| 1 | | designating municipality.
Upon certification of a River Edge | 2 | | Redevelopment Zone, the terms and provisions of the | 3 | | designating ordinance shall be in effect, and may not be | 4 | | amended or repealed except in accordance with Section 10-5.4. | 5 | | (c) A River Edge Redevelopment Zone shall be in effect for | 6 | | the period stated in the certificate, which shall in no event | 7 | | exceed 30 calendar years. Zones shall terminate at midnight of | 8 | | December 31 of the final calendar year of the certified term, | 9 | | except as provided in Section 10-5.4. | 10 | | (d) In calendar years 2006 and 2007, the Department may | 11 | | certify one pilot River Edge Redevelopment Zone in the City of | 12 | | East St. Louis, one pilot River Edge Redevelopment Zone in the | 13 | | City of Rockford, and one pilot River Edge Redevelopment Zone | 14 | | in the City of Aurora. | 15 | | In calendar year 2009, the Department may certify one | 16 | | pilot River Edge Redevelopment Zone in the City of Elgin. | 17 | | On or after the effective date of this amendatory Act of | 18 | | the 97th General Assembly, the Department may certify one | 19 | | additional pilot River Edge Redevelopment Zone in the City of | 20 | | Peoria. | 21 | | On or after the effective date of this amendatory Act of | 22 | | the 102nd General Assembly, the Department may certify one | 23 | | additional pilot River Edge Redevelopment Zone in the City of | 24 | | Joliet. | 25 | | Thereafter the Department may not certify any additional | 26 | | River Edge Redevelopment Zones, but may amend and rescind |

|
| 1 | | certifications of existing River Edge Redevelopment Zones in | 2 | | accordance with Section 10-5.4, except that no River Edge | 3 | | Redevelopment Zone may be extended on or after the effective | 4 | | date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly. Each | 5 | | River Edge Redevelopment Zone in existence on the effective | 6 | | date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly shall | 7 | | continue until its scheduled termination under this Act, | 8 | | unless the Zone is decertified sooner. At the time of its term | 9 | | expiration each River Edge Redevelopment Zone will become an | 10 | | open enterprise zone, available for the previously designated | 11 | | area or a different area to compete for designation as an | 12 | | enterprise zone. No preference for designation as a Zone will | 13 | | be given to the previously designated area. | 14 | | (e) A municipality in which a River Edge Redevelopment | 15 | | Zone has been certified must submit to the Department, within | 16 | | 60 days after the certification, a plan for encouraging the | 17 | | participation by minority persons, women, persons with | 18 | | disabilities, and veterans in the zone. The Department may | 19 | | assist the municipality in developing and implementing the | 20 | | plan. The terms "minority person", "woman", and "person with a | 21 | | disability" have the meanings set forth under Section 2 of the | 22 | | Business Enterprise for Minorities, Women, and Persons with | 23 | | Disabilities Act. "Veteran" means an Illinois resident who is | 24 | | a veteran as defined in subsection (h) of Section 1491 of Title | 25 | | 10 of the United States Code.
