| 10 | | (f) the percentage of the taxpayer's total tax bill | 11 | | that is attributable to a ballot initiative or referendum. | 12 | | The county treasurer shall ensure that only those taxing | 13 | | districts in
which a parcel of property is located shall be | 14 | | listed on the bill for that
property.
| 15 | | In all counties the statement shall also provide:
| 16 | | (1) the property index number or other suitable | 17 | | description,
| 18 | | (2) the assessment of the property,
| 19 | | (3) the statutory amount of each homestead exemption | 20 | | applied to the property, | 21 | | (4) the assessed value of the property after | 22 | | application of all homestead exemptions, | 23 | | (5) the equalization factors imposed by the county and | 24 | | by the Department,

| 1 | | assessment.
| 2 | | In all counties which do not classify property for | 3 | | purposes of taxation, for
property on which a single family | 4 | | residence is situated the statement shall
also include a | 5 | | statement to reflect the fair cash value determined for the
| 6 | | property. In all counties which classify property for purposes | 7 | | of taxation in
accordance with Section 4 of Article IX of the | 8 | | Illinois Constitution, for

| 18 | | In counties which use the estimated or accelerated billing | 19 | | methods, these
statements shall only be provided with the | 20 | | final installment of taxes due. The
provisions of this Section | 21 | | create a mandatory statutory duty. They are not
merely | 22 | | directory or discretionary. The failure or neglect of the | 23 | | collector to
mail the bill, or the failure of the taxpayer to | 24 | | receive the bill, shall not
affect the validity of any tax, or | 25 | | the liability for the payment of any tax.
