 Section 2-118 of this Code, the Secretary of State may rescind,
11 continue, or modify the suspension and disqualification. If the
12 Secretary of State does not rescind the suspension and
13 disqualification, a restricted driving permit may be granted by
14 the Secretary of State upon application being made and good
15 cause shown. A restricted driving permit may be granted to

18 part (c) of Section 6-206 of this Code. The provisions of item
19 (3) of part (c) of Section 6-206 of this Code and of subsection
20 (f) of that Section shall apply. The Secretary of State shall
21 promulgate rules providing for participation in an alcohol

6 under Section 11-501.1 of this Code. A law enforcement officer
7 may, however, pursue a statutory summary suspension of driving
8 privileges under Section 11-501.1 of this Code if other

1     (Text of Section after amendment by P.A. 95-627)
2     Sec. 11-501.8. Suspension of driver's license; persons
3 under age 21.
4     (a) A person who is less than 21 years of age and who
5 drives or is in actual physical control of a motor vehicle upon
6 the public highways of this State shall be deemed to have given
7 consent to a chemical test or tests of blood, breath, or urine
8 for the purpose of determining the alcohol content of the
9 person's blood if arrested, as evidenced by the issuance of a
10 Uniform Traffic Ticket for any violation of the Illinois
11 Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance, if a
12 police officer has probable cause to believe that the driver
13 has consumed any amount of an alcoholic beverage based upon
14 evidence of the driver's physical condition or other first hand
15 knowledge of the police officer. The test or tests shall be
16 administered at the direction of the arresting officer. The law
17 enforcement agency employing the officer shall designate which
18 of the aforesaid tests shall be administered. A urine test may
19 be administered even after a blood or breath test or both has
20 been administered.
21     (b) A person who is dead, unconscious, or who is otherwise
22 in a condition rendering that person incapable of refusal,
23 shall be deemed not to have withdrawn the consent provided by
24 paragraph (a) of this Section and the test or tests may be
25 administered subject to the following provisions:
26         (i) Chemical analysis of the person's blood, urine,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1252 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     breath, or other bodily substance, to be considered valid
2     under the provisions of this Section, shall have been
3     performed according to standards promulgated by the
4     Department of State Police by an individual possessing a
5     valid permit issued by that Department for this purpose.
6     The Director of State Police is authorized to approve
7     satisfactory techniques or methods, to ascertain the
8     qualifications and competence of individuals to conduct
9     analyses, to issue permits that shall be subject to
10     termination or revocation at the direction of that
11     Department, and to certify the accuracy of breath testing
12     equipment. The Department of State Police shall prescribe
13     regulations as necessary.
14         (ii) When a person submits to a blood test at the
15     request of a law enforcement officer under the provisions
16     of this Section, only a physician authorized to practice
17     medicine, a registered nurse, or other qualified person
18     trained in venipuncture and acting under the direction of a
19     licensed physician may withdraw blood for the purpose of
20     determining the alcohol content therein. This limitation
21     does not apply to the taking of breath or urine specimens.
22         (iii) The person tested may have a physician, qualified
23     technician, chemist, registered nurse, or other qualified
24     person of his or her own choosing administer a chemical
25     test or tests in addition to any test or tests administered
26     at the direction of a law enforcement officer. The failure

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1253 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     or inability to obtain an additional test by a person shall
2     not preclude the consideration of the previously performed
3     chemical test.
4         (iv) Upon a request of the person who submits to a
5     chemical test or tests at the request of a law enforcement
6     officer, full information concerning the test or tests
7     shall be made available to the person or that person's
8     attorney.
9         (v) Alcohol concentration means either grams of
10     alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood or grams of alcohol
11     per 210 liters of breath.
12         (vi) If a driver is receiving medical treatment as a
13     result of a motor vehicle accident, a physician licensed to
14     practice medicine, registered nurse, or other qualified
15     person trained in venipuncture and acting under the
16     direction of a licensed physician shall withdraw blood for
17     testing purposes to ascertain the presence of alcohol upon
18     the specific request of a law enforcement officer. However,
19     that testing shall not be performed until, in the opinion
20     of the medical personnel on scene, the withdrawal can be
21     made without interfering with or endangering the
22     well-being of the patient.
23     (c) A person requested to submit to a test as provided
24 above shall be warned by the law enforcement officer requesting
25 the test that a refusal to submit to the test, or submission to
26 the test resulting in an alcohol concentration of more than

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1254 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 0.00, may result in the loss of that person's privilege to
2 operate a motor vehicle and may result in the disqualification
3 of the person's privilege to operate a commercial motor
4 vehicle, as provided in Section 6-514 of this Code, if the
5 person is a CDL holder. The loss of driving privileges shall be
6 imposed in accordance with Section 6-208.2 of this Code.
7     (d) If the person refuses testing or submits to a test that
8 discloses an alcohol concentration of more than 0.00, the law
9 enforcement officer shall immediately submit a sworn report to
10 the Secretary of State on a form prescribed by the Secretary of
11 State, certifying that the test or tests were requested under
12 subsection (a) and the person refused to submit to a test or
13 tests or submitted to testing which disclosed an alcohol
14 concentration of more than 0.00. The law enforcement officer
15 shall submit the same sworn report when a person under the age
16 of 21 submits to testing under Section 11-501.1 of this Code
17 and the testing discloses an alcohol concentration of more than
18 0.00 and less than 0.08.
19     Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement
20 officer, the Secretary of State shall enter the suspension and
21 disqualification on the individual's driving record and the
22 suspension and disqualification shall be effective on the 46th
23 day following the date notice of the suspension was given to
24 the person. If this suspension is the individual's first
25 driver's license suspension under this Section, reports
26 received by the Secretary of State under this Section shall,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1255 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 except during the time the suspension is in effect, be
2 privileged information and for use only by the courts, police
3 officers, prosecuting authorities, the Secretary of State, or
4 the individual personally. However, beginning January 1, 2008,
5 if the person is a CDL holder, the report of suspension shall
6 also be made available to the driver licensing administrator of
7 any other state, the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the
8 affected driver or motor carrier or prospective motor carrier
9 upon request. Reports received by the Secretary of State under
10 this Section shall also be made available to the parent or
11 guardian of a person under the age of 18 years that holds an
12 instruction permit or a graduated driver's license, regardless
13 of whether the suspension is in effect.
14     The law enforcement officer submitting the sworn report
15 shall serve immediate notice of this suspension on the person
16 and the suspension and disqualification shall be effective on
17 the 46th day following the date notice was given.
18     In cases where the blood alcohol concentration of more than
19 0.00 is established by a subsequent analysis of blood or urine,
20 the police officer or arresting agency shall give notice as
21 provided in this Section or by deposit in the United States
22 mail of that notice in an envelope with postage prepaid and
23 addressed to that person at his last known address and the loss
24 of driving privileges shall be effective on the 46th day
25 following the date notice was given.
26     Upon receipt of the sworn report of a law enforcement

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1256 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 officer, the Secretary of State shall also give notice of the
2 suspension and disqualification to the driver by mailing a
3 notice of the effective date of the suspension and
4 disqualification to the individual. However, should the sworn
5 report be defective by not containing sufficient information or
6 be completed in error, the notice of the suspension and
7 disqualification shall not be mailed to the person or entered
8 to the driving record, but rather the sworn report shall be
9 returned to the issuing law enforcement agency.
10     (e) A driver may contest this suspension and
11 disqualification by requesting an administrative hearing with
12 the Secretary of State in accordance with Section 2-118 of this
13 Code. An individual whose blood alcohol concentration is shown
14 to be more than 0.00 is not subject to this Section if he or she
15 consumed alcohol in the performance of a religious service or
16 ceremony. An individual whose blood alcohol concentration is
17 shown to be more than 0.00 shall not be subject to this Section
18 if the individual's blood alcohol concentration resulted only
19 from ingestion of the prescribed or recommended dosage of
20 medicine that contained alcohol. The petition for that hearing
21 shall not stay or delay the effective date of the impending
22 suspension. The scope of this hearing shall be limited to the
23 issues of:
24         (1) whether the police officer had probable cause to
25     believe that the person was driving or in actual physical
26     control of a motor vehicle upon the public highways of the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1257 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     State and the police officer had reason to believe that the
2     person was in violation of any provision of the Illinois
3     Vehicle Code or a similar provision of a local ordinance;
4     and
5         (2) whether the person was issued a Uniform Traffic
6     Ticket for any violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a
7     similar provision of a local ordinance; and
8         (3) whether the police officer had probable cause to
9     believe that the driver had consumed any amount of an
10     alcoholic beverage based upon the driver's physical
11     actions or other first-hand knowledge of the police
12     officer; and
13         (4) whether the person, after being advised by the
14     officer that the privilege to operate a motor vehicle would
15     be suspended if the person refused to submit to and
16     complete the test or tests, did refuse to submit to or
17     complete the test or tests to determine the person's
18     alcohol concentration; and
19         (5) whether the person, after being advised by the
20     officer that the privileges to operate a motor vehicle
21     would be suspended if the person submits to a chemical test
22     or tests and the test or tests disclose an alcohol
23     concentration of more than 0.00, did submit to and complete
24     the test or tests that determined an alcohol concentration
25     of more than 0.00; and
26         (6) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1258 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     of more than 0.00 was based upon the person's consumption
2     of alcohol in the performance of a religious service or
3     ceremony; and
4         (7) whether the test result of an alcohol concentration
5     of more than 0.00 was based upon the person's consumption
6     of alcohol through ingestion of the prescribed or
7     recommended dosage of medicine.
8     At the conclusion of the hearing held under Section 2-118
9 of this Code, the Secretary of State may rescind, continue, or
10 modify the suspension and disqualification. If the Secretary of
11 State does not rescind the suspension and disqualification, a
12 restricted driving permit may be granted by the Secretary of
13 State upon application being made and good cause shown. A
14 restricted driving permit may be granted to relieve undue
15 hardship by allowing driving for employment, educational, and
16 medical purposes as outlined in item (3) of part (c) of Section
17 6-206 of this Code. The provisions of item (3) of part (c) of
18 Section 6-206 of this Code and of subsection (f) of that
19 Section shall apply. The Secretary of State shall promulgate
20 rules providing for participation in an alcohol education and
21 awareness program or activity, a drug education and awareness
22 program or activity, or both as a condition to the issuance of
23 a restricted driving permit for suspensions imposed under this
24 Section.
25     (f) The results of any chemical testing performed in
26 accordance with subsection (a) of this Section are not

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1259 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 admissible in any civil or criminal proceeding, except that the
2 results of the testing may be considered at a hearing held
3 under Section 2-118 of this Code. However, the results of the
4 testing may not be used to impose driver's license sanctions
5 under Section 11-501.1 of this Code. A law enforcement officer
6 may, however, pursue a statutory summary suspension of driving
7 privileges under Section 11-501.1 of this Code if other
8 physical evidence or first hand knowledge forms the basis of
9 that suspension.
10     (g) This Section applies only to drivers who are under age
11 21 at the time of the issuance of a Uniform Traffic Ticket for
12 a violation of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar provision
13 of a local ordinance, and a chemical test request is made under
14 this Section.
15     (h) The action of the Secretary of State in suspending,
16 revoking, cancelling, or disqualifying any license or permit
17 shall be subject to judicial review in the Circuit Court of
18 Sangamon County or in the Circuit Court of Cook County, and the
19 provisions of the Administrative Review Law and its rules are
20 hereby adopted and shall apply to and govern every action for
21 the judicial review of final acts or decisions of the Secretary
22 of State under this Section.

20     (1) If the court finds that there is not probable cause to

SB2023 Enrolled - 1289 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 court shall state in writing the factual basis supporting its
2 finding and the minor, his or her parent, guardian, custodian
3 and other persons able to give relevant testimony shall be
4 examined before the court. The Department of Children and
5 Family Services shall give testimony concerning indicated
6 reports of abuse and neglect, of which they are aware of
7 through the central registry, involving the minor's parent,
8 guardian or custodian. After such testimony, the court may,
9 consistent with the health, safety and best interests of the
10 minor, enter an order that the minor shall be released upon the
11 request of parent, guardian or custodian if the parent,
12 guardian or custodian appears to take custody. Custodian shall
13 include any agency of the State which has been given custody or
14 wardship of the child. If it is consistent with the health,
15 safety and best interests of the minor, the court may also
16 prescribe shelter care and order that the minor be kept in a
17 suitable place designated by the court or in a shelter care
18 facility designated by the Department of Children and Family
19 Services or a licensed child welfare agency; however, a minor
20 charged with a criminal offense under the Criminal Code of 1961
21 or adjudicated delinquent shall not be placed in the custody of
22 or committed to the Department of Children and Family Services
23 by any court, except a minor less than 13 years of age and
24 committed to the Department of Children and Family Services
25 under Section 5-710 of this Act or a minor for whom an
26 independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency exists,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1290 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 which must be defined by departmental rule. In placing the
2 minor, the Department or other agency shall, to the extent
3 compatible with the court's order, comply with Section 7 of the
4 Children and Family Services Act. In determining the health,
5 safety and best interests of the minor to prescribe shelter
6 care, the court must find that it is a matter of immediate and
7 urgent necessity for the safety and protection of the minor or
8 of the person or property of another that the minor be placed
9 in a shelter care facility or that he or she is likely to flee
10 the jurisdiction of the court, and must further find that
11 reasonable efforts have been made or that, consistent with the
12 health, safety and best interests of the minor, no efforts
13 reasonably can be made to prevent or eliminate the necessity of
14 removal of the minor from his or her home. The court shall
15 require documentation from the Department of Children and
16 Family Services as to the reasonable efforts that were made to
17 prevent or eliminate the necessity of removal of the minor from
18 his or her home or the reasons why no efforts reasonably could
19 be made to prevent or eliminate the necessity of removal. When
20 a minor is placed in the home of a relative, the Department of
21 Children and Family Services shall complete a preliminary
22 background review of the members of the minor's custodian's
23 household in accordance with Section 4.3 of the Child Care Act
24 of 1969 within 90 days of that placement. If the minor is
25 ordered placed in a shelter care facility of the Department of
26 Children and Family Services or a licensed child welfare

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1291 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 agency, the court shall, upon request of the appropriate
2 Department or other agency, appoint the Department of Children
3 and Family Services Guardianship Administrator or other
4 appropriate agency executive temporary custodian of the minor
5 and the court may enter such other orders related to the
6 temporary custody as it deems fit and proper, including the
7 provision of services to the minor or his family to ameliorate
8 the causes contributing to the finding of probable cause or to
9 the finding of the existence of immediate and urgent necessity.
10     Where the Department of Children and Family Services
11 Guardianship Administrator is appointed as the executive
12 temporary custodian, the Department of Children and Family
13 Services shall file with the court and serve on the parties a
14 parent-child visiting plan, within 10 days, excluding weekends
15 and holidays, after the appointment. The parent-child visiting
16 plan shall set out the time and place of visits, the frequency
17 of visits, the length of visits, who shall be present at the
18 visits, and where appropriate, the minor's opportunities to
19 have telephone and mail communication with the parents. For
20 good cause, the court may waive the requirement to file the
21 parent-child visiting plan or extend the time for filing the
22 parent-child visiting plan. Any party may, by motion, request
23 the court to review the parent-child visiting plan to determine
24 whether it is reasonably calculated to expeditiously
25 facilitate the achievement of the permanency goal and is
26 consistent with the minor's best interest. The frequency,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1292 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 duration, and locations of visitation shall be measured by the
2 needs of the child and family, and not by the convenience of
3 Department personnel. Child development principles shall be
4 considered by the court in its analysis of how frequent
5 visitation should be, how long it should last, where it should
6 take place, and who should be present. If upon motion of the
7 party to review the plan and after receiving evidence, the
8 court determines that the parent-child visiting plan is not
9 reasonably calculated to expeditiously facilitate the
10 achievement of the permanency goal or that the restrictions
11 placed on parent-child contact are contrary to the child's best
12 interests, the court shall put in writing the factual basis
13 supporting the determination and enter specific findings based
14 on the evidence. The court shall enter an order for the
15 Department to implement changes to the parent-child visiting
16 plan, consistent with the court's findings. At any stage of
17 proceeding, any party may by motion request the court to enter
18 any orders necessary to implement the parent-child visiting
19 plan. Nothing under this subsection (2) shall restrict the
20 court from granting discretionary authority to the Department
21 to increase opportunities for additional parent-child
22 contacts, without further court orders. Nothing in this
23 subsection (2) shall restrict the Department from immediately
24 restricting or terminating parent-child contact, without
25 either amending the parent-child visiting plan or obtaining a
26 court order, where the Department or its assigns reasonably

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1293 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 believe that continuation of parent-child contact, as set out
2 in the parent-child visiting plan, would be contrary to the
3 child's health, safety, and welfare. The Department shall file
4 with the court and serve on the parties any amendments to the
5 visitation plan within 10 days, excluding weekends and
6 holidays, of the change of the visitation. Any party may, by
7 motion, request the court to review the parent-child visiting
8 plan to determine whether the parent-child visiting plan is
9 reasonably calculated to expeditiously facilitate the
10 achievement of the permanency goal, and is consistent with the
11 minor's health, safety, and best interest.
12     Acceptance of services shall not be considered an admission
13 of any allegation in a petition made pursuant to this Act, nor
14 may a referral of services be considered as evidence in any
15 proceeding pursuant to this Act, except where the issue is
16 whether the Department has made reasonable efforts to reunite
17 the family. In making its findings that it is consistent with
18 the health, safety and best interests of the minor to prescribe
19 shelter care, the court shall state in writing (i) the factual
20 basis supporting its findings concerning the immediate and
21 urgent necessity for the protection of the minor or of the
22 person or property of another and (ii) the factual basis
23 supporting its findings that reasonable efforts were made to
24 prevent or eliminate the removal of the minor from his or her
25 home or that no efforts reasonably could be made to prevent or
26 eliminate the removal of the minor from his or her home. The

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1294 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 parents, guardian, custodian, temporary custodian and minor
2 shall each be furnished a copy of such written findings. The
3 temporary custodian shall maintain a copy of the court order
4 and written findings in the case record for the child. The
5 order together with the court's findings of fact in support
6 thereof shall be entered of record in the court.
7     Once the court finds that it is a matter of immediate and
8 urgent necessity for the protection of the minor that the minor
9 be placed in a shelter care facility, the minor shall not be
10 returned to the parent, custodian or guardian until the court
11 finds that such placement is no longer necessary for the
12 protection of the minor.
13     If the child is placed in the temporary custody of the
14 Department of Children and Family Services for his or her
15 protection, the court shall admonish the parents, guardian,
16 custodian or responsible relative that the parents must
17 cooperate with the Department of Children and Family Services,
18 comply with the terms of the service plans, and correct the
19 conditions which require the child to be in care, or risk
20 termination of their parental rights.
21     (3) If prior to the shelter care hearing for a minor
22 described in Sections 2-3, 2-4, 3-3 and 4-3 the moving party is
23 unable to serve notice on the party respondent, the shelter
24 care hearing may proceed ex-parte. A shelter care order from an
25 ex-parte hearing shall be endorsed with the date and hour of
26 issuance and shall be filed with the clerk's office and entered

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1295 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 of record. The order shall expire after 10 days from the time
2 it is issued unless before its expiration it is renewed, at a
3 hearing upon appearance of the party respondent, or upon an
4 affidavit of the moving party as to all diligent efforts to
5 notify the party respondent by notice as herein prescribed. The
6 notice prescribed shall be in writing and shall be personally
7 delivered to the minor or the minor's attorney and to the last
8 known address of the other person or persons entitled to
9 notice. The notice shall also state the nature of the
10 allegations, the nature of the order sought by the State,
11 including whether temporary custody is sought, and the
12 consequences of failure to appear and shall contain a notice
13 that the parties will not be entitled to further written
14 notices or publication notices of proceedings in this case,
15 including the filing of an amended petition or a motion to
16 terminate parental rights, except as required by Supreme Court
17 Rule 11; and shall explain the right of the parties and the
18 procedures to vacate or modify a shelter care order as provided
19 in this Section. The notice for a shelter care hearing shall be

2     following rights:
3             1. To have a guardian ad litem appointed.
4             2. To be declared competent as a witness and to
5         present testimony concerning:
6                 a. Whether they are abused, neglected or
7             dependent.

11             3. To cross examine witnesses for other parties.
12             4. To obtain an explanation of any proceedings and

16 have actual notice of or was not present at the shelter care
17 hearing, he or she may file an affidavit setting forth these
18 facts, and the clerk shall set the matter for rehearing not
19 later than 48 hours, excluding Sundays and legal holidays,
20 after the filing of the affidavit. At the rehearing, the court
21 shall proceed in the same manner as upon the original hearing.
22     (5) Only when there is reasonable cause to believe that the
23 minor taken into custody is a person described in subsection
24 (3) of Section 5-105 may the minor be kept or detained in a
25 detention home or county or municipal jail. This Section shall
26 in no way be construed to limit subsection (6).

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1299 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     (6) No minor under 16 years of age may be confined in a
2 jail or place ordinarily used for the confinement of prisoners
3 in a police station. Minors under 17 years of age must be kept
4 separate from confined adults and may not at any time be kept
5 in the same cell, room, or yard with adults confined pursuant
6 to the criminal law.
7     (7) If the minor is not brought before a judicial officer
8 within the time period as specified in Section 2-9, the minor
9 must immediately be released from custody.
10     (8) If neither the parent, guardian or custodian appears
11 within 24 hours to take custody of a minor released upon
12 request pursuant to subsection (2) of this Section, then the
13 clerk of the court shall set the matter for rehearing not later
14 than 7 days after the original order and shall issue a summons
15 directed to the parent, guardian or custodian to appear. At the
16 same time the probation department shall prepare a report on
17 the minor. If a parent, guardian or custodian does not appear
18 at such rehearing, the judge may enter an order prescribing
19 that the minor be kept in a suitable place designated by the
20 Department of Children and Family Services or a licensed child
21 welfare agency.
22     (9) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section any
23 interested party, including the State, the temporary
24 custodian, an agency providing services to the minor or family
25 under a service plan pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Abused and
26 Neglected Child Reporting Act, foster parent, or any of their

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1300 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 representatives, on notice to all parties entitled to notice,
2 may file a motion that it is in the best interests of the minor
3 to modify or vacate a temporary custody order on any of the
4 following grounds:
5         (a) It is no longer a matter of immediate and urgent
6     necessity that the minor remain in shelter care; or
7         (b) There is a material change in the circumstances of
8     the natural family from which the minor was removed and the
9     child can be cared for at home without endangering the
10     child's health or safety; or
11         (c) A person not a party to the alleged abuse, neglect
12     or dependency, including a parent, relative or legal
13     guardian, is capable of assuming temporary custody of the
14     minor; or
15         (d) Services provided by the Department of Children and
16     Family Services or a child welfare agency or other service
17     provider have been successful in eliminating the need for
18     temporary custody and the child can be cared for at home
19     without endangering the child's health or safety.
20     In ruling on the motion, the court shall determine whether
21 it is consistent with the health, safety and best interests of
22 the minor to modify or vacate a temporary custody order.
23     The clerk shall set the matter for hearing not later than
24 14 days after such motion is filed. In the event that the court
25 modifies or vacates a temporary custody order but does not
26 vacate its finding of probable cause, the court may order that

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1301 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 appropriate services be continued or initiated in behalf of the
2 minor and his or her family.
3     (10) When the court finds or has found that there is
4 probable cause to believe a minor is an abused minor as
5 described in subsection (2) of Section 2-3 and that there is an
6 immediate and urgent necessity for the abused minor to be
7 placed in shelter care, immediate and urgent necessity shall be
8 presumed for any other minor residing in the same household as
9 the abused minor provided:
10         (a) Such other minor is the subject of an abuse or
11     neglect petition pending before the court; and
12         (b) A party to the petition is seeking shelter care for
13     such other minor.
14     Once the presumption of immediate and urgent necessity has
15 been raised, the burden of demonstrating the lack of immediate
16 and urgent necessity shall be on any party that is opposing
17 shelter care for the other minor.

19     (Text of Section after amendment by P.A. 95-405 and 95-642)
20     Sec. 2-10. Temporary custody hearing. At the appearance of
21 the minor before the court at the temporary custody hearing,
22 all witnesses present shall be examined before the court in
23 relation to any matter connected with the allegations made in
24 the petition.
25     (1) If the court finds that there is not probable cause to

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1302 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 believe that the minor is abused, neglected or dependent it
2 shall release the minor and dismiss the petition.
3     (2) If the court finds that there is probable cause to
4 believe that the minor is abused, neglected or dependent, the
5 court shall state in writing the factual basis supporting its
6 finding and the minor, his or her parent, guardian, custodian
7 and other persons able to give relevant testimony shall be
8 examined before the court. The Department of Children and
9 Family Services shall give testimony concerning indicated
10 reports of abuse and neglect, of which they are aware of
11 through the central registry, involving the minor's parent,
12 guardian or custodian. After such testimony, the court may,
13 consistent with the health, safety and best interests of the
14 minor, enter an order that the minor shall be released upon the
15 request of parent, guardian or custodian if the parent,
16 guardian or custodian appears to take custody. If it is
17 determined that a parent's, guardian's, or custodian's
18 compliance with critical services mitigates the necessity for
19 removal of the minor from his or her home, the court may enter
20 an Order of Protection setting forth reasonable conditions of
21 behavior that a parent, guardian, or custodian must observe for
22 a specified period of time, not to exceed 12 months, without a
23 violation; provided, however, that the 12-month period shall
24 begin anew after any violation. Custodian shall include any
25 agency of the State which has been given custody or wardship of
26 the child. If it is consistent with the health, safety and best

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1303 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 interests of the minor, the court may also prescribe shelter
2 care and order that the minor be kept in a suitable place
3 designated by the court or in a shelter care facility
4 designated by the Department of Children and Family Services or
5 a licensed child welfare agency; however, a minor charged with
6 a criminal offense under the Criminal Code of 1961 or
7 adjudicated delinquent shall not be placed in the custody of or
8 committed to the Department of Children and Family Services by
9 any court, except a minor less than 15 years of age and
10 committed to the Department of Children and Family Services
11 under Section 5-710 of this Act or a minor for whom an
12 independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency exists. An
13 independent basis exists when the allegations or adjudication
14 of abuse, neglect, or dependency do not arise from the same
15 facts, incident, or circumstances which give rise to a charge
16 or adjudication of delinquency.
17     In placing the minor, the Department or other agency shall,
18 to the extent compatible with the court's order, comply with
19 Section 7 of the Children and Family Services Act. In
20 determining the health, safety and best interests of the minor
21 to prescribe shelter care, the court must find that it is a
22 matter of immediate and urgent necessity for the safety and
23 protection of the minor or of the person or property of another
24 that the minor be placed in a shelter care facility or that he
25 or she is likely to flee the jurisdiction of the court, and
26 must further find that reasonable efforts have been made or

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1304 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 that, consistent with the health, safety and best interests of
2 the minor, no efforts reasonably can be made to prevent or
3 eliminate the necessity of removal of the minor from his or her
4 home. The court shall require documentation from the Department
5 of Children and Family Services as to the reasonable efforts
6 that were made to prevent or eliminate the necessity of removal
7 of the minor from his or her home or the reasons why no efforts
8 reasonably could be made to prevent or eliminate the necessity
9 of removal. When a minor is placed in the home of a relative,
10 the Department of Children and Family Services shall complete a
11 preliminary background review of the members of the minor's
12 custodian's household in accordance with Section 4.3 of the
13 Child Care Act of 1969 within 90 days of that placement. If the
14 minor is ordered placed in a shelter care facility of the
15 Department of Children and Family Services or a licensed child
16 welfare agency, the court shall, upon request of the
17 appropriate Department or other agency, appoint the Department
18 of Children and Family Services Guardianship Administrator or
19 other appropriate agency executive temporary custodian of the
20 minor and the court may enter such other orders related to the
21 temporary custody as it deems fit and proper, including the
22 provision of services to the minor or his family to ameliorate
23 the causes contributing to the finding of probable cause or to
24 the finding of the existence of immediate and urgent necessity.
25     Where the Department of Children and Family Services
26 Guardianship Administrator is appointed as the executive

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1305 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 temporary custodian, the Department of Children and Family
2 Services shall file with the court and serve on the parties a
3 parent-child visiting plan, within 10 days, excluding weekends
4 and holidays, after the appointment. The parent-child visiting
5 plan shall set out the time and place of visits, the frequency
6 of visits, the length of visits, who shall be present at the
7 visits, and where appropriate, the minor's opportunities to
8 have telephone and mail communication with the parents. For
9 good cause, the court may waive the requirement to file the
10 parent-child visiting plan or extend the time for filing the
11 parent-child visiting plan. Any party may, by motion, request
12 the court to review the parent-child visiting plan to determine
13 whether it is reasonably calculated to expeditiously
14 facilitate the achievement of the permanency goal and is
15 consistent with the minor's best interest. The frequency,
16 duration, and locations of visitation shall be measured by the
17 needs of the child and family, and not by the convenience of
18 Department personnel. Child development principles shall be
19 considered by the court in its analysis of how frequent
20 visitation should be, how long it should last, where it should
21 take place, and who should be present. If upon motion of the
22 party to review the plan and after receiving evidence, the
23 court determines that the parent-child visiting plan is not
24 reasonably calculated to expeditiously facilitate the
25 achievement of the permanency goal or that the restrictions
26 placed on parent-child contact are contrary to the child's best

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1306 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 interests, the court shall put in writing the factual basis
2 supporting the determination and enter specific findings based
3 on the evidence. The court shall enter an order for the
4 Department to implement changes to the parent-child visiting
5 plan, consistent with the court's findings. At any stage of
6 proceeding, any party may by motion request the court to enter
7 any orders necessary to implement the parent-child visiting
8 plan. Nothing under this subsection (2) shall restrict the
9 court from granting discretionary authority to the Department
10 to increase opportunities for additional parent-child
11 contacts, without further court orders. Nothing in this
12 subsection (2) shall restrict the Department from immediately
13 restricting or terminating parent-child contact, without
14 either amending the parent-child visiting plan or obtaining a
15 court order, where the Department or its assigns reasonably
16 believe that continuation of parent-child contact, as set out
17 in the parent-child visiting plan, would be contrary to the
18 child's health, safety, and welfare. The Department shall file
19 with the court and serve on the parties any amendments to the
20 visitation plan within 10 days, excluding weekends and
21 holidays, of the change of the visitation. Any party may, by
22 motion, request the court to review the parent-child visiting
23 plan to determine whether the parent-child visiting plan is
24 reasonably calculated to expeditiously facilitate the
25 achievement of the permanency goal, and is consistent with the
26 minor's health, safety, and best interest.

1     Acceptance of services shall not be considered an admission
2 of any allegation in a petition made pursuant to this Act, nor
3 may a referral of services be considered as evidence in any
4 proceeding pursuant to this Act, except where the issue is
5 whether the Department has made reasonable efforts to reunite
6 the family. In making its findings that it is consistent with
7 the health, safety and best interests of the minor to prescribe
8 shelter care, the court shall state in writing (i) the factual
9 basis supporting its findings concerning the immediate and
10 urgent necessity for the protection of the minor or of the
11 person or property of another and (ii) the factual basis
12 supporting its findings that reasonable efforts were made to
13 prevent or eliminate the removal of the minor from his or her
14 home or that no efforts reasonably could be made to prevent or
15 eliminate the removal of the minor from his or her home. The
16 parents, guardian, custodian, temporary custodian and minor
17 shall each be furnished a copy of such written findings. The
18 temporary custodian shall maintain a copy of the court order
19 and written findings in the case record for the child. The
20 order together with the court's findings of fact in support
21 thereof shall be entered of record in the court.
22     Once the court finds that it is a matter of immediate and
23 urgent necessity for the protection of the minor that the minor
24 be placed in a shelter care facility, the minor shall not be
25 returned to the parent, custodian or guardian until the court
26 finds that such placement is no longer necessary for the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1308 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 protection of the minor.
2     If the child is placed in the temporary custody of the
3 Department of Children and Family Services for his or her
4 protection, the court shall admonish the parents, guardian,
5 custodian or responsible relative that the parents must
6 cooperate with the Department of Children and Family Services,
7 comply with the terms of the service plans, and correct the
8 conditions which require the child to be in care, or risk
9 termination of their parental rights.
10     (3) If prior to the shelter care hearing for a minor
11 described in Sections 2-3, 2-4, 3-3 and 4-3 the moving party is
12 unable to serve notice on the party respondent, the shelter
13 care hearing may proceed ex-parte. A shelter care order from an
14 ex-parte hearing shall be endorsed with the date and hour of
15 issuance and shall be filed with the clerk's office and entered
16 of record. The order shall expire after 10 days from the time
17 it is issued unless before its expiration it is renewed, at a
18 hearing upon appearance of the party respondent, or upon an
19 affidavit of the moving party as to all diligent efforts to
20 notify the party respondent by notice as herein prescribed. The
21 notice prescribed shall be in writing and shall be personally
22 delivered to the minor or the minor's attorney and to the last
23 known address of the other person or persons entitled to
24 notice. The notice shall also state the nature of the
25 allegations, the nature of the order sought by the State,
26 including whether temporary custody is sought, and the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1309 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 consequences of failure to appear and shall contain a notice
2 that the parties will not be entitled to further written
3 notices or publication notices of proceedings in this case,
4 including the filing of an amended petition or a motion to
5 terminate parental rights, except as required by Supreme Court
6 Rule 11; and shall explain the right of the parties and the
7 procedures to vacate or modify a shelter care order as provided
8 in this Section. The notice for a shelter care hearing shall be
9 substantially as follows:

10     Sec. 2-28. Court review.
11     (1) The court may require any legal custodian or guardian
12 of the person appointed under this Act to report periodically
13 to the court or may cite him into court and require him or his
14 agency, to make a full and accurate report of his or its doings
15 in behalf of the minor. The custodian or guardian, within 10
16 days after such citation, shall make the report, either in
17 writing verified by affidavit or orally under oath in open
18 court, or otherwise as the court directs. Upon the hearing of
19 the report the court may remove the custodian or guardian and
20 appoint another in his stead or restore the minor to the
21 custody of his parents or former guardian or custodian.
22 However, custody of the minor shall not be restored to any
23 parent, guardian or legal custodian in any case in which the
24 minor is found to be neglected or abused under Section 2-3 or
25 dependent under Section 2-4 of this Act, unless the minor can

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1316 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 be cared for at home without endangering the minor's health or
2 safety and it is in the best interests of the minor, and if
3 such neglect, abuse, or dependency is found by the court under
4 paragraph (1) of Section 2-21 of this Act to have come about
5 due to the acts or omissions or both of such parent, guardian
6 or legal custodian, until such time as an investigation is made
7 as provided in paragraph (5) and a hearing is held on the issue
8 of the fitness of such parent, guardian or legal custodian to
9 care for the minor and the court enters an order that such
10 parent, guardian or legal custodian is fit to care for the
11 minor.
12     (2) The first permanency hearing shall be conducted by the
13 judge. Subsequent permanency hearings may be heard by a judge
14 or by hearing officers appointed or approved by the court in
15 the manner set forth in Section 2-28.1 of this Act. The initial
16 hearing shall be held (a) within 12 months from the date
17 temporary custody was taken, (b) if the parental rights of both
18 parents have been terminated in accordance with the procedure
19 described in subsection (5) of Section 2-21, within 30 days of
20 the order for termination of parental rights and appointment of
21 a guardian with power to consent to adoption, or (c) in
22 accordance with subsection (2) of Section 2-13.1. Subsequent
23 permanency hearings shall be held every 6 months or more
24 frequently if necessary in the court's determination following
25 the initial permanency hearing, in accordance with the
26 standards set forth in this Section, until the court determines

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1317 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 that the plan and goal have been achieved. Once the plan and
2 goal have been achieved, if the minor remains in substitute
3 care, the case shall be reviewed at least every 6 months
4 thereafter, subject to the provisions of this Section, unless
5 the minor is placed in the guardianship of a suitable relative
6 or other person and the court determines that further
7 monitoring by the court does not further the health, safety or
8 best interest of the child and that this is a stable permanent
9 placement. The permanency hearings must occur within the time
10 frames set forth in this subsection and may not be delayed in
11 anticipation of a report from any source or due to the agency's
12 failure to timely file its written report (this written report
13 means the one required under the next paragraph and does not
14 mean the service plan also referred to in that paragraph).
15     The public agency that is the custodian or guardian of the
16 minor, or another agency responsible for the minor's care,
17 shall ensure that all parties to the permanency hearings are
18 provided a copy of the most recent service plan prepared within
19 the prior 6 months at least 14 days in advance of the hearing.
20 If not contained in the plan, the agency shall also include a
21 report setting forth (i) any special physical, psychological,
22 educational, medical, emotional, or other needs of the minor or
23 his or her family that are relevant to a permanency or
24 placement determination and (ii) for any minor age 16 or over,
25 a written description of the programs and services that will
26 enable the minor to prepare for independent living. The

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1318 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 agency's written report must detail what progress or lack of
2 progress the parent has made in correcting the conditions
3 requiring the child to be in care; whether the child can be
4 returned home without jeopardizing the child's health, safety,
5 and welfare, and if not, what permanency goal is recommended to
6 be in the best interests of the child, and why the other
7 permanency goals are not appropriate. The caseworker must
8 appear and testify at the permanency hearing. If a permanency
9 hearing has not previously been scheduled by the court, the
10 moving party shall move for the setting of a permanency hearing
11 and the entry of an order within the time frames set forth in
12 this subsection.
13     At the permanency hearing, the court shall determine the
14 future status of the child. The court shall set one of the
15 following permanency goals:
16         (A) The minor will be returned home by a specific date
17     within 5 months.
18         (B) The minor will be in short-term care with a
19     continued goal to return home within a period not to exceed
20     one year, where the progress of the parent or parents is
21     substantial giving particular consideration to the age and
22     individual needs of the minor.
23         (B-1) The minor will be in short-term care with a
24     continued goal to return home pending a status hearing.
25     When the court finds that a parent has not made reasonable
26     efforts or reasonable progress to date, the court shall

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1319 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     identify what actions the parent and the Department must
2     take in order to justify a finding of reasonable efforts or
3     reasonable progress and shall set a status hearing to be
4     held not earlier than 9 months from the date of
5     adjudication nor later than 11 months from the date of
6     adjudication during which the parent's progress will again
7     be reviewed.
8         (C) The minor will be in substitute care pending court
9     determination on termination of parental rights.
10         (D) Adoption, provided that parental rights have been
11     terminated or relinquished.
12         (E) The guardianship of the minor will be transferred
13     to an individual or couple on a permanent basis provided
14     that goals (A) through (D) have been ruled out.
15         (F) The minor over age 15 will be in substitute care
16     pending independence.
17         (G) The minor will be in substitute care because he or
18     she cannot be provided for in a home environment due to
19     developmental disabilities or mental illness or because he
20     or she is a danger to self or others, provided that goals
21     (A) through (D) have been ruled out.
22     In selecting any permanency goal, the court shall indicate
23 in writing the reasons the goal was selected and why the
24 preceding goals were ruled out. Where the court has selected a
25 permanency goal other than (A), (B), or (B-1), the Department
26 of Children and Family Services shall not provide further

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1320 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 reunification services, but shall provide services consistent
2 with the goal selected.
3     The court shall set a permanency goal that is in the best
4 interest of the child. In determining that goal, the court
5 shall consult with the minor in an age-appropriate manner
6 regarding the proposed permanency or transition plan for the
7 minor. The court's determination shall include the following
8 factors:
9         (1) Age of the child.
10         (2) Options available for permanence, including both
11     out-of-State and in-State placement options.
12         (3) Current placement of the child and the intent of
13     the family regarding adoption.
14         (4) Emotional, physical, and mental status or
15     condition of the child.
16         (5) Types of services previously offered and whether or
17     not the services were successful and, if not successful,
18     the reasons the services failed.
19         (6) Availability of services currently needed and
20     whether the services exist.
21         (7) Status of siblings of the minor.
22     The court shall consider (i) the permanency goal contained
23 in the service plan, (ii) the appropriateness of the services
24 contained in the plan and whether those services have been
25 provided, (iii) whether reasonable efforts have been made by
26 all the parties to the service plan to achieve the goal, and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1321 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 (iv) whether the plan and goal have been achieved. All evidence
2 relevant to determining these questions, including oral and
3 written reports, may be admitted and may be relied on to the
4 extent of their probative value.
5     If the goal has been achieved, the court shall enter orders
6 that are necessary to conform the minor's legal custody and
7 status to those findings.
8     If, after receiving evidence, the court determines that the
9 services contained in the plan are not reasonably calculated to
10 facilitate achievement of the permanency goal, the court shall
11 put in writing the factual basis supporting the determination
12 and enter specific findings based on the evidence. The court
13 also shall enter an order for the Department to develop and
14 implement a new service plan or to implement changes to the
15 current service plan consistent with the court's findings. The
16 new service plan shall be filed with the court and served on
17 all parties within 45 days of the date of the order. The court
18 shall continue the matter until the new service plan is filed.
19 Unless otherwise specifically authorized by law, the court is
20 not empowered under this subsection (2) or under subsection (3)
21 to order specific placements, specific services, or specific
22 service providers to be included in the plan.
23     A guardian or custodian appointed by the court pursuant to
24 this Act shall file updated case plans with the court every 6
25 months.
26     Rights of wards of the court under this Act are enforceable

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1322 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 against any public agency by complaints for relief by mandamus
2 filed in any proceedings brought under this Act.
3     (3) Following the permanency hearing, the court shall enter
4 a written order that includes the determinations required under
5 subsection (2) of this Section and sets forth the following:
6         (a) The future status of the minor, including the
7     permanency goal, and any order necessary to conform the
8     minor's legal custody and status to such determination; or
9         (b) If the permanency goal of the minor cannot be
10     achieved immediately, the specific reasons for continuing
11     the minor in the care of the Department of Children and
12     Family Services or other agency for short term placement,
13     and the following determinations:
14             (i) (Blank).
15             (ii) Whether the services required by the court and
16         by any service plan prepared within the prior 6 months
17         have been provided and (A) if so, whether the services
18         were reasonably calculated to facilitate the
19         achievement of the permanency goal or (B) if not
20         provided, why the services were not provided.
21             (iii) Whether the minor's placement is necessary,
22         and appropriate to the plan and goal, recognizing the
23         right of minors to the least restrictive (most
24         family-like) setting available and in close proximity
25         to the parents' home consistent with the health,
26         safety, best interest and special needs of the minor

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1323 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         and, if the minor is placed out-of-State, whether the
2         out-of-State placement continues to be appropriate and
3         consistent with the health, safety, and best interest
4         of the minor.
5             (iv) (Blank).
6             (v) (Blank).
7     (4) The minor or any person interested in the minor may
8 apply to the court for a change in custody of the minor and the
9 appointment of a new custodian or guardian of the person or for
10 the restoration of the minor to the custody of his parents or
11 former guardian or custodian.
12     When return home is not selected as the permanency goal:
13         (a) The Department, the minor, or the current foster
14     parent or relative caregiver seeking private guardianship
15     may file a motion for private guardianship of the minor.
16     Appointment of a guardian under this Section requires
17     approval of the court.
18         (b) The State's Attorney may file a motion to terminate
19     parental rights of any parent who has failed to make
20     reasonable efforts to correct the conditions which led to
21     the removal of the child or reasonable progress toward the
22     return of the child, as defined in subdivision (D)(m) of
23     Section 1 of the Adoption Act or for whom any other
24     unfitness ground for terminating parental rights as
25     defined in subdivision (D) of Section 1 of the Adoption Act
26     exists.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1324 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     Custody of the minor shall not be restored to any parent,
2 guardian or legal custodian in any case in which the minor is
3 found to be neglected or abused under Section 2-3 or dependent
4 under Section 2-4 of this Act, unless the minor can be cared
5 for at home without endangering his or her health or safety and
6 it is in the best interest of the minor, and if such neglect,
7 abuse, or dependency is found by the court under paragraph (1)
8 of Section 2-21 of this Act to have come about due to the acts
9 or omissions or both of such parent, guardian or legal
10 custodian, until such time as an investigation is made as
11 provided in paragraph (5) and a hearing is held on the issue of
12 the health, safety and best interest of the minor and the
13 fitness of such parent, guardian or legal custodian to care for
14 the minor and the court enters an order that such parent,
15 guardian or legal custodian is fit to care for the minor. In
16 the event that the minor has attained 18 years of age and the
17 guardian or custodian petitions the court for an order
18 terminating his guardianship or custody, guardianship or
19 custody shall terminate automatically 30 days after the receipt
20 of the petition unless the court orders otherwise. No legal
21 custodian or guardian of the person may be removed without his
22 consent until given notice and an opportunity to be heard by
23 the court.
24     When the court orders a child restored to the custody of
25 the parent or parents, the court shall order the parent or
26 parents to cooperate with the Department of Children and Family

1 Services and comply with the terms of an after-care plan, or
2 risk the loss of custody of the child and possible termination
3 of their parental rights. The court may also enter an order of
4 protective supervision in accordance with Section 2-24.
5     (5) Whenever a parent, guardian, or legal custodian files a
6 motion for restoration of custody of the minor, and the minor
7 was adjudicated neglected, abused, or dependent as a result of
8 physical abuse, the court shall cause to be made an
9 investigation as to whether the movant has ever been charged
10 with or convicted of any criminal offense which would indicate
11 the likelihood of any further physical abuse to the minor.
12 Evidence of such criminal convictions shall be taken into
13 account in determining whether the minor can be cared for at
14 home without endangering his or her health or safety and
15 fitness of the parent, guardian, or legal custodian.
16         (a) Any agency of this State or any subdivision thereof
17     shall co-operate with the agent of the court in providing
18     any information sought in the investigation.
19         (b) The information derived from the investigation and

9     (1) The following kinds of sentencing orders may be made in
10 respect of wards of the court:
11         (a) Except as provided in Sections 5-805, 5-810, 5-815,
12     a minor who is found guilty under Section 5-620 may be:
13             (i) put on probation or conditional discharge and
14         released to his or her parents, guardian or legal
15         custodian, provided, however, that any such minor who
16         is not committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice
17         under this subsection and who is found to be a
18         delinquent for an offense which is first degree murder,
19         a Class X felony, or a forcible felony shall be placed
20         on probation;
21             (ii) placed in accordance with Section 5-740, with
22         or without also being put on probation or conditional
23         discharge;

25         assessment conducted by a licensed provider and

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1327 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         participate in the indicated clinical level of care;
2             (iv) placed in the guardianship of the Department
3         of Children and Family Services, but only if the
4         delinquent minor is under 13 years of age;
5             (v) placed in detention for a period not to exceed
6         30 days, either as the exclusive order of disposition
7         or, where appropriate, in conjunction with any other
8         order of disposition issued under this paragraph,
9         provided that any such detention shall be in a juvenile
10         detention home and the minor so detained shall be 10
11         years of age or older. However, the 30-day limitation
12         may be extended by further order of the court for a
13         minor under age 13 committed to the Department of
14         Children and Family Services if the court finds that
15         the minor is a danger to himself or others. The minor
16         shall be given credit on the sentencing order of
17         detention for time spent in detention under Sections
18         5-501, 5-601, 5-710, or 5-720 of this Article as a
19         result of the offense for which the sentencing order
20         was imposed. The court may grant credit on a sentencing
21         order of detention entered under a violation of
22         probation or violation of conditional discharge under
23         Section 5-720 of this Article for time spent in
24         detention before the filing of the petition alleging
25         the violation. A minor shall not be deprived of credit
26         for time spent in detention before the filing of a

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1328 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         violation of probation or conditional discharge
2         alleging the same or related act or acts;
3             (vi) ordered partially or completely emancipated
4         in accordance with the provisions of the Emancipation
5         of Minors Act;
6             (vii) subject to having his or her driver's license
7         or driving privileges suspended for such time as
8         determined by the court but only until he or she
9         attains 18 years of age;
10             (viii) put on probation or conditional discharge
11         and placed in detention under Section 3-6039 of the
12         Counties Code for a period not to exceed the period of
13         incarceration permitted by law for adults found guilty
14         of the same offense or offenses for which the minor was
15         adjudicated delinquent, and in any event no longer than
16         upon attainment of age 21; this subdivision (viii)
17         notwithstanding any contrary provision of the law; or
18             (ix) ordered to undergo a medical or other
19         procedure to have a tattoo symbolizing allegiance to a
20         street gang removed from his or her body.
21         (b) A minor found to be guilty may be committed to the
22     Department of Juvenile Justice under Section 5-750 if the
23     minor is 13 years of age or older, provided that the
24     commitment to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be
25     made only if a term of incarceration is permitted by law
26     for adults found guilty of the offense for which the minor

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1329 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     was adjudicated delinquent. The time during which a minor
2     is in custody before being released upon the request of a
3     parent, guardian or legal custodian shall be considered as
4     time spent in detention.
5         (c) When a minor is found to be guilty for an offense
6     which is a violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances
7     Act, the Cannabis Control Act, or the Methamphetamine
8     Control and Community Protection Act and made a ward of the
9     court, the court may enter a disposition order requiring
10     the minor to undergo assessment, counseling or treatment in
11     a substance abuse program approved by the Department of
12     Human Services.
13     (2) Any sentencing order other than commitment to the
14 Department of Juvenile Justice may provide for protective
15 supervision under Section 5-725 and may include an order of
16 protection under Section 5-730.
17     (3) Unless the sentencing order expressly so provides, it
18 does not operate to close proceedings on the pending petition,
19 but is subject to modification until final closing and
20 discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-750.
21     (4) In addition to any other sentence, the court may order
22 any minor found to be delinquent to make restitution, in
23 monetary or non-monetary form, under the terms and conditions
24 of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code of Corrections, except
25 that the "presentencing hearing" referred to in that Section
26 shall be the sentencing hearing for purposes of this Section.

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1330 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 The parent, guardian or legal custodian of the minor may be
2 ordered by the court to pay some or all of the restitution on
3 the minor's behalf, pursuant to the Parental Responsibility
4 Law. The State's Attorney is authorized to act on behalf of any
5 victim in seeking restitution in proceedings under this
6 Section, up to the maximum amount allowed in Section 5 of the
7 Parental Responsibility Law.
8     (5) Any sentencing order where the minor is committed or
9 placed in accordance with Section 5-740 shall provide for the
10 parents or guardian of the estate of the minor to pay to the
11 legal custodian or guardian of the person of the minor such
12 sums as are determined by the custodian or guardian of the
13 person of the minor as necessary for the minor's needs. The
14 payments may not exceed the maximum amounts provided for by
15 Section 9.1 of the Children and Family Services Act.
16     (6) Whenever the sentencing order requires the minor to
17 attend school or participate in a program of training, the
18 truant officer or designated school official shall regularly
19 report to the court if the minor is a chronic or habitual
20 truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
21     (7) In no event shall a guilty minor be committed to the
22 Department of Juvenile Justice for a period of time in excess
23 of that period for which an adult could be committed for the
24 same act.
25     (8) A minor found to be guilty for reasons that include a
26 violation of Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 shall

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1331 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

5 that was caused by the violation or similar damage to property
6 located in the municipality or county in which the violation
7 occurred. The order may be in addition to any other order
8 authorized by this Section.
9     (8.5) A minor found to be guilty for reasons that include a
10 violation of Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 of the Humane Care
11 for Animals Act or paragraph (d) of subsection (1) of Section
12 21-1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 shall be ordered to undergo
13 medical or psychiatric treatment rendered by a psychiatrist or
14 psychological treatment rendered by a clinical psychologist.
15 The order may be in addition to any other order authorized by
16 this Section.
17     (9) In addition to any other sentencing order, the court
18 shall order any minor found to be guilty for an act which would
19 constitute, predatory criminal sexual assault of a child,
20 aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault,
21 aggravated criminal sexual abuse, or criminal sexual abuse if
22 committed by an adult to undergo medical testing to determine
23 whether the defendant has any sexually transmissible disease
24 including a test for infection with human immunodeficiency
25 virus (HIV) or any other identified causative agency of
26 acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Any medical test

1 shall be performed only by appropriately licensed medical
2 practitioners and may include an analysis of any bodily fluids
3 as well as an examination of the minor's person. Except as
4 otherwise provided by law, the results of the test shall be
5 kept strictly confidential by all medical personnel involved in
6 the testing and must be personally delivered in a sealed
7 envelope to the judge of the court in which the sentencing
8 order was entered for the judge's inspection in camera. Acting
9 in accordance with the best interests of the victim and the
10 public, the judge shall have the discretion to determine to
11 whom the results of the testing may be revealed. The court
12 shall notify the minor of the results of the test for infection
13 with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The court shall
14 also notify the victim if requested by the victim, and if the
15 victim is under the age of 15 and if requested by the victim's
16 parents or legal guardian, the court shall notify the victim's
17 parents or the legal guardian, of the results of the test for
18 infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The

20 testing and counseling at the Department of Public Health
21 facilities to all parties to whom the results of the testing
22 are revealed. The court shall order that the cost of any test

26 shall, before entering a sentencing order under this Section,

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1333 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 make a finding whether the offense committed either: (a) was
2 related to or in furtherance of the criminal activities of an
3 organized gang or was motivated by the minor's membership in or
4 allegiance to an organized gang, or (b) involved a violation of
5 subsection (a) of Section 12-7.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961,
6 a violation of any Section of Article 24 of the Criminal Code
7 of 1961, or a violation of any statute that involved the
8 wrongful use of a firearm. If the court determines the question
9 in the affirmative, and the court does not commit the minor to
10 the Department of Juvenile Justice, the court shall order the
11 minor to perform community service for not less than 30 hours
12 nor more than 120 hours, provided that community service is
13 available in the jurisdiction and is funded and approved by the
14 county board of the county where the offense was committed. The
15 community service shall include, but need not be limited to,
16 the cleanup and repair of any damage caused by a violation of
17 Section 21-1.3 of the Criminal Code of 1961 and similar damage
18 to property located in the municipality or county in which the
19 violation occurred. When possible and reasonable, the
20 community service shall be performed in the minor's
21 neighborhood. This order shall be in addition to any other
22 order authorized by this Section except for an order to place
23 the minor in the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
24 For the purposes of this Section, "organized gang" has the
25 meaning ascribed to it in Section 10 of the Illinois Streetgang

2     (Text of Section after amendment by P.A. 95-337 and 95-642)
3     Sec. 5-710. Kinds of sentencing orders.
4     (1) The following kinds of sentencing orders may be made in
5 respect of wards of the court:
6         (a) Except as provided in Sections 5-805, 5-810, 5-815,
7     a minor who is found guilty under Section 5-620 may be:
8             (i) put on probation or conditional discharge and
9         released to his or her parents, guardian or legal
10         custodian, provided, however, that any such minor who
11         is not committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice
12         under this subsection and who is found to be a
13         delinquent for an offense which is first degree murder,
14         a Class X felony, or a forcible felony shall be placed
15         on probation;
16             (ii) placed in accordance with Section 5-740, with
17         or without also being put on probation or conditional
18         discharge;
19             (iii) required to undergo a substance abuse
20         assessment conducted by a licensed provider and
21         participate in the indicated clinical level of care;
22             (iv) placed in the guardianship of the Department
23         of Children and Family Services, but only if the
24         delinquent minor is under 15 years of age or, pursuant
25         to Article II of this Act, a minor for whom an

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1335 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         independent basis of abuse, neglect, or dependency
2         exists. An independent basis exists when the
3         allegations or adjudication of abuse, neglect, or
4         dependency do not arise from the same facts, incident,
5         or circumstances which give rise to a charge or
6         adjudication of delinquency;
7             (v) placed in detention for a period not to exceed
8         30 days, either as the exclusive order of disposition
9         or, where appropriate, in conjunction with any other
10         order of disposition issued under this paragraph,
11         provided that any such detention shall be in a juvenile
12         detention home and the minor so detained shall be 10
13         years of age or older. However, the 30-day limitation
14         may be extended by further order of the court for a
15         minor under age 15 committed to the Department of
16         Children and Family Services if the court finds that
17         the minor is a danger to himself or others. The minor
18         shall be given credit on the sentencing order of
19         detention for time spent in detention under Sections
20         5-501, 5-601, 5-710, or 5-720 of this Article as a
21         result of the offense for which the sentencing order
22         was imposed. The court may grant credit on a sentencing
23         order of detention entered under a violation of
24         probation or violation of conditional discharge under
25         Section 5-720 of this Article for time spent in
26         detention before the filing of the petition alleging

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1336 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         the violation. A minor shall not be deprived of credit
2         for time spent in detention before the filing of a
3         violation of probation or conditional discharge
4         alleging the same or related act or acts;
5             (vi) ordered partially or completely emancipated
6         in accordance with the provisions of the Emancipation
7         of Minors Act;
8             (vii) subject to having his or her driver's license
9         or driving privileges suspended for such time as
10         determined by the court but only until he or she
11         attains 18 years of age;
12             (viii) put on probation or conditional discharge
13         and placed in detention under Section 3-6039 of the
14         Counties Code for a period not to exceed the period of
15         incarceration permitted by law for adults found guilty
16         of the same offense or offenses for which the minor was
17         adjudicated delinquent, and in any event no longer than
18         upon attainment of age 21; this subdivision (viii)
19         notwithstanding any contrary provision of the law; or
20             (ix) ordered to undergo a medical or other
21         procedure to have a tattoo symbolizing allegiance to a
22         street gang removed from his or her body.
23         (b) A minor found to be guilty may be committed to the
24     Department of Juvenile Justice under Section 5-750 if the
25     minor is 13 years of age or older, provided that the
26     commitment to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1337 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     made only if a term of incarceration is permitted by law
2     for adults found guilty of the offense for which the minor
3     was adjudicated delinquent. The time during which a minor
4     is in custody before being released upon the request of a
5     parent, guardian or legal custodian shall be considered as
6     time spent in detention.
7         (c) When a minor is found to be guilty for an offense
8     which is a violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances
9     Act, the Cannabis Control Act, or the Methamphetamine
10     Control and Community Protection Act and made a ward of the
11     court, the court may enter a disposition order requiring
12     the minor to undergo assessment, counseling or treatment in
13     a substance abuse program approved by the Department of
14     Human Services.
15     (2) Any sentencing order other than commitment to the
16 Department of Juvenile Justice may provide for protective
17 supervision under Section 5-725 and may include an order of
18 protection under Section 5-730.
19     (3) Unless the sentencing order expressly so provides, it
20 does not operate to close proceedings on the pending petition,
21 but is subject to modification until final closing and
22 discharge of the proceedings under Section 5-750.
23     (4) In addition to any other sentence, the court may order
24 any minor found to be delinquent to make restitution, in
25 monetary or non-monetary form, under the terms and conditions
26 of Section 5-5-6 of the Unified Code of Corrections, except

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1338 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 that the "presentencing hearing" referred to in that Section
2 shall be the sentencing hearing for purposes of this Section.
3 The parent, guardian or legal custodian of the minor may be
4 ordered by the court to pay some or all of the restitution on
5 the minor's behalf, pursuant to the Parental Responsibility
6 Law. The State's Attorney is authorized to act on behalf of any
7 victim in seeking restitution in proceedings under this
8 Section, up to the maximum amount allowed in Section 5 of the
9 Parental Responsibility Law.
10     (5) Any sentencing order where the minor is committed or
11 placed in accordance with Section 5-740 shall provide for the
12 parents or guardian of the estate of the minor to pay to the
13 legal custodian or guardian of the person of the minor such
14 sums as are determined by the custodian or guardian of the
15 person of the minor as necessary for the minor's needs. The
16 payments may not exceed the maximum amounts provided for by
17 Section 9.1 of the Children and Family Services Act.
18     (6) Whenever the sentencing order requires the minor to
19 attend school or participate in a program of training, the
20 truant officer or designated school official shall regularly
21 report to the court if the minor is a chronic or habitual
22 truant under Section 26-2a of the School Code.
23     (7) In no event shall a guilty minor be committed to the
24 Department of Juvenile Justice for a period of time in excess
25 of that period for which an adult could be committed for the
26 same act.

SB2023 Enrolled - 1489 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     paragraph (4.1) of this subsection (a) shall be evaluated
2     by the Department on the basis of documented standards. The
3     Department shall report the results of these evaluations to
4     the Governor and the General Assembly by September 30th of
5     each year. The reports shall include data relating to the
6     recidivism rate among program participants.
7         Availability of these programs shall be subject to the
8     limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the General
9     Assembly for these purposes. Eligible inmates who are
10     denied immediate admission shall be placed on a waiting
11     list under criteria established by the Department. The
12     inability of any inmate to become engaged in any such
13     programs by reason of insufficient program resources or for
14     any other reason established under the rules and
15     regulations of the Department shall not be deemed a cause
16     of action under which the Department or any employee or
17     agent of the Department shall be liable for damages to the
18     inmate.
19         (4.1) The rules and regulations shall also provide that
20     an additional 60 days of good conduct credit shall be
21     awarded to any prisoner who passes the high school level
22     Test of General Educational Development (GED) while the
23     prisoner is incarcerated. The good conduct credit awarded
24     under this paragraph (4.1) shall be in addition to, and
25     shall not affect, the award of good conduct under any other
26     paragraph of this Section, but shall also be pursuant to

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1490 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     the guidelines and restrictions set forth in paragraph (4)
2     of subsection (a) of this Section. The good conduct credit
3     provided for in this paragraph shall be available only to
4     those prisoners who have not previously earned a high
5     school diploma or a GED. If, after an award of the GED good
6     conduct credit has been made and the Department determines
7     that the prisoner was not eligible, then the award shall be
8     revoked.
9         (4.5) The rules and regulations on early release shall
10     also provide that when the court's sentencing order
11     recommends a prisoner for substance abuse treatment and the
12     crime was committed on or after September 1, 2003 (the
13     effective date of Public Act 93-354), the prisoner shall
14     receive no good conduct credit awarded under clause (3) of
15     this subsection (a) unless he or she participates in and
16     completes a substance abuse treatment program. The
17     Director may waive the requirement to participate in or
18     complete a substance abuse treatment program and award the
19     good conduct credit in specific instances if the prisoner
20     is not a good candidate for a substance abuse treatment
21     program for medical, programming, or operational reasons.
22     Availability of substance abuse treatment shall be subject
23     to the limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the
24     General Assembly for these purposes. If treatment is not
25     available and the requirement to participate and complete
26     the treatment has not been waived by the Director, the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1491 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     prisoner shall be placed on a waiting list under criteria
2     established by the Department. The Director may allow a
3     prisoner placed on a waiting list to participate in and
4     complete a substance abuse education class or attend
5     substance abuse self-help meetings in lieu of a substance
6     abuse treatment program. A prisoner on a waiting list who
7     is not placed in a substance abuse program prior to release
8     may be eligible for a waiver and receive good conduct
9     credit under clause (3) of this subsection (a) at the
10     discretion of the Director.
11         (5) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate
12     earlier than it otherwise would because of a grant of good
13     conduct credit for meritorious service given at any time
14     during the term, the Department shall give reasonable
15     advance notice of the impending release to the State's
16     Attorney of the county where the prosecution of the inmate
17     took place.
18     (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
19 several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
20 shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
21 forfeiting of good time.
22     (c) The Department shall prescribe rules and regulations
23 for revoking good conduct credit, or suspending or reducing the
24 rate of accumulation of good conduct credit for specific rule
25 violations, during imprisonment. These rules and regulations
26 shall provide that no inmate may be penalized more than one

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1492 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 year of good conduct credit for any one infraction.
2     When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend or reduce the
3 rate of accumulation of any good conduct credits for an alleged
4 infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges therefor
5 against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of good conduct
6 credits before the Prisoner Review Board as provided in
7 subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code, if the
8 amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days or when during any 12
9 month period, the cumulative amount of credit revoked exceeds
10 30 days except where the infraction is committed or discovered
11 within 60 days of scheduled release. In those cases, the
12 Department of Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of good
13 conduct credit. The Board may subsequently approve the
14 revocation of additional good conduct credit, if the Department
15 seeks to revoke good conduct credit in excess of 30 days.
16 However, the Board shall not be empowered to review the
17 Department's decision with respect to the loss of 30 days of
18 good conduct credit within any calendar year for any prisoner
19 or to increase any penalty beyond the length requested by the
20 Department.
21     The Director of the Department of Corrections, in
22 appropriate cases, may restore up to 30 days good conduct
23 credits which have been revoked, suspended or reduced. Any
24 restoration of good conduct credits in excess of 30 days shall
25 be subject to review by the Prisoner Review Board. However, the
26 Board may not restore good conduct credit in excess of the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1493 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 amount requested by the Director.
2     Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the
3 Prisoner Review Board from ordering, pursuant to Section
4 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up to one year of the
5 sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the
6 accumulation of good conduct credit.
7     (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or
8 federal court against the State, the Department of Corrections,
9 or the Prisoner Review Board, or against any of their officers
10 or employees, and the court makes a specific finding that a
11 pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the prisoner is
12 frivolous, the Department of Corrections shall conduct a
13 hearing to revoke up to 180 days of good conduct credit by
14 bringing charges against the prisoner sought to be deprived of
15 the good conduct credits before the Prisoner Review Board as
16 provided in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code.
17 If the prisoner has not accumulated 180 days of good conduct
18 credit at the time of the finding, then the Prisoner Review
19 Board may revoke all good conduct credit accumulated by the
20 prisoner.
21     For purposes of this subsection (d):
22         (1) "Frivolous" means that a pleading, motion, or other
23     filing which purports to be a legal document filed by a
24     prisoner in his or her lawsuit meets any or all of the
25     following criteria:
26             (A) it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1494 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1         fact;
2             (B) it is being presented for any improper purpose,
3         such as to harass or to cause unnecessary delay or
4         needless increase in the cost of litigation;
5             (C) the claims, defenses, and other legal
6         contentions therein are not warranted by existing law
7         or by a nonfrivolous argument for the extension,
8         modification, or reversal of existing law or the
9         establishment of new law;
10             (D) the allegations and other factual contentions
11         do not have evidentiary support or, if specifically so
12         identified, are not likely to have evidentiary support
13         after a reasonable opportunity for further
14         investigation or discovery; or
15             (E) the denials of factual contentions are not
16         warranted on the evidence, or if specifically so

11     by the Department on the basis of documented standards. The

16         Availability of these programs shall be subject to the
17     limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the General
18     Assembly for these purposes. Eligible inmates who are
19     denied immediate admission shall be placed on a waiting
20     list under criteria established by the Department. The
21     inability of any inmate to become engaged in any such
22     programs by reason of insufficient program resources or for
23     any other reason established under the rules and
24     regulations of the Department shall not be deemed a cause
25     of action under which the Department or any employee or

SB2023 Enrolled - 1505 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     inmate.
2         (4.1) The rules and regulations shall also provide that
3     an additional 60 days of good conduct credit shall be
4     awarded to any prisoner who passes the high school level
5     Test of General Educational Development (GED) while the
6     prisoner is incarcerated. The good conduct credit awarded
7     under this paragraph (4.1) shall be in addition to, and
8     shall not affect, the award of good conduct under any other
9     paragraph of this Section, but shall also be pursuant to
10     the guidelines and restrictions set forth in paragraph (4)
11     of subsection (a) of this Section. The good conduct credit
12     provided for in this paragraph shall be available only to
13     those prisoners who have not previously earned a high
14     school diploma or a GED. If, after an award of the GED good
15     conduct credit has been made and the Department determines
16     that the prisoner was not eligible, then the award shall be
17     revoked.
18         (4.5) The rules and regulations on early release shall
19     also provide that when the court's sentencing order
20     recommends a prisoner for substance abuse treatment and the
21     crime was committed on or after September 1, 2003 (the
22     effective date of Public Act 93-354), the prisoner shall
23     receive no good conduct credit awarded under clause (3) of
24     this subsection (a) unless he or she participates in and
25     completes a substance abuse treatment program. The
26     Director may waive the requirement to participate in or

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1506 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     complete a substance abuse treatment program and award the
2     good conduct credit in specific instances if the prisoner
3     is not a good candidate for a substance abuse treatment
4     program for medical, programming, or operational reasons.
5     Availability of substance abuse treatment shall be subject
6     to the limits of fiscal resources appropriated by the
7     General Assembly for these purposes. If treatment is not
8     available and the requirement to participate and complete
9     the treatment has not been waived by the Director, the
10     prisoner shall be placed on a waiting list under criteria
11     established by the Department. The Director may allow a
12     prisoner placed on a waiting list to participate in and
13     complete a substance abuse education class or attend
14     substance abuse self-help meetings in lieu of a substance
15     abuse treatment program. A prisoner on a waiting list who
16     is not placed in a substance abuse program prior to release
17     may be eligible for a waiver and receive good conduct
18     credit under clause (3) of this subsection (a) at the
19     discretion of the Director.
20         (4.6) The rules and regulations on early release shall
21     also provide that a prisoner who has been convicted of a
22     sex offense as defined in Section 2 of the Sex Offender
23     Registration Act shall receive no good conduct credit
24     unless he or she either has successfully completed or is
25     participating in sex offender treatment as defined by the
26     Sex Offender Management Board. However, prisoners who are

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1507 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     waiting to receive such treatment, but who are unable to do
2     so due solely to the lack of resources on the part of the
3     Department, may, at the Director's sole discretion, be
4     awarded good conduct credit at such rate as the Director
5     shall determine.
6         (5) Whenever the Department is to release any inmate
7     earlier than it otherwise would because of a grant of good
8     conduct credit for meritorious service given at any time
9     during the term, the Department shall give reasonable
10     advance notice of the impending release to the State's
11     Attorney of the county where the prosecution of the inmate
12     took place.
13     (b) Whenever a person is or has been committed under
14 several convictions, with separate sentences, the sentences
15 shall be construed under Section 5-8-4 in granting and
16 forfeiting of good time.
17     (c) The Department shall prescribe rules and regulations
18 for revoking good conduct credit, or suspending or reducing the
19 rate of accumulation of good conduct credit for specific rule
20 violations, during imprisonment. These rules and regulations
21 shall provide that no inmate may be penalized more than one
22 year of good conduct credit for any one infraction.
23     When the Department seeks to revoke, suspend or reduce the
24 rate of accumulation of any good conduct credits for an alleged
25 infraction of its rules, it shall bring charges therefor
26 against the prisoner sought to be so deprived of good conduct

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1508 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 credits before the Prisoner Review Board as provided in
2 subparagraph (a)(4) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code, if the
3 amount of credit at issue exceeds 30 days or when during any 12
4 month period, the cumulative amount of credit revoked exceeds
5 30 days except where the infraction is committed or discovered
6 within 60 days of scheduled release. In those cases, the
7 Department of Corrections may revoke up to 30 days of good
8 conduct credit. The Board may subsequently approve the
9 revocation of additional good conduct credit, if the Department
10 seeks to revoke good conduct credit in excess of 30 days.
11 However, the Board shall not be empowered to review the
12 Department's decision with respect to the loss of 30 days of
13 good conduct credit within any calendar year for any prisoner
14 or to increase any penalty beyond the length requested by the
15 Department.
16     The Director of the Department of Corrections, in
17 appropriate cases, may restore up to 30 days good conduct
18 credits which have been revoked, suspended or reduced. Any
19 restoration of good conduct credits in excess of 30 days shall
20 be subject to review by the Prisoner Review Board. However, the
21 Board may not restore good conduct credit in excess of the
22 amount requested by the Director.
23     Nothing contained in this Section shall prohibit the
24 Prisoner Review Board from ordering, pursuant to Section
25 3-3-9(a)(3)(i)(B), that a prisoner serve up to one year of the
26 sentence imposed by the court that was not served due to the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1509 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 accumulation of good conduct credit.
2     (d) If a lawsuit is filed by a prisoner in an Illinois or
3 federal court against the State, the Department of Corrections,
4 or the Prisoner Review Board, or against any of their officers
5 or employees, and the court makes a specific finding that a
6 pleading, motion, or other paper filed by the prisoner is
7 frivolous, the Department of Corrections shall conduct a
8 hearing to revoke up to 180 days of good conduct credit by
9 bringing charges against the prisoner sought to be deprived of
10 the good conduct credits before the Prisoner Review Board as
11 provided in subparagraph (a)(8) of Section 3-3-2 of this Code.
12 If the prisoner has not accumulated 180 days of good conduct
13 credit at the time of the finding, then the Prisoner Review
14 Board may revoke all good conduct credit accumulated by the
15 prisoner.
16     For purposes of this subsection (d):
17         (1) "Frivolous" means that a pleading, motion, or other
18     filing which purports to be a legal document filed by a
19     prisoner in his or her lawsuit meets any or all of the
20     following criteria:
21             (A) it lacks an arguable basis either in law or in
22         fact;
23             (B) it is being presented for any improper purpose,
24         such as to harass or to cause unnecessary delay or

21 comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall recommit the defendant

12 educational training shall not be deemed a wilful failure to
13 comply. The Prisoner Review Board shall recommit the defendant
14 whose mandatory supervised release term has been revoked under

13         Otherwise, the defendant shall be sentenced as
14     provided in this Chapter V.

7     Sec. 5-6-1. Sentences of Probation and of Conditional
8 Discharge and Disposition of Supervision. The General Assembly
9 finds that in order to protect the public, the criminal justice
10 system must compel compliance with the conditions of probation
11 by responding to violations with swift, certain and fair
12 punishments and intermediate sanctions. The Chief Judge of each
13 circuit shall adopt a system of structured, intermediate
14 sanctions for violations of the terms and conditions of a
15 sentence of probation, conditional discharge or disposition of
16 supervision.
17     (a) Except where specifically prohibited by other
18 provisions of this Code, the court shall impose a sentence of
19 probation or conditional discharge upon an offender unless,
20 having regard to the nature and circumstance of the offense,
21 and to the history, character and condition of the offender,
22 the court is of the opinion that:
23         (1) his imprisonment or periodic imprisonment is
24     necessary for the protection of the public; or
25         (2) probation or conditional discharge would deprecate

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1575 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1     the seriousness of the offender's conduct and would be
2     inconsistent with the ends of justice; or
3         (3) a combination of imprisonment with concurrent or
4     consecutive probation when an offender has been admitted
5     into a drug court program under Section 20 of the Drug
6     Court Treatment Act is necessary for the protection of the
7     public and for the rehabilitation of the offender.
8     The court shall impose as a condition of a sentence of
9 probation, conditional discharge, or supervision, that the
10 probation agency may invoke any sanction from the list of
11 intermediate sanctions adopted by the chief judge of the
12 circuit court for violations of the terms and conditions of the
13 sentence of probation, conditional discharge, or supervision,
14 subject to the provisions of Section 5-6-4 of this Act.
15     (b) The court may impose a sentence of conditional
16 discharge for an offense if the court is of the opinion that
17 neither a sentence of imprisonment nor of periodic imprisonment
18 nor of probation supervision is appropriate.
19     (b-1) Subsections (a) and (b) of this Section do not apply
20 to a defendant charged with a misdemeanor or felony under the
21 Illinois Vehicle Code or reckless homicide under Section 9-3 of
22 the Criminal Code of 1961 if the defendant within the past 12
23 months has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor
24 or felony under the Illinois Vehicle Code or reckless homicide
25 under Section 9-3 of the Criminal Code of 1961.
26     (c) The court may, upon a plea of guilty or a stipulation

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1576 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 by the defendant of the facts supporting the charge or a
2 finding of guilt, defer further proceedings and the imposition
3 of a sentence, and enter an order for supervision of the

5 misdemeanor, as defined by the following provisions of the
6 Criminal Code of 1961: Sections 11-9.1; 12-3.2; 12-15; 26-5;

8 paragraph (1) through (5), (8), (10), and (11) of subsection
9 (a) of Section 24-1; (ii) a Class A misdemeanor violation of
10 Section 3.01, 3.03-1, or 4.01 of the Humane Care for Animals
11 Act; or (iii) felony. If the defendant is not barred from
12 receiving an order for supervision as provided in this
13 subsection, the court may enter an order for supervision after
14 considering the circumstances of the offense, and the history,
15 character and condition of the offender, if the court is of the
16 opinion that:
17         (1) the offender is not likely to commit further
18     crimes;
19         (2) the defendant and the public would be best served
20     if the defendant were not to receive a criminal record; and
21         (3) in the best interests of justice an order of
22     supervision is more appropriate than a sentence otherwise
23     permitted under this Code.

12 of the circuit court. The clerk of the circuit court shall pay
13 all moneys collected from these fees to the county treasurer
14 who shall use the moneys collected to defray the costs of drug
15 testing, alcohol testing, and electronic monitoring. The

2 supervision of a probation or court services department after
3 January 1, 2004, as a condition of such probation or
4 conditional discharge or supervised community service, a fee of
5 $50 for each month of probation or conditional discharge
6 supervision or supervised community service ordered by the
7 court, unless after determining the inability of the person
8 sentenced to probation or conditional discharge or supervised
9 community service to pay the fee, the court assesses a lesser
10 fee. The court may not impose the fee on a minor who is made a
11 ward of the State under the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 while
12 the minor is in placement. The fee shall be imposed only upon
13 an offender who is actively supervised by the probation and
14 court services department. The fee shall be collected by the
15 clerk of the circuit court. The clerk of the circuit court
16 shall pay all monies collected from this fee to the county
17 treasurer for deposit in the probation and court services fund
18 under Section 15.1 of the Probation and Probation Officers Act.
19     A circuit court may not impose a probation fee under this
20 subsection (i) in excess of $25 per month unless: (1) the
21 circuit court has adopted, by administrative order issued by
22 the chief judge, a standard probation fee guide determining an
23 offender's ability to pay, under guidelines developed by the
24 Administrative Office of the Illinois Courts; and (2) the

2 designee, for services to crime victims and their families. Of
3 the amount collected as a probation fee, up to $5 of that fee
4 collected per month may be used to provide services to crime
5 victims and their families.
6     This amendatory Act of the 93rd General Assembly deletes
7 the $10 increase in the fee under this subsection that was
8 imposed by Public Act 93-616. This deletion is intended to
9 control over any other Act of the 93rd General Assembly that
10 retains or incorporates that fee increase.
11     (i-5) In addition to the fees imposed under subsection (i)
12 of this Section, in the case of an offender convicted of a
13 felony sex offense (as defined in the Sex Offender Management
14 Board Act) or an offense that the court or probation department
15 has determined to be sexually motivated (as defined in the Sex
16 Offender Management Board Act), the court or the probation
17 department shall assess additional fees to pay for all costs of
18 treatment, assessment, evaluation for risk and treatment, and
19 monitoring the offender, based on that offender's ability to
20 pay those costs either as they occur or under a payment plan.
21     (j) All fines and costs imposed under this Section for any
22 violation of Chapters 3, 4, 6, and 11 of the Illinois Vehicle
23 Code, or a similar provision of a local ordinance, and any

14 of this Section, in the case of an offender convicted of a
15 felony sex offense (as defined in the Sex Offender Management
16 Board Act) or an offense that the court or probation department
17 has determined to be sexually motivated (as defined in the Sex
18 Offender Management Board Act), the court or the probation
19 department shall assess additional fees to pay for all costs of
20 treatment, assessment, evaluation for risk and treatment, and

22 pay those costs either as they occur or under a payment plan.

10 intent to submit the real estate to this Act (notice of intent)

13 Such notice shall be given at least 30 days, and not more than
14 1 year prior to the recording of the declaration which submits
15 the real estate to this Act; and (ii) the developer executes
16 and acknowledges a certificate which shall be attached to and

18 developer, prior to the execution by him or his agent of any
19 agreement for the sale of a unit, has given a copy of the
20 notice of intent to all persons who were tenants of the
21 building located on the real estate on the date the notice of
22 intent was given.

1     the tenant permanently vacates the premises as a direct
2     result of non-renewal of his or her lease by the owner, and
3     the tenant's unit is converted to a condominium by the
4     filing of a declaration submitting a property to this Act
5     without having provided the required notice, then the owner
6     is liable to the tenant for the following:
7             (A) the tenant's actual moving expenses incurred
8         when moving from the subject property, not to exceed
9         $1,500;
10             (B) three month's rent at the subject property; and
11             (C) reasonable attorney's fees and court costs.

13 issuing the notice of intent, publish and deliver along with
14 such notice of intent, a schedule of selling prices for all
15 units subject to the condominium instruments and offer to sell
16 such unit to the current tenants, except for units to be
17 vacated for rehabilitation subsequent to such notice of intent.
18 Such offer shall not expire earlier than 30 days after receipt
19 of the offer by the current tenant, unless the tenant notifies
20 the developer in writing of his election not to purchase the
21 condominium unit.
22     (c) Any tenant who was a tenant as of the date of the
23 notice of intent and whose tenancy expires (other than for
24 cause) prior to the expiration of 120 days from the date on
25 which a copy of the notice of intent was given to the tenant
26 shall have the right to extend his tenancy on the same terms

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1739 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 and conditions and for the same rental until the expiration of
2 such 120 day period by the giving of written notice thereof to
3 the developer within 30 days of the date upon which a copy of
4 the notice of intent was given to the tenant by the developer.
5     (d) Each lessee in a conversion condominium shall be
6 informed by the developer at the time the notice of intent is
7 given whether his tenancy will be renewed or terminated upon
8 its expiration. If the tenancy is to be renewed, the tenant
9 shall be informed of all charges, rental or otherwise, in
10 connection with the new tenancy and the length of the term of
11 occupancy proposed in conjunction therewith.
12     (e) For a period of 120 days following his receipt of the
13 notice of intent, any tenant who was a tenant on the date the
14 notice of intent was given shall be given the right to purchase
15 his unit on substantially the same terms and conditions as set
16 forth in a duly executed contract to purchase the unit, which
17 contract shall conspicuously disclose the existence of, and
18 shall be subject to, the right of first refusal. The tenant may
19 exercise the right of first refusal by giving notice thereof to
20 the developer prior to the expiration of 30 days from the
21 giving of notice by the developer to the tenant of the
22 execution of the contract to purchase the unit. The tenant may
23 exercise such right of first refusal within 30 days from the
24 giving of notice by the developer of the execution of a
25 contract to purchase the unit, notwithstanding the expiration
26 of the 120 day period following the tenant's receipt of the

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1740 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 notice of intent, if such contract was executed prior to the
2 expiration of the 120 day period. The recording of the deed
3 conveying the unit to the purchaser which contains a statement
4 to the effect that the tenant of the unit either waived or
5 failed to exercise the right of first refusal or option or had
6 no right of first refusal or option with respect to the unit
7 shall extinguish any legal or equitable right or interest to
8 the possession or acquisition of the unit which the tenant may
9 have or claim with respect to the unit arising out of the right
10 of first refusal or option provided for in this Section. The
11 foregoing provision shall not affect any claim which the tenant
12 may have against the landlord for damages arising out of the
13 right of first refusal provided for in this Section.
14     (f) During the 30 day period after the giving of notice of
15 an executed contract in which the tenant may exercise the right
16 of first refusal, the developer shall grant to such tenant
17 access to any portion of the building to inspect any of its
18 features or systems and access to any reports, warranties, or
19 other documents in the possession of the developer which
20 reasonably pertain to the condition of the building. Such
21 access shall be subject to reasonable limitations, including as
22 to hours. The refusal of the developer to grant such access is
23 a business offense punishable by a fine of $500. Each refusal
24 to an individual lessee who is a potential purchaser is a
25 separate violation.
26     (g) Any notice provided for in this Section shall be deemed

 

 

SB2023 Enrolled - 1741 - LRB095 15537 NHT 41531 b

1 given when a written notice is delivered in person or mailed,
2 certified or registered mail, return receipt requested to the
3 party who is being given the notice.
4     (h) Prior to their initial sale, units offered for sale in
5 a conversion condominium and occupied by a tenant at the time
6 of the offer shall be shown to prospective purchasers only a
7 reasonable number of times and at appropriate hours. Units may
8 only be shown to prospective purchasers during the last 90 days
9 of any expiring tenancy.
10     (i) Any provision in any lease or other rental agreement,
11 or any termination of occupancy on account of condominium
12 conversion, not authorized herein, or contrary to or waiving
13 the foregoing provisions, shall be deemed to be void as against
14 public policy.
15     (j) A tenant is entitled to injunctive relief to enforce
16 the provisions of subsections (a) and (c) of this Section.
17     (k) A non-profit housing organization, suing on behalf of
18 an aggrieved tenant under this Section, may also recover
19 compensation for reasonable attorney's fees and court costs
20 necessary for filing such action.
21     (l) Nothing in this Section shall affect any provision in
22 any lease or rental agreement in effect before this Act becomes
23 law.
24     (m) Nothing in this amendatory Act of 1978 shall be
25 construed to imply that there was previously a requirement to
26 record the notice provided for in this Section.
